50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Normandy Park

“A friend recommended this place. The food was yummy, especially the crispy garlic chicken.“

“So delicious and very large portions! Servers are extremely hospitable as well!
The Black Pepper Fried Tofu was THE crispiest and juiciest tofu I've ever had, and I've had a lot of tofu as a vegetarian! Chili Lemongrass w. Rice Noodles had an ABUNDANT amount of vegetables, it was very nutritious and filling! My dad loved the Mongolian Beef with rice and my mom could NOT get enough of the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup! Pho Chay was slightly salty, so perhaps ask for it with less salt, but nonetheless full of flavor! And the dessert was sweet and perfect combo of hot and cold. Highly recommend :)“

“I have had several meals here and they were all delicious and fresh. The place is clean and never too busy to stop by for a bite. There are always a steady flow of to-go orders when we are there; the wait time is minimal and prices reasonable. Mahalo!“

“Great food and beer/cider list“

“Absolutely delicious teriyaki! We had the chicken teriyaki and a boba tea. Our server graciously asked if we could enjoy gyoza that comes with the teriyaki before bringing it out.
Cute, fun atmosphere and delicious food!
We’ll definitely be back.“

“Fast service for sit down and sooo good!“

“The food was just amazing! and the service? 5 star from Maki! She's amazing!“

“Your food and drinks are amazing! Had a burger with a BUN for the first time in a VERY long time! I'd pretty much given up on gluten free buns. The peach sour and the beer was delish! Felt so good to know I could eat anything on the menu and not worry about any cross contamination!“

“Such a wonderful healthy food oasis!“

“I had such a great experience at JOEY Southcenter due to our lovely server McKenna. She was patient although I am extremely indecisive and she helped me make some great choices!“

“Excelente service thank you 🙏“

“Authentic, fresh, and entirely delicious. The homemade cannelloni pasta noodles and filling were absolute perfection! Fantastic marinara! And the pizza… amazing. So much for leftovers! And I haven’t even mentioned the kindness of all of the staff. Can’t wait to come back to this gem!“

“Fun atmosphere and delicious food!“

“Sooooo happy to finally find an authentic Cambodian only restaurant near me! The papaya salad and skewers were amazing and beautifully plated, got my spicy fix today! Anytime I’m in Federal Way you’ll find me there!“

“Recommended by our shuttle driver who said we could easily share a meal. Very quick friendly service. Great food. Very large portions. Would highly recommend.“

“They have a Peaches & French Toast special that is out of this world delicious!!“

“I literally look forward to every day because of this place and am heartbroken when they are closed. They have opened my eyes to so much delicious food. All of it is prepared safely and with love. I highly recommend coming here.“

“What a wonderful experience! Super friendly staff and the Three Milk Cuban Flan was AMAZING.“

“Pesto cheese croissant Poppy seed coffee bread“

“This place is every best type of 90s nostalgia! As someone who vividly and fondly remembers physical record stores, being here warms my heart. And the cafe delivers great food with plenty of vegetarian options--for prices that seem to have barely changed since Nirvana played here!!“

“I have visited about three times now, and the staff are always really friendly, and I enjoy the funk atmosphere and music. The sandwiches are great and I love that they make the seitan themselves in house, or use soy curls rather than ultra-processed alternatives. I chose the rueben sandwich which was delicious! And they also have a wide range of alcoholic and non alcoholic cocktails, my friend and I both chose the non-alcoholic mimosa and it was so good. I have rated a 4 as the prices are a bit too high, my husband ordered 3 small street tacos and they cost 17dollars.“

“They were not super fast, but the food was worth the wait.“

“Superb food and staff! Excellent cocktail game and I love their Moroccan wines. Brothers Khalid and Aziz are top shelf people and owners. Every time we take guests there for the first time, they love it and often say it was one of their best meals ever! Get the harissa veggie, squid Steak and tenderloin for sure. Great specials always!“

“Excellent food and service“

“I know all restaurants can’t be like Wally’s, but I wish they could. Went on a Friday night while I was staying at SeaTac waiting for a flight and had a great experience. My server, Jammie, didn’t miss a beat. Clam chowder and Lingcod were perfect! The owner was walking around and talking to every table and making everyone feel welcomed and taken care of.“

“OMG! I just ate a Lilikói shortbread cookie. I found them at Uwajimaya. This is the best cookie ever!!!! Thank you Patrick’s!! 💜“

“The level of neoc beo in the broth is PREMIUM. It's like you can get covid immunity from a bowl of pho from here haha. Get the special combo pho - various cuts of beef. The grilled pork spring rolls are tastey too. My coworkers rave about how good this place is. Def a place to visit if you're a foodie.“

“ALL the food was delicious 😋“

“This is by far the best Indian restaurant I've ever been to in my life. I moved away and whenever I come back to visit we eat here. I dream about it literally. They are always generous, kind, and the food has never once been anything but top notch. Flavorful, spicy, just plain incredible.“

“So simple — yet so divine! 🥚
A soft-boiled egg may seem like the simplest thing in the world, but here it’s done to absolute perfection: tender, warm, with that perfect balance between silky yolk and gentle white. So simple, yet incredibly delicious — truly divine!

And the homemade bread… oh, that’s another story. Fresh, slightly crisp on the outside, soft and warm inside, served with real butter and honey — it’s pure taste hysteria! 🍞🍯 Every bite feels like a little piece of happiness you just don’t want to end.

This morning was unforgettable — pure comfort and flavor that brought me real joy. I left the café feeling grateful, and I know I’ll definitely be back. Because sometimes, the simplest things are what make life truly wonderful. 🌤️💛“

“We love the service, food, and atmosphere. We enjoyed two of this evening’s specials, the Lobster Ravioli with prawns and the Ribeye, both were over the top. Fernando and the Head Chef were both off this evening and the staff and food were as great as if they had been there. They all take their part in the restaurant very much to heart and it shows. Thank you for making Renton your first of many locations to come. Cheers!“

“We absolutely loved the food, the people, and the history - what an experience! Thank you for an unforgettable night!“

“Great food, friendly staff, clean. I love the tostadas.“

“Good food affordable and friendly staff …“

“Easily some of the best Filipino food in Seattle. Huge portions, fairly priced and amazing service. And the lumpia and pancit has mind blowing flavor. Cannot recommend enough-this is a can't miss food truck.“

“Lots of variety of pho - they have oxtail pho, which is hard to find these days. I like the type of pho noodle they use - it’s just a bit wider than regular pho noodles and has a little bit more of a chew. And looks fresher.
One thing to note though, their broth tastes pretty strongly of clove / star anise or something like that.“

“Entered skeptical and a little turned off by the price. Left having had one of the best sandwiches of my life.

Absolutely recommend dining in and eating while the burger and fries are as fresh as possible. Store is clean and atmosphere is pleasant.

Will absolutely be back.“

“the fried pork chops are amazing!“

“just now had the triple chocolate cake and a pineapple coconut, sooooo good!“

“We ordered the Bulgogi, Kalbi and chicken wings, everything was delicious. Even the banchan was so yummy! Service was excellent! Just a perfect little jewel in Kent!“

“Underrated Teriyaki and Korean food restaurant with easy take out. Best teriyaki on Rainier and perhaps in town. The only fault that it is closed on Sundays. Quite delicious food options. This is the place you want to go for a delicious meal.“

“Amazing service and food!“

“This was our first visit. I saw their menu and a few pics on line and decided to give it a try. This is a charming gem of a restaurant. Our bartender/server, Chloe was very nice and made fabulous looking drinks. I had wine but will try one of her cocktails next time. The food was so good! Can’t wait to go back.“

“Delicious food, came out hot and fresh in 7 minutes. Didn't once think I needed ketchup/hot sauce on the taters; they were full of flavor. Super friendly and welcoming staff.“

“We stopped by there last week for a meal. I had the fish goulash and it was delicious. Service was fine and the background music added a nice ambiance.“

“Worth stopping by before a fight back to a different state.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🌟“

“Went to Sunfish a couple days ago after watching a video rating it as the #1 fish and chips place in Seattle. Didn't disappoint! The gentleman who waited on me was polite and charming. The fish was the best I've had...light on breading, moist and flavorful. We went to Spuds the next day and no comparison! Sunfish was much better!“

“PHENOMINAL FOOD. Served hot. great desserts. A little noisy for me.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Homer on Beacon Hill is one of those places that immediately wraps you in warmth from the moment you walk up. The glowing yellow sign outside sets the tone — soft, inviting, and a little bit magical. Inside, it feels like stepping into someone’s family kitchen where modern design meets soulful comfort.

The ambiance is intimate but lively — thoughtfully designed with an open kitchen, glowing ovens, and seating that keeps you close to the action. It feels both upscale and deeply human. I believe there are two wood-fired ovens, which add to the cozy scent and visual energy. The bar seating is beautifully done, though it’s near the door where guests come in and out, so bring a light jacket if you plan to sit there. The space still feels incredibly warm and welcoming.

The staff move like a rhythm — attentive, intelligent, and graceful in motion. You can tell this place is designed with care: there’s even a wheelchair-accessible restroom, and the flow between spaces feels intentional. The walk-up window for self-serve soft-serve ice cream outside is such a clever touch.

We ordered a trio of spreads — classic hummus with chickpeas and cumin, smoky red pepper with mint and pomegranate, and creamy yogurt with roasted tomatoes and herbs. Every bite was balanced, fresh, and beautifully plated. The pita bread came straight from the fire oven, warm and pillowy, with that slight char that tells you it was made with love.

The cocktails were another highlight: a perfectly balanced Old Fashioned and a frothy Whiskey Sour that was so well-made it could easily compete with any high-end cocktail bar in the city. The flavors were elegant and layered, just like the atmosphere itself.

The music was nostalgic — the kind that makes you sway a little in your seat without even realizing it. The crowd felt connected, like everyone was collectively part of something special. It’s clear this restaurant was designed for experience, not just eating.

Homer captures what dining should feel like — intentional, soulful, and sensory. Everything from the lighting to the flavors to the flow of energy was in harmony. It’s rare to find a space that satisfies the body, mind, and spirit, but this one truly does.

✅ Highlights:
• Open kitchen with wood-fired ovens
• Exceptional cocktails (Old Fashioned + Whiskey Sour)
• Stunning hummus trio and hot pita
• Modern design with cozy, family-style warmth
• Wheelchair-accessible restroom
• Outdoor seating and a walk-up soft-serve window
• Great for date nights, solo dining, or small groups

💫 Tip: Sit at the bar if you love watching the chefs work their magic, but bring a light sweater for cooler nights.

This is one of those places that reminds you food is more than flavor — it’s connection, creativity, and care. Homer made me smile, sway, and feel deeply at home.
