Loved the Havana affair Bowl, especially the plantains , so yummy. I always get the fish tacos, so delicious . The vibes are always good here and I enjoy the nice breeze on the outside patio. 10/10 would recommend. read more

We like to stop in Oceanside for lunch when going to San Diego. We happened upon this little gem on our recent visit. The entire menu is plant based. The ingredients, including the bread, are all made by the owner. There is nice interior seating, and a nice covered patio. You order the food inside and the owner delivers the food. I had the Reuben..one of the better Reuben sandwiches I have had. I have loved Reuben Sandwiches since I was 10. The homemade bread was delicious as were all of the ingredients. I ordered the shoestring fries to go with. They had the perfect crunch with soft interior. My partner had the healthier Brazilian bowl, which came with fried plantains. He was very pleased with it. The service is quick and pleasant. The owner is very friendly and happy to chat about the restaurant. Cannot wait to eat here again on our next trip to SD. We may just drive to Oceanside for lunch; it would be worth it read more

Eris Food - Super Kali Burrito - Vegan Near Me - Oceanside, California

Eris is truly outstanding! Scott (owner) is an awesome guy and a natural at customer service. The food is always top notch and Eris has become my favorite restaurant in the greater San Diego area. I stop by every time I'm pass through Oceanside just to say hi to Scott and try whatever new experiment he's just perfected. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but if you're uncertain just ask Scott and he will happily guide you. The space itself is really fun. Feels like going to a friend's house to eat. Outdoor patio is great and the restaurant is very dog friendly. ​ read more

VEGAN FOOD YOUR DAD WILL LOVE. I walked to Eris food after getting off the Amtrak at Oceanside. The owner Scott greeted me with a smile and gregarious disposition. The inside is full of curios and the back patio is a wrought iron vibe fest. I had the Chicken Parm which Scott relayed is the most common contribution to five star reviews and happy customers. The Chicken Parm was delightful and accompanied by a generous serving of pasta, red sauce and bread. I ate it too quickly if we're being honest. This is the type of place you can bring any hungry stomach and they'll leave satisfied. You can tell that Scott is doing things true to his nature and I haven't been this satisfied with a random dining adventure in a long time. Stop by and have a bite to eat! read more

Enjoyed our couple visits here, and value the thought that has been put into the ingredients in the food. Met the Owner and talked for a while; he is unapologetically vegan, and stands behind his food. A couple came in, looked at the menu, and said "oh, we didn't know you were vegan"...his response, "it's not for everyone, have a nice day", and they left. If you're not willing to try something that's good for you, and better for the planet, there's no sense in wasting time talking about it. The prices are fair, and the food is delicious with good proportions. They do not offer water, only their specialty in house drinks and some drinks in the cooler. If you want water, bring it with ya. The ambiance is "old school deli" and the outside could use some cleaning as it seems untouched for a long time. Overall, love the food! read more

I am absolutely coming back to Eris soon! I had my first meal here yesterday with a friend around noon and I was immediately enamored with the decor. There is a variety of art covering the walls, beautiful wooden tables and seating, a tall shelf full of interesting books, and an outdoor seating area with flowers on each table. It felt like the perfect kind of safety and calmness you'd expect from a tucked away cafe or a library. We ordered two fragrant & sweet lavender lemonades, the Acapulco Pizza, and the Chikun Pesto Gyro. I had the Pizza and it was absolutely delicious. I can't decide what I liked the most about it. The toppings and sauce were savory and sweet, the crust was thick and perfectly toasted, and the serving size left me very satisfied. It was exactly what I was craving and exceeded my expectations. Scott took, made, and served us our order and he was very welcoming, friendly, and attentive. I really look forward to eating here again. Thank you very much Scott! read more

I'm afraid I have to reduce a star based on my second visit. I've craved the sweet potato tacos since my first visit but this trip they were seeping in oil. I tried hard to keep eating them but I just couldn't. My first experience having the tacos was nothing like this. I'll stick to the Havana bowl from now on. Or request no oil (if possible???) if I think about ordering the sweet potato tacos again. I did feel undervalued when I shared why I didn't want a togo box for my remaining taco...I stated it was too much oil, and the reply I got from the owner was, "my food isn't healthy." with a bit of unpleasant and snippy tone. I wasn't trying to be rude, but sincere in my personal experience with the dish... I know not everyone's palate is the same. I'm sorry he might not have liked my feedback, but the response and tone was not well received. Hopefully future visits will + another read more

Thank you Scott for the food and warm welcoming hospitality. My husband and I got the chicken parm and yippie ki yay burger. The portions were generous and flavorful. We got so full and took a lot of our dinner home. We were really impressed that everything on our plates was made from scratch. We sat outside and appreciated the succulent arrangements and creative hand painted planters. read more

The Philly Cheezesteak was absolutely delightful! I also tasted the Super Gyro and it was equally as good. The portions are a very good size and I have food left for dinner! The fries were tasty and that Hibiscus and Lavender Lemonade was super tasty. The customer service was good, too. The only recommendation is for the photos, paintings, to be dusted. There was hair on the tile minis. read more

This place is a gem! Scott the owner was so welcoming and helped us choose from the delicious variety of items his place has to offer. Aside from the variety the food is so well plated, with magnificent aromas, and most of all insane delectable flavors!!! I had the Chickn Parm and may I say that the portions were huge!!!! Scott said that vegan food is already expensive, it sucks when you pay that much and you're still hungry. So he makes everything from scratch and gives big portions! So I was full and had some left for the next day. You will not be disappointed! read more

A vegan restaurant with a five star rating had me curious, so I knew I couldn't pass through Oceanside without checking out Eris. Walked in and Scott, who turned out to be the owner, greeted me right away. He was having one of those genuinely warm conversations with a local customer that immediately told me what kind of place this was. Small town feel, nostalgic vibe, board games on the shelves, the whole thing. I let Scott know I was just passing through and asked what he'd recommend. He said the Bam Bam Burger without hesitation. He was right. That burger is the GOAT. Massive, well seasoned, and you could taste the love that went into it. Eris has absolutely earned that five star rating. Already counting down to my next trip through Oceanside to try more of the menu.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

OH MY GOD!!! One of the best meals I have had in a long time! The team there is so friendly and makes you feel like you are family right away! Such a fun and non-pretentious vibe with some incredible food that comes out so fresh. - Rueben (10/10, my favorite, so much diversity of flavor) - lasagna (9/10, great flavor!) - French dip (9/10, soo tasty and the au jus was great) - carne asada bowl (9.5/10 so much in the bowl and flavors packed a punch) - yippee Kay yay burger (8/10 really great, strong bbq flavor ) Can't wait to come back! read more

Tarzan made it a 10x experience from an already 10x experience. There are so many incredible options to choose from on this menu. I think we did a pretty damn good job though. The Not Chickn Gyro, Brutus Pizza, & the Triple Taco Platter was absolutely stellar. Along with the entrees, their vanilla bean ice cream, peach cobbler, chocolate cake, & root beer float were so tasty. Each dish had such unique flavor that made it stand out above almost any other restaurant that makes comfort food like this. I personally believe from a creative aspect, overall flavor & presentation (even the price) that the Chickn Gyro was the most incredible item on the menu! I can't wait to go back & order more of the Tacos. They make everything from scratch, including their cheeses & most impressively their Seitan; FROM SCRATCH! I don't even like Seitan, until now. Their sodas are tasty delicious & worth a try. The root beer & ginger soda was our favorite. Plenty of parking around the block & the service (provided by Tarzan) was some of the best service I've EVER experienced at any restaurant I've ever been too (this includes fine dining, cafes, diners, etcetera). Thank you Team Eris (look up the Greek Goddess Eris). Grateful for your space & delicious comfort food. read more

Being an aspiring vegan in the city of Oceanside is rather difficult, due to the lack of dining options. So I was excited when I found out about this hole in the wall called Eris food Co. Eris Food Co. is slinging some of the best vegan dishes you'll ever have west of the 5 Hwy in Oceanside, located on Wisconsin Ave on the corner of S Tremont St. Dine in an immersive & unique artsy interior and experience their fantastic service. Although there are only a few tables inside, they have an open space outdoor patio with plenty of tables and a peaceful ambience. They're great for enjoying healthy snacks, scrumptious pastries and vegan dishes. Because they were formerly located within a kombucha cafe, they carry many drink flavors & their food specials change daily. With an alternating menu that features flatbreads, lasagna, meatloaf, Mac n Cheese, burgers, tacos, ramen, sandwiches, rice bowls, salads and more, you're bound to discover some new favorite dishes. So next time you're looking for some delicious food, you should head down to the Eris Food Co. to experience how this establishment sets a great standard for vegan dining. read more

Simply wonderful. Amazing food - delicious and filling. Cool vibes - funky decor, good music, comfy seating, indoor and outdoor. Owner/Chef Scott is one of the nicest humans on the planet. On a scale of one to five, I rate Eris a ten. (Especially Scott's "chikn" parm special.) read more

Eris Food - Seoul Krusher Korean BBQ Burrito - amaaaaazing. - Vegan Near Me - Oceanside, California

Wow wow wow!! First and foremost I want to say a huge thank you to the owner, Scott. He went above and beyond to accommodate me. My fiancé thankfully doesn't have any allergies but unfortunately I do. Scott DOES have soy free options, but the oil for cooking does contain soy. I want to point this out for anyone else who like me has a legit soy allergy! That being said, Scott thanked me for bringing that to his attention when I asked about the oil and he said, "don't worry! We will make it work!" He ended up making me such a delicious and fresh bowl! It contained yams, avocado, rice and beans!! And he made a special sauce for it and handled everything in the kitchen for me to make sure it was safe and had no contact with soy! It was soooo good! I couldn't finish it all but he provided a box for me so I could take the rest back to our hotel! When I asked if I could pay for more yams, he said "you won't be paying! It's my gift to you!" Scott is what every business owner should be: kind, caring and dedicated. You can tell he takes pride in his business! From the moment we walked in we were welcomed with open arms. He politely introduced himself, asked our names and told us about his restaurant. He made us feel welcomed. Truly. He also didn't make me feel annoying for asking about allergens!! The fact he went above and beyond spoke volumes. He also said whenever we're back in town to call ahead of time and he'd personally get a safe oil for me. How sweet is that?!! Last but not least, I do want to say my fiancé tried both the Ruben sandwich and the chicken Parmesan. He loved both!! Thank you again, Scott. We wish you were located in LA... but when we visit again we'll definitely stop by! Other notes: - The ambiance is so nice. Very chill, stylish and homey - The bathroom is extremely clean - The seating is comfortable - There's artwork available to purchase! read more

Eris food is worth the trip to Oceanside on its own. A vegan restaurant with a wide variety of choices and a variety of styles. I have brought a friend with Alpha gal disease, and he said it was the first time he felt he could eat carne asada in over a decade, I've brought vegan friends who have said its one of the best vegan places they've been to in years. I have brought vegetable eschewing carnivores who didn't even realize the place was vegetarian. The ambiance of the place is pure California with a funky decor and a lovely outdoor area. In addition, Scott, the man who runs the place is friendly, talkative and makes you feel at home. I strongly recommend a visit. read more

Everything about Eris is 10/10. The warm welcome and good vibes, the ocean breeze and outdoor seating, but Oh ho ho the FOOD!!! I have had the sandwiches, tacos, the pizzas, the salad, and the chicken parm on repeat-- the cakes are out of this world and each time a new delicious surprise. Everything made on-site-- no packages or plastic anywhere. The portions are beyond generous (I one time got THREE meals from one chicken parm) and the service -- to say 'friendly' would be an understatement. Scott now knows my mom, my brother, my niece... and greets us by name. A plan for a perfect day: GO TO ERIS. Have lunch. Go for a walk at the beach. Come back and have cake. Drive home happy. read more

I don't know why I waited to so long to come to Eris Food Company, probably because I don't have many options for company. I was immediately greeted and welcomed by Scott, the fabulous owner who preps and makes all the food himself. He was cleaning and chopping up sweet potatoes when he asked what I wanted or do I need more time. Being ADHD and vegan and first time there, yes I needed more time. I am way too used to going out to eat at other restaurants and having only 1-2 options... so totally stoked the entire menu and restaurant is vegan!!!! I decided to get tbe fysh tacos and a lavender lemonade to eat there and a buffalo chickun pizza for later as a recommendation from Scott. My sister in law sat in covered patio that had cute seating, plants everywhere and a wonderful breeze being so close to the beach, it was walking distance. I could smell the aromas from the kitchen too, so that's always nice. The food was exceptionally fresh, crunchy and delicious. The sauce was exceptional and was tangy and a little bit of heat. They were decent size mini tacos and I didn't realize how hungry I was but totally housed them. Yum! Just before I paid, Scott presented me with my takeout pizza and showed me what it looked like. It smelled amazing and it looked artistic! Needless to say, I will be coming back soon and telling all my vegan friends about this place if they don't know about it. I'm also talking my picky family members, they did not like when I took them to the Plot which is about a mile or so away. I wasn't as impressed with the competition either. The plot was on the expensive side, but portion size doesn't match up and I left feeling hungry there. Scott gives you a coupon for a return visit, which I will definitely use. A million stars yes for Scott and his restaurant! Thank you for a wonderful experience and keeping vegans from starving! read more

We tried Eris for lunch today. Right upon walking in we were greeted by Scott. Not sure if that's how it always is there, but it was a super nice touch meeting a friendly owner who told us a little about the menu and what to expect. The restaurant is well-decorated, and it feels like a very unique place the moment you walk in. Definitely an interesting coffee shop style with chess boards and interesting books. I ordered the reuben and my wife had the monster fries. The portions were great, we shared each other's plates and still needed to take two to go boxes at the end. The rye bread my sandwich came on was some of the best I've ever had. Loved how many vegan options they provided and how from-scratch everything was. This will be a new regular spot for us. read more

I've been coming here since 2022, and as someone who's been vegan for over 10 years, this place really is such a gem to have nearby. I've tried a good portion of the menu, and some of my favorites are the Bam Bam Burger, Jughead Burger, carne asada bowl, and the monster chili dog. The fries are always so good, and the cold mac salad is a must The portions are generous and I almost always have leftovers, which I love. Even my non-vegan husband enjoys coming here, and we've recommended it to friends who have also really liked it Service has always been great, food usually comes out quickly, and the staff is consistently friendly and helpful The space itself has such an eclectic, laid-back vibe with tons of art and character, it's just a fun place to be Sometimes the sauce levels can be a little on the heavier side depending on the day, but the flavors are always really good The hibiscus lemonade is really refreshing, I'd just personally enjoy it even more with ice It's clear everything here comes from a lot of creativity and passion, and I really appreciate the care that goes into a menu that's entirely his own! read more

My wife and I stopped by Eris in Oceanside on 3/14 and absolutely loved it. The place is small but full of character -- local artists' work on the walls, pop culture decorations, and a really welcoming, community-forward vibe. The owner took our order and was incredibly friendly, helpful, and informative. He described all of the dishes and you can tell he genuinely loves his resturant and what he's doing there. At one point he mentioned that he's proud of the portions because he thinks a lot of vegan resturants tend to skimp a little. He was absolutely right to be proud. I had the French Dip and it was honestly one of the best sandwiches I've had. The stek was sliced thin and really tasty, the cheze in the sandwich was perfectly gooey (which is rare for plant based cheze), and the aujus was the real star. I've honestly had nothing like it before. It was also a really hearty portion and super filling. My wife had the Jambi sandwich -- a hash brown wafflle with fried chikun, sunflower swiss, seitan bakon between two pieces of french toast -- plus chili fries on the side. The sandwich itself was impressively big and definitely lived up to the owner's point about portions. We've both been vegan for about 10 years and always appreciate finding places doing creative food like this. We live about an hour and a half away, but we're already figuring out when we can make the trek back for another visit. read more

Scott is was very hospitable! Gosh, this food and service was so damn good! I took a non-vegan here that mostly eats southern food and they loved it! I was glad that this was very close to our hotel. It has a hole in the wall build, and might not be super obvious to others on what it is, but it is a great find! The food was excellent and I think this kitchen is doing really well by not trying to be like every other vegan restaurant in this space. The food is unique and the portion size is very good!!! Actually, love that they give great portion sizes along with great flavor and great service! I have been vegan for 10 years and is has been truly hard to find a vegan chicken parm that is this excellent! I wish I can find a way to bring all of this to Texas! I'm excited for the future of this business and hope it thrives and as well! Even if you're not vegan, I encourage you to go in and give it a try. Thank you so much! read more

I came here based on the high marks, but I'm genuinely surprised that this place has so many 5 star reviews because I didn't think food was good at all. I appreciate the friendly owner and that they make everything from scratch, but homemade doesn't always translate to tasty. The portions are really oversized. Additionally, the fake meat is too heavy, salty, and (to me) felt overcooked. I couldn't finish the sandwich I ordered because it was just too much. A bit disappointed because the place is not inexpensive. I don't mind spending money on good food but I really didn't enjoy my meal. I've been vegetarian my whole life and have been to many vegan restaurants in California and world wide. Unfortunately my experience at Eris food was my least favorite. read more

I've made a habit of bringing my family to Eris whenever I'm in town. The food is absolutely phenomenal. The owner, who makes everything from scratch, doubles as a welcoming, personable host, always willing to give top notch recommendations. The atmosphere is as carefully conceived as the menu. There's a children's library inside and art supplies and spare pieces of paper outside. I forgot paper and pencils to play flower pot (formerly hangman) with my kids, and didn't even have to ask for the supplies. They were already available. I can't recall ever having been to a restaurant that thought to do that. As far as specific dishes go, the Reuben and tacos are tremendous and are currently standing out to me because I just had them, but everything I've had there has been great. This is the kind of restaurant I wish we had in the South Bay Area. read more

What a gem! After a fun-filled day at Legoland, we decided to end the evening here, indulging ourselves! The portions were very generous and everything was presented beautifully! I love that they make their own cheese and faux meat substitutes. After our meal, I felt energized without feeling too heavy or full. I contribute that feeling to the food being made much healthier! The burger and pizza really hit the spot, and my kid loved his quesadilla. Our non-vegan friend devoured his gyro and forgot he was even at a vegan restaurant. He actually said, "I would offer you some but you don't eat meat." Bruh - really?! Glad he enjoyed it that much! Aside from the food, service was ok, as we did have to ask for our table inside to be cleaned - but it was done promptly; albeit, this was after deciding to move from outside to inside as it was windy and all the tables seemed to need a good wipe down. The outside area has a lot of potential to be something spectacular! The overall decor was a bit mismatched, but unique nonetheless! Parking is on the street, but we were able to find a spot, along the street to the side of restaurant. Moving from Cali to Las Vegas really allows you to appreciate parking lots dedicated to businesses with ample parking - because it's really not a thing in Cali. I am so glad I got to support this all vegan establishment! read more

If you're looking for incredible vegan food, do yourself a favor and visit Eris Food Company in Oceanside! My friend and I had lunch there yesterday, and it was hands down the best vegan meal either of us has ever had. The owner was absolutely wonderful--so welcoming and genuinely passionate about the food. He took the time to recommend dishes and made us feel like valued guests from the moment we walked in. I ordered the Yippee Burger, and my friend had the Havana Bowl. Both dishes were outstanding! The flavors were fresh, bold, and perfectly balanced. The homemade burger bun was exceptional and made the meal even more special. The portions were incredibly generous--we each ended up taking half of our meals home, which made today's lunch just as delicious! We also followed the owner's recommendation to try the hibiscus tea mixed with lemonade, and it was the perfect refreshing complement to our meal. From the amazing food and generous portions to the outstanding hospitality, Eris Food Company exceeded every expectation. We can't wait to come back and try more of the menu. Highly, highly recommended! read more
