Sad that this is the last location in the South Bay, given the atrocious parking situation at Santana Row. Excellent food - enjoyed tenders, a Beyond cheeseburger and a taco. Speedy service with a smile, and a chill diner ambience. Was thrilled to see five tables active on a random Tuesday night. They deserve our business! read more

I was searching for vegan food on Google maps and I came across Mas Veggies Vegan Taqueria. Haven't been, decided this is where I was going but SURPRISE! it's actually Veggie Grill. Parked in a nearby parking garage and there's several options at Santana Row. I walked towards the address, looked for Mas Veggies and found that it was Veggie Grill. Entered and had to use the restroom and was stopped because I wasn't a buying customer yet. So I explained I was going to use the restroom and then order. He was fine with it and that's what I did. Ordered and paid at a self service computer on the counter-- but you could order with a live person as well. Took a number and took it to a table. My order was brought to me. The guy even asked if I'd like a water cup. That was observant, thoughtful and nice. I had tacos and chik'n tenders. I've had the chik'n tenders before at a different location and this time was memorable-- better than I remember, would have again for sure. Tacos were good but if they weren't on the menu anymore, I wouldn't miss it. I did try to get one of the superfood smoothies and the very one I wanted was out. Of course. Good food, good service. read more

We were so excited when this Veggie Grill opened more than a decade ago (2012?), in part because I'm a lifelong vegetarian. At first the food was generally excellent and we enjoyed eating here frequently. Over time, sadly, this began to change. One of the low points occurred in May 2016 when a dead fly dropped out of my "Grilled Quinoa + Veg Burger" (see previously uploaded photo) as I was biting into it. We periodically returned, hoping that things would change for the better. Though there have been ups along with the downs, the general trend unfortunately has been in a definite downward direction. When we gave the restaurant another try yesterday, the avocado pieces on our tasteless kale salad were highly oxidized (dark spots prominently visible, as illustrated in the attached image). The tacos were soggy and the lettuce inside was wilted. The fries were dried out from being overcooked. Sorry to report that this was one of the most pathetic meals we've experienced at this restaurant--or any other, for that matter. Oh, well: at least there were no dead flies in our food. This is probably the last time we'll ever eat here. On a positive note, the guy at the cash register who took our order and brought the "food" to our table was very pleasant. We tipped him well. The star is for him. read more

I'm a long time Veggie Grill lover, but it's been awhile since I visited. I got my favorite crispy cauliflower and was surprised the portion is SO small now especially for $18! This order used to fill the box! read more

Unfortunately I wasn't the biggest fan of the vegan steak and the vegan steak taco. I loved the vegan fish tacos they paired it perfectly with the slaw on top! Where the self serving drinks are you should definitely try their strawberry lemonade it's 100% fresh and there's also different types of salsa in that area I really enjoyed trying them all. Although I wasn't a fan of the vegan steak I was trying to order more fish tacos but the manager I believe noticed something was wrong and gave me tacos of my choice since the vegan steak meal was expensive. I wasn't expecting him to be kind of enough to allow that and he made sure to see if we enjoyed it after! The style of the restaurant is pretty modern but there's lots of seating available! read more

I had a craving for a steak burrito and stopped by veggie grill on my way home from hot yoga. I was recently told I have high cholesterol so I'm trying to substitute when the option is available to me. I made the order online for pickup and sadly spent 20 minutes trying to figure out how to charge my car with blink as I usually use ChargePoint. The food was ready very quickly by the time I had parked so I expected it to be cold, but my burrito was still warm when I got there! There were 3 other groups dining when I got there, and most people doing to go orders. I got the steak asada burrito for its high protein content. I would say it's 10/10 for value but maybe 7/10 for flavor, definitely needs the hot sauces. I ate half of the burrito, and as I was finishing the last part where it's mostly just the tortilla it fell out of my hands. Staff came over immediately and asked if I wanted them to make me another taco hahaha. I appreciate it but there really wasn't too much left anyway. Super friendly workers, cheap and easy spot!! Highly recommend. I don't know when it was taken over by next level and I did notice a lot of the menu change, but I'm excited to try more things. read more

Arrived so hungry. The counter guy was so pleasant and helpful. We got two burgers, fries , sweet potato fries and drinks. Yum. So glad we took the time to get out of traffic and feed our tummies. Fast delicious and healthy goodness. read more

I tried something new the rancho fiesta bowl w Tex mex crumbles. It came with avocado, beach, crunchy bits, and rice. Overall is was a pretty hefty bowl and filled me up. One thing I hope get improvement is the app. I've had so many reward issues disappearing on my and the support help team is very unresponsive. After months of emailing you would be lucky to get a response and a positive resolution. read more

I was greeted by Herb and it was only him and two others working. For someone handling so many orders he was such a sweetheart! Super great service from him and the team. He was recommending me things to try and helping so many people out by himself. He deserves a raise! I'll def be coming back! read more

Santa Fe burger is my favorite here. Super crispy and perfect tasty bite! We also had tacos with fishless fillet which was good. Buddha Bowl was filling and had variety of flavors. The place wasn't crowded, however it feels a little dated. Definitely needs an upgrade in the decor. Service was good here. Overall I like the wide range of vegetarian options available here. read more

I stopped by today for lunch with my sweetheart. I personally love this restaurant, miss having one closer to SF, and wanted to take her there. We enjoyed the nachos with house made queso, avocado, Tex mex "meat", beans and jalapeños... delicious! Next we went full-in on the buffalo tenders, smothered and tossed in sauce with a side of ranch. Just spicy enough. Excited about it. We paired the food with their fountain iced tea and berry banana smoothie. Wow the smoothie hit the spot. I love the vibrant colors inside and the many booth options, super comfy seating. Every time I'm nearby I stop by for the buffalo tenders; they're the best. Alex was super friendly and helpful, greeting us as we entered. Great food, great service, comfy seating! read more

The service was amazing, but the food was not as expected. The salmon was a bit too "fake" for my liking and the task of the fishy ness was a bit much. The corn was very dry and did not have any seasoning. The potatoes were to mushy like mashed potato's. However the fish tacos made up for the inconvenience. We told the waiter that the dish was not as we expected and he made it right by giving us 3 free fish tacos on the house as an apology. The service was amazing and would go back for the fish tacos. read more

The lady working here was so caring and attentive. I came here around 9 PM and was seated immediately. I ordered their Crispy Chick'n sandwich and it was tasty! I ordered their carrot cake too and the flavor was nice. The carrot taste was strong. I like the vegan options in this store. They also added smoothie options in this store and will order them next time! Props because she was working here by herself that day. The store is pretty clean as well. read more

This is one of my go to order spots when I'm in town and it never disappoints. Sometimes you just want some classic American food without the meat and this place does it so well and for a good price. It also doordashes well which isn't always the case for burgers and fries read more

The Buffalo Bomber is actually the bomb! I crave this! The bun is this soft amazing texture. The fries are always so fresh and they go great dipped in the ranch and buffalo sauce. I've ventured away from my fav a few times and everything i've tried is delicious although I usually go back to the BB. Good prices and attentive and nice service. read more

Love Veggie Grill! So happy that the Santana Row location was spared during their restructuring which closed their Walnut Creek, Saratoga, and Marin locations. This location is the only one left in the bay area. The employees here are always friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is clean and well-lit. Their Buffalo tenders (or wings) are our go-to! They're always crispy, flavorful, and perfectly spicy. We always order this whenever we're at Veggie Grill. We order this so much that we know when they are experimenting with the recipe. I hope they keep this current recipe as it's the best we've had in the last several years. The Baja Fish Tacos are also a family favorite! They actually taste like real fish. These tacos are topped with a generous amount of slaw, cabbage, and pico de gallo. If we're feeling a sandwich, the Crispy Chik'n or Chik'n Bacon Ranch are our usuals. If you're just picking up a togo order, try your luck along Olin Ave. The curb there is for DoorDash or togo orders and cars are usually coming and going. read more

Veggie Grill makes hitting your protein goals easy, even on a plant-based menu! The Herb Chik'n tastes just like real chicken, and their roasted broccoli and carrots are absolutely delicious. The fresh mango was sweet and refreshing, and service was impressively quick. Healthy, flavorful, and satisfying--highly recommend! read more

I was surprised with all of the healthy options and substitutes for dietary restricted people here. They have a great variety of healthy salads, sandwiches, and vegan replacements here as far as chicken and beef. I'm surprised that there's only one location of this in the South Bay. I tried the far east Thai chicken bowl, and it had really good flavor. I was expecting sauces to mix in separately on the side, but I may had to specify that I didn't want my sauces mixed into the whole bowl already. I did an online pick up order and ran in to get it. There really isn't a quick 5 minute grab and go parking area since this is located literally in the center square with a bunch of other restaurants. I would hope to see more seasonal and limited time offers entree wise. read more

I took my grandparents here and we feasted! I opted for the truffle mac and the Caesar salad wrap. They got the fish tacos and the steak salad with a side of fries. My grandpa took one bite of his food and immediately said he would come back again - which is saying a lot for a man who isn't vegan and pretty picky about his food! The Caesar wrap was honestly better than I was expecting. It didn't come with too much dressing which would've made the wrap soggy and the portion was good as well. The Mac was very flavorful too but I prefer a thicker sauce. Overall, I would come back here again with family. read more

Went to the Santana Row Veggie grill. The place is hip and the vibe is cool. Not too sure about the burger. Placed an order for signature veggie burger, the burger didn't arrive for 25 mins which I felt was a bit excessive given there were not many people there (not sure about pick up orders). The burger finally arrived. It had no sauce or no juice, the burger, the bun everything was super dry! The cheese was melting weirdly. I did not like it at all! read more

This is the 2nd time I have ordered food from here to be delivered and both times they left something out of the order! This time it was the house-made peanut sauce, sesame seeds, & fresh herbs, in their Tofu Zen Bowl. Very dull & boring & bland w/o the sauce, seeds & fresh herbs! Will never order from here again! So disappointing!! Very small servings too for the cost! read more

A great spot for vegetarians. I visited this place for the first time with my daughter at Santana Row, and we loved it. We tried the Kimchi Steak Bowl and the Sonoran Bowl with smoky mushroom tacos. While the dishes were a bit light on salt, the portions were generous. They offer a wide variety of options, including burgers, sandwiches, bowls, salads, wraps, and healthy smoothies. We enjoyed all three dishes, and I'm excited to return and try more from their menu. You place your order at the counter and seat yourself, and they bring your food to your table. The decor is casual, and I highly recommend giving this place a try read more

If you're vegan or a vegetarian this is definitely the place for you. The far east chicken bowl is theeeee best, for a second you forget it's not chicken breast. Actually it's juicier than actual chicken breast! The Mac n cheese is good, the burgers are yummy, the sweet potato fries and fried cauliflower taste good. The only odd ball to me is their attempt at bacon. It's not that good to me but my husband likes it. read more

I've been looking around Santana Row to find something to eat and decided to try this place out. This restaurant serves vegan food and they fairly priced them. It seems to be averaged around $14 and that's not really bad. The place is nicely built and it's quite dark here and even quiet. Despite that, I tried tempeh for the first time and it tastes good. The bowl is big and for being priced almost $13. That's not really bad. The rest of the meal is healthy and delicious. Am looking forward to trying other food here especially the sandwiches! read more

The entire menu is vegan :) I got the tofu taco and Moroccan lentil soup. The former was light and the latter was full of flavor...almost reminded me of chili. I got the soup size as small which was pretty filling. The taco could have had more zang or flavor but I enjoyed it regardless. I love that their menu is very transparent about ingredients, calories, and protein! The tofu is also organic. it is super helpful. the chocolate cake here is also really good! read more

The staff at this location is always so kind, helpful, and enthusiastic. I love eating here because there is always somewhere to sit, even in the evenings it doesn't usually get too crowded which is great. The music is nice and not too loud, their drinks are surprisingly tasty, and everything I have tried here has always been delicious! I will say the portion size for this particular meal in the photo was a little on the smaller size for the price point, but the flavor was outstanding! I also love the new additions to the menu especially the tater tots!! So delicious. Definitely will be coming back, and thank you to the great workers at this Santana row location!! read more

I love the variety of food available here. The food is always consistent in terms of flavor.

There usually isn't too much of a wait at veggie grill, so we were able to quickly order and get a seat. Since Next Level acquired Veggie Grill, not much has changed. The menu is the same. The food slightly changed. I always get the far east bowl, and I noticed that the rice was a bit different. The broccoli was more cooked, which I like. But other than that, the far east bowl was pretty much the same and I quite enjoyed it. Sweet potato fries were also yummy as always. Overall, a nice healthy meal that always leaves me satisfied. read more

Veggie Grill is something I wish I had in my city. Consistent and quality vegan comfort food with tons of options. I get the Truffle Mac n Cheese, and love the Buffalo Blitz Wrap and tenders.

The new ownership has changed it slightly but it is still the best quick vegan food in the area. Have been to the restaurant and ordered delivery and had no issues with either. read more

I didn't catch the Manager's name, but it's the Latin guy. He is very rude and should honestly not be working there. Food was pretty good, but because of this manager's behavior and sarcasm to my child that had a couple questions on the menu we would not be eating there again we spent about 70 bucks on four meals and I wish I would've known how rude he was to my child when we were at the establishment. I didn't realize until I got home later and I asked my child what was wrong it's disgusting how people can be that rude and mean to kids, especially paying customers read more

Food is amazing. Vegan meals are the future. VG had so much going for it with rewards and birthday entrees and bonuses- until they didn't. Our latest experience was with a good guy, manager probably, but just treated us like we were so out of touch asking about a service you used as of late 2023. Didn't know we are supposed to automatically know what Silicon Valley app startups are teaming up with which every year. InKind doesn't do VG anymore. Fine. But VG emails were very persistent asking me to spend $100 and get $30 rewards back leaving me with a good amount to spend at VG and not able to visit regularly. Little would anyone know that your e-relationship has spoiled and I needed to spend that "never expires" money before it essentially expired. Or just became a "yeah we don't take that anymore." Sorry I've been vegan since before your staff was born and was at VG opening day a million years ago. Ferreal making me feel like I should stop being a vegan and a patron and trusting that the shit you used to do wasn't just a passing trend. read more
