    Today we added the lemongrass chicken to our usual order and so glad we did! Wonderful gravy w perfectly spicy succulent protein. We also ordered the Vietnamese crepes and egg foo young. Support vegan local family businesses

    Mongolian Beef
    Kaitlyn M.

    This place had been on my list for a while, and was actually the first place I added to my local food list when moving. We finally tried it after I got a filling and needed some delicious soup, and it could not have been more perfect. Any vegetarian restaurant is a very big win for me, but I have to mention how much I appreciate the number of options, and also that they aren't all fried. Not eating meat it's typical for me to have one choice at a restaurant, so here I get to have it all. If I'm lucky enough to get a protein option, it's usually fried tofu, deep fried beans, etc. Here there are actual fake meat options without the fried aspect. I sincerely appreciate being able to get a healthy meal, and with protein (!!!) as a vegetarian. It is truly a difficult thing to find. I got the pho with all three types of fake meat. It came prepackaged to keep everything separate, warm, and crispy until the exact time of eating. The broth was insanely delicious! It can be hard to get such deep flavor from restaurant broth, especially vegetarian broth since restaurants rely on meat and bones to give all of the flavor. My boyfriend's mother is from Vietnam and makes us delicious pho, so for this to compare was astounding. My boyfriend got the Mongolian beef, which he said was better than the last 3 Mongolian beef's he's had lately that were made with real meat. It was very tasty. Lastly we got the ginger chicken to share. The bed of veggies had delicious carrots and zucchini- the tomatoes were silly but I ate around them. The actual ginger chicken was incredible. I would say it's a must order, but so is every item on the menu that we tried. My only regret here is not trying it sooner. I can't wait to taste so much more of the menu. We will be back time and time again!

    Vietnamese Sizzling Crepe
    Rosanne P.

    Visited Veggie Today over the weekend and I'm very grateful I can continue to get delicious Vietnamese/Asian vegan food in my area. This time I decided to dine in and meet a friend instead of get to-go like I normally do. Ordered the Foo Young as an appetizer, potato curry, sizzling crepe and rice claypot. Super delicious took home leftovers to eat the next day, since it was a lot of food for just the two of us. The curry was just as delicious the next day. Please let's continue to support Veggie Today, today, tomorrow and next week!

    Vegan pho
    Amanda K.

    I got a coupon in the mail for this place and was excited to see vegan pho as there used to be a place in SF that I loved and have never found anything nearby like it. So one day for lunch I drove over to order take out. While I waited for my food, there was some man who I think may have worked there sitting at a table talking very loudly on his phone. I was the only customer in the place so I understand before I arrived there was no one but it was still awkward. The pho itself traveled well home but the broth was lackluster. I may try it again another day to see if that was just a one off but sadly I don't know if I will make it back. I just didn't love it enough to go out of my way. I do love that there is a vegan option in town though!

    Mongolian Beef Lunch Special
    Sherry G.

    I organized a group lunch here because one of the members of that group recommended this place. We wanted to eat here at 12:30 PM on a Friday, so I called the night before to make a reservation for that time for somewhere between 7 to 9 people. They didn't take my name down, but that really didn't matter because there were maybe 2 to 3 other people there. In hindsight, I probably didn't need to make a reservation, but I preferred be on the safe side. I ordered a Thai Tea and decided to choose the vegan option. I also asked them if they could forgo the straw in my Thai tea, to which they replied that they don't even provide straws normally. I was flabbergasted. How do you do Thai tea without a straw? When the drink ultimately came, they had a long metal spoon in a tall milkshake glass, and there were fewer ice cubes than I normally see at other places. The drink was already pre-mixed, so I probably didn't have to stir it with the spoon, but I did it anyway (slightly slowed down by ice cubes, but totally worth it to to avoid single-use plastic). I also ordered the Mongolian Beef Lunch Special. The vegetables had a decent crunch, and the flavor was light but present. The "beef" tasted a little bit like bean curd mixed in with tofu & other items, so it had a slight rubbery texture. It definitely doesn't have the same meaty texture that animal beef does, but that is to be expected for most meat substitutes. For what it is, it's perfectly fine. Overall, this is a good quiet place for anyone that is looking for vegetarian and vegan options. They had pretty much all reusable foodware (though I don't think they really need paper placemats). My mind was absolutely blown by the way they skipped the straw for my Thai tea drink, so I would be happy to come back again in the future.

    Chow mein from above. Count em 4 vegan chicken pieces.
    Amelia T.

    I am pained to report that Veggie Today has declined in quality and value. There are better versions of this restaurant in Antioch, Oakland, Danville, SF. Today my potstickers were meagerly filled. I cut one open to confirm there was anything in it. Only a little cabbage. Then my entree (chow mein) was actually, truly, totally unseasoned. No soy sauce, nothing. I was shocked. Also, meagre proportion of vegan meat and veg compared to 60-70% unseasoned noodles- pic attached. $45 for two apps and an entree w tip. I wont be back.

    Island Saland--- this was delicious
    Phil D.

    Food was great. I'm a meat eater, and I enjoyed the food here. I especially liked the salt and pepper tofu- it was so good. Very friendly staff. Quiet and calm and clean restaurant. Plenty of parking. Yes! I'll be back

    Broccoli beef lunch special and sauces

    if you're in a pinch and cant read the whole review, here is the rundown: GO HERE! options for EVERYBODY, incredible food, wonderful vibe. I think this is my new favorite restaurant! Food, ambience, pricing, and service are ALL 10/10. Staff are very nice, welcoming, and kind. Leftovers and takeaway are packaged efficiently and well. The resturant itself is tidy, well maintained, clean, welcoming, and very cute. Cool chairs and unique decorations. Would be a wonderful place to host a get together or birthday party. Unique condiments and sauces come with many items. All ingredients are of high quality. The dishes here are very interesting and special, many dishes I have not seen or heard of before. Everything was good. I can be picky and sensitive so thats huge coming from me. Flavorful Thai tea comes in either soy or dairy option - I loved it. Very good and not watered down like some other places. Drumsticks were very unique and very fun to eat. So tasty and delicious, I seriously cannot imagine how much work is put into these intricate dishes. Incredible prices. The value for such hearty and healthy food cannot be beat. Love that there was SO many vegan options and the restaurant is fully vegetarian. I was heartbroken to see this place mostly empty. Please come support. You will not regret it. Best food my partner and I have had in years (vegan or otherwise!)

    Island salad with inedible tofu pieces
    Hannah M.

    Wanted to try this place since I hadn't been here in a couple years. Some of the menu items are similar to other vegan places I like so I wanted to try. Got takeout. And the island salad was not very good, the tofu that came in it was hard a a rock, thin little pieces that were inedible, see pic, I had to take out, so that was disappointing. Then the curry noodle soup I got was OK but not something I would order again. Overall sad it wasn't as good as I hoped, since I love vegan restaurants. I hope they can change somethings! And improve!

    Sweet and sour beef and salt and pepper shrimp
    Janetha D.

    Services was really good, drumsticks were yummy. Salt and pepper shrimp had a good taste, texture and crunch. The sweet and sour beef was just okay, not much flavor in the beef but the sauce was good. Ambiance was nice just wish they had some AC, the music they played was nice tho, modern pop/R&B. Overall it was good I would come back and try some of their other dishes

    Menu
    Waheto W.

    Exploring vegetarian diets so decided to try this spot out. Came on a Sunday around need and park round the block, easy and free. We were seated and menus brought ( only two people were working at the time). Pretty simple spot, mom and pop owner or small business. We were amazed how many options there were and honestly refreshing. We got their Thai tea and it was great and their egg roll came in pieces of 4. Our foods took a minute to come out but when they did we were happy with the portions. I had the curry and it was okay, came with a lot to offer and filled me up ( just felt like it was lacking something- but this could be my bias from being new to vegetarian dishes). My husband enjoyed the tamarind vegan beef and felt that it had a lot of flavour. Only thing he wished was it came with rice. All in all happy with the portions and options, and we would try again to taste different options. Prices were fair and matched the offerings. Only thing that threw us off was all the floaties in the water ( they didn't tell us if it was infused and thus the residue) so we just avoided it all together. Worth trying especially given the scare full fledged vegetarian restaurant in the area

    Inside the restaurant.
    Kev H.

    Service - quick service (15-20 mins for 3 items for a 5 pm order), and staff was friendly. But the sauce of the food they put in our plastic bag was spilling all over, so that was not ideal. Price - a bit pricey but I guess it is harder to cook vegan. So that was acceptable. Food - while the food generally tasted good, the flavor was just not as expected based on the name of the dish. Below is my review of what we ordered: - potatoes curry with vegan chicken: nothing about this dish tasted like curry. Instead, it tasted like ginger intensely. So beware if you don't like ginger. - caramelized vegan chicken: this seems like a random dish with primarily spinach and tomatoes being thrown into sweet sauce together with vegan chicken slices. Not my fave. - combination fried rice: rice was a bit hard (not fluffy). Flavor was kinda bland. I wouldn't order this again.

    Are any of the mock meats made of seitan/soy free?

    When are they opening up their indoor dining?

    They are already open for indoor dining

    Is dining in available now?

    yes :)

    When will they open for dine in?

    Yes :)

    Does this place deliver?

    Best guess - no. You'll most likely have to Doordash/GrubHub for delivery.

    Does anyone know if their fake meat contains gluten? A lot of the faux meats, while soy based, tend to add wheat gluten for texture.

    I'm pretty sure the meats are gluten based.

    This is my family go to spot when we don't want to drive San Jose and want Vietnamese food…read more Parking can be a hit or miss near the restaurant as it shares the lot with many other restaurants and shops around it. It may look small from the outside but the inside is spacious and clean. Service is always quick, friendly and awesome! The #47 Bun Bo Hue aka BBH ($13.99) is really good. It has a lot of noodles and meat like pork knuckle, pork blood, and slices of beef shanks. My parents usually take the leftover broth home and make another dish with ramen, the broth is that good! #31 Phi Dac Biet or Beef Pho Special ($13.50 or $14.50) is good. Has a lot of variety of different cuts of beef. The #45 Seafood Noodle Soup ($12.99 or $13.99) is decent. Comes with some shrimps but lots of fishballs and calamari/squid. I don't often get it unless I want soup. What I like best is the #52 Com Suon Nuong or Grilled Pork Chop over Rice ($13.25). it comes with some slaps of grilled pork chop, chopped lettuce, picked carrots and daikons, rice and a side of soup and fish sauce. This is my go to post-workout meal and it always hits the spot. They don't skimp on the pork chops either! If you add an egg roll and fried egg it is $15.25 but usually without the extra food, it is already more than enough.

    I have really enjoyed this place the last month. Their noodle soups really hit the spot on a cold…read morerainy day. I don't eat out often but when I do I will grab a noodle soup and some of their other items like their spring rolls with the peanut dipping sauce. I am not well versed in Vietnamese cuisine, so from a novice palette their food looks appetizing and tastes delicious.
