Best Vegan Restaurants in Spring Valley

"With a smoothie selection as expansive as its rooftop view of the Pacific Ocean, this yoga-studio-meets-all-day-eatery prides itself on organic and nourishing ingredients. Sit back with a plate of Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos and watch the aerial-silks class, or sign up for a yoga session and refuel with the Nourish Green Bowl afterward. It’s not just a restaurant, Trilogy is truly a vegan sanctuary."

"Kindred may be a vegan spot, but it certainly doesn't pull your average hippie shtick—in fact, it'll probably subvert everything you might have thought about non-meat eaters. For starters, it's loud—heavy metal is blasting—and the decor is punk rock-meets-French gothic, with a few feminine touches. Creative cocktails use funky ingredients ranging from rose water to green chili vodka and cold brew coffee; the $14 Chromostring, to wit, is crafted with three types of rum, coconut, cinnamon dust, charcoal, and various fruit juices."

"You’ll happily go vegan for a day at cocktail bar/restaurant KINDRED. This South Park eatery serves both awesome vegan cuisine and creative drinks—all in a beautiful, funky space. KINDRED offers dinner and drinks daily and brunch on weekends."

"The decor is so chic, & even if you’re not vegan, you will still love it (I am not vegan!!). They also have dinner & a popping bar situation with great cocktails, but personally their brunch is the main reason I go!. Location: South Park"

"Plumeria Vegetarian Restaurant is an upscale Thai and vegetarian restaurant at the end of Park Boulevard in University Heights that offers an outstanding vegan dining experience. Boasting a menu focused on South Asian cuisine with a particular focus on Thai flavors, the restaurant promises a culinary feast of dishes such as pumpkin curry in red curry sauce, mock chicken satay with peanut sauce, glass noodles with mixed vegetables and tofu, and petite flower-shaped crispy wonton cups. The environmentally-friendly restaurant also offers a dollar discount for to-go customers who bring their own food containers."

"University HeightsWhat you're getting: Fresh spring rolls ($4.95)Pleasantly chewy rice paper wrappers can barely contain the generous portion of fresh veggies, tofu, and rice noodles inside these seriously healthy yet totally delicious rolls. Two house-made sauces (peanut dip and pineapple sauce) sweeten the deal."

"Plumeria Vegetarian Restaurant serves high-quality vegan and vegetarian dishes of Thai classics. They use the finest ingredients to prepare the food. The freshest produce is locally sourced from trusted markets."

"Everyone knows that San Diego is BIG but to be honest until the past 10 years the food scene was pretty predictable with mainly big tourist restaurants and unknown and unmemorable neighborhood eateries. However this has changed with celebrity chefs opening up shop and local chefs feeding their neighborhoods. There are plenty to choose from but here are my top picks for the Best of the Rest in San Diego dining."

"Sipz Clairemont shares their passion through serving vegan versions of Asian dishes. They constantly promote compassion for animal welfare. The restaurant also encourages people to live a healthy lifestyle."

"Our famous chain of fish taco restaurants, Rubio’s, has a rather nice dine-in space here with beer and wine options. Ralph Rubio is a La Jollan. Local kids like the kids’ meal with a folded up quesadilla and churro."

"They have four different locations each week, including North Park and Hillcrest Farmers’ Market. It’s worth making the effort to figure out their schedule, considering the rich selection of vegan burritos, burgers, wraps, and bowls. All of their dishes are made to order, so it’s up to you to choose your favorite seasonings."

"Rollin Roots offers four mouthwatering entrees that are available as a sandwich, loaded fries or as a rice bowl to give their customers exactly what they want. From spicy to tangy flavors, founder Avonte Hartsfield makes sure the public can find something they can enjoy at his eatery. “I hope people can see how great tasting vegan food could be and how accessible it could be,” he said."

"It comes complete with cupcakes, frosting, sprinkles, spatulas and decorations for you to decorate your own unique cupcake treats at home."

"Cowboy Star has all the trimmings of an old-school steakhouse—rich wood interiors, (very) dim lighting, and starched white tablecloths. But the drinks are totally new-school, with creative spins on classics like margaritas (made with muddled green chiles) and Old Fashioneds (Benchmark bourbon, simple syrup, Fee Brothers bitters). A stiff cocktail is the perfect match for low-key bar bites like the grilled wagyu skewers and platters of fresh, sweet PNW oysters."

"640 Tenth Ave, San Diego, CA 92101(619) 450-5880Book Your Table for the Best Steak in Town Here$$$ | Steakhouse | Butcher Shop. For every person that says eating meat is inhumane, there are amazing places like Cowboy Star. Their entire concept revolves around serving humanely treated livestock and the freshest seafood with locally grown crops."

"Executive Chef Victor was very approachable, and the atmosphere is very comfortable. The food and flavors rival the best there is!"

"This Eddie V's location in the revitalized police headquarters is a big one. Occupying the space of the former courthouse, it sports a two-level interior including mixed woods, glass accents, a 20-foot wine wall, three private dining areas and a V Lounge with live jazz daily. The vibe is of an elegant steakhouse or supper club and a meal here is a splurge that very few people complain about."

"Don't be put off by the name, or that it is part of a small chain. This fine-dining restaurant at the Headquarters at Seaport in Downtown has...Read More"

"If you’re looking for a full-on, fine dining experience with elegant ambiance and sublime seafood, Eddie V’s is at your service."

"Normal Heights, TemeculaMariposa has been making all of its sorbets and ice creams at its Normal Heights location for the last 20 years. Stop by for favorites like Mexican chocolate or white chocolate raspberry ripple, or summery specialties that include watermelon sorbet and lime or lemon sherbet. How to order:Limited seating is available on a first-come basis."

"This well-loved family-run Adams Avenue shop has won a slew of awards and accolades for its ice cream over the last 20 years. Several rotating seasonal flavors — think lemon, watermelon sorbet, and peach during summer — are found alongside a long list of staples, including coconut almond fudge and Mexican chocolate."

"Ghirardelli’s old fashioned soda fountain in the Gaslamp offers shakes, malts, cones, and sundaes galore. My favorite is the salty yet sweet Butterscotch Hot Fudge Sundae. Dark chocolate lovers, however, will revel in three sundaes: Midnight Reverie, Mint Bliss, and Espresso Escape."

"This famous brand are best known for being purveyors of really high-end chocolate, but their ice cream is a hidden gem you should not ignore. They have some great flavours, but to come here and not have a cone with chocolate ice cream on it would be a travesty."

"Located in San Diego's historic Gaslamp Quarter, this dessert is as good as it gets. Ghirardelli has a long list chocolate-themed desserts that will all make your mouth water. This Cookie Bits Sundae is definitely one of their tastiest."
