"Superfood Acai Bowl at Trilogy Sanctuary|Courtesy of Sanctuary. Trilogy Sanctuary is a yoga studio, as well as a café serving vegan fare. The menu offers smoothies, bowls, salads, soups, and desserts on top of heartier fare like vegan pasta and burgers."

"In a similar vein, this next eatery was founded as an ode to conscientious wellness. Although there is no food scientist to be championed here, you could order your meal with a side of nirvana. We’re talking yoga here."

"Upscale in decor but modest in price, Plumeria sits just at the very north end of Park Blvd. Featuring a menu based around South Asian cuisine, with an emphasis on Thai food, it’s the perfect place for a savory, spicy meal with menu items that eschew fish sauce and other animal products, save for an optional egg in a few instances. As with most South Asian food, Plumeria leans heavily on the spices, though these are adjustable to your taste."

"Located in University Heights, Plumeria offers a Thai-inspired menu of high-quality vegetarian and vegan foods (egg can be added to some dishes as an option). 4661 Park Blvd, San Diego, CA 92116 (7 miles away)http://www.myplumeria.com/. View this post on Instagram"

"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."

"Spacious restaurant, high ceilings plenty of distance between patrons and mask optional. Delicious, light food at a reasonable price. Tasty infused drin..."

"Established in 2009, Evolution is San Diego’s original vegan fast food outlet and the vegetarian’s answer to the universal fast food burger joint, including the drive-thru window. Following the successful formula of meat-centric burger joints, the restaurant has a menu of burgers, tacos, and wraps, including the gluten-free Evo Burger with either a black bean or house-made tempeh patty stacked with fresh lettuce, pickles, grilled onions, cheddar cheese, tomato, and a creamy Thousand Island dressing. Pair burgers with a side of chili cheese fries and organic shakes or smoothies."

"In addition to a drive-thru option, this restaurant offers grab-and-go goodies, a selection of raw foods, fresh smoothies and shakes, and more. Delicious desserts include cakes and pastries that rotate seasonally, along with the unique offering of a vegan soft-serve. 2965 Fifth Ave, San Diego, CA 92103 (6.3 miles away)https://www.evolutionfastfood.com/"

"Evolution offers all the convenience of a fast food restaurant, including a drive-thru, but serves an entirely vegetarian and vegan menu. That means burgers, sandwiches, tacos, fries, chicken tenders, smoothies, shakes, desserts, and even a few raw options. Everything is made in-house, and the containers and utensils are environmentally friendly."

"Taco lovers can revel in something new at all City Tacos locations!. The taqueria has introduced two new styles of tacos, Caseros Homestyle Tacos and Tacos Dorados, to its core menu with the return of outdoor dining. Caseros Homestyle Taco selections include Costilla de Res en Salsa Verde and Cochinita Pibil—slow cooked pulled pork in a traditional Mayan achiote sauce, pickled onions, served with a semi-spicy serrano habanero creamy green salsa."

"Located in trendy North Park, City Tacos is definitely the best hipster street taco spot!. This place is extremely innovative with their menu. You’ll end up ordering way too much food under the pretense of, “I just want to try it”."

"Das Seasons 52 ist eine moderne Grill und Wein-Bar, die eine saisonal wechselnde und vom Angebot regionaler Bauernmärkte inspirierte Speisekarte bietet.

"Jimbo Someck (yes, there really is a real guy behind the name) came to San Diego over 40 years ago. He started in the food business breaking down cardboard boxes. Jimbo opened his first store in 1984 in North Park (now sold) and has opened five San Diego stores since then; four of them here in North County: Carmel Valley, Escondido, Carlsbad, 4S Ranch."

"Located in Balboa Park, the Japanese Friendship Garden is a relaxing spot to spend an afternoon in San Diego. The garden was built to represent the friendship between San Diego and its sister city in Japan, Yokohama, and provides a unique and chilled out experience for visitors. Besides its zen atmosphere and impressive garden and architecture designs, the Japanese Friendship Garden hosts regular events throughout the year, such as yoga classes, meditation sessions, and the San Diego Sake Day."

"There is an extra fee to enter the Japanese Friendship Garden, which is an expression of friendship between San Diego and its sister city, Yokohama. There’s an upper and lower strolling path where you can see koi pond, landscaped gardens and a Zen garden viewing deck. It’s a very tranquil space."

"Feel the beauty of the waterfalls and greenery as you stroll the pathways of the Japanese Friendship Garden. Skip right past the entrance fee the third Tuesday of every month. As well, explore the Japanese rock garden and take in the current indoor display."

"Located in Balboa Park, this place deserves its own spot on my list of Instagrammable places in San Diego!. Cacti are super photo-worthy, and that San Diego sunshine will give you the perfect lighting for an epic photo. (PS. Check out this post on how to pose for Instagram photos!)"
