7 Best Vegan Restaurants in Murphys

“Run, don't walk to this restaurant!! Awesome food and service! If i could give it 6 stars I would! I had the Grilled Elk Tenderloin with prawns. It normally comes with mashed potatoes, but I don't care for them so they gladly substituted mushroom risotto. Also came with fresh sauteed veggies. The meat was cooked perfectly, soooo tender. Risotto was spot on! Veggies are veggies, but they were good too. A totally sublime meal. My friends were equally impressed with their food also. Others had salmon, chicken cordon bleu and a corned brisket special with a yummy sauce. I WILL be running back to eat here again and will tell all my friends!!“

“Our wedding was in Sonora, CA on 9/9/23. Anyone who was in the area that weekend should vividly remember the very powerful thunderstorm, which was not in the forecast, even the morning of. One of the 1,000+ lightning strikes knocked out all power in the county from before 5pm until 5am the next morning. How in the world did Skye and her staff pull off the service they provided for our 175 guests? There were no tents and the food service was set up outside. There were no lights outside because the generators were being used for DJ and bathrooms. The only lights inside were battery operated uplights rented from the DJ for ambiance or battery operated taper candles in the candelabra on the tables. Our guests were fed absolutely incredible, delicious food and served wine throughout the night. She pulled off a miracle. Additionally, we used her in-house baker for our cake. First of all, it was delicious. But then in a crazy coincidence, in order to match the invitations and website, we made the strange request for a kintsugi pattern on in the icing. The baker knocked it out of the park! Hilariously, most of the guests mistook the kintsugi to be lightning which matched the skies that night! We also had Skye and her team cater our rehearsal dinner with an incredible paella layout with a carrot cake dessert. It was so delicious! If you get married or want to cater a party anywhere in the vicinity of Lila & Sage's Murphy's, CA kitchen, don't even bother to look for any other caterer. I wish I had good photos of all the food but it was SO dark in the hall. Our guests were just blown away.“

“My kids love JoMa's. The salted caramel ice cream is the best.It's not cheap (spent 19.50 for three single scoops), but to be fair, I recently went to a chain ice cream store in San Jose and it was almost just as expensive. If you want cheap ice cream, eat at home.JoMa's is a fun place to stop if you're walking through town or playing at the creek.“

“Some restaurants balk when a large group rolls in. We showed up at just before they transitioned to a dinner service, but recieved excellent service none the less. The staff was amazing and went to great lengths to accommodate special diets in our group. Everyone said the food was delicious, and the desserts were also fantastic.I doubt I'll be back in Murphy any time soon, but if I am, I'll be sure to stop by again.Dietary restrictions: Staff went out of their way to make sure a dish could be made Gluten Free. They also were willing to accommodate a picky eater. There were several vegetarian options as well, including a veggie burger that was "much meatier than I expected".“

“The food was delicious, and the wait staff attentive and helpful. Their pho is truly outstanding. Their broth is the most flavorful I’ve ever tried. Everything was delicious though, and their walnut shrimp had the most perfectly steamed broccoli I’ve ever had.“

“This was our first time visiting this great town. We looked for a place to eat a good dinner and liked the look of this place. Once inside, we were greeted by Kelly. She sat us and we had a drink in our hand very shortly. The menu had quite a splendid selection and we Ordered a few entrees. Each choice was so tasty we ordered a few more to try. Kelly worked her tail off to keep us satisfied and we were. We recommend everyone stop by and dine there as well! Thank you Kelly and the staff! We'll be back!!“

“This is my quick, go to, restaurant in Murphys. I call and order ahead, especially if there is an event going on downtown. I feel it is reasonably priced. I know I personally wouldn't keep going to a restaurant for 15-20 years if I didn't like it and Firewood I do keep going back because it's great. My favorites are the fish tacos and the arugula/ prosciutto pizza. I've tried everything over the years and those are consistently delicious . The super nachos with carnitas are delicious too and great for sharing. My husband likes the burger and has been eating there since it's opening. It's not fancy but it's a good place to grab a bite then continue on your Murphys adventure.“
