50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Pasadena

“I'm here just about every other weekend to get takeout for the family. The Indian flavors really come through in an exciting way. The rotisserie chicken is one of the best I've found in LA, and it's not even the best chicken on the menu. Anything with beans are a must-have.“

“Had to stop by my favorite Italian grubbin in the heart of Old Town Pasadena all the way from Boise. This was my 3rd time and each time just keeps getting better; definitely the bigger the party, the better. We paid $225 for 4 pasta entrees, 3 appetizers, & 2 glasses of wine for a party of 6. I’ve learned to like my pastas al dente after having them here. The meatballs are banging, the wine-pairing was delightful. Our service was attentive and pleasant; the vibe is always vibrant and homey. Highly recommended.“

“Loved it! Excellent luleh kebab! Will definitely go back again!“

“Really wonderful place I stumbled upon, I enjoyed their happy hour specials, great customer service and delicious food. I had a good experience here and the food was amazing and there were so many different options of everything to choose from. Thank you for a great evening and first day in Pasadena.“

“Bit of a long wait but we expect that on a Sunday morning. All family members, including kids, cleaned their plates. My veggie omelette was solid. Reminded me of an omelette bar! But the real star of the show was the hashbrowns. I’ll be thinking about them for the rest of the week lol. Our server was very nice. Honestly, all staff were friendly. We’ll be back. Oh, and my kids both highly recommend the chocolate chip pancakes! 😌“

“Great place for Korean BBQ“

“I love the food here. Everything was delicious. We ordered the bread and butter, the kale salad, the clams and mussels, and spaghetti. The spaghetti noodles are made in-house. The butter is made in-house. The kale salad was soo good. The clams and mussels were in a very delicious sauce. We will be back!“

“The asparagus fries. Crispy & not greasy. You can appreciate the asparagus flavor. We split the Thai spicy salad. It was spicy, but the Thai basil & the peanut dressing were the stars. It didn't need the chicken. The best was the ribeye melt. The meat was cooked perfectly.The sourdough was crusted with parmesan. With a side of horseradish that was perfectly paired for this sandwich.“

“We weren't in the mood for hotpot on a warm Sunday so we were relieved to find out that this place has a great selection of skewered meat. There were also free snacks upfront. What a great find and the waitstaff made it even greater.“

“SUGARFISH in Pasadena was excellent as always. Every dish was fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared, but what really stood out was the exceptional service. The team went above and beyond to address and resolve an issue with a birthday club meal, and they handled it with genuine care and professionalism.

We came on a Monday at 12 pm and there was zero wait, which made the experience even better. Great food, outstanding service, and a consistently wonderful experience. Highly recommend!“

“Excelente comida y atención“

“Love their selections of foods not too much not less just right and not complicated. My tummy is full and happy soul 😊“

“Excellent customer service and food!“

“Entre Nous never disappoints. Co-owner Mathias is a most gracious host who ensures service is attentive and will help you select the ideal wine to complement your meal. Co-owner & chef JC runs a tight kitchen. Every plate is expertly prepared and arrives at your table as the chef intended.
The menu leans heavily on the owner's French background and is the closest thing to a true French bistro that you'll find in LA. Ingredients are of highest quality. Mussels are plump, beef (bœuf) is nicely marbled and flavorful, and the duck confit equally flavorful without be dry. Frites (fries) are the best I've had outside of Paris. They're perfectly seasoned and will arrive piping hot. Lastly, end your meal with the profiterole. Delicious.
The outdoor patio is cozy and wonderful even on a cool night.
Do yourself a favor and make a reservation today.“

“Great food �“

“My family and I frequent a lot of Mediterranean/Middle Eastern restaurants, whether it's a sit down restaurant or takeout--and Sahara might just be the best we've ever had!

We heard good things about Sahara and decided to check it out yesterday; and it exceeded expectations.

I had the beef kebab plate, while my mom and brother had the chicken kebab plate. We loved how they had complimentary snacks (olives, cheese, and cucumber) and also that the plate came with either soup or salad. The meat dishes were so flavorful and honestly the best we've had at any restaurant. They gave a lot of meat too; 8 pieces for each dish. The baba ghanoush was also great.

Last but not least, Mary, our server, was extremely pleasant and attentive. We can't wait to go back!“

“I ordered the Teriyaki Beef Hamburger. Which is the wrong thing to order when trying to eat on the road. This is a “eat at a table” burger. When I stopped to eat it, it was delicious and filling. You get plenty for what you paid. The gentleman taking orders was friendly and helpful; as I was a first time customer. This is a place to make as a regular for any local.“

“The service here is great. Very respectful and friendly waiters. The food is good. I like their selection of grass-fed meats and their delicious sides. Their salmon was also very tasty. It’s a nice restaurant to dine in while you’re staying at the Langham, or even if you’re in the Pasadena area.“

“I’ve walked by this place and it’s always busy. I stopped by today and had their yellow tail special roll which was great ! I also tried their blue crab roll which was okay.

The service was great and quick. I would return to try some of their other dishes.“

“Amazing!! Atmosphere was incredible, food was delicious and the wait staff impeccable!“

“I'm 1/3 through the menu trying different entrees. So far, every meal has been a tasty treat! The food is always hot, flavorful, colorful . . . and delish!😋“

“Salad Dressing is amazing. Parking is horrible. They said 10-15 for my order. 25 minutes and I got a $52 Parking Citation🤬🤬🤬🤬“

“Always an amazing time here. Been coming to this location for years now. Service is second to none and food is delicious.“

“My daughter took her dad here for father's day. It was a great vibe, we sat outdoors, they had tv so he could watch the word cup. The food and drink orders came out in pretty quickly. I had the wings in hot honey bbq, my husband had the meatball sub which came with fries and our daughter had a 10 inch pizza, which took longer but the freshness, flavor, and quality of the meal was there.“

“Authentic Japanese food! The chef was Japanese! Not fake Japanese restaurant. People are nice. 😊
Sushi was great! We had Kanpachi, halibut, amaebi, uni, engawa and oysters, agedashi.
Everything was delicious. they didn’t let me down. Thank you for nice dinner 🍽“

“The food was delicious. The environment was very pretty. The service was very nice. The food portions here are large so it is family style. We had plenty of food for both of us to enjoy for lunch the next day. The orange chicken was really good and had a bit of a crispness to each bite.“

“It's warm and friendly. 🥰“

“Best sushi on the West Side ❤️“

“The food is amazing. I highly recommend this bistro.“

“Best Mexican food I've ever had.The Chile Colorado is amazing. As great as the food is, the service is even better. Lourdes is a gem. She is the definition of great service. Friendly, attentive and knows the large menu very well. Look no further for than Amigos Restaurant for great Mexican food.“

“Great food and service. Loved the the rooftop dining!“

“A great bar located in the heart of Old Town, offering an exciting selection of specialty cocktails alongside all the classic drinks you’d expect. I highly recommend exploring their cocktail menu—there’s plenty to choose from, and the drinks are well-crafted.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t try the food because the kitchen had already closed by the time I arrived. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and lively without being overly noisy, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a drink with friends.

My only suggestion would be to add one or two more TVs opposite the bar area for a better viewing experience. Other than that, it’s a fantastic place—high five 🙌 for the cocktails!“

“I’ve been coming for years since they first opened! I grew up in Mexicali, Mexico known for its famous Chinese/Mexican food.
I was married to a Chinese Taiwanese woman & made a beautiful child. I’ve been to Asia and pride myself on being one of the most open minded foodies out there, I love high end experiences as well as street food alike. If the food is good the food is good!
However I do pay close attention to details & quality of ingredients and most importantly to be honest is the ability to feel welcomed & cared for in a place, Dans modern Chinese checks all the boxes for me, I’ve brought my Mexican grandma to this place the same way I’ve brought my foodie Asian friends- to me this place is consistent & service is always their focus, I know a few of the people by their name and they know mine. I may go months ar at a time without visiting yet I always feel like a local and most beloved customer. So thank you Dan modern Chinese!“

“We came on a Sunday, and it was nearly empty. We were able to order right away, and our food came out pretty quickly. We ordered the Caesar salad, baked mac and cheese, and a pepperoni pizza. Everything was delicious, and we really enjoyed our meal.“

“Amazing smoothies and bowls! Yummmmy! Cute shop with food and gift items as well!“

“Super friendly service and they always remember your face. With me they always remembers what I order. Way delicious sandwiches. Condiments and well drinks not to be rivaled. Smack in the middle of Pasadena near Sierra Madre on Colorado. Enjoy!“
