One of my favorite vegan restaurants! If there is one in the area I usually stop. I also have DoorDashed when I’m staying in Orange County. I love their hamburgers. The one I had today was their steakhouse burger that had steak sauce and blue cheese, of course all vegan. It was very tasty. I also love their nachos. It doesn’t have that fake vegan cheese taste and there’s plenty of heat on these. The chips have a nice crunch that holds up with the sauce on it. My wife ordered the Ruben which I’ve had before and it is very tasty. Overall this is a great restaurant chain and if you are vegetarian or vegan I would highly recommend it.

I can’t get enough of veggie grill! One of my favourite vegan restaurants. The Mac and cheese is my favourite Mac n cheese anywhere. And I love the fountain lemonades too. Portions are generous. The restaurant is spacious with lots of seating

The far east bowl with grilled tempeh...next level. Appreciate the fresh herbs, it’s fulfilling and satisfying! Energizing, Organic. The to-go bowls are environmentally friendly. The team is so kind, warm, and welcoming to connect with. Thank you so much for the consistent joy filled experience here

Great food and friendly service!! I've visited a few times and the food and service have always been great. It's more of a fast food style option, similar to a cafe style where you order at the counter, they give you a number, and then bring you your food once it's ready.

I had a Korean bowl and it was great. Didn’t know vegetarian food could taste like this. Will have to incorporate this food in my diet more often.

Veggie Grill has the most delicious food - we've always left there happy - and full! The portions are generous, and everything has so much flavor. The menu has something for everyone, kids included. I tried their 'steak fajita quesadilla yesterday and it was amazing, and enough for 2. Highly recommend!!
