Best Vegan Restaurants in San Diego
Hello all! These are my personal favorite vegan restaurants in the San Diego area. San Diego has a lot of great vegan options. I will say, there are mostly casual and there are few fine dining vegan restaurants here. Coming from the east coast, the west coast is generally more “health conscious” so finding vegan or gluten free options are quite easy. Most restaurants have at least a few vegan options here and almost all coffee shops have a non dairy milk option.
There are plenty more but, these are all vegan San Diego restaurants we frequent often. I have done a similar blog post featuring the best vegan restaurants in the Boston area - here.
