the fries were underwhelming & the pad see ew had a little too much black pepper going on & I could taste the vegetable oil in the Pad See Ew. Overall, kinda disappointed with my experience today. So far, the Summer Rolls are my favorite thing on the menu, from the dishes I've tried. read more

This is one of our favorite restaurants and an amazing go-to if you're wanting take out! There's plenty of seating inside & out, the service is outstanding and there's lots of street parking. Some of our favorite dishes are the Beyond meat Burger, their Garlic & Dynamite fries and Drunken Noodles! Try this as soon as you can - you won't regret it! read more

3.5/5 Relatively large menu with fresh ingredients. Super friendly staff and cute place! The portobello fries were good but the sauce to mushroom ratio was off (more sauce please!) The magnum salad had too much kale for my Mr and the dressing was OK, we'd skip that next time. My tacos were OK, the tofu was fried and not super seasoned. The vegan cheesecake was also OK, I prefer fruity cheesecake to offset the sweet with tart, this one today was topped with toasted coconut - it was good! read more

Came here for the first time for lunch today. We were seated immediately. The waitress was very friendly, and everything we ordered came out correctly. Our drinks came very fast and we're delicious and a good size for the price. We got the Iced Mango Green Tea and the Pomegranate Aloe Vera Drink. The food arrived quickly as well. The garlic fries were yummy and not too garlicky. The gyoza was super tasty. The drumsticks had a little bit too much sauce, and we would have preferred if it was on the side, but the "chicken" was delicious. The restaurant has an adorable little patio and the decor inside is cute too. read more

Something Vegan is definitely something special. The menu is very diverse so pretty much no matter what food mood you're in, they've got you covered. On my most recent visit I got two of my favorite things - "steak" tacos (you can pick the protein) and a crispy "chicken" sandwich (comes with fries). Because why not get two meals at once? The tacos are hard shell and come with some green salsa on the side - super yummy. And I pretty much inhaled the sandwich, I couldn't put it down. Sometimes vegan chicken can taste so bad but Something Vegan always hits. The restaurant is in such a cute area of Toluca Lake and it's usually not too hard to find street parking. Prices are not bad at all, especially for such delicious Vegan food. Service is always fast, even when it's busy. The decor and vibe make me feel so happy too. Plus, the staff is wonderful. I'll be back again and again. read more

Something Vegan is the spot to visit when you're super hungry but have no idea what you're craving. Per the name, they'll probably have SOMETHING that satisfies you! From chicken&pancakes, loaded nachos and a dynamic selection of Asian dishes (rice and noodles galore), this is the place to bring a group of friends who can't decide on what cuisine they want. In my case, I usually come here when I'm feeling picky. Which is most of the time... I visit quite frequently and I can say that it's a genuine struggle to get me to order something that isn't their tangy orange chicken. They just do it so well! The orange sauce is perfectly flavored but not overpoweringly sweet, and the crispy soy chicken they use is one of my favorite veg protein's I've ever tried. Now, I can't talk about this entree without mentioning my disdain for the fact that they charge extra for a side of rice ($2.00) when it feels like this should be included in the cost of the entree itself, but I'm not taking any stars off for this because this hangup has never prevented me from dining in at this spot. The food is just THAT good that I'm happy to accept this surcharge. But it is something worth noting. Dining here is super cozy, with a semi-small dining room but plenty of patio seating out front, and an ambiance that makes it a fun date night spot with plenty of people watching on Riverside Dr. And, parking is super easy on the sidestreet of N Clybourn Ave, making Something Vegan a delicious, stress free spot. No matter what you're in the mood for you'll find something you love here, I guarantee it! read more

1. The Heavenly Beef (2/5) had a jerky-like texture; after a while, it became impossible to continue eating because of how dry and tough it was. It was also a little too sweet for me and overseasoned. However, I did enjoy the veggies served with the beef. Like other reviewers, I think a sauce might have helped the texture and flavor. 2. The Coconut Soup (5/5) was amazing! It was creamy and lightly sweet, I would come back just to order it. The service was quick and our waitress was very helpful. read more

I'm biased to all vegan restaurants, but this place is great! The overall vibe inside is super inviting and they even have limited outside seating that's pretty peaceful as well. The menu contains a little bit of everything. I really enjoyed the Trio Taco! Very much looking forward to exploring more of the menu, but I would highly recommend for vegans or non vegans alike. read more

Needed a place to eat and hang out before flying out of Burbank airport and this place was incredible! We got the chicken and pancakes, fries with bacon and cheese, tangy orange chicken, crispy chicken sandwich, and cheesecake. Everything was soooooooo good and the staff were super friendly and accommodating for our two-year old. I particularly loved their house-made cheese for the fries. After several days at Disneyland and watching my omnivorous family eat pancakes/bacon/cheese every morning, it was great to get a big meal of comfort food for myself! read more

I've had something vegan many times and have almost tried the entire menu. Their pad Thai is superb, dynamite wings are a MUST, and you won't have any guilt enjoying the crispy chicken sandwich (which are my favorites and go-tos). Ironically the only pictures I have are 2/3 items listed, however definitely check this restaurant out Worth the try is also the carbonara!

I LOVE this place! My mom is not vegan and she talks about how good this vegan burger is! I have gotten take out and ate here many times and it's the same consistency of quality. I get the vegan burger with a gluten free bun and the bun is good quality not hard or falling part which I love and enjoy! The vegan cheese on the burger is great too it's nice and cheesy and melts which most vegan cheeses don't melt well. You have to get the ranch! Its delicious! It's so creamy and tastes like real ranch but even better! The food always is ready very fast when I'm at the restaurant it comes out within 10 minutes! The service is very good too everyone is friendly and professional and the place is always clean! This is a must try!! read more

Driving along Riverside looking for a place to grab a quick lunch and also find parking. Not always an easy proposition. I am not vegan, but I appreciate a place that can make tasty food with healthful ingredients. Throw in a parking space and I'm down. Something Vegan turned out to be totally the right choice. Taco trio with crispy tofu was bomb. Topped with what tastes like real cheese, made in-house from cashews. Nice people, good space - kismet! read more

I eat here often and love this place. It is vegan but you wouldn't know it they have meat substitutes that taste like meat. I usually just get their veggies though as I love vegetables. Their pad see ew is amazing. I will continue to frequent this restaurant read more

The food and service, amazing!! I don't eat onion and garlic and they were so helpful and accommodating. I found my new favorite vegan restaurant read more

I am so in love with this place!!! I've dined here countless of times with my boyfriend, my friends, my family, and would visit more often if I didn't live all the way in Orange County. I placed a pick up order today and they remembered me, they truly care about the whole dining experience here. I adore the service, am obsessed with the food (pretty yummy and generous portions), and love how cozy and intimate it is. Can't wait until I'm back in town again!!! read more

Perfect casual dining experience at this little-known gem. Delicious food (I actually drank the leftover homemade ranch it was so good lol), variety, calm quiet classical music, super friendly staff. Will return read more

We were at a hotel nearby and ordered takeout from here. The dynamite drumsticks were super spicy and flavorful, and the Caesar chikin wrap was delicious and very filling. Amazing vegan comfort food. read more

Service is very good, food is good. Will highly recommend this one. Parking is a little challenging

Righteous. The fresh spring rolls here are MASSIVE, packed with soba noodles, fresh crisp veggies and herbs and a crispy wonton roll that adds texture and sends the experience over the edge. Dare I say best spring rolls in town? This place is also proof that vegan dining doesn't have to be flavorless or boring. It can be PHENOMENAL. A phenomenon. It can be next level. From the coconut soup, to the noodle dishes, these menu items will satiate you and fill you up without being heavy...ALL BEING PLANT BASED. Come here. The place is a godsend. God's gift to humanity. read more

I came for lunch and got the crispy chicken sandwhich with fries. It was really good the patty was delicious and a good texture. I'm no longer vegan/vegetarian but I appreciate having this type of meal option. The service was really good our waitress was kind and attentive. I will come back to try more also their outdoor patio is perfect for when the weather is nice. read more

Usually on most days I would be excited to give this place a 5 star rating, service is very quick and the ambiance is really chill, lowkey compared to the area but the last couple of times, it seems like they change their recipes. If you get the pad see ew, make sure to make it spicy! I got it with extra veggies and it turned out a big soggy and lacking of flavor on this visit. For almost $20 I was really missing the spice and they charge extra for most of their sauces, the sriracha just wasn't enough to make up the difference. Favorite menu item is usually the summer rolls, and their peanut sauce is fire! Their tea & drinks are also great, just missed the mark with this one. read more

Excellent plant based food for all types of vegans. Had a lovely whole food plant based salad and my teens enjoyed their plates of vegan meatball with spaghetti and heavenly beef. The portobello fries were excellent. Staff was helpful and service was great. As my husband said, "ten out of ten would recommend." read more

I come for their BOLD SALAD. It is amazing! It's a HUGE Salad. The dressing is light and delicious. They have zero issues with adding the dressing on the side. The crispy tofu that comes in the salad is perfectly crispy - not oily or dry. Everything works in this salad! Add an order of Dynamite Drumsticks, and you have the perfect meal! read more

I had an audition near by and saw this vegan spot! The coffee really hit the spot. The salad was MASSIVE! As much as a I ate, there was still more. It felt super nourishing and healthy. So you know I had to ruin that feeling by ordering the crispy quinoa rolls!! I actually took 3 to go and enjoyed them at the airport! I noticed many people that came in after me were enjoying the outdoor patio! The service here was super quick and very friendly. Everything was presented well and I will definitely be back when I'm in the area again. The menu was massive! read more

Something Vegan...something DELICIOUS. I can't wait to try everything on this menu. The menu is quite large but I accept the challenge & encourage many others to join. Excellent location with very cute outside patio seating. At night, they turn the stand warmers on. The inside seating is also very quirky & comfortable. We ordered the Orange Chicken, Drunken Noodles(w/beef), Jade Fried Rice(w/ fried tofu), Dynamite Drumsticks to-go & aloe pomegranates beverages (not pictured) When ordering entrees, you have options for your protein of choice: chicken sub, beef sub, tofu & a few others. Service was phenomenal. You didn't feel bothered by anyone coming up to the table too often yet you also were not ignored. We were so happy about this find! read more

WOW! This is a delicious spot, whether or not you need a vegan meal. My sister has been coming to Something Vegan for a couple of years now and after much hype, we came in for a weekday lunch! ~ Location, Ambiance and Service ~ They are located right on Riverside, so parking is easier on the surrounding side streets. They have several outdoor tables, most of which are covered, and a decent sized indoor dining space. We took a table by the window inside and were immediately greeted by our server who brought menus and asked if we wanted anything to drink other than water. Our server was attentive and helpful, and gave some great recommendations on popular dishes to order. There were several to-go pick ups while we were there, and they seemed to have a steady turnover throughout lunch. The overall ambiance is simple, quiet, and definitely no frills. They also have a gender neutral restroom for customers which was very clean! ~ Drink ~ * Thai Iced Tea $5: Classic and refreshing! A great beverage to pair with anything on the menu! ~ Food ~ * Crispy Quinoa Rolls (4; Organic quinoa, taro with oriental dipping sauce) $9: These were perfect to split; they are STUFFED with quinoa and the dipping sauce was exceptionally good. Pro Tip: order a second side of the sauce because you will want it for every bite. * Pad See Ew (Flat noodle, bokchoy, broccoli, carrots, sweet soy sauce; choice of organic tofu, soy chicken, soy steak) $15: I LOVE traditional Pad See Ew, so I was excited to try a fully vegan version. You get a choice of protein (tofu, soy chicken, soy steak; soy shrimp +$2); I opted to try the soy chicken which was well seasoned and cooked perfectly. It had so much more flavor than actual chicken! The portion size was substantial, and you really get your money's-worth both in flavor and quality. Highly recommend stopping by this gem when you're in Toluca Lake for a satisfying and healthy meal! Looking forward to coming back when I'm in the area! Instagram: @waitingtoeat read more

I've passed Something Vegan many times as Patys across the street is a solid spot I've hit a handful of times. I was in the area and feeling like keeping it light , not to mention a hankering for some Pad Thai which was on the menu. Speaking of the menu , very diverse, and you can get yourself an assortment of vegan Thai dishes to portobello burgers, tacos you name it. Great outdoor and indoor seating, but parking may be a bit tough. You order at the counter, then they seat you , I elected outside, placed my order and shortly there after out comes your food. I went with 2 standards I try at any Thai spot, beit vegan or not. Tom Khar aka coconut soup , and Pad Thai. The Tom Kha was exquisite and of the best I've had, and I don't say that lightly. A generous bowl filled with mushrooms , a few sweet peppers , organic tofu , lemon grass , and lime I would come back just for this soup. The Pad Thai - bit on the sweet side and I ordered it level 5 spicy ( 1-5 ) organic tofu once again but soy chicken, soy beef , Mock shrimp also available. Tofu was fried to perfection with a nice chew , ample perfectly cooked noodles, bean sprouts, peanuts , carrots etc I'd say a dash of soy or salt would have really brought it together nicely but still a tasty dish. Washed it all down with a really good Thai iced tea ... way to go Something Vegan this guy will keep coming back! read more

I was literally looking for literally, something vegan to eat with a vegan friend and stumbled upon this place. We ordered delivery and got a variety of dishes, orange chicken, chicken satay, beef curry with coconut rice and pad see ew. Everything was delicious, even to the meat eaters in the group. The fake meat was absolutely passable as meat, and the coconut rice was surprisingly full of flavor. I did not miss meat with this meal. read more

This is me and my partner's go to spot for ordering to go (Vibes are great indoors too)! They're always accommodating of allergies. I always order the chicken satae since that was something I would eat growing up as a kid and missed a lot being vegetarian for the past decade. Highly recommend the chicken wrap too! read more

Really good vegan food. They do the Asian style food the best, but their Impossible Burger is really tasty!

A great, casual vegan spot. They seem to have great business as their to-go pickup was flooded, but that didn't keep us from getting seated or having quick service. The staff was quick but kind. We appreciate everyone working. I wasn't feeling too hungry, so I just got Miso soup and dumplings as an appetizer, and my boyfriend ordered the Chicken & Pancake! It was all wonderful, 10/10 all around. I'd love to come big with a bigger appetizer and try some of their noodle dishes or Portobello Fries, as I see those are pretty popular. All in all, we will be back !! Thank you always read more

Came here for lunch and started off with the portobello fries. Omg the breading on those portobello mushrooms is to die for. It is so good and looks just like the fried chicken in kdramas they always have product placement for. So now I won't feel like I'm missing out anymore. Next we got the heavenly beef and jade fried rice as mains. The server had suggested ordering plain rice with the heavenly beef but we found that the (veggie) beef was not actually that salty and was good on its own. The jade fried rice was really flavorful on its own (nice and basil-y) and was great with the soy chicken. I wish there was more soy chicken though. We also got the Vietnamese coffee (too sweet and bitter) and the Thai ice tea (also a little too sweet). Great outdoor seating (though seating in the shade is a bit limited). Street parking only. read more

Been wanting to come here for awhile, as this place is quite far. We finally paid the establishment a visit and was not disappointed. Seeing from the photos we really wanted to try the portobello mushrooms. So we did. We ordered the mushrooms as well as the bacon fries. It was better than I expected. The flavor was there and it was supper tasty. Not too much not too little, just right. Came here late in the night and the owner was very welcoming, had great service, accommodated our needs and even brought us water while we waited for our togo order. Friendly service, engaged in a short but sweet conversation. I am big on service and I had no complaints. Best of all the food always amazing! The place even had fresh carnations for decor. Some details we notice--that speaks effort. Will definitely be coming back here to support the business! read more
