The crispy chicken burger helped convert me to a vegetarian in my earlier days. I still rave about it. Love the ever changing menu with new surprises. Comfortable seating and amazing drinks. The matcha drink is heaven. Highly recommend! Bring your friends. read more

Vegan - this place has a variety of choices! Burgers, tacos, Chik sandwich and salads. Very clean with a lot of seating. Very nice staff all keeping busy. The food was very good. I went with the Bah Mi and mini buffalo wraps both excellent with major flavor in every bit. My daughter had the chicken sandwich, sprouts, tomato, avocado just packed with goodness and flavor. Left very satisfied 110%! Traveling on the road or a local this place not will not disappoint. read more

Oh Veggie Grill...how I love thee!! Everything is vegan and soooo tasty. I've been here (various locations) so many times and every time is a winner. The buffalo strips are the staple item I ALWAYS order. The sauce is delicious and the vegan ranch is something good enough to bathe in. Other faves are the masala bowl, fish tacos, nachos, lentil soup, burgers, kale Cesar salad, carrot cake, oh ummm ...I guess everything on the menu! Service is usually fast, the interior is clean, and the outside seating is a nice touch. When the weather is nice- as it usually is- we like to sit outside. It's no wonder that every time we are in this area on SoCal visits- we eat here. Keep doing what you're doing, Veggie Grill! read more

I recently had a chance to try more of the menu. Nachos - my fave! Sweet potato fries with the chipotle sauce - my go to! Lentil soup - my fave soup, and it's seasoned similar to chili. Very hearty. Buffalo chicken sandwich - good, but not spicy. Chicken fried steak with mac n cheese - delicious and the sauce is garlicky. Taco salad - It's OK. I like Mendocino Farms' version better. Carrot cake - sooooo mouthwatering! Pumpkin chocolate cake - meh. Belgian choc cake - OMG so good. Oat milk latte and cold brew - nothing special. read more

Ordered a kale and quinoa salad and they left out the quinoa, the beans, raisins, and peppers -.- read more

Really horrible service. Paid 3.03 for drink but they forgot to mention oh the drink is out and it won't be refilled. So just lost my money on the drink plus this place does not sell pop which is ridiculously stupid. My food looks like trash. It showed different thing on the menu in the app and what I got is completely different then what showed. Plus another issue is they don't accept apple pay but they would like you to use apple app store to order and on top of it they don't take apple credit card. Only reason why they would not take is so they can get all your mailing info including your email and phone number so you can be SPAMMED. I would not be surprised if they sell my info to all those ROBO callers. This place has this poor seduce then it could be but they ruined it for all the other locations since I would NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE GLOBALLY. Don't fill out their survey arrive it does ask for your personal info. read more

I used to come here all the time when I was in college and eating here recently with a good college friend of mine brought back so many memories! Their menu is a little different from what I remember and I was very surprised to find that they have ramen as one of their seasonal items. I ended up going with the king oyster 'scallop' plate and boy were those mushrooms ginormous and juicy - totally resembled scallops! This meal totally reminded me of how much I like having vegan meals every now and then. Might actually consider going for a drive just to get my vegan meal fix every so often! *for those with parking anxiety like me: it's located inside a plaza with plenty of parking read more

I love Veggie Grill and this location has almost the same quality as the other ones I've been to with one exception: extremely runny chipotle ranch. One of the best things about Veggie Grill is their sweetheart fries and chipotle ranch. I always order extra sauce on the side to dip my fries in. I did the same thing here and they did give me a huge cup of chipotle ranch but it was watered down so much that it wouldn't even stay on my fries once I dipped them. The chipotle flavor wasn't there, it was as if they're trying to save money by adding water to it. Other than that the food was good, I love their buffalo wings and lentil soup. Boyfriend got the beyond burger which tasted like an actual meaty cheeseburger (with slight textural differences) with sweetheart fries. The vegan ranch that comes with the buffalo wings is delicious and has the perfect consistency. Overall, I would probably still go back here just because it's the closest Veggie Grill location to me, but I hope they open more locations (or at least fix their chipotle ranch sauce). read more

I fell in love with this place. The menu had vegan crab cakes, and chicken sandwiches. Out of the two, I like the crabcakes better. (I was super happy to have then vegan!) It was really flavorful, and big enough to cut in half and share. They also had a horchata drink that I fell in love with. That's clearly a thing in LA I saw it everywhere and it was creamy coconutty and delicious. I would absolutely go back here and try everything else on the menu. read more

I had one of my first dates in 2028 here with my now husband. I was new to the area and since then Veggie Grill has been my go to. All during the pandemic lock downs we ordered here as a family of 4. I totally bring my non vegan friends here to eat with me. I love the nachos, buffalo chicken' wings and the Caesar Crunch Salad are my go tos. I am so happy they survived through these tough times. The customer service is amazing. There is always a very nice gentleman at the front that greets me even when I have a bad day and just want to grab a quick bite. He provides amazing service. Thank you. The young lady with the curly hair is amazing too. Thank you as well. read more

Staff is great and the food is amazing. We have been vegan for a few months and found this place. The "burgers" are fantastic- especially the one with the blue cheese crumbles. Nachos are also fire. Try it- I certainly will again. read more

I'm going to be extremely blunt and no sugar coat whatsoever. Someone gave me a gift card to here so that's why I'm here and I'm reporting back. Ordered the "buffalo wings", "southwest chicken sandwich", and "falafel salad" w/ Harrissa and hummus. Buffalo wings was extremely tangy and drenched with sauce. Ate it anyways, it wasn't bad at all. Southwest chicken sandwich honestly taste like jack in the box chicken sandwich lol. The bread looked like it was hard but it was actually soft. Lastly.... the Mediterranean dish. To be honest with you, the majority of the food is made out of soy base and plant. It's not bad at all but the price was too much. Don't think it's worth it for mediocre food to my opinion. Overall food was good, I'm not coming back, AND the price is too high for what it's worth. read more

Lots of variety for a vegan restaurant! This location has an extension called MasVeggie which has Mexican food alternatives. We ordered the the Mac and cheese (2/5) needed more salt and flavor, Carne Asada Burrito (4/5) flavorful, filling and good amount of avocado (Diablo salsa is definitely spicy but misses out on flavor), THE BEST PART THE SOUTHWESTERN NACHOS (10/5)! The nachos could stand with non vegan competitors and hold its own. Would definitely recommend this place! read more

My new favorite restaurant. We stumbled to this restaurant after deciding to reduce our animal protein intake and try to add more veggies in our daily diet. We ordered the masala bowl with "crab" cakes and beyond burger. Both were superb and definitely worth it. A must try for sure. The masala was definitely way better than any other places I've been to. The burger was so moist and full of flavor. Drinks was awesome as well. Ginger with hibiscus mix with mint and cucumber, perfect combo. It's next to Trader Joe's so you can walk around after eating. :). Parking was a breeze. The only downside is that this place is a bit pricey. But I guess it's worth it for an awesome healthy meal. read more

I don't give a five star review lightly. I've been on the fence about it, but with the qualification that while there are a lot of "fast food" aspects to Veggie Grill, as long as you keep in mind that your food will not come quickly, you can have a five-star experience here. It's got the "fast food vibe," and maybe the nutritional profile of fast food in terms of fat and salt, but the food is so superior to what you can get elsewhere for comparable price and convenience! This location has always treated me respectfully, made high-quality food for me, and --believe it or not-- I've been coming here for years and they have never made a single mistake on any of my orders. I can't say that about any other fast food place I've ever been to! My favorite strategy for pick-up is to come in, place my order, go next door to Trader Joe's and do my grocery shopping, put my groceries in the car, then come back into Veggie Grill and finish waiting for my order. It's a great place to come with a friend and dine in and you can have a nice leisurely discussion and meal and the food is delicious! The menu always has new seasonal things on it and always has the good old standbys like the Veggie Burger. Their fries are tops! I'm glad this is part of my repertoire of local restaurants. Thank you Veggie Grill! read more

Food is always great! Even thoe it seems like a low key "vegan fast food" their service is amazing! Really love this location of veggie grill, will see you guys when I return from Mexico! Ps. If you don't see an item on the menu ,just ask ,if they have it they'll make it for you :) read more

So let me start off by saying when we all want to eat cleaner and healthier we should not feel like the food level of fast and deliciousness should not waiver between cardboard and neverland. The mac and cheese was nondigestible, and I've got to say tasteless which leads me to believe the preparer of this timeless dish did not actually taste this horrible dish themselves. Now I treated others in the household to the Double burger, VG Classic and my choice Veggie Grill Burger. Now I might be missing something but the after a hefty Door Dash tab of over $ 70.31 I feel as though was was robbed nevertheless in good faith and for the dashes trouble I tipped as I always do. Back to the basic burger business - it was meh -- and it wasn't for the decent tomato and the works that actually matched the blandish burger I would've provided only one star. I'm left dazed and confused as to how a franchise like this would wallow in sub par mediocrity. I won't be visiting or ordering here again. read more

Veggie grill is one of the best vegetarian/ non-meat based restaurants. Everything I've tried so far has been delicious, it's hard to pick a favorite. They have a large menu variety, yummy lemonades, and an easy ordering process. My only drawback is that it's a little pricey, but you pay for great food of great quality, and this location had quite a nice seating area. If you're looking to get a little treat yourself meal, and love vegetarian food, it's a must have. read more

Veggie grill is basically one of the most well known vegan places in LA/OC. Sometimes it's great, sometimes it's eh. My recent experience left me uneager to come back, my dish was overly salty and the cashiers weren't very friendly. The food is good but there are better vegan spots nearby. Best plates I've had were the Santa Fe Chicken Sandwhich and the side of Mac and cheese. The sides are tiny, the drinks are great and the bathroom is sometimes clean. Would recommend if you want something quick. read more

I decided to give Veggie Grill another try. I ordered the Mando Nachos and to my surprise, was pretty good. The order came with an option of either grilled or crispy "chicken". I got my ordered to-go, which took about 5-7 minutes only. The "chicken" was tofu I think, and in the nachos had all the basic addends of a regular nachos. It had green onion, black beans, salsa, and avocado. The sauce however does have that "vegan" taste in my opinion. It didn't really bother me and tasted good nonetheless. A con would have to be the cost. It was $8.26 to be exact and the portion was super small. It's definitely worth a try, but I don't think it's worth the cost. Location is in a huge plaza which means plenty of parking. Workers were all very nice! read more

Been going to Veggie Grill (mainly in Long Beach) for a while, and I never posted about it! What?! So I am now. It's in the Long Beach Marketplace. Parking is plentiful, but it is a busy plaza. Right next to Trader Joe's, so shop AND eat! This time, I had the chickin' zucchini noodle soup, which was just the right amount for my mood. I also like their salads, and have tried many different ones. They always have a great selection, and usually have a good menu of seasonal options. For nutritional info, check their website. And, they have several options of drinks (see photo). I typically mix and match to make a arnold palmer of some type. Good local fast casual option. read more

The kimchi rice was authentic and the "beef" tasted so real along with the sweet potatoes and tomatoes! It just blends beautifully to your palate. The Reuben sandwich in rye bread brings out a tasty addition! Don't take my word for it! Try and enjoy what I am talkung about! Taste the great vegan food!

I stopped by on a Sunday at 11am, which is when Veggie Grill is supposed to open. The restaurant didn't open until about 11:05, which I thought was odd because a lot of restaurants usually open earlier vs. just stand around waiting until opening time. Not a big deal though. The reason I'm updating my review is because the quality of food has gone down while prices have increased. I tried the Nashville fried "chicken," which was $11.25, while my friend got the breakfast burrito for $11.95 with "chorizo." Both came with fries and tortilla chips. Probably 1/2 cup worth of fries and chips only. They tried to scatter it around the burger and burrito so the plate wouldn't look as empty, but it was. I don't think I eat a lot and tend to get full rather quickly, but left hungry still. At $12+ for a burger and fries, I expect the restaurant to be less stingy about the fries... I don't think I'll return. Goodbye Veggie Grill. It's been a great 6 years, but it's time we go our separate way. read more

I've been going to veggie for some time off and on. Last week I went for lunch ordered Buffalo Sliders and fries to go. Once I got home to have lunch I was disgustedly surprised with this large ball of hair in the crispy fries box that probably hit the flop and the cook scoop it back up. Needless to say I threw away the entire meal. I let veggie grill customer service know and apparently it must happen a lot because they didn't even apologize for this, they only refunded half of the meal. I will no longer be a veggie grill customer read more

I LOVE Veggie Grill! Everything is vegan, so it's nice to know I can eat anything here. They have salads, burgers, sandwiches, soups, desserts, nachos, buffalo wings, fried chicken, and so much more and it's all delicious and vegan. I can't pick a favorite dish. I have tried just about everything on the menu and love all of it. The soups are always great, the salads are always fresh and bursting with flavor and each item on their menu is well thought out. I have never been this happy to have a restaurant open! A location in Long Beach has been long overdue. This location is near PCH/Wesminster, next to Trader Joe's. If you are coming from OC on Westminster, turn left before PCH. If you are coming south on PCH from LB, turn left on Westminster, then right into the shopping center. Parking is free but the parking lot can get a little busy sometimes. read more

I've always been a big fan of Veggie Grill and I was really excited to check out the newest location in Long Beach. The location is perfect, right next to Trader Joe's off of PCH and 2nd. The layout is super cool. The staff is extremely friendly. I ordered the crispy chickin' plate with cauliflower-potato mash, porcini mushroom gravy, and rosemary steamed kale ($9.95). I have to say that I got a ginger flavor from my kale and no rosemary. Maybe my tastebuds were off last night. The chickin' was perfect with a crispy batter crust and the mashed potatoes were so good that I forgot that there was cauliflower in them. I really thought the mushroom gravy accompanied all the flavors nicely. I also ordered a beverage and drank the strawberry lemonade and organic teas all night. The drinks are so delicious! My plate was practically licked clean; it was so good. As for other bites, I tried the buffalo wings, chill out wings, and mac & cheese. I really enjoyed the wings. I've never been a fan of vegetarian mac & cheese so I didn't have more than a bite. The desserts were also fantastic. My favorite was the chocolate pudding parfait. The textures were great in that dessert. Veggie Grill is a great place to try out a completely vegetarian menu. You won't miss the meat, I promise! read more

I've ordered here a few times, and every time my food has been fresh, packed nicely and delicious. I usually use UberEats to order from here especially now during the pandemic. I love that they use sustainable packaging and make sure their bags are sealed upon delivery. The zucchini pesto noodles were amazing!! So light and had great flavor. I also ordered sweet potato fries and they give a big portion, enough for two. They're crispy and sweet. I will definitely continue to order from Veggie Grill since it never disappoints!! read more

Altogether, scrumptious! I like mint though I find the mint leaves can offset the other flavors in The Far East Bowl. I find the mint tastes best as a separate after bite than a portion of an initial bite. There is a creamy sweet sauce that tastes really good and the seeds are barely noticeable. The Far East Bowl is a somewhat soft meal, easy to chew. By the time I get to the Southwestern Nachos, I am pretty full, and, I appreciate soft Nachos now. Some might consider the Nachos "soggy." Yet, I find the portions of the Southwestern Nachos I can eat with a utensil more enjoyable than the crunchier portions I eat using my hands. I find the ingredients and flavors of the Southwestern Nachos mix very well and taste better with soft Nachos than hard Nachos, to me. Yet, if I am eating only Nachos with a salsa, I prefer my Nachos crunchier than soft. These meals travel well to be so enjoyable after about thirty minutes on the way via UberEats (from a driver wearing a mask). read more

My eyes were PROBABLY glistening as I entered Veggie Grill, the health nut eatery I've been wanting to visit for so long in Long Beach. Here I finally was, ready to embark in vegan/vegetarian, green, bunny food heaven. A part of my heart has found its home in Veggie Grill. Firstly, yes it is kind of pricy. I usually try to eat healthy at home and prepare my own meals for cost and time sake. HOWEVER! Even for a stingy asian like myself, I can't help but LOVE this place and their food. I got the Quinoa Power Salad. Cost vs portion size wise, the burger was a lot bigger than my bowl of salad, but I was actually surprised to find myself finish and feel full! The beautiful array of healthy fats like avocado and grains like quinoa just made it packed with awesome nutrition and energy that sustained me. Those ingredients are probably what made this dish more pricy, but I think it was reasonable. There was such a freshness to every ingredient and the flavor was light, citrus-y, and just right- not bland or overdone. I loved the kick of flavor too, I think I tasted a good amount of cilantro (some herb idk) and onions. My boyfriend got the Santa Fe Crispy Chickin' burger with fries, and I was reluctant to have him here because, well, he isn't quite the health nut foodie like me or was as excited ( I was probably OVERLY excited, though...). He came here to take me out though, and THANKFULLY, he really enjoyed his meal! The chickin' was good, and everything was very flavorful and wholesome. Of course, fries aren't the heathiest side, but it was freshly made and yummy. I tried some too and I got to say- not being biased, but you really can't tell too much that it isn't real meat. If my boyfriend who isn't used to vegan/vegetarian eateries approves, I think that's a winner! I also thought the atmosphere was casual, modern, and cute. The colors of warm green and orange pop and make you feel vibrant, as well as when you look at the amazing delicious green foods served around you. There is plenty of seating, and you order at the front so the food gets served to you. Food is also served VERY fast, was pleasantly surprised! Utensils, napkins, sauces/spices, water are all self-serve. I can't wait to try more of their dishes! I highly recommend you to try anything on the menu especially if you share the same heart as me :) read more
