Far East Thai
Misha M.

The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They had good outdoor seating plus lots of indoor tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You order in the front and they have your food brought to your table. Fast casual setup

Tofu Zen Bowl and Avocado Bacon Cobb salad
Stephanie B.

I bought five meals today, Southwest nachos, tofu, Zen bowl and avocado bacon Cobb salad x 3. I love each of these meals. I want to give a special shout out to the great service that I received today from the assistant manager to the two ladies that were making the food. They were very friendly and nice. The assistant manager even gave me suggestions on foods to try the next time I place an order.

Crispy Cauliflower
Emily E.

I'm a long time Veggie Grill lover, but it's been awhile since I visited. I got my favorite crispy cauliflower and was surprised the portion is SO small now especially for $18! This order used to fill the box!

Southwest Nachos
Breanna P.

Salad - YUM! Nachos - hit the spot! Enough toppings for every chip Veggie Chick'n Wings - fulfilled my Buffalo cravings. I wish there were more locations. The wide options of food is incredible and everything looked delish. Alex at the front was really helpful!

Unfortunately I wasn't the biggest fan of the vegan steak and the vegan steak taco. I loved the vegan fish tacos they paired it perfectly with the slaw on top! Where the self serving drinks are you should definitely try their strawberry lemonade it's 100% fresh and there's also different types of salsa in that area I really enjoyed trying them all. Although I wasn't a fan of the vegan steak I was trying to order more fish tacos but the manager I believe noticed something was wrong and gave me tacos of my choice since the vegan steak meal was expensive. I wasn't expecting him to be kind of enough to allow that and he made sure to see if we enjoyed it after! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The style of the restaurant is pretty modern but there's lots of seating available![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Buffalo Chik'N Tenders (7 pieces)
Amy C.

Nothing beats Veggie Grill and all their vegetarian and vegan comfort food. I have a difficult time choosing what to order because everything is delicious.

Tacos
Tejaswini L.

Santa Fe burger is my favorite here. Super crispy and perfect tasty bite! We also had tacos with fishless fillet which was good. Buddha Bowl was filling and had variety of flavors. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place wasn't crowded, however it feels a little dated. Definitely needs an upgrade in the decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was good here. Overall I like the wide range of vegetarian options available here.

I was searching for vegan food on Google maps and I came across Mas Veggies Vegan Taqueria. Haven't been, decided this is where I was going but SURPRISE! it's actually Veggie Grill. Parked in a nearby parking garage and there's several options at Santana Row. I walked towards the address, looked for Mas Veggies and found that it was Veggie Grill. Entered and had to use the restroom and was stopped because I wasn't a buying customer yet. So I explained I was going to use the restroom and then order. He was fine with it and that's what I did. Ordered and paid at a self service computer on the counter-- but you could order with a live person as well. Took a number and took it to a table. My order was brought to me. The guy even asked if I'd like a water cup. That was observant, thoughtful and nice. I had tacos and chik'n tenders. I've had the chik'n tenders before at a different location and this time was memorable-- better than I remember, would have again for sure. Tacos were good but if they weren't on the menu anymore, I wouldn't miss it. I did try to get one of the superfood smoothies and the very one I wanted was out. Of course. Good food, good service.

We love Veggie Grill and were bummed when the one closer to us closed! But it was worth it to order a delivery order from this location!

Great seating area
Blair P.

I stopped by today for lunch with my sweetheart. I personally love this restaurant, miss having one closer to SF, and wanted to take her there. We enjoyed the nachos with house made queso, avocado, Tex mex "meat", beans and jalapeños... delicious! Next we went full-in on the buffalo tenders, smothered and tossed in sauce with a side of ranch. Just spicy enough. Excited about it. We paired the food with their fountain iced tea and berry banana smoothie. Wow the smoothie hit the spot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love the vibrant colors inside and the many booth options, super comfy seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Every time I'm nearby I stop by for the buffalo tenders; they're the best. Alex was super friendly and helpful, greeting us as we entered. Great food, great service, comfy seating!

Crispy Chicken
Minh V.

The lady working here was so caring and attentive. I came here around 9 PM and was seated immediately. I ordered their Crispy Chick'n sandwich and it was tasty! I ordered their carrot cake too and the flavor was nice. The carrot taste was strong. I like the vegan options in this store. They also added smoothie options in this store and will order them next time! Props because she was working here by herself that day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The store is pretty clean as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Blackened/oxidized avocado pieces. Was the food preparer really thinking that we'd be going, "Oh, yummy!"
Dan B.

We were so excited when this Veggie Grill opened more than a decade ago (2012?), in part because I'm a lifelong vegetarian. At first the food was generally excellent and we enjoyed eating here frequently. Over time, sadly, this began to change. One of the low points occurred in May 2016 when a dead fly dropped out of my "Grilled Quinoa + Veg Burger" (see previously uploaded photo) as I was biting into it. We periodically returned, hoping that things would change for the better. Though there have been ups along with the downs, the general trend unfortunately has been in a definite downward direction. When we gave the restaurant another try yesterday, the avocado pieces on our tasteless kale salad were highly oxidized (dark spots prominently visible, as illustrated in the attached image). The tacos were soggy and the lettuce inside was wilted. The fries were dried out from being overcooked. Sorry to report that this was one of the most pathetic meals we've experienced at this restaurant--or any other, for that matter. Oh, well: at least there were no dead flies in our food. This is probably the last time we'll ever eat here. On a positive note, the guy at the cash register who took our order and brought the "food" to our table was very pleasant. We tipped him well. The star is for him.

Beyond™ Classic ChzBurger

Sad that this is the last location in the South Bay, given the atrocious parking situation at Santana Row. Excellent food - enjoyed tenders, a Beyond cheeseburger and a taco. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Speedy service with a smile, and a chill diner ambience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Was thrilled to see five tables active on a random Tuesday night.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They deserve our business!

This is the salmon with potatoes, and grilled corn

I was informed that the patio is open and to order using a QR code at one of the tables in the patio. You have to sign in and create an account to order. It took me a minute to order. I wanted to try their specialty dishes especially because they have mushroom dishes and soy protein dishes. But by the time I was able to figure out how to order and sign up, I was pressed for time to order a meal and ended up ordering crispy spring rolls. Once your order is placed, you wait for a text to let you know your order is ready. Then I have to pick up at the window. Spring rolls were okay. I really wanted to try the crispy oyster mushrooms or the lion mane mushroom dish. Or even the Sea Fruits plate but I wasn't going to have enough time to enjoy them. The patio was fine. A few picnic tables. You bus your own table at the end. Everything they used was biodegradable. I wish it was a better experience. The food looked delicious in pictures, but eating in an outdoor patio, ordering from a QR code, and picking up your food from the window made for a sad and sub par experience.

I got takeout this particular day and the stirfry I wanted they didn't have any more of that style, but the lady said there was a similar one that was better for takeout. I forget which one she recommended but I ordered that one as well as the mango salad and the Vegetarian Pho. Once I got to my aunts house and set up our lunches, I found out that the Pho was cold. I'm not too sure if that was due to me getting takeout or if they had not heated anything up that day. They didn't tell me anything ahead of time so I think that's a little odd to me. You would serve someone cold soup, even though they want to takeout at least without telling them first. Hee Nevertheless, the mango salad, stirfry dish, and Pho all tasted delicious once everything was heated up to the right temperature! We loved our food and I am happy. This location is still around!!

From the pictures this looked very colorful and appetizing. However I was not a huge fan of it once we got it. The broccoli was just barely cooked and there was a lot of onion. The sauce was too sweet and not enough spice or sourness. WOULD I GO BACK? Probably not as the food or ambience was not spectacular.
