Seabirds Kitchen

Our experience was great. Friendly and quick service. We weren't sure if the food was going to live up to the hype, but we were really impressed. Clean, vegan and very flavorful. We started with the purple taquitos with guac and jalapeño. My fiancé got the chilaquiles Rojas and I got the chipotle Florentine. I've never been able to eat most of these foods, but the vegan options were not only aesthetically pleasing- they were delicious! Also, highly recommend the peach mojito and the pineapple/pear cider. Both were great. Located in The Lab, this area was unique and eclectic. Highly recommend for vegans/vegetarians new to the area. Has an artsy vibe. We hit up Bootleggers brewery right after, down the walkway. Just a great experience overall.

Seabirds is a long time 100% Vegan Restaurant! It's a great restaurant to go as a vegan & to take people to that aren't vegan. Plus- there are plenty of other food options at the Anti-Mall (LAB) if people each want to get food from different restaurants. I've been to this Seabirds location quite a few times since my first time back in 2016. I remember my first time (as a new vegan) trying the grilled cheese and tomato soup. I was so concerned with how good the grilled cheese was and had to ask a staff member to confirm that this place was indeed vegan. It was- of course- I just hadn't had that yummy of vegan cheese yet. I like to try new/different menu items when I go and am confident that they'll be yummy. Outdoor seating is nice & staff are always nice! Tip: check out Stella Jean for vegan ice cream & GoodTown Doughnuts for vegan doughnuts, then go to EcoNow for eco-friendly & zero-waste & refill items!

Expensive. Flavorless food. Everything taste the same. Lazy staff. Greet you with attitude until it's time to pay.

| A Plant-Based Oasis If you're searching for the ultimate vegan dining experience, look no further than SEABIRDS located at the infamous hipster mini mall / dating app profile pic photography studio: The Lab in Costa Mexico. From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by the warm vegan ambiance, friendly semi vegan staff, and tantalizing non carnivorous aromas wafting through the air.I've been coming here since day 1 and let's be honest; the MVP here are the fried avocado tacos. I could eat like 200 of those bad boys. Other highlights would include:The shroom taco, PURPLE taquitos, and butternut squash enchiladas.Try it, don't be scared. I promise it won't cause you to metamorphose into a raging woke liberal. You will be okay. Will not affect your testosterone levels or reputation or your money back!Anyways, 5 god damn stars for sure!!!!Even their deserts / sweets ain't bad. Cheers

This place is sooo good!! Came here on Saturday afternoon and had to wait about 30 mins to seat 5 people, but it was well worth the wait. I'm not vegetarian but I wanted to try this spot with my friends, and I didn't miss eating meat at all while I was here lol.We shared the Jackfruit Nachos and added guac and jalapeños on top, which really made the dish shine even more. It was soo delicious, I would come back just for this! We also got the Butternut Squash Enchiladas, Chilaquiles Roja, and tacos and really enjoyed the flavors of these as well.Highly recommend bringing anyone here, whether they're vegetarian or not. There's something here for everyone to enjoy!

Came here for brunch with some friends. My fiancé and I shared the biscuit bomb and chilaquiles roja. We thought the biscuit bomb was ok and could have used some sauce because if was a little dry. We enjoyed the chilaquiles roja, the flavor was great. We also ordered the sparkling pear mocktail which was refreshing. The restaurant is located in the LAB Anti-Mall. There is indoor and outdoor seating options. The noise level wasn't too loud. The restaurant is dog friendly. One of our friends brought their dogs so we sat outside. One of the waitstaff even brought out a water bowl for the dogs so they were able to stay cool and hydrated. I would definitely recommend Seabirds Kitchen to any of my friends that are looking for a vegan or vegetarian meal in Orange County.

We had dinner here for the first time and were very impressed with the food! We are not vegans, but wanted to try their food since my cousin raved about it. The zippy fries special was really flavorful (vegan cheese sauce with mushrooms over fries), and we enjoyed the avocado tacos, beet burger, and rigatoni entrees. The chocolate mousse made with avocado was tasty, as was the chocolate chip cookie. Unique iced teas and cocktails too. Service was fantastic. The parking lot gets very crowded, so give yourself time to find a spot if you have a dinner reservation.

One of my favorite all-vegan restaurants in Orange County...and this is coming from a foodie who has migrated from the Bay Area through Eugene and Portland, OR, as well as Los Angeles. I've indulged in both delivery and dine-in here, with equally exquisite experiences.Menu itself is delightful, and it's hard to go wrong. That said, I can't help but play favorites...Necessary indulgences:-Tomato soup-Grilled cheese-Purple taquitos -Peach cobbler

SOOOOO GOOOOODDD!!!Hands down best stop on my trip!! On Fridays they have CAULIFLOWER FILET SANDWICH 10/10. My Non-Vegan friend LOVED it!! I was in love!! We got the PURPLE TAQUITOS which had a great texture and flavor. For dessert the CHWAFFLE was incredible!! Nice and crispy with a soft inside!!Staff was friendly and gave good service.
