Vegetarian House

The food was really yummy. My friends and I ordered a few items and they all tasted delicious!The service was friendly and helpful.Parking was plentiful and the restaurant was easy to find.

I've been coming to Vegetarian House since it first opened back in the mid-90s, and after all these years, I still haven't found better vegan food, locally or globally. Their food is consistently amazing, and their mix of Asian and Western cuisines makes it easy for an interracial couple to find something we both love.My go-to dishes are: * Queen's Joy: Soy protein stir-fried with onions and garlic--so simple, yet so good. * Claypot Sensation: Bean curd cakes wrapped in seaweed and braised in a rich, savory gravy. * Dancing Asparagus: Fresh asparagus cooked with soy protein, mushrooms, bell peppers, and a slightly spicy peanut sauce. Perfect balance of flavors. * Rainbow: Crispy bean curd wrapped in nori, served with veggies and mushrooms in sweet & sour sauce. Always hits the spot.Honestly, I think I've tried everything on the menu, and I've loved it all.They're open for indoor dining Friday through the weekend, and on weekdays, you can sit on their heated patio (they're closed Tuesdays). Vegetarian House has been a staple for me for decades, and it's still my #1 spot for vegan food.

Here are the best choices:*Nachos*Dumpling Soup*Blossom Sandwich*Tempura*Eggplant Tofu*Pad Thai*TiramisuOkay/unreliable choices:* Fresh rolls / spring rolls*Quinoa sushi* Chow funDefinitely avoidable:*Chow mein (overcooked, flavorless, almost all noodles)*Dal (super salty)*Hummus (no flavor)*Crispy mushroom delight (so expensive and you barely get anything)

Food here is really good! My fav vegetarian spot behind merit! The service is self serve; you have to get your own utensils, plates, and water. My favorite dishes were the chow mein, crispy mushroom, and dancing asparagus. The Thai tea has a bold tea flavor. The spicy cha cha was just okay and the Tom ka was too sweet for my liking.

I love their pad Thai! I love sitting outside & sharing a good meal with my friend for hours here! Everyone is so sweet & the service is always great. I'm excited to keep trying more food on their menu (I always get the same thing cus it hit perfectly every time lol)

* I'm very biased as I love vegetarian house!! I've been stopping by since college.* The outdoor area is so warm, and pleasant. The indoor is clean and modern. * The food has always been so good. Stopped by with friends recently and in the past and will say I've enjoyed all of the dishes I've had. * The curries have deep, rich flavors. The soup with tofu skin is for sure one of the best I've had. The noodles have a great bite. The fried options have a nice crunch as well. * The employees are talkative and extremely friendly. They make you feel very welcome when you chat back!

Went here on Sunday for lunch with friends! There's a parking lot on the side and the place has a good amount of seating inside. I think there's seating outside too but it was closed off the day we came. The inside of the restaurant is really cute! I really liked the colorful stain glass windows. The menu has a variety of kinds of food, from asian food to burgers. I got the pad thai which was huge, very warm and filling. They definitely give you big portions and at a reasonable price. The service was great and kind as well, would definitely come again to try other dishes :))

Our waitress had marvelous energy and real passion about the menu and the restaurant's guiding mission: serve delicious and healthy vegan food! We shared 5 items between the three of us. The portions are generous and the price is fair, but the main point of this review is: this is excellent and delicious vegan food served up by a positive and up-beat wait-staff!

Lots of vegan options. Great customer service. This is a nice cozy restaurant; it feels like having a meal at a friend's house.

Wonderful family-run business located in the heart of San Jose.Very happy to have come here with my friend who has been vegan for 5+ years. She loves the pho and for good reason! I tried the Guru curry and loved it too, not as spicy as it is marked to be. Water and utensils are all self-serve, and food comes out pretty quickly. Service is very sweet and quick.
