Shangri-La Vegan

I wish everyone can cook like them.My favorites are the soup!hands down, no one can make it like they can.Once you have their soup, you will throw away all your nasty Campbell soups away!

What a lovely spot. I came here for lunch, had pea soup with the medium plate - they don't have an a-la-crate menu but a fixed one that changes a few times a day. The food was simple but very good, I enjoyed it. The soup was a bit salty for my taste and I'm not a fan of vinegar on salad (personal preference), but the cooked veggies with rice were delicious. It felt like the food was made with love. There's something about a place like this that feels good, like a home-cooked meal, for that reason I'll happily be back when I'm in that area!The server shared that the chef had Tibetan background but trained in Japanese cuisine. Overall a great experience, glad there are places around that feel like soul food.Also, they use organic ingredients

American-facing Tibetan run restaurant serving fixed menu macrobiotic faire.Somewhat bland, nutritionally, balanced meals. Great for when your body needs to be nourished and re balanced.

Amazing!The person who took our order was SO nice!The food! Every item had incredible flavor and the salad dressing was to die for. I planned to go here for months it's only two miles away from me on my way to work! I will def have to stop in more often!Just amazing and a great amount of food!Cute little place and outdoor eating also. It's spacious. I love it I will be back!

Service was good. A friendly man took our order. The place was pretty dead at noon. Soup was hot, but very salty. I'm guessing maybe because they cook in big batches, but don't always sell it quickly, so they sell it over a couple or few days and it just gets super salty after reheating it daily. Anyway, the main courses were alright. The squash and beans were really salty. The potatoes (3 pieces) were cooked perfectly and seasoned. The rice was very mushy that we couldn't finish it. It's pretty pricey for a plate of veggies - almost $20 for the full plate. I've had plenty of vegan meals at temples or vegan restaurants and this one is probably at the bottom for me. I wish them well!

I will write a 5 star review every time I eat here. It's that good.Been coming here since 2013, and never get tired of it.The food is simple, you just choose regular or large essentially. Everything is vegan, non gmo no additives and super healthy.The items change daily, and are always good.In 2013 I ate here for 2 1/2 weeks straight (weekdays when I worked) and never got tired of it.Hands down my favorite vegan restaurant. It's run by the Buddhist temple as I understand and it's super quiet and the energy is great. Everyone is super nice Ps the deserts they have (limited quantities) are all delish

We walked in at 11am to a warm smile I was pretty full right after the green split pea soup. My favorite part was the salad with basil lemon agave dressing, then the adzuki beans, collard greens with shiitake mushroom onion sauce and then the cabbage/rice. It's a warm environment with a simple daily menu --you can choose full or moderate as the two sizes. As my friend said, " In an era of incessant faux meat, Shangrila stands out with its whole plant based ingredients, simplicity, and space of tranquility." I gave it a 4 because I prefer some crunch in my food and a little less wet, but I can see why some vegan friends love it too.

The food was very good. They only have one meal option available each day. You can choose to have it in a large or medium portion. I was a little disappointed because I was craving broccoli. It's the first time I had seen this type of menu at a sit down restaurant but the food they had was very good. Friendly service and plenty of seats.(Please be careful about hiding all the valuables in your car if you park in the area. The car we used to get there was broken into and items were stolen.)

Wonderful organic meal. It has similar offerings to the one on San Pablo so I imagine they're related somehow. No sugar (agave in the pie), I haven't seen any wheat/gluten or dairy. It's a relief to not need to make decisions except for the size of my plate and if I want pie or not. Though I saw I could order a single item for $6. Having the free light caffeine tea or to pay for a flavored kombucha is also offered. The atmosphere is clean, peaceful and quiet except for traffic outside. I wish they had a bit of gentle music or chanting playing. But a great respite from noisy places with overly detailed menus. And I always enjoy having the Dalai Lama overseeing a room.

So reliable! The most healthy restaurant I have ever been to. A weekly staple for me. Amazing raw vegan pies for dessert.. free twig tea on tap! Outdoor seating. No need for cumbersome choice making... you can order simple, medium or large meal. That's it!
