The best vegetarian restaurants San Francisco

This is Hayes Valley's new vegan restaurant, a must with its corner-block location, large bay windows and 70s revival signage. A few tables on the terrace precede a pleasant interior. The à la carte menu features vegan dishes, from breakfast to dinner. The ingredients are carefully selected and carefully composed. The popular "impossible burger" is served with veggie meat, avocado toast, vitamin-packed salads and a delicious vegetarian masala. To order, go to the self-service tables.

One of America's very first vegetarian restaurants. In 1979, a young Zen Buddhist decided to create a restaurant dedicated to fresh vegetables. Today, chef and author Annie Somerville is at the helm of Greens, offering refined, subtle cuisine inspired by Italy and India. You'll appreciate the beautiful view of the Golden Gate Bridge through the large picture windows. Even non-vegetarians will be delighted by the experience. Reservations are recommended, as this address has been celebrated by the New York Times.
