Residents of our apartments at The Crossing who practice a vegetarian lifestyle will be delighted by the choices of Anaheim restaurants.  There some great vegetarian restaurants near our family-friendly apartment community that you should definitely check out.

Head over to Rutabegorz for an amazing vegetarian sandwich.   They have plenty of other options for vegetarians, vegans and even offer gluten-free options.  They often serve seasonal specials in order to take advantage of the freshest possible ingredients of the season.   The Loving Hut is a similar styled restaurant that also, surprisingly, happens to be a chain!  However, their food caters to the region of the area each restaurant is in.

Or if you’re in the mood for a taste of a different culture, try out Thuyen Vien, the Vietnamese vegetarian restaurant.  Try out the Vietnamese Crepe or one of the man chicken dishes not containing real chicken!  You can also go to Healthy Junk, which offers dishes such as fish tacos and chili burgers, all vegetarian style.   Even your meat loving friends are bound to love the food here.

Have a meal at one of these fantastic vegetarian restaurants.  For more information about restaurants in the Anaheim area, view our website.
