 Aburaya is a Japanese fried chicken joint, and also has a bunch of beers and alcohol. They provide some vegan options like **fried vegan chicken** (probably Layonna) with many seasonings to pick from, fried cauliflower, and fried tofu, as well as a few appetizers. It's pretty tasty, nothing amazing. They serve the mains plates with a huge chunk of cabbage so definitely go if you're a cabbage fan.

 While this banh mi was very cheap, it is not nearly as good as the ones nearby on Webster St. Go there instead.

 This place sells a lot of tapas, but like the kind that isn't too bougie. It's like "ok let's take this vegetable and fry it with a bit of olive oil and garlic" and that's pretty much every dish. Sure it's tasty but yeah you can make it at home for sure. Peppers and artichokes were particularly tasty.

 This place doesn't seem like the kind of place that has good falafel, but it does. I got the **falafel cauliflower vegan plate** which came with a bunch of stuff and it was actually pretty good. Not a very cohesive meal but all the elements were tasty.

 This place does ~classic~ thick round rice noodle dishes. The only vegan thing there is a dry style which comes with a bunch of toppings and sauce. I imagine something is lost in this vegan version (and the soup has chicken in it so don't get that). I needed a lot of the chilli condiments served with it. But an enjoyable experience nonetheless.

 Pretty tasty Middle Eastern restaurant. We got the **veggie sampler**, the **impossible kofte** and the okra. Everything was pretty good, and great to have a kofte option, but sizes were quite small. Not the best value. Depends if you're freekehing out about the price or not.

 This is a Hong Kong style cafe with Chinese lunches and Chinese-Western items like spaghetti and "Italian chicken". Given the name, I also wouldn't be surprised if it was a gambling den. It was exclusively populated by old Chinese men staring at the tv.

 This is a highly tasty Taiwanese spot with a lot of vegan options (nearly half the menu). It was $96 (including tax and tip) for 5 people who ordered all the vegan options on the menu + extra spicy noodles. Portions are a little small but if you go with your pushover colleagues who don't advocate for themselves you can get a nice full meal here. The Spicy Noodles, **Tofu Wontons w/ Chili Vinegar**, and Taiwanese Golden Kimchi were highlights, although a low-light was their special of the day, which was an unremarkable root vegetable that came out too booger-y.

 This is a little Chinese lunch spot. They've got one vegan thing on the menu which is rice with a topping of either **vegan fish and broccoli** or mixed mushroom. The whole thing is steamed in a lot of lotus leaf, which gives it a lovely smell.

 Nice ramen spot. I got the **veggie miso ramen** which they can make vegan. Toppings worked well. Lotus root can keep its status as most interesting vegetable shape, well done.

 This place is one of the few places that claim to be the original Mission burrito. Still not sure what the difference is between a Mission burrito and all the other ones I've had in my life, but you go girlfriend.

 There's this area in Downtown Oakland which is just a strip of chain restaurants. I like that they've clustered there so they can be avoided. I didn't know this was a chain but in context it makes a lot of sense.

 Pakistani food truck that's sometimes on this food truck/market corner on 18th and Valencia. They've got a few items they can make vegan, I got the **samosa chaat** (without yoghurt), I think it was like $8 or something. Great deal, fresh and comes with a lot of chickpea curry.

 This is a Jamaican place with an "Ital" section (which they said was all vegan). At the time they just had one option, cabbage and callaloo with sides. It wasn't too exciting, I've had way more flavorful version  of all of these dishes. It was around $20 all up.

 This is an all-vegan Bolivian place. We went on a wednesday night, and by the looks of it it was quiet, but normally they have a live band and stuff, the place looks fun. So maybe it's worth going for the entertainment.

 I'm sorry, I just don't think this is as hype as everyone says it is. This is known as like the best vegan Japanese/sushi around. There were some good things, but a lot of stuff just tasted like the sum of its veggie parts. I did like the **brussel sprouts** and the **kaarage**. Pretty expensive.

+Definitely eat first before coming here, each one of those small plates of sushi roles is like $20.

 This place has a ton of vegan options, pretty good to go to with a bunch of people. The bibimbap was a bit whatever but definitely a lot of yums for the various **pancakes**, **noodle soups**, and glazed potatoes. Mains are around $20 after tips and tax.

 A delightful diner with excelent value for money. The food isn't amazing, but it gets you with the vibe. There's one person taking orders and one old lady making the food. Quick in and out with dishes costing about $10 with tips and tax. I liked the **tea salad** more than the curry and noodles we got, not that they were bad, and you can really jazz things up with the chilli. Veggie items are clearly marked, and they can go through what they can make vegan, there's quite a bit.

 A place that google maps describes as "unassuming" which I translate as maximal number of assumptions. This is a hole-in-the-wall little restaurant. I got the **northern beans** sandwich which was maybe $12 all up? Turns out you get two big wraps with their homemade Yemeni bread, filled with tasty beans. Nothing too unexpected, beans and spices and bread, hits the spot.
