I recently traveled to LA/SGV and discovered Happy Buddha Kitchen, a Vietnamese vegetarian restaurant that has truly impressed me. The food is exceptional, with a wide range of flavorful dishes that capture the essence of Vietnamese cuisine. They recently got a new menu and added tons of options too! The staff is friendly and attentive, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Their commitment to quality and sustainability is commendable.

First time trying Happy Buddha. All the food is vegetarian even though the names mimic dishes with meat. Food was so amazing and the staff were super nice! I went with a friend. We tried the uber delicious bun bo hue. This is a must try. My friend is Vietnamese and said it’s better than anything he’s had. The lemongrass chicken tasted like real chicken and the sides were great, too. Egg rolls were crunchy on the outside and soft and tasty on the inside. Perfection! Parking was a breeze with the large parking lot and big spaces. Tater tots and waffle fries came in cute holders.

I’ve been to Happy Buddha numerous times now and it always delivers. I’ve been vegan/vegetarian for 13 years and I’ve eaten at countless vegetarian spots (it’s kind of a hobby of mine), and this spot is one of the few that can incorporate authentic flavors that are dialed in just right, a bright/open/unpretentious atmosphere, and insanely reasonable prices.

Great vegetarian restaurant! Probably the best in town. They have great selection of different food for your like and ranging from authentic Chinese style to Vietnamese style. The chief and owner continuously update their menu with great tasting food. We had Orange Chicken, Beyond Pho, Eggplant with Tofu pot and Egg Rolls for dinner. The service is above and beyond, even a slice of lemon in the tasty iced water! The price is very reasonable consider the current inflation. The majority of the dishes are around $12. Great restaurant and will definitely suggest to everyone vegetarian or not!

My family and I are returning customers, as we couldn’t resist the absolutely delicious and unique vegetarian restaurant’s menu!! Today, we ordered favorite past foods such as the Tofu Rolls and Shrimp and Pork Rolls, Rice Noodles, Stir Fried Vegetables, and Combination Pan Fried Rice Noodles, as well as a new dish, Egg Rolls–all were tasty and clean as usual. Also, the customer service there is excellent; they were kind and flexible with orders. I’m not a big fan of mint in my spring rolls, so I asked for none. They complied with my wishes with no problem at all, so I’m very appreciative of that. 5 stars overall!

This is such a hidden gem in Temple City. Everything we ordered are DELICIOUS. I’ve never eaten an egg roll since I don’t eat pork. That been said, this is the first-ever egg roll in my life and I LOVE IT! If I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, I would choose this taro taste egg roll. The salt and pepper chicken (heard it’s their new dish) is also super good. Highly recommended for anyone who is vegetarian.

Lemongrass chicken! Lemongrass chicken! Lemongrass chicken! Trust me. You’ll thank me later. This is definitely their must try dish if it’s your first time and only getting one item. If getting two items, then gotta add the bun bo hue. Personally, I like to sub in the wide egg noodles. I overheard some aunties saying how good it was and had to try it. Did not disappoint. Glad I heard them talking about it.

Was looking for a restaurant with healthy, tasty, and vegetarian options. So happy I found Happy Buddha Kitchen. They will make eating more plant based diet so much easier. In Temple City Plaza next to Office Depot and CVS.
