    Impressed! Super tasty rolls and such a good variety in the menu. The rolls were perfectly crafted. We got the Naruto roll which is deep fried! The rice was a bit thick but overall really good. The Super Sayin crunch roll is actually pretty tasty, it has crispy onions on top and spicy majo! It’s amazingly good, perhaps my best vegan roll ever. The super s2 roll was soo good as well, citrusy but we’ll balanced. I’m coming back and I recommend it!

    Needed a vegan spot for lunch and this place popped up. The food was ready quickly which was great for my short lunch. I got the vegan “bacon musubi” and an amazing crunchy roll (forgot the name) and both were delicious. I love all the textures in the crunchy roll, and the sauces really complimented the roll and the musubi. Highly recommend! 😀

    Naughty vegan Pasadena I love the texture of the faux meat it was appetizing. Now the taste they're going to need to go back into the laboratory because some of their sauces not consistent. The orange chicken didn't taste like orange and the beef broccoli taste of charbroil like they just got it off of the BBQ. They're huge pieces of broccoli were absolutely ridiculous somebody could have chopped up the broccoli. Their carrot sizes seem to not have a lot of love in them they would have done better with a shredded carrot slice instead of one whole big carrot slice. The parking was ridiculous as well they stated when I walked in that they prepare their food in under 10 minutes but I was in the parking lot for 20 and I had to pay $8 parking ticket which sucked. I think naughty vegan can be a great vegan restaurant if it has an overhaul a redo a rebranding especially of their sauces. Why spend all of that money with all of the branding with location and your sauces are subpar? 🤔 That's my two cents I'll give them another try maybe in 3 months we'll see if this post did anything if not you lucky vegans enjoy .........Captain Kirk out.⭐⭐⭐✴️

    I had a takeout today and I loved. I had the ‘chicken’ teriyaki and Korean fried ‘chicken’. Both delicious and full of flavor. The teriyaki was super flavorful, and the texture of the protein they used was very good, hard to stop eating. Good portion size too! The texture of the cauliflower on the Korean fried ‘chicken’ was a great surprise. Soo good. Spicy, tangy, and it finished way too quickly. I had a cucumber salad to refresh from the spicy sauce. Service was good, and everyone was very friendly. Highly recommend. I will definitely go again.

    While planning a quick day trip to Pasadena, I stumbled on this cool, tiny & cute Vegan restaurant. After visiting the Norton Museum, my sister, mom, and I decided to eat dinner here. It didn't disappoint. We ordered through their website, and it only took them about 15 minutes to make our sushi. I ordered the Rengoku Crisp Rice with the Super Saiyan Crunch Roll, which both were good (their drinks are eccentric, so we opted out and bought some next door). The restaurant is pretty small, but there's plenty or space outdoors to the right in the alley by the building (make sure to bring a sweater or a jacket if you dine in the alley, it gets chilly). The staff was super helpful & sweet, and I truly appreciated it, sooo check it out!

    I appreciated Skyler walking me through the entire menu and recommending popular items. I had the combo plate with super saiyan/(sushi) crunch roll/beef broccoli, and it was absolutely delicious. I look forward to trying other items when I am next in Pasadena.

    This is my favorite restaurant! My pick of places to eat on my birthday which means a lot! The meat over fries are my favorite. The sauces are incredible and I’ve never been disappointed by the protein choice. Their chicken, beef, and cauliflower are all equally amazing! You can’t go wrong

    So amazing! Really the staff is super nice, that was number one for me. Followed by the food being so incredible! I couldn’t decide what to order because everything sounded so good! I got the super saiyan crunch roll which is gluten free and obviously vegan and wow! So good! The weather was really nice so I decided to sit in Kendall Alley right around the corner and it was so nice and quiet. I came on a Sunday.

    Filling Healthy food with good portions! I got the teriyaki "chicken" which is made out of soy and seitan. It was tasty but didnt taste like a teriyaki sauce to me. It tasted like there was some vinegar in the sauce and teriyaki is more of a sweet savory flavor(idk if that was just me?). The veggies added a nice crunch to the soft "chicken" meat but i felt like the "meat" could been grilled a little longer so the exterior gets more crispy, or add some crunch bits like fried tempura bits or something to add more texture. The portion size was great! Very filling! The bacon musubi was really yummy! But musubis usually have a little sauce in them, it just had the bacon and furikake. Adding some kind of sauce would have just made it even more yummy! IMO, it was a little overprice, these were $8 for two. Overall i did enjoy it. The food was delicious and filling! Great place fill up that tummy but not feel guilty!

    This is the best vegan food I've ever had, and I've had lots of incredible vegan food. Mind blowing for sure, the textures and flavors blend for a perfect sushi experience I've been craving the past ten years of being a vegetarian. I can't recommend this place enough, and I can't wait to go back!!

    So so soooo delicious! I got the orange chicken bowl and a sushi. The sushi was surprisingly good — my expectations for a fish substitute were pretty low, since I haven’t had a fish substitute since I became vegetarian (7 years ago!!!). But the sushi exceeded my expectations. But the orange chicken bowl was absolutely to die for. 11/10 would recommend. Delicious!

    The best vegan sushi place ever. Everything is delicious. Ate so much! Even the rice was tasty.

  • 4/5 Justin N. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool little place, food was fast and accurate! The sushi was okay, but only had two of the rolls so might have just ordered the wrong item. The Cauli fries were fantastic, cauliflower was extremely crispy, in a great way, but not over cooked in the middle. Still had bite to it. Overall a great stop for some great vegan food in Pasadena. Many more vegan options as well! Hope you all enjoy as well

    One of my favorite vegan restaurants EVER. Their orange chicken was outrageously good..I was shocked it was made out of cauliflower. I can’t even put it into words! You need to try it. Also the Red Gyarados Roll was to die for. One of the best vegan sushi rolls I’ve ever tried! So much flavor. I’m dying to return! Lots of gluten free options too.

    I was expecting a sit down restaurant so I was bummed to see that it wasn’t. Luckily we snagged a few empty seats, but there is VERY limited seating. We ordered on a screen and the food was quickly made and super delicious!!!

  • 5/5 Melanie C. 10 months ago on Google
    ordered the combo with the teriyaki chicken n sushi. everything was amazing except for the teriyaki chicken. i mentioned that to the cook, Rico, and he was sweet enough to give me a sample of the orange “chicken” (cauliflower) and it is HANDS DOWN THE BEST CAULIFLOWER I’VE EVER TRIED. will def go back to try that + service was amazing ✨

    One of the most delicious food I've had! We went to Naughty Vegan twice while we were in Pasadena, and if I lived here, I'd probably go every other day 🤤 Totally recommend it! One thing I would suggest, is less single use objects, at least for the dine in 🙏🌍

    Best vegan sushi I’ve ever tried in LA! Must try. Super friendly staff ❤️🙏

  • 5/5 Dawn L. 6 months ago on Google
    This place is just fantastic. If it didn't have "vegan" in the name I would have thought it was a trick. I had the bbq beef bowl and my partner had the sumo sushi burrito and holyyy moly. So so good, we will definitely be back. Portions are reasonable, and even though it's a little more expensive than I'd usually pay for a rice bowl, it was totally worth it. There is not really any inside seating (like maybe 6 people can eat inside) but there is outdoor dining in the alleyway, which is really pretty. Parking is easy with a parking garage right around the corner.
