The Best Restaurants In North County San Diego - San Diego - The Infatuation

"The Plot helped kick off the trend of sit-down vegan restaurants around San Diego and is still the quintessential spot for meatless dining. The plant-based proteins are particularly good and all made in-house, including chickpea “tuna” and lion’s mane mushroom crab featured in sushi rolls. While there’s another location in Carlsbad, we like Oceanside because of its huge patio—it feels less like a restaurant and more like a fancy friend’s backyard complete with an herb garden, heat lamps, and spare blankets for when the weather has the nerve to dip below 70 degrees." - ligaya malones, candice woo
