"Rad Radish is the model citizen for vegan fast-casual. The menu at this semi-industrial, modernist spot runs the gambit, from salads and grain bowls to pizzas, pastas, and sandwiches. These Mediterranean-Italian-ish (and occasionally Mexican) dishes are excellent vegan interpretations that’ll make you question whether you’re really at a vegan restaurant (you are, and a great one at that). Standouts include the al pastor bowl with tangy green salsa, the spicy impossible meat and jackfruit meatballs, and the super creamy vanilla oat milk soft serve with decadent chocolate sauce. Our only other advice: look for vegan pizza elsewhere (the coconut mozzarella used on most of the pies isn’t exactly a flavor powerhouse)." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"From the same team behind Wildseed comes vegetarian breakfast food (vegan, actually) every day of the week. The chilaquiles come with a spicy tomato sauce, black beans, pico de gallo, avocado, and Just egg. For lunch, there are loads of sandwiches, burgers, and even flatbreads." - Paolo Bicchieri
"A new player in the plant-based restaurant scene — from the same team behind Wildseed — this restaurant opens at 9 a.m. on weekdays and 10 a.m. on weekends. The chilaquiles are to die for, Vietnamese iced coffee goes for just $5, and the interior design is incredibly cute." - Lauren Saria, Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri
"Hayes Valley newest all day vegan cafe is home to a proper plant-based breakfast sandwich. For just $8 the Just Egg-stuffed sandwich comes with “American cheese” and garlic aioli. For $3, throw on tempeh bacon or Beyond Meat sausage." - Dianne de Guzman
"Rad Radish is a fast-casual Mediterranean-Italian-ish vegan spot in Hayes Valley that we like for their large selection of salads, grains bowls, pasta, and sandwiches. For Restaurant Week, look to their $15 lunch menu, which includes either a kale caesar or crispy chicken sandwich, and a chocolate chip cookie." - ricky rodriguez
