“Healthy & Delicious” Modern Japanese Vegan Cuisine - Vegilicious
akira ana vegilicious
VegiLicious is a small restaurant of husband & wife. Akira & Ana from Japan opened an organic vegan restaurant here in Huntington Beach, California in 2013 with a big dream that one day all the people in the world live happy & peacefully. We make great-tasting foods from scratch using ALL ORGANIC vegetables, fruits, rice, beans, nuts, seeds and spices WITHOUT white sugar, refined salt, MSG, GMOs, food additives, and oil (except for organic olive oil for pan-fried items) but with ORGANIC LOVE in order to make you & the planet healthy & happy.

In 2022, Ana caught fire from the heater on our patio while serving customers, and her entire legs suffered serious burn injuries. She had 3 skin graft surgeries and has been having laser surgery every other month. Her entire legs still have large areas of dark stiff burn scars, and she experiences significant discomfort due to the stiffness of her skin and limited mobility in her legs. We were temporarily closed for nearly a year and recently reopened for takeout. Ana & Akira still need to spend many hours every day for her rehab, care and treatment in order to make her stiff dark skin softer and lighter, and to reduce the discomfort, as much as possible. Therefore, for the time being, we can do only takeout orders, which we still, of course, make with LOVE, for short hours. You are more than welcome to have the food you have purchased from us on the patio or at one of the tables inside. 

Your kind understanding and warm support would be highly appreciated.

Akira & Ana will be moving back to Japan in the early summer of 2024, and our restaurant will be sold a few months before that. Please give your email address below if you are not on our email list so we can keep in touch with you and inform you of our latest situation. Akira & Ana are planning to do a B&B(+Dinner) in Okinawa, the Southern Islands of Japan, very famous for its beautiful emerald-green ocean. We'd love to host you there in Okinawa by the ocean when we have made it happen. Please stay informed!!

We have been here several times and each time we have tried something new. The warmth of the owners and the delicious healthy food is what makes this place special. The owners are a couple who work as the chef and server. The salads are very good especially the chefs green salad with the homemade dressing. The regular miso soup and miso ramen are both wonderful as well. I have perhaps had a better ramen, but I always feel good after eating this one. My kids (and me) love the crispy chick'n tenders. They might be the best vegan chicken nuggets I have had. The curries and Kobe BBQ plates are tasty as well. Their lemonades are another standout on the menu. Everything we have tried has been good, but more importantly we feel great after eating here. They mention it on their website, but the service is slow because everything is homemade and they run the restaurant themselves. Come with the expectations to slow down, receive incredibly friendly service and enjoy some great tasting healthy food.

What a delight!!! The food was flavorful and fresh. The owners both came out to greet us who were so friendly! Even if you're not vegan, I highly recommend this place because it's so delicious. Thank you!!

We're locals and this is the best vegan food in Huntington Beach -- the curry is amazing and the desserts are to die for. Thank you so much to the owners for sharing your incredible food! The atmosphere in the restaurant is also sooooo chill and cute. An absolute FAVORITE!
