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 the 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 feels a lot of discomfort with the stiffness of the skin and the limited mobility of the 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, we can do only takeout of 1 set menu, which we make with LOVE, for shorter hours for the time being.
Your kind understanding and warm support would be highly appreciated.

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.
This spot is a hidden gem. It's family owned so you will always get such a welcoming genuine experience directly from the owners. Every time I come in here I feel SO welcomed, unlike any other place I've visited. They are grateful to have guests and support and it shows in all the right next ways. The energy of this place and the staff is infectious!! In a good way... keeps you coming back for a great experience with amazing food that feeds your soul as well. Can't say enough good things about this place.
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!!
This place is very great! My family of 5 was served with the best quality and the food was delicious and healthy. I highly recommend staying here for a satisfying meal.
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!
