So you're at 2169 Mission and hungry, AND you're vegan? Boy do we have things for you!!

Fear not! The mission is full of vegan friendly joints!


Japanese
Minako - 2154 Mission St - organic Japanese food with many explicitly vegan options, across the street a bit $$$, slowish service, and not always open; but super duper good & Judy & her mom are hella awesome http://www.yelp.com/biz/minako-organic-japanese-restaurant-san-francisco
Cha-ya - 762 Valencia -is vegan organic Japanese food http://www.yelp.com/biz/cha-ya-vegetarian-japanese-restaurant-san-francisco


Chinese
Big Lantern - 16th just past Valencia - passable chinese, their salty spicy fried tofu is pretty delish
Mission Chinese - 2234 Mission, a few doors south of 18th - really good Chinese (but often super crowded). The sign out front says "Lung Shan", which is another restaurant with the same dining hall.


Vietnamese
Sunflower - Valencia and 16th - some vegan options, lot of food for the $


Thai
Osha - 819 Valencia, near 19th St. - Kinda expensive but really good, open until midnight?
Yamo - 3406 Valencia, near Mission St. -- Really good, very reasonably priced. There's often a line to get in, but it moves fast. Eat in the small dining area, or get your food to go.


Indian/Pakistani
Udupi Palace - 1007 Valencia Street all veg, great, helpful with vegan requests, cash only. Very good Southern Indian food (and not as loud as Dosa).
Dosa - 995 Valencia [1]] (see they have a dietary needs pdf, wow, seems usable for gluten free too!) Great Southern Indian food, but super LOUD!
Alhamra - 3083 16th St., near Valencia - really good Northern Indian food. Sit down and chill.
Pak Wan - 3180 16th St., near Guerrero - really good Northern Indain food. Kinda fast.

Gestault - 3159 16th St., between Valencia & Guerrero - Grungy bar that serves Tofukey sausages.


Middle Eastern
Truly Mediterranean - 3109 16th St., near Valencia (next to Roxie Theater). Really good falafel. Try the falafel deluxe (which comes with potatoes and eggplant)! Some seating, but this is really a to-go place.
Old Jeruselum -- 2976 Mission, near 26th St. - Absolutely the best falafel in SF (and just about anywhere).
