Jyoti-bihanga - San Diego

This is my go-to vegetarian spot in San Diego. I've been dining here for more than 25 years. Despite living in Florida, whenever I visit my sister in town, I always make sure to stop by at least once.

Jyoti Bihanga is a longstanding vegetarian restaurant in the Normal Heights neighborhood that has been serving fresh and healthy dishes for the past 50 years. They are known for their popular Neatloaf, which also comes in a vegan option, and the peaceful and attentive service provided by servers who are students of the meditation practiced at the restaurant. Despite its quality, the food remains reasonably priced, making it a great option for those looking for a delicious and affordable meal.

Despite the rain and traffic on the freeway, I decided to stop and enjoy a delicious meal at a nearby restaurant. I had a satisfying dish of meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy, followed by a decadent chocolate raw pie and a tasty bowl of Russian soup. I left feeling grateful for the comforting and tasty meal.

I’m really glad I visited this place on my trip to San Diego. It’s vegetarian with plenty of vegan options for decent prices. The food tasted fresh and flavorful. I got a dinner salad (which was $6) and a bowl with lots of veggies. Just what I wanted!

Lovely place with delicious food and peaceful atmosphere!
