About this business
Bodhi Tree Vegetarian Cafe has been the talk of the town for years. Many OC folks rave about it. But first timers, be warned about the lack of service, and the bathroom sharing with other businesses. Here it's all about the food—vegetarian only. Try Seaweed Wraps, Jack Fruit Salad, Beef with Spicy Peanut Sauce, Pho Soup, Fresh Young Coconut, and Ice French Coffee. Tropical Pumpkin Soup is to die for, but unfortunately, not offered everyday. Within walking distance from Oceanview Promenade and Huntington Beach State Bea... read more

Excellent Food – Thanksgiving 2010 - My first time visiting the Bodihi Tree Cafe and I was impressed with both the selection and quality of food they had for their Thanksgiving feast. Not a vegetarian myself, however eating three vegetarians we all enjoyed the food. I believe among the favorites was the ham. I have not had the pleasure of dining here and enjoying their regular menu, but the buffet style Thanksgiving feast was great.
TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!!!!! – I have been eating at this restaurant for about 5 years and so I will try to be as unbiased as I can. Even after they switched ownerships, I continued to patronage this restaurant because the vegetarian menu is decent and it is close to home. I never had a problem with them before. Then, last week Groupon offered a deal for Bodhi Tree and I jumped on it. We showed up today for lunch with the intent to use it. Groupon's policy states that there are two ways to redeem the deal: print the ce... read more
Excellent! – My daughter is vegan and I like to join her when she speaks highly of a restaurant. She bugged me to go to the Bodhi Tree and I went on one Tuesday after the street fair. OMG, let me tell you, what a superb meal! I loved my food, and both daughters enjoyed theirs. The service was good, the staff friendly, the atmosphere relaxing. Definitely will join them for many many more visits!
Made Me Sick – I ate there for the first time and got f00d poi$oning. I had a lunch special and ate everything..soup, noodles, tofu shrimp... That night I got a headache and nausea. The headache and nausea continued to the next morning. After taking Ibuprofen, I felt better. The coworker I ate with got even worse symptoms that still lingers after 4 days.
A favorite even for non vegetarians – This is one of my favorite restaurants. The soups and stews are especially good. The curry stew being one of my favorite meals. The coconut ice cream and lotus cake is delicious. Even if you're not a vegetarian you will still enjoy this restaurant. The staff is friendly and helpful. The owner remembers you and is always welcoming.
IF I could give it 0 stars, I would – This place is so disgusting. Let me tell you why: Visit #1: seated next to an exterminator who was exterminating their kitchen, and the can of pesticides fell out of his pocket, and squirted seme pesticide out. After being uneasy about THAT, they brought out my salad, which had human hairs on it...YUCK. Being a very forgiving person, I gave it one more try. Visit #2: Ordered "pho" (vietnamese soup). And it had a gigantic moth floating in the broth...YUCK...I'm pretty sure that the moth r... read more
Worst Asian Vegetarian Restaurant – I wouldn't reccommend this restaurant to anyone. I had many different type of vegetarian food in my life. Even food from temples are much better than this. The service was horrible; i ordered spicy pork, but i received sweet and sour pork. The waitress gave me ice tea, but i ordered the thai tea. The sauce was thick and heavy in sugar and cornstarch. I am very picky with rice, so rice they offer didn't compliment the sauce. The perfect rice would be properly cooked and goes well with the s... read more
Good alternative to "meat -eating" restaurant...not so great service – Just became a vegetarian a few months ago and have never realized how hard it is to find vegan or vegetarian restaurants. I'll say that my dish was great, "chicken" with glass noodles. Yum, it really did look and taste like chicken. My bf had the sizzling rice dish, and it tasted a little burnt, and had a TON of cilantro in it, an herb neither of us like at all, and probably something they should specify on the menu if theyre going to use so much of it. S... read more
Best vegetarian restaurant in town – The Bodai Tree has become my absolute FAVORITE cafe in Huntington Beach. I have been a 30 yr resident and I was introduced to Bodai Tree by my daughter 3 months ago. We dine there every week. My favorite dishes are the Chicken Stir Fry, the Sizzing Rice Vegetable Plate and then for dessert--- you HAVE to try the bread pudding with the Coconut vegetarian ice cream. Its heaven.
