Vegan Options at California Fish Grill (Updated 2024)

California Fish Grill Vegan Options

The vegan options at California Fish Grill are not what they used to be, unfortunately. If you came here hoping to find their 4 plant-based seafood entrees on the menu, they are no longer available. 

You do have options though! While they may not be “seafood,” they are fresh. 

Choose a starter and entree or opt for mixing & matching a few sides. 

Here is your current list of vegan options at CFG:

* Fried food may share a fryer with seafood. Ask your location if this is a concern for you. As with any restaurant that is not 100% vegan or does not offer a designated cooking space for their vegan options, cross contamination can occur and fryers/grills may be shared with animal products. You can choose what your level of comfort is with these potential issues.

California Fish Grill FAQ


Does California Fish Grill Offer Plant Based Seafood?

No. All within one week, we received multiple emails from people letting us know that California Fish Grill is no longer offering their plant based seafood options. These included the Plant Based “Ahi” Poke Bowl, the Plant Based Grilled “Shrimp” Plate, the Plant-Based Dynamite “Shrimp” Bowl and the Plant-Based Battered “Fish” & Chips. 

When we contacted CFG to ask when this happened and why, we were told that they stopped supplying their restaurants with the plant-based seafood around January 2024 and let each location sell out of them over time. The reason why they were removed:

Unfortunately, due to little to no movement, we have decided to remove the plant-based options from our menu.
