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 our 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 experiences significant discomfort due to the stiffness of her skin and limited mobility in her 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, for the time being, we can do only takeout orders, which we still, of course, make with LOVE, for short hours. You are more than welcomed to have the food you have purchased from us on the patio or at one of the tables inside.
Your kind understanding and warm support would be highly appreciated.
Akira & Ana
