“Totally amazed by the great selection and quality of the food at lunch buffet. It was really good. They had chicken biryani, goat curry, chicken tikka massala, tandoori, chicken and so many other dishes. They also Chai tea and a good selection of sweet desserts. A gem of a spot and I'm glad I chanced upon it. This will be my go to for Indian buffet, authentic. Service was top notch too!!​“

“Loved the food here! I normally don't like Indian food (mainly curry) but these dishes made me change my mind. The rice and chicken combo were delicious especially when mixing them together. The garlic naan bread was also made fresh and came with 4 large pieces. These dishes are definitely shareable. The service was great. The server was not that talkative but came to check on us a few times. It's also decorated nicely and gave me an Indian vibe. Will be back!“

“Traveling from east coast to west coast on a vacation trip, Mayura was the best Kerala food we had tried in a while. We had Appam, Porotta, Thali, fish curry, chicken curry, Kurma and idiyappam and everything tasted really authentic and homely. Excellent service as well.“

“This 100% vegan place is delicious, has friendly service and a nice casual atmosphere, and-bonus-easy parking. The menu is great but I also love its accessibility. We had the Backyard BBQ Tofu bowl and the Fiesta Carnitas bowl. Can't wait to go back and try more.“

“Great vegan restaurant in Melrose. The food has plenty of flavor and tastes fresh. Prices during happy hour are very affordable, and it’s a great for big groups to share bites and drinks. Atmosphere is nice, especially outdoors on the patio. The highlight of the evening for me was the olive oil brownie — a must try!“

“We came here for Easter Sunday brunch yesterday. It’s a cute restaurant with friendly staff.However, I expected the food to taste better…I ordered their classic breakfast pizza suggested by the server. First of all, it looked great. I’m not a fan of the fake bacon because it tastes like paper. After the first couple of bites, I realized the pizza was barely edible because of the amount of big rosemary leaves added in the pizza dough. I had to hand picked them out of the pizza to avoid tasting the ‘soapy’ rosemary flavor… and I love rosemary in general. Just not THIS MUCH. I asked my friends to also taste my pizza and they all told me I should send it back.Luckily, our server took it back right away and gave me the option to change to a different pizza.The second pizza I ordered was margarita pizza. It was pretty blend. But at least edible.I do need to say their menu is probably a hit or miss. My friends ordered the breakfast burritos that they enjoyed a lot. Which is why I’m leaving it 4 stars.Note: very limited street parking and $20 valet parking.Parking: Very limited street parking and $20 valet parking.“

“Not only do I go there on a regular basis, but I just rented the private room and back patio to celebrate my 60th Birthday Party! Special thank you to Emma! She managed my party perfectly. Emma was on top of everything every step of the way! She is smart and friendly and efficient! I could not have pulled this off without her! Thank you to Ceaser and Orlando as well for their help.I look forward to future events at this store and Laguna location!Dietary restrictions: Pizzas and sliders and Hummus are amazing!“

“Socalo is consistently great. Everyone I introduce it to ends up returning on their own. Everything is great here, the food especially of course (the menu is innovative with kind of a classic base and the ingredients are very high end). Somehow though, they manage to keep the prices reasonable. The staff is really nice, the design and atmosphere are beautiful both during the day and the evening. I love that it's an all day restaurant so you can even grab a meal or a snack during in-between hours. This place is kind of a sleeper favorite and because it seems to be under the radar a bit, getting a reservation is always easy. I truly love this place.“

“Had the fundido and it was amazing. Loved the broccoli on top and the blue corn chips were perfectly salted. Taquitos were delicious. The chickpeas were so creamy and the flavor was spectacular Banana cream pie was so good. Crunchy and smooth at the same time.“

“Cute little fast casual place. The menu might be a challenge for someone who isn't very familiar with Indian cuisine. I was super happy with the plant based Chicken Tikka. The Naan was really good. Very good portions. Definitely want to come back and try more stuff.“

“Absolutely amazing, off the charts food and atmosphere! A wonderful date spot with healthy and super eclectic foods. Everything is farm fresh, interesting and super delicious flavor combos that make for an exceptional culinary experience. And flourless chocolate cake is to die for ! “

“This is one of my favorite vegan restaurants. It's actually a Thai restaurant and it's so amazing. Start with the soup. It's so delicious and authentically thai. I've never had a bad meal here and it's definitely one of my staples for Los Angeles. Yes, it is completely vegan!Vegetarian options: Menu is all vegan“

“Have been twice and everything I've tried has been amazing--as in the conversation at our table all stopped and we spent several minutes raging and exchanging amazed looks. Very fresh and delicious; very prompt and friendly service. Highly recommended -- I will be back many times for sure!!Vegetarian options: Everything.“

“Customer service alone brings this place to 5 stars. The owner is a sweetheart and checked in on us throughout dinner and gave us the best recommendations. The food was incredibly tasty, I had the vegetable biryani and vegetable samosa and both were so good. The food came out quickly and tasted fresh. The place is clean and the decor is so cute. Excited to come back and try more food!“

“I've been coming here for years, I can't believe I haven't written a review! I love their food. My favorite item to order is their mung bean pad thai, although I wish there was an option to get it with soy chicken or beef and not just tofu skewers. The tofu cubes are huge so the flavor doesn't really penetrate them. I like this dish because the noodles and veggies are flavorful. My family also enjoys cashew nut lover dish and the buddha rolls. Those are so filling, I can just get those and be happy. If you like thai tea, you must try it here. So good. One star off because parking is difficult, especially on weekends, and it's a little pricy for me. The good thing is that inflation has led to all restaurants raising their prices in the last couple of years, so I am more used to it and not as bothered as I used to be . Note: the seats are incredibly uncomfortable so if you dine in and have back issues like me, bring a cushion.“

“AMAZING!!! This place is genius and delicious. I wish it were located closer to home, but well worth the drive. Prices are great, food is incredible, and to top it off...VEGETARIAN!!!! I'm far from vegan and love Chinese cuisine, so this place giving me the great taste without the negativity of eating a lot of meat...perfection!“

“Very much enjoyed the food and experience here. Small quaint place with charm and authenticity. I had the vegan pad Thai which was well prepared, and the tofu and vegan chicken were tasty and nicely incorporated. Would love to try the curries next time.“

“La La Lasagna is to die for and if I was dying, I would want this as my last meal. I'm not being hyperbolic when I say this is my favorite food to eat *ever* and I have a child-like giddiness when I have the chance to stop by this truck.Chef Michelangelo is the nicest man on the planet and I'm happy to give him all my money. Do yourself a big favor and RUN to get some.“

“It's plated very beautifully and the food is all amazing, especially for being vegan. It's a tiny little restaurant, only three little tables, but it's all very good and very very well priced, especially for CaliforniaVegetarian options: It's a vegan place. They have a number of dishes labeled 'chicken' and whatnot but when my sister opened it up it was clearly not on the inside, but still goodWheelchair accessibility: There's ~3 accessible parking spots and a small ramp“

“Thanks to our fabulous server, Joshua- everything was perfect! Two members of our party had finished the LA Marathon and Josh went out of his way to make sure they got everything exactly as they wished. He treated them like Kings - which they deserved. The food, as usual, was fresh and delicious and fantastic. Major props to the whole kitchen crew for doing such a great job on such a busy day. Also- the grass fed beef in the true blue burger is amazingly tender and fresh. Only to be topped by the grass fed ice cream on top of freshly baked chocolate chunk cookies.“

“Jedric and Ashley were absolutely fantastic, and super accommodating and offered to easily change my crispy chicken sandwich once I discovered it had milk, because I'm lactose intolerant. Even though they already made the food Jedric very kindly refunded me.While ordering, Ashley made me feel welcomed, part of the burger lounge family, and did great recommending things on the menu which motivated me to try the chicken tenders. Having workers with personality is super important.Precisely because of the great customer service, I will definitely be back.There is a great atmosphere created by the staff that work here, and the food was phenomenal. The food was incredibly tasty. Hats off ? to the cook and the overall experience and people that run this place. Very clean.“

“I love how awesome the staff are here it's like speaking to an old friend. Please come in and give them a try! I already tried their sandwiches, which is really wholesome and hearty. Their pizzas are thin crust, but very delicious. I've had the young and the go green!“

“I really Love the lamb chops, dolmas and rice meatball soup. I didn’t take pictures, I was so busy eating my food. My kids loved the chicken kebab. Service is great. As a Latina I feel a little shy when I’m trying different food but they are very nice people and food is delicious.“

“We loved the food a lot. Jain food was very good. Staff was not that polite, however food made us very happy. If you stay in LA and visit Santa Monica beach and looking for India vegetarian restaurant around, this restaurant will come to rescue. Just mind the timing as its open till 9:30 pm.Dietary restrictions: They have separate Jain menu. We tried Jain Paneer makhani, Paneer paratha, Dal tadka and Jeera rice. Every dish was amazing. Must a visit.“

“Still working my way through the list of soups. Most have been excellent. A couple of just oks. Try the Thai coconut and add a tablespoon of peanut butter....insane! I am a carnivore and I still enjoy these.Dietary restrictions: If you are like me and struggle to eat more vegetables, this is an easy way to get better nutrition.“

“Put simply, my favorite restaurant of all time is Leonore's. I love it, and I can't say enough good things about this place. My favorite meal there is their soy chicken enchilada dinner, and I add a beet salad and a flaxseed tea. And their waitress Amy is terrific.“

“Excellent delicious, fresh, healthy vegetarian food served in a highly uplifting atmosphere. Nice people, and fantastic location next to the Krishna temple. We also went to the Bhagavad Gita museum next door and thought that was fabulous. Will definitely return the next time we are in LA!“

“I've traveled throughout India and have to say, they serve very Authentic Southern Indian food here and what I'd call the best dosa and idli I've ever tried in LA! I recommend their thali plate lunch special (the idea behind a thali is to offer all the 6 different flavours of sweet, salt, bitter, sour, astringent and spicy on one single plate-wiki), tofu 65, and their dosa and idli (the probiotics within are great for calming an upset stomach!). In addition, the service is personable and genuine! IG: kay_okay_eat“

“I am so happy I found this place!! This was one of my first times in Sherman Oaks, and I just wanted to find something to eat that would make me feel good and not run down when I’m on the go, so I’m stoked I found Harvest Bar. I’m not vegan but I love places that can make even a meat eater like myself love eating things like jackfruit nachos. The smoothie was delicious too and my friend got an acai bowl that was super fresh. Definitely gonna make this a go to spot when I’m over that way“

“We went in for an early lunch. Got to the store about 5 minutes before opening. It was a little brisk out. The manager saw us out front and let us wait in the lobby to get out of the cold. Very nice and unexpected. Our server was pleasant. Started with the cheese curd appetizer. It was filling. Grilled salmon was cooked correctly fresh and flavorful. Tried the vampire spicy pork tacos. Ordered three. They were delicious and filling. Took one home, not good reheated. Craving for good ol fish & chips. Nice batter and flakey. Upgraded to parmesan fries. All meals were delicious. Recommend a visit.“

“I enjoyed the G3 and the C2 from Rejuice, the other day with my wife, and we were both very impressed by the freshness and delicious flavors of our pressed juices. We will most definitely be returning here and trying the rest of these amazing “

“If you are looking for a clean, great service, and good pho place this is the place to go! The place is very laid back and perfect if you're going with your love one or going to have a catch up with a friend. So far this is also the best egg roll we've ever had. I am definitely going back!“

“Thai Blvd Bistro undoubtedly offers the epitome of fine dining in town. From the exceptional quality of their food to their impeccable service and pristine cleanliness, this bistro receives an enthusiastic recommendation of the highest order.“

Not only is the food amazing, but the service is absolutely incredible!Nazirul, one of the employees, is the sweetest person! He knows our order by heart and always makes sure everything is to our liking! He really makes the experience a 10/10.The Chana Masala is the best dish there, paired with garlic & cheese naan - it's the best meal to exist! I urge everyone to try this restaurant as it will become your go to!Dietary restrictions: I'm vegetarian and find it easy to order here.Parking: Parking is great - either on ventura blvd. or in the back of the restaurant.“

“I love Greenleaf! I'm so happy the Century City location is open again <3. The food is consistent, clean, fresh and super tasty across all locations. I love the upgrades they've made to the CC location to give it a more, "stay and hang out" vibe. I LOVE that they have paleo options, and they are all GOOD! When I'm not on paleo, my go-to's are the "Cheap N' Easy" breakfast sandwich (lots of protein!) and the Hollywood Bowl. I've done dine-in, pick-out and delivery. Enjoy!Dietary restrictions: Paleo“

“Very close and very delicious. They are RELIABLE which is so hard to find these days. They are hard working and they listen and read the orders well. I like to call after placing online and they never seem like they are in a bad mood. All of this is important to me lol. Thank you for being near UCLA!“

“Is this good Falafel or what? I've been here twice but it only keeps getting better and better. We got a Falafel baguette, with french fries and a side of chicken schnitzel. I asked for a jalapeño to add a little heat to my food and boy did he delivered . The owner is very friendly and tends to his costumers with a smile. Very kind soul. Cannot recommend this place enough. Also, I didn't take a pic, but he's got a table with a Washing Cup setting for Al Netilas Yadayim. So props for that!“

“I love MIXT! It's a little overwhelming when you're not sure what to get when you're trying new place but Basil & Vanessa helped me and I enjoyed every part of my meal! Both my mom & I got the Bachan's Bowl and we loved it! Definitely recommend! Good food + great customer service“

“I always had a good experience at veggie grill.Ordering online or dining in. Service is always great and food is always delicious.As an avid vegan who tries different foods constantly, I’d define veggie grill as a sort of “healthy fast food” among the many options available in LA. Prices are decent and I love how all details about meal are included on the menu, including the amount of calorie for each dish.A must try for vegans and non vegans :)My favorites: lentil soup, Far East Thai bowl - replaced with tempeh, nachos, quesadilla.Thank you veggie grill!“

“seaweed salad and gyoza were great to start! the ambiance feels moderately dedicated towards japanese culture which is always a plus. they may have been understaffed when I came, but service was a bit weak. The ramen entree left a bit more to be desired flavor-wise, but I do really appreciate the vibe in the establishment. I would come again!“

“Super delicious!! Friendly service!! Reasonable prices and cozy, trendy atmosphere. Definitely a new favorite comfort food spot ?Great spot for a get together with friends, family, or even a date!We had the Roti & Curry starter and Pineapple Fried Rice. The curry dip was hearty and creamy and paired perfectly with the crunchy roti. The fried rice was the perfect balance of fresh produce and indulgent fried goodness. It's the kind of amazing dish that leaves you feeling satiated but not bloated! All of my compliments to the chef.Vegetarian options: Everything was VeganDietary restrictions: Gluten free options, dishes containing nuts clearly labeled“

“I order from this location often. I don't remember any issues, but today, Natalie assisted me over the phone with a GrubHub order and she was amazing. She remembered several things that are particular to my usual order and assisted with some exceptions.Very much appreciated. Gold star for all of them, but especially Natlie, today!“

“Sandwiches are the easiest food to make and take on the go. I didn't make it but I chose the grilled chick'n sandwich because it was primarily made with whole ingredients minus the chick'n. I'm not a vegan or vegetarian by any means but it was a pretty good sandwich. The texture of the patty slightly resembled chicken but it got lost in all the veggies. The pickled onions were my favorite part and they didn't skimp on the avocado.“

“Ordered tonight. Generous portions. Perfect spice level. The Korma was heavenly. The rice pudding is delicious too. I like that they take pop pay. They have a ton off different drinks and it's an ethnic market light. They have all priced condiments and fresh vegetables andgrab and go items. Neighborhood gem!Dietary restrictions: Vegan options“

“Great selection for vegetarian Indian cuisine. Somewhat $$ however food was good especially their Puri. You pay at the counter and they have fancy robots who serve at the table. Clean restrooms.Parking: As it is a busy area, somewhat difficult to find free or street parking“

“Ok, I wanted to hate this place so badly (sorry Gwyneth) but I can’t. Everything I’ve had is fresh, ultra flavorful and absolutely gorgeous! I mean, look at how pretty this salad is! I always get the Cobb, and when they have the curried squash soup I jump on it. It’s a touch pricey, but the quality is worth the extra bucks. Portions are filling, and I always feel satisfied! Thanks for making me a convert!“

“Wow this place is so good! It's a fast food healthy spot and they have tons of healthy options. The place inside reminds me of chipotle, but healthier.Food: great!I got the hot honey chicken protein and asked for additional romaine ($0.50). This was a great protein style plate with sweet potatoes. I wished they gave more sauce bc it was so delicious! Service: goodThey were helpful and nice!“

“I’ve been here several times and every time I go the service is great. The manager is always very helpful and all of the workers are very communicative.It’s nice that they validate parking for the nearby parking garage, considering the lack of street parking.There is indoor and outdoor seating available. The workers always get through the line very fast and efficiently.As far as accessibility is concerned, there is no ramp needed for entry and the countertops are at a reasonable level for wheelchair users.Parking: Sweet Green validated parking.“
