Cafe gratitude is a great place to meet up, especially considering the busy area it’s in. It can be a bit pricey, but most lattes in this city are expensive.They are a vegan only restaurant, which means no normal milk. I didn’t mind too much, but I do prefer normal milk. The pastries were nice, and fairly priced. The rest of the food is pretty pricey.Dietary restrictions: Only vegan milks, no animal milks

Loved cafe gratitude. All the menu items were amazing in taste and the names were decided so thoughtful. It isn't a usual food place but everything was so much thought about and effort put into and that was visible in everything. Loved the margarita pizza and I am resourceful salad bowl. 3 out of the 4 days in the city, I went to cafe gratitude for dinner. Highly and must recommend!!

Food and service is amazing , parking is quite tricky . No EV parking/charging . However the customers are very cooperative when double parking and blocking their cars .

The atmosphere and experience of cafe gratitude is so calming. From their interior design to their plates, everything is well thought out. Highly recommend 'the initiative' I thought the service was just enough. I wouldnt say our waitress went above and beyond, but she did just fine.

Wow! Every single menu item has a list of ingredients that are fascinating and delicious and pair delightfully together. I'm not vegan and don't tend to frequent places in this genre but I found the ambience, the menu offerings, and the philosophy here to be extremely well executed. The service was excellent and I do find the vibe and menu namings to be encouraging and fun, which I think is the goal of the naming scheme. The smoothie, risotto, and eggplant sandwich were all fantastic, and the pancakes were great! I couldn't spot anything on the menu that I wouldn't be willing to try--if anything the decision fatigue set in due to so many great options! I know if I were vegan this place would be heaven. The price point is reasonable too!

This is an AWEmazing eatery to bring your non vegan friends. The foods are delectably delightful. The staff are super friendly. AND the ambience, well there's no comparison. I have been to the one in Newport Beach which sadly closed but is now a smaller cafe at the back of Gracias Madre. I have also eaten at least twice at the downtown location which also sadly closed. I have also eaten at other locations...give them a try and you will love the way the menu is written, the delicious food, and the stellar customer service

This is a quintessential LA brunch spot! We were visiting from out of town and this is exactly the kind of place that you'd expect in LA - lots of super healthy menu items with vague names haha I really enjoyed my superfood Acai bowl - I've had many Acai bowls before and I felt this one was especially delicious and filling! I also had a latte made with almond milk (which they make in house) - unfortunately, this was a total miss imo. I kind of knew I wasn't going to like it based on the presentation (see photo) but it may have been one of the worst lattes I've ever had. I'm not sure if it was because of the milk or the espresso... I know it's tough getting non-dairy milks to foam.. but we've seen it done before. I can't pinpoint what the issue was, but I would recommend ordering a different drink.

Nice plant-based eatery, but so pricy! I get it though. They have some alcoholic beverages, the ginger spritz was very tasty. Friendly and attentive crew members. If you’re lucky you might be able to get a spot in their parking lot (only 3-4 spaces). If not you have to find street parking

Been twice, first time just for drinks. Great experience, good waitress and amazing drinks! Strongly recommend the one with mint.Second time here today. Had a sandwich which was good, but the waitress was repeatedly very rude. Once I was done with my food , I wanted to order a drink, she took her time returning to the table and then asked if I was ready for my check? Nope, I was thinking about ordering a drink but the good feeling immediately disappeared. Will absolutely not be returning.
Next level vegan pizza is made here! Literally, next level! And the lime cheese cake is piece of heaven.

Bummed because I LOVE it here…. Just ordered a $26 pizza (it’s personal sized) and for some reason, the mushroom carnitas were burnt to a crisp. Charcoal broiled. The whole pizza tasted ashy and burnt. Such a bummer. I’ve had this pizza so many times before and loved it. Gross.

Amazing customer service and atmosphere. We ordered an açaí bowl and a Mediterranean plate. You can taste the freshness of the ingredients. Parking garage entrance is on 5th Ave and they validate.
