This was my first time here, and I will make this a regular place. Such kind people and such a nice place with, you guessed it, such excellent food.

Got the Ying Qi menu. Everything was super tasty. Highlights were monkey buns and sweet and sour mushrooms. Also ordered biang biang noodles - tasty but with they had more toppings. A bit high price/portion size.

Men & beasts is arguably in my top 5 vegan restaurants in LA. The food is amazing but lacks a certain wow factor for what the restaurant is trying to place itself as. I love it overall but taking 1 star off because the ac was broken and there was a bit of a staff shortage during my last visit. Regardless I would return.
