“The chicken strips are amazing, the chicken sandwich are amazing. I've had so far the hot honey, mild, and original. I would say that the hot honey would be the best, still need to try the other flavors. The mild was ok, it was more of the seasoning instead of a sauce which was kind of disappointing, but still enjoyable. The fries were decent, but to be fair it would've been better if I would've eaten the fries then and there instead of waiting to get home. Overall, the service is great, I ordered online and as soon as I got there it was ready for pickup. Great vegan chicken spot!“
“Waa passing by and wanted to try the non-dairy soft serve. My friend ordered the Acai bowl. Everything is fresh and in limited quantities as the staff kept the menu updated as to what was still available. We were able to try sample juices. I especially liked the strawberry basil drink. Parking in this outdoor mall is scarce. Always a challenge bit this is a nice place to grab a healthy drink or snack and sit outside.“
“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.“
“I got the mushroom carne asada bowl and the hibiscus drink. I’m not vegan but this is one of my favorite restaurants in LA. The owner is lovely. The food is delicious and portions are big! These bowls aren’t just rice and some toppings, it’s a great balance of every ingredient. The drinks are perfectly sweet and refreshing. The seating outside is comfy and relaxed. I recommend this to anyone local or visiting!!! Check them out!“
“What a great restaurant. The food was delicious from the appetizers, main dishes, deserts and drinks. We were a party of 13 plus 3 under 3 for my wife's birthday. From the moment we arrived, the owner, Fred, met us and made sure we were well cared for, the same care he gave each table. The staff never rushed us and made sure everyone's needs were met including getting the kids orders out quickly while the rest of us celebrated. This is a rare find in today's restaurant world and our whole family looks forward to visiting and dining there soon. Thanks to Fred and his wonderful staff.Kid-friendliness: Our kids ranged from 3 months to 12 years. Except for the 3 month old, the 5 other kids were served quickly so they weren't waiting and melting down when the parents got their dinners. A real plus!“
“let me start by saying this is the BEST vegan Ethiopian food i've ever had. i have frequented a lot of Ethiopian restaurants and the veggie platter combos just don't compare to Berbere. the atmosphere is so calming and refreshing and the ambiance is amazing. the staff were quick and efficient as well as attentive without being annoying. the food was served fresh AND hot and the flavors will excite a party in your tummy!! i went here with my mom and we shared everything. to start i ordered the et tacos and let me tell you the reviews for the tacos were right on the money. i never thought id like a taco that wasn't traditional but these made me rethink tacos as a whole. the flavors were so powerful and delicious. honestly it's just best if you're reading this to just try them. no amount of words can describe the flavors. for the main dish, we ordered the eat the rainbow with red lentils, yellow garbanzo beans, purple cabbage and potatoes, and kale. although i loved everything the KALE was the star of the show. it really surprised me how freaking delicious it was. i mean it was tangy but also seasoned just right. cooked to perfection if i do say so myself. to drink we both ordered the blackberry (could've been blueberry not sure?) mint lemonade and it was refreshing. i didn't feel guilty drinking it at all. for dessert i ordered the sublime confection and it was superb!! it's an interesting dessert to describe but it had banana and chocolate and ice cream and that was enough for me to order. the banana was not overwhelming either. i ended off dinner with a hot cacao and i burned my tongue so badly but it was so good i didn't even mind it. the cacao was so rich and thick. it was a nice treat to end a wonderful dinner. all in all our experience here was everything and more. i cannot wait to go back soon because it's right near my job two blocks away. side note: it is on the pricier side but i promise you won't feel robbed or cheated the portions AND the flavors are worth every damn penny. berbere is a 10000/10.“
“This place was on point... I have been following them from Florida.... waiting to come see my son in LA, so I could check them out.... Everything was above my expectations.... the snap of the dogs.... the spice of the hot link.... the chili was really tasty and great add on the dog.... Great job to the staff and even got to meet mom... a beautiful woman with lots of stories and spirt for life.... Thanks for the great visit....Vegetarian options: Lots of Vegan options also.... my son had it and said it was great....“
“My son and I popped in for dinner because we were staying close by. We're not vegan, but I am gluten free and we do enjoy vegan options from time to time. We ordered a gluten free pizza to share and I was afraid to eat it because the crust was unlike any gluten free crust I've ever had. I didn't believe it was gluten free. I double checked with the waiter. He assured me it was gluten free. I ate it, but still had my doubts. Haha It was THAT good. I wish we were local so I could have it more often. Their basil lemonade is really good too. We're hoping to visit the area again in the future and will definitely hit up this spot for lunch or dinner.“
“I have ordered from this place a couple of times just this past week! Everything has been amazing. I'm a vegan chef and I can be picky. But if I could give this place 6 stars I would. Even with delivery the food arrived fresh and amazing.“
“Love everyone at RFG! Had been a few times but decided to use their health competition for some new year motivation! They were always super supportive and being able to jump in and grab meals to supplement my attempted meal prepping was such an easy and delicious way to meet your nutrition needs! Highly recommend stopping by for great people and yummy meals!“
“Omg so so so so good. All vegan donuts are fresh and made to order. I appreciate the local ingredients. I was supposed to attach a photo with this review but I ate them all in like 2.5 seconds. Also had the fizz drink and it was *chef's kiss*“

“Tive uma experiência maravilhosa no Oakberry de Hermosa. O atendimento foi incrível, an Alex nos recebeu de forma muito acolhedora e simpática, explicou tudo sobre o açaí. Ela também compartilhou suas dicas de toppings favoritos, que foram um grande sucesso. O açaí estava delicioso, e a equipe foi super atenciosa. Definitivamente, um lugar para voltar!“
“This had to be our first stop when getting to LA, very close to the airport which was super convenient! Very clean, and delicious options. We got the “Best Sandwich” and it lived up to its name! Lots of fresh juice options, grab and go food items. Love the vibe and the owner is very friendly and welcoming! Highly recommend.“
“Clean, cute, good service, yummy. I got the Bachos which like a Jamaican nachos. I never had Jamaican food to know but I liked it. Salty for me but I don't add salt to anything and the Frito type chips already come that way I think. I got the lentil as my protein, which was like crumbled falafel. The cheese sauce was like a salad dressing texture and flavor. Reminded me of Cesar salad dressing. I think I found a raisin in there and I didn't mind. Would definitely come back. Thanks for feeding this vegan passing by the area.“
“Purple protein smoothieSuper cute atmosphere with a clean bathroom (faucet has hot water ?)My smoothie was sooo delicious, tasted amazing but somehow not too much sugar and came in a sick glass jar?!Staff was really nice as I was early afCan’t wait to sit in sometimeDef recommend, from vegan/vegetarian to poke! Everyone can get good healthy food“
“This cozy restaurant has the best Chia Pudding And their Raw Jam Yogurt I've ever had!! You can’t go wrong with any of their items on their menu… they all taste amazing!! A must go location for clean eating, having celiac and wanting to eat organic vegetarian friendly meals, I wish I lived closer to this place… I visit this location every time I’m in town.“

“I really loved the restaurant and it’s food taste.They have buffet and alakat style.I really enjoyed nonveg buffet especially dosa and fish.Biriyani and other foods could be improved. **No taste**Worth for its money and an atmosphere is simply best.You should give a try and give a thumbs up if u like my review.“
“Very large eatery near the beach that offers a healthy choice of food to choose . I wasn’t please that when we walked in the Thin Body Waitress did not look our way or even acknowledge us so we just sat down at a table and flag down the other Short Body Lady who gladly assisted us. Other than that the Food is always good at this location & Long Beach where I go 99% of the time.“
“Food was good, even though we were not aware it was plant based until we started eating. We dont frequent plant based or vegan restaurants, so i dont know, but seemed very pricy for me. Family of three, burgers, fries and drinks was around $75. It was a nice experience even though we didnt realize it was a 100% plant based restaurant. Check that off the bucket list ?“
“Wow! I’m traveling from Denver and being vegan I was immediately drawn to Vegan Sushi in Santa Monica. I ordered #17 The Volcano Roll! Wow wow wow. Best vegan sushi I’ve had. It’s full of flavor, mouth watering, just the right amount of spice. If I lived here I’d be a regular! 5 star!!!“
“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.“
“Came here without knowing that it was a vegan ice cream place, but I wasn’t disappointed at all! The fruit flavors are really spot on and it tastes pretty healthy as far as dessert goes. I also enjoyed the mochi topping, although the texture was closer to tiny pieces of Turkish delight.“
“The pasta at this restaurant was absolutely delicious! The noodles were perfectly cooked and the sauce was rich and flavorful. The service was also top-notch and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a tasty pasta meal.“
“The Grain Cafe in Culver City on Venice blvd did it again ! Every time I try something different,,, and let me tell you , they never disappoint. I ordered for delivery it was a wet burrito in green sauce ! I love the vegan chicken ! Everything is delicious . Also the guy who answers the phone is always so pleasant, courteous, and professional. For someone that is going vegetarian, I always find it easy to eat something I am craving without the meat . Thanks guys“
“Went here yesterday for the Oscar’s party and it was such a hoot! I LOVED the puppies they had in front and that they care for rescue dogs, the food was incredible, the Bingo was fun and watching the Oscars on the big screens felt awesome as well! Definitely recommend coming here for events (eg I look forward to watching the World Cup here eventually) but would also come again for their nachos alone lol! Also the heaters were great once the sun went down!“
“Delectable culinary-grade pastries and desserts. All are vegan and they fill the hole that was missing in the vegan dessert field. Now with gluten-free options. Perfection!Vegetarian options: All veganDietary restrictions: Non-dairy, no eggs, with gluten-free options“
“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 ! “
“Instagram brought me here for the breakfast burrito and it did not disappoint. I ordered the sausage breakfast burrito on a GF tortilla because I have to be GF. I am very grateful for that option or else I would not be able to try this burrito. The burrito is LOADED with tater tots, just egg, sausage and a chiptole creama. Although the area you pick up seems sketchy its not. I appreciate what they are doing here and the concept is great. Will def come back but I would suggest a bit more egg in the burrito because the burrito is 80% tots.“
“I was introduced to Oakberry when I went to Rio de Janiero. I was delighted that they had one here!I ordered the acai bowl. It tasted just like the one in Brazil, so it is very consistent. It's so good especially on a hot day. I like to add peanut butter to mine. It's very refreshing.This is at the Howard Hughes center so there is plenty of parking. I believe it's free to park for the first 30 min.“
“This place is incredible. I dined here with my vegetarian son twice in five days, but I’m not a vegetarian. I didn’t miss the meat whatsoever. The food was seasoned so deliciously that it was simple to eat healthier. The texture and flavor of their “meat impostors” will trick your palate! My only criticism was the bathroom was not exactly the cleanest! Given the quality of the food, this seems like an easy fix!Vegetarian options: Nothing bland here!Parking: Several parking spotsKid-friendliness: Space for childrenWheelchair accessibility: Space for wheelchair or walker“
“So, my friend chose this restaurant because she's vegan. I am not. It was an hour from my home and I arrived starving. I was greeted nicely by the host and he was very patient with me while I flip flopped about whether to sit inside or out. Decided to eat in. Waited ten minutes, still no friend. I look at her message again. The lunch was the following week! Arghh! My lovely server, Graciela, walked me through the foreign menu and we landed on nachos. They were delicious. It's street parking, which I hate, but overall it's a nice place. But I wouldn't drive an hour for it.“
“Tocaya is so cute inside and out and the food is great. It is modern Mexican and a lot of it is super healthy, but don't let that stop you, it is also fantastic. The service is nice and friendly. They are there for you and they get your order right. The place is always so clean. You can have it delivered or do take away or dine in. We like to to dine in. It is just a very relaxing place. Our favorite thing at Tocays is their bowls. I love the taco salad, which is gluten free and has achiote chicken, kale & romaine, avocado, grilled corn, roma tomatoes, black beans, cabbage, red onions, tajin tortilla strips, cilantro, queso oaxaca and a wonderful roasted poblano dressing. Their kale and quinoa bowl is also super yummy with adobo tofu, organic baby kale (lots of it), quinoa salad, garbanzo beans, lime pepita seeds, lima beans, pico de gallo, sliced avocado (add more please), vegan chipotle jack & red wine vinaigrette. Their tacos and chips are also great. We like their salmon taco with charred tomatillo rice, lime crema, serrano frita salsa, and cilantro. Now the tacos are pretty small so you will want a few. Also try the tinga taco with chicken tinga, crispy fried onions, and lime pepita mole. This one is spicy so if you are not a fan of spice order something else. They also have super burritos. We just love this place.“

“TLDR: Small, hip, relaxed outdoor meet up juice/açaí spot with healthy options for everyone- especially Vegans.Reason: mutual meet spot/contact point to meet up with family.Space: it’s small! Very casual. They’ve made it a cute slice of a private paradise with the plants, faux and barriers from the beach breeze. Easy walk from the pier. Not a ton of seating, available.I would not recommend this spot for digital working too much light and I didn’t see anyMenu: Juices, smoothies, and bowls! Great for vegans. You can edit what you’d like as well. I believe toppings are extra.Taste: AMAZING. I was SO satisfied with my order.My experience: the gal working was very sweet and did make an error on my order. I ordered Peanut butter wave bowl and she gave me a Hawaii bowl, but was convinced I ordered the bowl Hawaii. At first didn’t seem to want to help with that, but changed her tune quickly…and for that I go back to 5 stars!Dietary restrictions: Vegan“
“This is a fantastic hidden gem with rolls that in my opinion rival real sushi. We tried the dragon roll (favorite) treasure roll and crunchy tiger. We appreciated the complex layers of flavor and sauces. The service too was amazing and we felt for a while like we were back in a Kyoto sushi bar. Must visit in LA if you’re looking for unique cuisine.“
“Wanted a quick bite before a long LAX flight and stumbled across LA Vegan. The area wasn't great, but inside was nice and clean. Very small. The food was amazing, so flavorful and fresh tasting. We got the lunch specials and they came with so much food!! The vegetable soup was full of good veggies, and the orange "chicken" was very crispy. The women who was working was so kind and the food came very quickly. We can't wait to go back next time we are in the area!“

“Had such a great time stopping by here. Snagged some snacks, an oat milk latte, and the chickpea tuna sandwich which was 10/10! I’ll definitely be back to work in the little back patio area. The plants are a nice ambiance and all the employees were super friendly.“
“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 “
“Great tasting juices and great staff This was my first time at pressed And Joshua and Emerald made it easy to understand my opinions they exceeded my expectations and delivered outstanding customer service definitely will be returning to pressed. Thanks“

“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 wasn’t sure where to leave a review but I wanted to share my experience. My first impression of you was that you seemed very sweet and passionate about what you do. I sampled my first vegan taco and decided to get one taco to go. As soon as I sat down and ate it, I was out the office to order 3 more. Granted one more would have been enough since the serving size was hardy. But they were so flavorful and the ingredients paired so well together. Overall, I recommend 10/10 for food and customer service.Vegetarian options: I wasn’t sure where to leave a review but I wanted to share my experience.

“Best meal I've had in years. Every once in a while you stumble upon a place like this. This hits my sweet spot for a restaurant. Nothing pretentious or fancy for no reason. Just super high quality food, prepared with care and creativity. Every dish we had was excellent. Just the right balance of flavors and textures: not too salty, sweet, or strong. Everything cooked to perfection - fried mushrooms were just cooked enough on the inside but not overcooked, and perfectly crisp on the outside. The kabocha squash was the perfect texture. We loved the chunky cut cucumber dish, unique! Lobster miso ramen was so delicious and creative! Who has ever heard of that? So much I want to learn from this chef. Even the plain brown rice was perfectly prepared. You can taste the quality in the ingredients, probably local and organic. Service was perfect, just attentive enough without ever interrupting. Top 3 most memorable meals I've ever had. I get the sense the chef here could have Michelin stars if they wanted that, but have opted for a less stressful and pretentious operation. I'm so glad they chose this path. Truly fantastic experience. Had a wonderful date with my girlfriend!Dietary restrictions: Dedicated gluten free, 0 reaction.“
