50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Playa Vista

“Strong drinks, nice ambiance, great servers, but the food was just average.“

“I have been to several Hopdoddy locations in Austin, Texas, and absolutely loved them. So when I found out there is a Hopdoddy in LA not far from me, I really wanted to check it out, and it didn’t disappoint. It was just as good as the other locations I’ve visited.

I ordered the classic burger with cheese and a truffle fries. The fries were really good - crispy, flavorful, and topped with Parmesan cheese. The fries is what I really love here. it tastes better than in other fast food chains.
The sauce the fries came with was delicious too. The portion was pretty big, enough for 2–3 people to share.

The burger was great. The beef patty was big, juicy and tender, and all the ingredients tasted fresh. The bun had a slightly sweet flavor. The price is pretty good for this burger.

The restaurant itself looks great, it super clean with plenty of seating. There are lots of tables inside, including some with sofas, there is a bar in the center, and they also have a nice outdoor patio. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and they cooked everything pretty quickly.

Overall, I had really good experience. Probably one of the best burger chain in the US. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get some good burger.“

“We found Astro Pub randomly while looking for a new brunch spot. The ambiance is clean and vibrant with a energetic color decor .The service, was top notch! Bobby was our bartender and server! This man knows what he's doing and made great food suggestions and concocted best hot toddy that my girlfriend has every had in her entire life.If you are looking to have a perfect dining experience look no further Astro Pub will deliver.“

“Best food ever!
We had an amazing brunch experience at Hash. The food was absolutely delicious—every bite was perfection! Connie, the manager, went above and beyond to make our visit special. Her positive attitude and helpfulness truly made our time there so pleasant. The area is also really nice, with a great vibe for enjoying a meal. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Good! Service was a little slow but otherwise good. Nice place. Food and wine done well.“

“I love Tocaya. It is super clean, and it’s the only place that I know that serves blue corn tortillas, so that’s a plus! The food is super fresh and delicious! I wish the salsas were more spicy, but that’s all I can say! The staff is super chill and helpful.“

“I’ve never had a more pleasant experience than when I met friends there for great ambiance and wonderful food. Thanks ☮️DWR 🎵“

“We love this place and eat here twice a week. The owner, Peter hires only helpful employees. The food is fresh and consistently delicious! The salted caramel baklava cheesecake is the best dessert ever!“

“Absolutely in love with this place! 🍽️✨ The food is a beautiful symphony of flavors, and the atmosphere is just so warm and welcoming. The perfect spot for a cozy meal with friends or a special dinner. Every bite was a little piece of happiness. 💛“

“Didn't fail to meet our expectations. We had a table of 4 and we were good to go in just about 30 minutes. The noodles and meat were so good and the staff were very attentive. Our server, Evelyn refilled water and broth as well as bringing us our food. As a fellow food enjoyer I would definitely have to put this hotpot place up there it was so good. Very great place and I will definitely be coming back.“

“Warm, hands on and personalized service. A Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant…Food Made from Scratch, fresh, unique, different, and affordable. Highly recommended! The red onion focaccia bread with herb and Parmesan butter, added Burrata - best- seller, a must. The 3 day brined smoked fried chicken-different taste, with soy and Chiles, a must!!!The Peruvian pork belly with sweet potato , Criolla and crispy quinoa , love it! And the Grilled NY steak with green garlic chimichurri, chorizo aioli and pommes pont neuf, thick cut fries…my son prefers over the fried chicken.“

“The tasting menu is full of unique seafood dishes, and the portions are generous.“

“Everything about this place is excellent. The food is flavorful and clearly made with care, the service is kind and attentive, and the atmosphere is both elegant and inviting. A wonderful dining experience every time!“

“Excellent food and fantastic service😊“

“love it here. my family and I visit La often and always looking for affordable and delicious vegan food. this place did not disappoint. the staff was super chill and accommodating the food was so good and the portions were more than enough to fill myself and husband as well as our 3 daughters (7/11/17)“

“Wonderful service and outstanding food.“

“Came here after work for a little solo date night and it was perfect! I started with a happy hour glass of wine and a side of their olives while I read, which was such a nice way to unwind. I ended up staying for dinner and ordered the seasonal tofu curry bow, which was divine and bursting with flavor. To top it all off, I treated myself to their matcha chocolate cake, and it was the perfect sweet ending. Cozy vibes, great food, and a perfect spot to relax solo or with friends!“

“The signature dish is the crab in sauce, which comes in medium and large sizes. medium is two crabs with two bowls of rice, and large is three crabs. Compared with other Korean restaurants, the sauce crab taste is mild, and it will not be salty enough to explode in the middle of the meal and cannot continue to eat. The crab is fresh, not fishy, and the meat is firm, not squishy. The crab meat is also very full, the crab legs are full, there is no empty shell crab. The sea urchin rice is a little smaller but the sea urchin is enough. regular sea urchins are not particularly sweet, but they are fresh and worth the price. The sea urchin Rice bowl combo will be served with steamed eggs, runny eggs and two prawns in sauce. Raw marinated salmon rice is amazing to me. The salmon is marinated just enough to be flavorful, but not overly salty. The portions are generous. You can eat two bites of each piece of salmon.“

“Why go 3000 miles away it’s just as good as Pat steaks and they got a roast pork sandwich too“

“Delicious authentic Roman cuisine …“

“Our family had an excellent meal at Mother Wolf last night. The pasta was out of this world and the Italian wine selection was great. The decor is very nice and conducive to an overall excellent experience.“

“The food is phenomenal!! Everything is amazing“

“A combination of classic and delicious.“

“I recently purchased food from here while attending a conference in the city of Los angeles. It was truly fall off the bone deliciously seasoned chicken. The chicken was tender and juicy. It was a little difficult to separate out some of the smaller Bones from the half chicken but I got through it and enjoyed that I could rend the flesh with my hands because I did not have a knife and fork (I do not mind this it made me feel cool to eat it manually). The bread was spectacular and was baked to a degree of fluffiness that I have not experienced in another bread. I got it with hummus and pickled turnips which were pretty delectable, very toothesome and vibrantly colored. The sauces I chose were the tahini and the red sauce which were both nice accents on the food. I also got a delicious mint lemonade which was the perfect amount of sweet and tart with a nice cool mint flavor.

It is so difficult nowadays to find truly authentic Middle Eastern food, oftentimes it is just a poor imitation co-opted and misappropriated by people from northern Europe who think they have a claim to the land. That's why I am so glad you have gotten food from Jerusalem Chicken where I could tell it was cooked by people truly native to the land.“

“Visiting LA this week and had a fab time at the Clark Street Diner, excellent food😋“

“What a fantastic dining experience! We were so well taken care of, and the food was amazeballs! Definitely top of my list as my new favorite seafood restaurant. Elijah, the bartender was awesome and Katie went out of the way to make sure we had a lovely time. What an evening… I highly recommend this place.“

“The ambiance was intimate but lively. Great music playing in the background.

The service was great- Nina was so kind and offered great suggestions.

The food was robust with flavor and a generous portion.

The chicken bites were crispy, a little sweet and tangy.

The Jollof rice with crispy catfish was cooked to perfection. It came with black beans (delicious!) and sweet plantains.

The burger was good but definitely worth skipping and trying other menu items.

The house lemonade was so refreshing and not too sweet.

Overall wonderful experience. Will be back!“

“Call ahead! The wait at the sandwich section can - at times - be a bit slow & tedious and can cost you half your lunch hour. Plus I don't love the fact that their default channel is "Fix News". Still, the salad bar is fabulous. Also, Maggie and Ruby absolutely rock! :-)“

“Absolutely delicious food. Chulita Bowl was fantastic, hibiscus mimosa and latte were so good. Friendly staff too! Thanks for the wonderful brunch. 🙏🧜🏽‍♀️“

“The staff is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive without being intrusive, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve👍👍“

“Went there twice during our 2 day trip. Biscuits are amazing. Maxie was our server, and she remembered us when we returned! She was very sweet, and the owner came out and chatted with us about the history of the restaurant.“

“Beyond expectations! Best meal & service in at least 10 years. I’ll be back!“

“Such Wonderful atmosphere, food and coffee! 💖🎉🥳 They also have a super sweet display of gourmet treats!!! 🤩“

“Loved the experience - 5 senses stimulated. Coastal jungle (?) themed decor, zen-like music, and scented smoke that fully relax us before the meal.

Creative dishes with some explosive and unique tastes. It's more on the heavy and complex side which we found inspiring, and it's probably better to go with a drink to offset (can order separately). We also tried the juice pairing - while interesting, we didn't find it enhancing the tasting menu much.

Overall, we would come back for this experience. This reminds us of the experience at Central at Lima, Peru.

Btw, they have valet parking, but we came on a Sunday and could park on the street (no parking after 6pm Mon-Sat). Otherwise available street parking is 4 blocks away.“

“awesome customers service, delicious food and drinks! wonderful experience from the moment we walked in the door we were greeted as if we were regular patrons. George was our bartender and he was patient and helped us navigate the menu, David, the GM was personable and very accommodating, the Owner Chef Ray came out to say hello and grace us with a picture. phenomenal experience! thank you“

“An Unforgettable Dining Experience at Spago Beverly Hills“

“I like the food Jamil n actman is the best“

“Such a beautiful and amazing place! the food was superb and the service was top-notch. The only downside is that it gets crowded and even though we had a reservation we had to wait for 15 minutes. Overall, I recommend visiting at least once!“

“Tar and Roses was fabulous. The food was delicious. Scott was so attentive and never let us run out of water. We were seated out on the patio and it was so romantic. All the food was fresh and tender. Would for sure go again for another special occasion.“

“Delicious food and super friendly staff. I would highly recommend“

“Fresh delicious food. Child friendly. Great service.“

“Muy buen trabajador los a tendió muy bien“

“Really amazing and very good food. I was a table of one and was able to sit down within 15 minutes compared to usual hour long wait.

I got the HK style french toast, very sweet and more of a dessert but it was amazing nonetheless. Second item i got was the cold sesame noodle (no chicken) and i’ve never had this amazing dish before and it was life changingly good.

Funny story but they threw away my food while i was in the bathroom for two minutes but they apologized and gave me a free meal to go and pastry. I didn’t care that much but happy they fixed an error!

Will come back again def“

“Just tried MIRATE Restaurant the food was amazing! Definitely worth checking out if you love great flavors.“

“Fantastic meal at Felix! You really can’t go wrong with an Evan Funke restaurant. The pasta was perfectly made, and the flavors were spot on. That said, I do wish the menu felt a little more distinct from his other restaurants. It’s definitely in line with his signature style, so if you’ve been to his other spots, you’ll find a lot of overlap.

The quality and service are definitely there—the staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere is cozy but lively, with a great energy for date night or a special dinner with friends. Overall, Felix is absolutely worth a visit.“

“Stopped by for dinner to check out the place. We are having an event there in a few weeks. AWESOME EXPERIENCE. Food was wonderful, service was perfect, management went out of their way to be gracious and welcoming. Can't wait to return in a few weeks.“

“Great food and cocktails!! 🍸“

“I recently dined at Milo & Olive and was truly impressed with the experience. Every dish I tried was outstanding — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The seasonal menu offered a great variety, and you can really taste the quality in each bite. On top of that, the service was friendly and attentive, which made the whole visit even more enjoyable. I can’t wait to come back!“

“Excellents croissant français.“

“It was even better than I remember. I had the catfish po boy, chicken & waffles. The French bread, remoulade sauce & generous seasoning of the fish were delicious. I would definitely not consider myself a grits fan but the fried cinnamon sugar grits…so good. I can definitely post photos of empty boxes but other than that ??‍♀️. You’re going to have to order your own. Make sure you order directly on the restaurant site www.gritznwafflez.com. Signed up with my email when I ordered & got a discount.“
