This was the best vegan sushi I've ever had. They had a 2 hour wait but it was definitely worth the wait. If you like sushi, I would recommend you to check this place out. It's sooo good. Next time I'm in CA, I'll visit again.

RIP VIVI VEGAN :(I'm soooo sad this place closed during COVID. They had some of the BEST vegan cakes I have everrrrr tried. People would drive from the valley just for their cakes, in LA language, this is so significant - it says a lot lolTheir food was also bomb.com. Ughhh their burrito bowls were to die for. Idk where to get my local vegan fix now /:

Permanently closed. For lease sign outside. I will miss their cakes especially the coconut blackberry and the lemon saffron pistachio cake.

Amazing cake at this location. So sad they closed during quarantine. The area was small and the service was a bit awkward, but otherwise to go orders are really great and the chocolate and red velvet vegan cakes are literally amazing.

I came here because of their high rating and reviews. They have good selections of pastries and cakes with everything. The Nutella oreo cheesecake was amazing. Also, their Nutella latte was a perfect blend between coffee and Nutella. The staffs were friendly and attentive. I'm glad I found this coffee shop. A must-visit for all coffee lovers!

This place has amazing food which is why I'm willing to pay good money and drive all the way from the valley, well yesterday we placed an order on their website they took our money when we showed up doors were boarded and locked. If y'all are closed you need to post your hours and not accept people's money, eating out is a privilege but so is having loyal costumers in a city full of vegan restaurants. No matter how good the food is I've never had a restaurant take money from my account while being closed. Still haven't heard a response through any platform. I wasn't the only one either. At least 6 other people were waiting with me in the hot a** sun for 20+ minutes. Unless y'all change something quicc you're gonna end up loosing your customers

Outrageously overpriced for what you get. Has definitely gone down hill during the past few years, what a shame.

How can you pay $17 for a vegan burger and yams and still be hungry? This place will show you how. Very callous and unwelcoming reception upon entering. Although the place was empty, I asked if I could be seated upstairs because it was cold and rainy. I was told by a woman at the counter that would be fine. But she handed me no menu and when she finally decided after 10 minutes to come upstairs and take my order - she realized she'd given me no menu. So it took 1/2 hr. from the time I walked in to get food. Then it was a huge disappointment. Very small vegan burger for almost $17 and just a few slivers of avocado. The side of yams was cold and tasteless. A couple of slivers of purple cabbage was on the plate - I assume for decoration. Not once during or after my meal did anyone ask how anything was! They acted like they really didn't care at all. Which added more insult to injury on top of the bland, over-priced, mini-meal. Don't waste your money or time. There are far better vegan restaurants in West LA that actually act like they appreciate your business!!!!

A beautiful upstairs area with a surreal view of Santa Monica and the kitchen through a tall and skinny window. Their vegan cheese was not the best I've had, but it is very comforting to know that there is a place where you can get healthy food.

The food is decent. Potatos were cut in huge pieces which affects the eating experience. Service was absolute terrible - young girl.

1. Besides us and one other customer in the building, 5 people in the kitchen, it took 15min for someone to ask for our order. 2. Nachos seemed like they had marinara sauce, Mac and cheese tasteless, chicken pesto cold and bland. 3. Never did someone come and ask how we where doing. You know when you hungry ANYTHING taste good, well not here. We were Starving and this was not cutting it. We would of had better luck at Whole Foods, Man.. I think we would of had better luck at Del Taco.

This place is a hole in the wall but that doesn't mean it has to look like one, but it does. After I ordered my veggie burger, I washed my hands in the restroom and it was un-tidy. As I walked past the kitchen, I was disgusted by how messy things were and if any inspector came in at that day, they would have gotten many demerits. Dirty pans and dishes were lying above and below the work stations. The rack that holds food was was not properly covered and exposed to the elements of the bathroom and back door. Yet, there were 4 employees working and the 2 ladies at the front were just standing around. Luckily, I did not get sick from my food. The burger was good but the salad had a weird taste and was wilted. I didn't eat it. I will never go back there.
