“Great food and really nice looking restaurant. I was a few minutes later than expected picking up my food and the server mentioned they were just about to call. Very friendly and courteous service.All of the food was great, but the Bang Bang Broccoli and the It’s a Hit (tempura jalapeño) were especially special (intentionally saying special here twice).Will definitely be back again and happy to be living so close by!“
“I am not exaggerating when I say that lunch at Mother Tongue surpassed our wildest expectations. Truly, if I could gave this place 10 stars, I would! Everything from the very friendly, efficient service to the wonderful atmosphere (just loved their decor, color scheme and relaxing background music) to the excellent food was outstanding! They made our wedding anniversary lunch really special! Recommend the delicious black kale salad and wild salmon bowl. Their yuzu pana cotta and soft serve sundae desserts are to die for!! Will definitely be back and highly recommend!“
“Great vegan restaurant in Melrose. The food has plenty of flavor and tastes fresh. Prices during happy hour are very affordable, and it’s a great for big groups to share bites and drinks. Atmosphere is nice, especially outdoors on the patio. The highlight of the evening for me was the olive oil brownie — a must try!“
“We came here for Easter Sunday brunch yesterday. It’s a cute restaurant with friendly staff.However, I expected the food to taste better…I ordered their classic breakfast pizza suggested by the server. First of all, it looked great. I’m not a fan of the fake bacon because it tastes like paper. After the first couple of bites, I realized the pizza was barely edible because of the amount of big rosemary leaves added in the pizza dough. I had to hand picked them out of the pizza to avoid tasting the ‘soapy’ rosemary flavor… and I love rosemary in general. Just not THIS MUCH. I asked my friends to also taste my pizza and they all told me I should send it back.Luckily, our server took it back right away and gave me the option to change to a different pizza.The second pizza I ordered was margarita pizza. It was pretty blend. But at least edible.I do need to say their menu is probably a hit or miss. My friends ordered the breakfast burritos that they enjoyed a lot. Which is why I’m leaving it 4 stars.Note: very limited street parking and $20 valet parking.Parking: Very limited street parking and $20 valet parking.“
“We had an amazing time eating here!! The food looked so good, we wanted to order everything but ended up getting the Mushroom Ramen and the Fried Udon. Both dishes were DELICIOUS and had a nice spiciness. The ambience, cute interior and service were good too - overall a great experience. Would really recommend!“
“Obsessed! Among a sea of fancy, loud pizza places in LA, Heirloom stands on their own merit. I drive quite a bit just to visit this spot. The pizza is fresh, balanced, and delicious, the place is comfy, and the owners are kind. My ONLY complaint is that they’re not open more often (I always crave them on Friday).“
“Not only do I go there on a regular basis, but I just rented the private room and back patio to celebrate my 60th Birthday Party! Special thank you to Emma! She managed my party perfectly. Emma was on top of everything every step of the way! She is smart and friendly and efficient! I could not have pulled this off without her! Thank you to Ceaser and Orlando as well for their help.I look forward to future events at this store and Laguna location!Dietary restrictions: Pizzas and sliders and Hummus are amazing!“
“I'm half Thai but not vegan, and I brought my vegan friend here. The food was pretty good in our opinion! We got Thai tea (good, considering it's vegan), egg rolls (just OK for me but I generally don't like restaurant egg rolls), and drunken noodles (pretty good). The dining room is tiny but nice and bright on a sunny day. Our waitress was friendly and patient while we looked over the menu. The prices weren't bad either, so definitely try it out if you like Thai food and are in the area looking for veg options!Vegetarian options: Everything is veganDietary restrictions: Everything is veganParking: There is a small lot in the back. I think part of Bennett has free 2 hr parking. About a block west on Cahuenga, there are metered spots (30 min, 1 hr, 2hr)“
“Every time we eat there, we are impressed by the overall quality of the food and service. Chef Arango delivers high quality food in every dish. Each item is extremely fresh and well prepared. You can also tell that the family really appreciates every single customer. I can't say enough positive things about them. I am honestly thankful to have a such a solid Indian food option right in the neighborhood.“
“Had the fundido and it was amazing. Loved the broccoli on top and the blue corn chips were perfectly salted. Taquitos were delicious. The chickpeas were so creamy and the flavor was spectacular Banana cream pie was so good. Crunchy and smooth at the same time.“
“Totally amazed by the great selection and quality of the food at lunch buffet. It was really good. They had chicken biryani, goat curry, chicken tikka massala, tandoori, chicken and so many other dishes. They also Chai tea and a good selection of sweet desserts. A gem of a spot and I'm glad I chanced upon it. This will be my go to for Indian buffet, authentic. Service was top notch too!!“
“Cute little fast casual place. The menu might be a challenge for someone who isn't very familiar with Indian cuisine. I was super happy with the plant based Chicken Tikka. The Naan was really good. Very good portions. Definitely want to come back and try more stuff.“
“Unique menu with lots of variety, wonderful staff, and sweet atmosphere. You find a table and the order at the counter to have dishes brought to you. The staff is very accommodating for vegetarian/vegan and gluten-free preferences. Some items are marked as such and you can ask for modifications of most dishes when you order. Loved all the drink options, with the choice of adding boba and swapping for non-dairy milk too. I found free street parking on Lucerne. Looking forward to returning.Vegetarian options: Very accommodating for vegetarian/vegan and gluten-free preferences.

“This is one of my favorite vegan restaurants. It's actually a Thai restaurant and it's so amazing. Start with the soup. It's so delicious and authentically thai. I've never had a bad meal here and it's definitely one of my staples for Los Angeles. Yes, it is completely vegan!Vegetarian options: Menu is all vegan“
“So good! I tried a number of menu items and loved each. The shrimp soup was perfectly spicy and packed with wonderful flavors, the appetizers (hot wings and chicken skewers) were outstanding and my entree - pad see ew with beef was just perfect. The service was ideal - helpful fast and informative. I'll definitely be back very often!“
“Wow. I liked Indimex before they changed management, now I love it! I wrote a review 7 years ago with a follow up 6 years ago pre covid. Remember when? During Covid and even more recently, I would order and have it delivered. But tonight I saw they were open and there was parking space right in front so I went in person. Wonderfully warm new owner, quaint dining room albeit small but remodeled and the new owner has plans for more. - feels more authentically Indian with a Mexican twist. Indian movie posters and music, colorful walls and tables. Their Chicken Tikka Masala sauce is the real deal as is the raita. Delicious. The chicken tikka masala quesadillas are reasonable and filling. I'm so glad they survived Covid and with this new management I'm excited to see what comes next. Have an adventure as I said in my original posting 7 years ago. Tired of the same old same old? Support local businesses. And enjoy!“
“Customer service alone brings this place to 5 stars. The owner is a sweetheart and checked in on us throughout dinner and gave us the best recommendations. The food was incredibly tasty, I had the vegetable biryani and vegetable samosa and both were so good. The food came out quickly and tasted fresh. The place is clean and the decor is so cute. Excited to come back and try more food!“
“I've been coming here for years, I can't believe I haven't written a review! I love their food. My favorite item to order is their mung bean pad thai, although I wish there was an option to get it with soy chicken or beef and not just tofu skewers. The tofu cubes are huge so the flavor doesn't really penetrate them. I like this dish because the noodles and veggies are flavorful. My family also enjoys cashew nut lover dish and the buddha rolls. Those are so filling, I can just get those and be happy. If you like thai tea, you must try it here. So good. One star off because parking is difficult, especially on weekends, and it's a little pricy for me. The good thing is that inflation has led to all restaurants raising their prices in the last couple of years, so I am more used to it and not as bothered as I used to be . Note: the seats are incredibly uncomfortable so if you dine in and have back issues like me, bring a cushion.“
“AMAZING!!! This place is genius and delicious. I wish it were located closer to home, but well worth the drive. Prices are great, food is incredible, and to top it off...VEGETARIAN!!!! I'm far from vegan and love Chinese cuisine, so this place giving me the great taste without the negativity of eating a lot of meat...perfection!“
“Very much enjoyed the food and experience here. Small quaint place with charm and authenticity. I had the vegan pad Thai which was well prepared, and the tofu and vegan chicken were tasty and nicely incorporated. Would love to try the curries next time.“
“Best Indian food I've ever had. Everytime I've ordered elsewhere since ordering from here I've been disappointed. My GO TO Indian spot & it will never be rivaled! I always get the veggie coconut curry, basmati rice, veggie samosas, raita, mint sauce & mango chutney, and the cheese naan. And a mango lassi & gulab for dessert of course. Consistent and delicious. Love yall!“
“Such an amazing gem. Wanted to eat after a night out but finding vegan and healthy food was tough. This was worth the drive! The food was incredible, so flavorful, all organic and vegan. So much selection. We are the grain pancakes with the tofu scramble, sausage and has brown and the waffle deluxe. Generous portions and well seasoned as well as they served it with date syrup.The hot chocolate with oat milk was the best I've had. The cinnamon was so fresh and not too sweet.The vibe is such a trip because it's like entering a portal with snoop dog on a wall and then Mayan woodwork art.Great service too!100% recommend and open til 12a on a friday“
“I could eat here every day. Part of decision on me buying a house was that it had to be within walking distance to a Backyard Bowls locations. And I kept that condition. It’s that good.The staff is always welcoming and friendly. They do get busy but they’re quite efficient.I generally get green bowl w almond butter on top or the island bowl if I’m in mood for something sweet. Perfect after a morning session of beach volleyballAvo egg toast is also brilliant. Perfect cooking of the egg and toasting every time. Wish they’d bring back the pb&j oat meal bowl“

“I love how awesome the staff are here it's like speaking to an old friend. Please come in and give them a try! I already tried their sandwiches, which is really wholesome and hearty. Their pizzas are thin crust, but very delicious. I've had the young and the go green!“
“Thanks to our fabulous server, Joshua- everything was perfect! Two members of our party had finished the LA Marathon and Josh went out of his way to make sure they got everything exactly as they wished. He treated them like Kings - which they deserved. The food, as usual, was fresh and delicious and fantastic. Major props to the whole kitchen crew for doing such a great job on such a busy day. Also- the grass fed beef in the true blue burger is amazingly tender and fresh. Only to be topped by the grass fed ice cream on top of freshly baked chocolate chunk cookies.“
“Jedric and Ashley were absolutely fantastic, and super accommodating and offered to easily change my crispy chicken sandwich once I discovered it had milk, because I'm lactose intolerant. Even though they already made the food Jedric very kindly refunded me.While ordering, Ashley made me feel welcomed, part of the burger lounge family, and did great recommending things on the menu which motivated me to try the chicken tenders. Having workers with personality is super important.Precisely because of the great customer service, I will definitely be back.There is a great atmosphere created by the staff that work here, and the food was phenomenal. The food was incredibly tasty. Hats off ? to the cook and the overall experience and people that run this place. Very clean.“
“I love this place. They have the best falafel I've ever had. The hummus and flatbread are so delicious. And the staff is always super friendly. I can't recommend this place enough. It's outstanding.Vegetarian options: Falafel, hummus, pita, Jerusalem salad, pickled veggies, harira soup.Dietary restrictions: Great options if you're eating a Mediterranean diet.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible.“

“I really Love the lamb chops, dolmas and rice meatball soup. I didn’t take pictures, I was so busy eating my food. My kids loved the chicken kebab. Service is great. As a Latina I feel a little shy when I’m trying different food but they are very nice people and food is delicious.“
“I can’t believe it took me so long to come here. The food was great. I got the Santa Fe chicken with fries. Perfect. The fries were my favorite. The service was great too. They made sure everything was good. Definitely becoming a regular here.“

“Put simply, my favorite restaurant of all time is Leonore's. I love it, and I can't say enough good things about this place. My favorite meal there is their soy chicken enchilada dinner, and I add a beet salad and a flaxseed tea. And their waitress Amy is terrific.“
“A very pleasant surprise near Universal Studios. We found a nice Indian restaurant.This nice restaurant serves some good favorite Indian dishes that you would be familiar with. The spices are perfect.certainly enjoyable. Medium heat is perfect and may be geared for the spice lovers thus choose accordingly if you are more adventurous they have hot and very hot options.The decor is nice and cleanThe dining room was packed with customers tonight. They are well situated from their long history at this location. The pricing is reflective of all this and is very good value.You will be well satisfied.We’ll be back real soon Royal Curry“
“I just tried the passion salad , the awake, and vibrant salad. I would definitely recommend this place. And that sneaky guy put some banana pudding in my bag, which I did not order, but OMG I'm glad he did. I will be ordering that banana pudding from here on out. It was amazing!“
“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“
“I am a meat first guy, kinda anti-vegan, and a burger connoisseur. This place may have had one of the best burgers I've had in my 40+ years on Earth. Staff is super nice too. Wouls highly recommend if you're in town.✌? From Chicago.“
“I am so happy I found this place!! This was one of my first times in Sherman Oaks, and I just wanted to find something to eat that would make me feel good and not run down when I’m on the go, so I’m stoked I found Harvest Bar. I’m not vegan but I love places that can make even a meat eater like myself love eating things like jackfruit nachos. The smoothie was delicious too and my friend got an acai bowl that was super fresh. Definitely gonna make this a go to spot when I’m over that way“
“Anytime I read about great LA restaurants, this place never comes up, and I'm not sure why. We've been coming here for years and have never gotten anything short of an excellent meal. We've only dined in once, but the service was fantastic and they made us feel like family. Highly recommended any of the fried rice or wing options. Curry is excellent as well!“
“We went in for an early lunch. Got to the store about 5 minutes before opening. It was a little brisk out. The manager saw us out front and let us wait in the lobby to get out of the cold. Very nice and unexpected. Our server was pleasant. Started with the cheese curd appetizer. It was filling. Grilled salmon was cooked correctly fresh and flavorful. Tried the vampire spicy pork tacos. Ordered three. They were delicious and filling. Took one home, not good reheated. Craving for good ol fish & chips. Nice batter and flakey. Upgraded to parmesan fries. All meals were delicious. Recommend a visit.“
“I had the 3 tacos combo plate. The tacos were good. I had the veggie, al pastor and carnitas. The al pastor was the best of the three. The rice and beans were alright. The portion size could have been a little bigger. The refried beans were a little bland and they charge $0.65 for salsa which wasn't great. That just seems a little petty. Overall I would definitely come back though.“
“If you are looking for a clean, great service, and good pho place this is the place to go! The place is very laid back and perfect if you're going with your love one or going to have a catch up with a friend. So far this is also the best egg roll we've ever had. I am definitely going back!“
“It was tasty, they really loaded the bowl up with lots of toppings. And for a great price. My only complaint was that the rice must've been stale because there were tiny hard bits that kept getting stuck in my teeth. However, I would still order again“
“Thai Blvd Bistro undoubtedly offers the epitome of fine dining in town. From the exceptional quality of their food to their impeccable service and pristine cleanliness, this bistro receives an enthusiastic recommendation of the highest order.“

“A small very clean Mexican restaurant it reminded me of places from my childhood. Nice menu choices and a selection of beers. Food tasted like my Mother and grandmother's, 2 fresh Salsas were moderately hot. Can't wait to take my sister when she comes to town.“
“Always love coming to Doomies when I am in LA. This is is one of my top fast food style eateries as a vegan. Everything I have had from here has just been so delicious and a treat to eat. I don't think I've had their desserts yet, but they are so massive I may not end my quick trip here without trying a slice.I had the pulled pork for the first time, and I was so glad to see 'not jackfruit', I had to try. Delicious!!Wife had the burger and she loved it as well. Cheese fries and a drink from the freestyle machine sets it all off!“
“Bollywood Indian Restaurant is home to my favorite Indian food in all of LA! My partner and I go here once a week and every time it is as delicious as ever. Not only is the food amazing, but the service is absolutely incredible!Nazirul, one of the employees, is the sweetest person! He knows our order by heart and always makes sure everything is to our liking! He really makes the experience a 10/10.The Chana Masala is the best dish there, paired with garlic & cheese naan - it's the best meal to exist! I urge everyone to try this restaurant as it will become your go to!Dietary restrictions: I'm vegetarian and find it easy to order here.Parking: Parking is great - either on ventura blvd. or in the back of the restaurant.“
“Delicious food, lovely service and the perfect place for a ladies lunch meeting. Chef had healthy vegan and veggie choices for those of us who wanted them as well as freshly prepared northern italian favorites. Ask for the Bread Pudding, it will change your life.“
“I love Greenleaf! I'm so happy the Century City location is open again <3. The food is consistent, clean, fresh and super tasty across all locations. I love the upgrades they've made to the CC location to give it a more, "stay and hang out" vibe. I LOVE that they have paleo options, and they are all GOOD! When I'm not on paleo, my go-to's are the "Cheap N' Easy" breakfast sandwich (lots of protein!) and the Hollywood Bowl. I've done dine-in, pick-out and delivery. Enjoy!Dietary restrictions: Paleo“
“Very close and very delicious. They are RELIABLE which is so hard to find these days. They are hard working and they listen and read the orders well. I like to call after placing online and they never seem like they are in a bad mood. All of this is important to me lol. Thank you for being near UCLA!“
“La La Lasagna is to die for and if I was dying, I would want this as my last meal. I'm not being hyperbolic when I say this is my favorite food to eat *ever* and I have a child-like giddiness when I have the chance to stop by this truck.Chef Michelangelo is the nicest man on the planet and I'm happy to give him all my money. Do yourself a big favor and RUN to get some.“
