Delish! One of the rare vegan spots that seems to do equally well with vegans and omnivores alike.

Stopped by and was impressed ny the nice atmosphere, good food, and good service. Dishes came out quick however it got a bit slower when we ordered desert. The tables made you feel very close and cozy. Would stop by again.๐ Updated from previous review on 2026-07-03
So good. It's hard to do Mexican vegan food better than this (speaking as a Los Angelino, vegan for 14 years). Highly recommended.
An airy, appealing space with a creative vegan Mexican menu. It was a budget-stretching splurge for us, but worth it for a special occasion. The best dishes were the starters: the picante tamal and a bright, memorable watermelon gazpacho. Of the mains, our favorite was the huevo burrito. Updated from previous review on 2026-06-30
The first time I ate at Jajaja’s LES location many years ago, we walked in unknowingly and sat at the bar and got nachos and drinks. The server asked what my friend and I thought of the “chorizo” and we told them it was amazing and they began to tell us all that it was made from and I had to stop them and clarify it wasn’t real meat, because I had been totally unaware. That’s how good this spot is. Since then, their locations have become a go-to spot with friends regardless of their dietary preferences.
I’d also like to call out that we did a group brunch here for Pride, and the check that they send is itemized, making money requests and sorting super easy. They also threw in some things for us when our food took a little long. Truly amazing service!

Amazing experience. Super chic atmosphere. Very kind service. Food was amazing. Had black beans and sweet potatoes. Cooked to perfection. Sweet and savory. Quick service. Reasonable prices.
This review applies to every location!!! Consistently delicious food, amazing and kind staff, incredible music, and absolutely gorgeous decor. I’ve loved every server I’ve ever had at Jajaja and most recently I was shazaming a song as I was leaving and I didn’t catch it. One of the workers saw I was shazaming it and screenshotted the song for me as it was about to end!! They go above and beyond every time. My absolute favorite place to go when I want a nice meal.

Loved it. Good vegan food. My favorite is buffalo tacos.
We had dinner on a Saturday night. It was busy but we were able to get a table without a reservation. We had several servers during the evening and all were great. Our food was delicious. My favorites were a mushroom sopes appetizer and a roasted corn side. Both of those dishes were memorable. My entree of jackfruit enchiladas in mole were fine but I would have preferred a brighter, fresher filling. The desserts we wanted were sold out so we got a coconut confection that was very good. The one real miss was the mango tamarind cocktail. It should have been good but they used an old-tasting mango to make it. We should have sent it back. Updated from previous review on 2026-06-21

Jajaja is always consistent. The food tasted very good, the nachos (w/ guac added) were elite + the chimichanga was tasty too. Service was nice and efficient.

Wow, the food was very good and super authentic Mexican. Staff was very welcoming. The service was very very slow though. I think I waited for 25 mins for my order (Salad ans Taco). Good portion size.
