Nice vegan place, expensive though. - Edit
It is a great location, with a lot of space inside and outside. For the parking there are only 3 spots for free, now if you park on the street where there is some places as well, it's only 1$ per hour.
Read moreThere are great people around, the staff is very helpful and friendly.
When I went there on a Monday evening, the choice was rather limited. Just a few drinks and salads. Now still a lot of desserts.
I took a big green juice, which was big and very good.
After which I took a big kale salad with avocado, which I found rather small (now I was quite starving at that moment).
I then tried out a few desserts and have to say that the tiramisu was really my favorite. The staff mentioned it as being completely raw, now with the taste I experienced, I'm not so sure.
I had a good experience and just did find it a bit pricey. I understand that food is not cheap, now around 70$ for juice, salad and a few desserts was for me personally pretty heavy.
Pros: Great vegan food, Lovely people, Nice place
Cons: Quite expensive

It is vegan! I have their new cookbook, Love is Served. Almost all the restaurant items are in there and all their recipes are vegan. What items are you referring to that you think are not vegan?

One of the best! - Edit
After visiting the Venice location I came to this location and again from beginning to end this place was incredible. The wait staff are knowledgable and happy to help and the kitchen staff know how to make amazing food!
Read moreWe ordered the eggplant burger and tacos. Devine! We were even supplied a ingredient booklet of everything on the menu so we could rule out all food no nos (which between my friend and I we have a lot of).
Cafe Gratitude appears to be consistent with their great level of staff in all areas. Very happy customer!!!
Pros: Extensive menu , List of ingredients
Cons: Too expensive to eat here everyday (I wish I could

Really Freakin Good - Edit
My absolute favorite vegan place to eat. Great ambiance, nice staff, many options, amazing food. I could seriously go on and on. Literally everything here is delicious, you cannot go wrong. If people hype this place up, it's because they seriously deserve it. You pay a pretty penny but it is all worth it.
Read morePros: vegan, so many options, pretty clean
Cons: wish they were everywhere

Interesting Place, good Healthy food! - Edit
Something to say about LA. If you go to a real vegan dinning place than they really care for good healthy food. Whole food not too oily often with raw food kitchen options.
Read moreI was very happy to go in this restaurant and got tasty great good food!
I didn't know so much about the background but the waitres give us a tip with the question of the day "where are you grateful for?" After a little chat he told us about the philosophy from the restaurant. And than we figured out how much love is in this restaurant.
Good place to come back

Read moreit's that good !
these people here understand what means vegan .

this city has a problem , too many excellent vegan places. a luxury problem that makes me feel comfortable.
Pros: fabulous menu variety, first class food, service with a smile
Cons: extremely popular place so busy , could be little cheaper, not a walking distance from centre

Can't go wrong with them - Edit
My boyfriend and I came here for dinner while visiting and had a fantastic evening. We've been to the Venice location before, so we kind of knew what to expect. This time we tried out different things - the raw collard wraps, the corn tostadas off the seasonal specials, and raw mushroom pizza. Everything was delicious. The food was light and refreshing, and they used 100% organic ingredients (or at least so they claimed). Yet, they managed to keep the prices very reasonable. Did I mention they had amazing desserts? We got their signature tiramisu and I dare say it was quite possibly one of the best desserts I'd ever had. Alternate bites between this and the super-dark cocoa truffle sent us to a state of bliss.
Read moreThe place wasn't very big and could get filled up pretty fast. Try and call for reservations if you don't see any openings online - that's how we secured our table.
Pros: Reasonably priced, Healthy, delicious food

Delicious food, lame menu item names - Edit
The kelp noodle dish was amazing, but I can't remember what it's called because everything on the menu has an unrelated affirming name, like "I Am Amazing".
Read morePros: Delicious
Cons: Not inexpensive

Vegan food and drinks - Edit
I had read about this place on happycow when it first opened years back and have dined here three times so far, most recently Sept 2013. Here's my Cafe Gratitude Los Angeles review update.
Read moreThe scene here is always busy and noisy. It's a popular place, overflowing with diners both on the outdoor dining deck and inside. It's located on Larchmont, very close to Melrose Ave. The decor is modern and trendy with clean lines, dark oak tables, and bright with tall glass windows.
From the starter menu, I've tried the "I am connected" guacamole and flax crackers. The crackers are spiced and crunchy.
For mains, I've tried:
- the "I am elated" raw enchiladas served with a creamy chipotle coleslaw, $13. Interesting taste with a sunflower nut filling.
- the cooked "I am transformed" corn tacos with brown rice black beans and side salad, $11. Yummy.
- the cooked "I am fortified" bowl of quinoa topped with sesame-ginger sauce over steamed seasonal greens, $12. Warm and hearty.
- the "I am heavenly" polenta with a tomato sauce, $13. Satisfying.
From the raw specialties, we've tried the hemp pesto kelp noodle (forgot the name), $13. Very tasty, nice crunch to the kelp noodle, a bit more salty than I like.
Overall, the food presentation is nice and the taste good. The restaurant gets very busy on the weekends, so expect a wait. Or you could find a seat at the bar.
For dessert (everything is raw), we've tried the tiramisu cake, $8 or 9; mint chocolate pie, $8 or 9; and the "I am grace" smoothie (coconut milk, almond butter, date, vanilla bean), $8.
While the sweets were not cheap, the food tastes good and healthy.
Pros: smoothies, nice space, menu variety
Cons: gets pricey, juices are pre-made

What a vegan restaurant should aspire to be - Edit
I was AMAZED by Cafe Gratitude. First, the greeting at the door was kind, warm and welcoming and by more than one staffer! They showered my gf with compliments on her vegan shoes. The place is just amazing, brand new, stylish yet comfortable. The menu contains many healthy cooked items that are all customizable. Everyone is so conscious about various methods of vegan eating. The tacos and veggie burger were both of top notch quality. I found myself eating every last morsel of veggie on the plate. Don't miss out on the I Am Luscious date/fig/cacao/hazelnut milk smoothie for a treat, they'll split it for two!
Read morePros: everything! , highest quality of food, amazing location

tasty and healthy - Edit
We checked out Cafe Gratitude for a late lunch on Saturday and it was still pretty busy, but we had no problem getting seated. They have indoor seating as well as an outdoor patio where we sat. Overall, the decor is clean, modern and sleek. They have a small parking lot, but it was full, so we just parked on the street. They also have a sit down diner counter inside as well as a little store area. I saw honey for sale in the store, but the menu and the waitress both noted that the food is vegan.
Read moreAS for the food, each table already has a water bottle on it when you arrive. The menu is separated between starters, raw and cooked items. We started with the "I Am Grounded" which is roasted potatoes with a spicy nacho cashew cheese. The potatoes were perfectly roasted and the sauce was very creamy, but definitely on the spicy side. We also shared a "I Am Eternally Blessed" shake which is a espresso milkshake and it was extremely yummy! For entrees, we had the "I Am Fortified" (roasted veggie bowl with kale and quinoa) and the "I Am Extraordinary" (a BLT panini). The bowl was very flavorful and the BLT was very unique with sauteed maple coconut. We ended the meal with the raw tiramisu which was very good as well. All the food was tasty and healthy. We left filling full, but energized. We highly recommend checking out this latest addition to the LA vegan scene.
Pros: tasty and healthy, raw and cooked, great shakes
Cons: small parking lot
