Small family-run soul food restaurant in the Willowbrook area of South Los Angeles, fully vegan as of Dec 2020. Offers a vegan patty with vegan cheese in a few varieties (truffle soul, double double, smoked cajun creole); vegan shrimp po' boy as a sandwich or platter; vegan chick'n in sandwiches (truffle, Hawaiian bbq, spicy, jerk, Miami mango bbq); and additional options like cajun hot link po boy, chili with Parmesan corn cake, vegan shrimp & sausage gumbo, smoked cajun asada fries, fried chick'n plate, crystal soul tacos, and many more. Food is cooked from scratch so can take up to one hour to make - phone and online orders are highly recommended to minimize wait times. Accepts Zelle, Cashapp, Venmo, or cash. Black owned. Open Wed-Sun 4:00pm-10:00pm. Hours change frequently.

Food delicious, homeless not - Edit
The Cajun quesadilla my absolute favorite, but because of the busy location eating outside we had 3 homeless ask for money & while leaving 1 hit my shoulder me. Won't return due to the neighborhood sadly.

Why would you rate the restaurant low based on activity outside of it? It's not the problem of this small business.

Absolutely amazing - Edit
Definitely order ahead of time. Our food was so good- the jambalaya is spicy and delicious, bbq soul plate, collard greens, black eyed peas, corn cake… heaven. The catfish oyster mushrooms are the best I’ve had, hands down. Unique atmosphere full of plants- so glad we stopped by.

5 Stars Point Blank! - Edit
If I could highjack the night sky and deliver every Star in existence I would do so for this place. Stellar to say the least. The flavor they put into their food is miraculous. That gumbo especially. The vibe of the establishment is drippin with exotic plants and glistening Crystals. Their tip jar is a singing bowl which is a little extra but hey so is giving a tip. The soul plates are my favorite and I wish I knew how they make that corncake so damn bomb. The burgers make me forget about In n Out and that coconut shrimp Po Boy made me feel like I had a Creole girlfriend from Miami for a few bites. If you're ever in the L.A area and interested in Vegan I highly suggest you stop by and see if I'm trippin. Bring a non vegan friend if you must, they have something for everybody. Oh and their fresh juices! Garden picked passion fruits and herbs. This place deserves an award
