This [censored] is wack. - Edit

Think of a negative Californian stereotype. This place is it.

Cons: Expensive , Slow service

Tasty, small portions and pricey - Edit

Ordered a bibimbap bowl with added avocado, which tasted fine but was a pretty small portion for $19. Additionally, despite having an option to check "make it vegan" on the online ordering platform (ordered this for pickup), the bowl still came with a fried egg on top.

Pros: flavor

Cons: price, didn't make it vegan

One of the best, no question - Edit

We absolutely love Little Gem. Since it is a completely dairy-free restaurant, anything without animal products is automatically vegan, which makes choosing easy. Everything being gluten-free serves that need across the proverbial board. And refined sugar-free means the desserts aren't quite as guilty of an indulgence. Simply love everything we've ever had here. Can't say enough good about it. Very special, very modern, very hip. Reasonable prices, fast service, fun, stylish atmosphere, and delicious food. What more could you ask? Oh, restricted diet sensitive and easy to manage as well. That just tops it all off.

Pros: Excellent food, Fast service, Food-sensitivity friendly

Cons: Can be a bit loud

Decent vegan options - Edit

Many of their menu items use eggs but they do have several vegan options (1 bowl, 1 plate, 2 small bites in the lunch menu) clearly marked with V.
I strongly recommend SQUASH & KALE ALFREDO (cashew cream, purple cauliflower, shiitakes).
MAITAKE MUSHROOMS ON BEANS (heirloom beans, tuscan kale, tomato stew) was also great.
Unfortunately, HUMMUS W/NON BREAD was not vegan.

Pros: Decent vegan options, All gluten/dairy free = great for gf vegans, Great atmosphere and service
