Incredibly delicious and sophisticated raw dishes - Edit
Wow. We are licking our chops after a stunningly tasty meal. We both started with soup: broccoli lime and veggie noodle which were fabulously seasoned, and they are steam warmed which makes the flavors dance on your tongue. Then we had the basil pesto pasta which was warm and sumptuous and literally melt in your mouth goodness and the flat earth pizza which was a symphony of harmonious flavors.

Fresh, good flavors & quality - Edit
Great variety, love the quality & freshness of the food. Everything was beautifully plated, too. The decor was bright and beautiful. Only downside was the food being cold (which comes with the raw food territory, but I wished some of what I had was more room-temperature instead of chilled). Overall good place for creative, raw vegan options.

Not a vegan restaurant - Edit
I was very conflicted giving this review but after seeing so many vegans writing glowing reviews on how may vegan options there are, I had to write something. If you’re a vegan that consider that bees are animals and that bee keeping is not only unethical but also believe that honey is a cruel animal product, then you will not think there are that many vegan options. There are a few and the staff is super honest and tell you which items are vegan and which are not. They have ice cream and not a single flavor was vegan because all of them had honey. Very disappointing. The other problem was the prices. $15 for a raw panini 🤨 $9 for a bottle of juice? I’m sorry but I’ve had better.
Read moreAgain, the staff was super friendly, professional and efficient. The food was served very fast and they were very accommodating. However, I don’t think I will be returning.
Pros: Some vegan options , Tasty food, Super friendly staff
Cons: Not a vegan restaurant , Almost everything has honey, Expensive

I hope my marriage is just as good... - Edit
Creative, humane, and uber-delicious! I am seriously deciding whether to relocate from Seattle to LA just to try all of the items on this menu.
Read moreWhat I had tried:
After the Tuna Sandwich and the Jalapeno Poppers, the Puablo Wrap was ordered for takeout. Every physical contact was a ride to flavor orgasm. They consumed my attention fully and left me wanting more even when it’s time to part. This is how polygamy happens. There are too many good options out there and you are either too indecisive or a lover of life. To be honest, Jalapeno Popper isn’t my type, but I forgive him anyway because I know he is objectively good.
Cons: I can be made poor by this restaurant

Fresh - Edit
Ordered for delivery, and was EXTREMELY impressed. The food all tasted SO fresh and delicious. Not over processed or bogged down with salt like a lot of vegan restaurants. I felt good after eating it. Much like when I cook for myself. We tried the jalapeño poppers, shiitake mushroom pasta, tortilla soup, the ultra violet smoothie, and the cacao ceremony smoothie. All were good. The soup was spicy and smooth, the pasta was creamy and rich, the smoothies were sweet (ultra violet), and hearty (cacao), and the jalapeño poppers were just fun. Lots of variety, and very fresh tasting foods. I’ll definitely be coming here again.

Great dinner! - Edit
We ordered 4 dishes for 3 of us to split and it was plenty of food. Everything was flavorful and delicious. I especially liked the kale salad and the pesto pasta. My husband is allergic to walnuts and they were so helpful making sure that everything we ordered was safe for him to eat. Everything is gluten free so I could eat everything on the menu...yay! It’s a big menu and I’m eager to come back to try other dishes.

Awesome Raw Food - Edit
I never seek out raw places, but we were nearby for lunch. The menu is huge, and it took me a long time to decide. I went with a warm quinoa bowl with cashew cheese, pepitas chorizo, guacamole, and kale. It was delicious. Each component tasted great, and combined they were amazing. It was filling and nourishing. The staff was laid back and patient with me too.

This place is incredible! Went in wanting a small dinner, ended up getting soup and dessert as well, because the food was so delicious and the staff was beyond friendly and offered recommendations and samples. They were super sweet and helpful, and now all I want to do is go back to try more of the food :)).
Read moreThe menu is pretty big, and everything's made in-house: burger patty, tuna salad, pumpkin seed chorizo, ice cream... all so delicious!
Love the vibe and decorations, too. "Eat clean, live dirty" is a great slogan :).
I'll stop now, but I could go on for a while about why I love this place.
Pros: Food is delicious, Amazing, friendly staff, Great quality, reasonable prices
Cons: Can't think of anything, It's too far from where I live

too legit to quit - Edit
Hands down the best vegan spot we found in LA. Everything was amazing. The "tuna" sandwich was fantastic we couldn't believe everything was raw!! There was even a slew of RAW vegan ice cream (gelato) options. For real the only non vegan item is honey. They are happy to substitute it out of the smoothies. It didn't seem to be in any of the main dishes. They are also all gluten free and their only soy on the menu was in the miso. VERY friendly and very helpful. Will defiantly go back.

organic, raw, glass bottle reuse - Edit
Love this raw place in DTLA! Los Angeles needed this so bad. All our raw vegan joints have gone cooked fusion. This place does have honey in some of their smoothies so vegans be aware. Everything else is vegan and delicious. The salad bar is brilliant, the space is huge, the decor is welcoming to all lifestyles and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of food - I've found my new favorite spot!

Best Raw Food In Los Angeles - Edit
I had heard this restaurant was amazing, and I finally got a chance to try it.
Read moreI first noticed all of the cool artwork adorning the walls.
I ordered a raw vegan sushi roll, a portabella mushroom "burger" and tried a few scoops of their raw ice cream.
It has been a sad couple of years for raw cuisine in LA, as mane of the restaurants have closed, but this new offering is better than most of the raw food restaurants that closed.
The chef studied at the famous Cordon Bleu cooking school, and she truly knows how to make your taste buds dance.
I highly recommend this restaurant!
Pros: Best raw veg food around, Cool ambience, Raw Ice Cream bar

Good Raw Food - Edit
Saw this on HappyCow and hopped over to give it a try. Here's my Wild review.
Read moreStreet parking is scarce in downtown, so we opted to just fork out the money to park in a lot. The restaurant is on a corner with large glass windows. The inside is quite spacious and great, actually. There's table seating as well stools at the counter.
We ordered several dishes to try: the pasta supreme was well-flavored and served warm; the burger was okay; the Azlan bowl was spicy and tasty with cooked quinoa (the one non-raw thing); the dynamite raw nori rolls was surprisingly enjoyable (has avocado and coconut meat).
We also sample their ice creams and a few juices, and all were very good.
The prices are moderate, 2 or 3 dollars less per dish than other raw places like Cafe Gratitude and The Spring.
