Had a nice lunch here. Kelp noodles impressed me. They had a great resilient but soft texture. Just like a cooked noodle, but apparently it is raw. My kale salad was nice too great dressing. The entrees were reasonable at $13.00 each. The only thing that turned me off was the pricing of the large orange juice ($8.50! POW!) and... More

The staff was incredibly helpful and filled with happiness. What voices they had, two people celebrated their bds while I lunched, the singing was beautiful. The food is stellar and so healthy. I do not like to drive out of my area for food but I would for this food. Make it a priority to support a restaurant that promotes... More

This mildly posh restaurant is without a doubt the best vegan restaurant I've had the pleasure of visiting. You will have to play along and order the "L.A. Zen" names of the dishes --don't be fooled-- every offering is quite delicious. The food is authentic and healthy. I am adventurous, I am whole, I am luscious. Yes, these are the... More

I had read great reviews ... and some average ones! - but a friend highly recommended it, so off we headed - and I am so glad we did! The restaurant is bright, welcoming and has a lovely energy. The staff were friendly, and very helpful. They were relaxed and felt so right for this setting and cuisine. I am... More

Real organic , local vegan bliss here. All healthy stuff that really affects your system. Nice concept with bliss, harmony and peace being served cermonially. Had the I am Renewed wheat grass and so did Russel Brand and his "yogi".

After being given some misinformation about making a reservation, not having to, and showing up at the time recommended, we could not be seated for about another 30-45 minutes. There is certainly alot to be grateful for in the world and I believe in abundance, including the large portion...I had this amazing polenta and mushroom dish special...but when hey say... More

Pretentious to a ridiculous degree... All menu items are some form of "affirmation" that is meant to make one feel better about themselves. How about some FOOD that will do that?? I have been twice, each time with a group of four, and have tried over a half-dozen of their dishes. Bland lifeless, boring and plain would describe most of... More

I have no idea why people love this place so much, the food just terrible. and if that is not enough it is incredibly pretentious. all the menu names are are aphorisms "I am wonderful" and "I am powerful" if that does not make you sick the tasteless food will. I would sooner eat dirt that ever go here again...my... More

Came to this place with some work associates last Friday because it is kind a close to my business place. Really a nice place to hang around and have some foods. But the food quality is not something to cheer about; I found they charged higher than similar places in the area. I order grapefruit juice as a reviewer recommended,... More

As long as you are okay eating vegan, this place is great There were a huge number of entrees to choose from, some with ingredients I'd never heard of. We had the "I am humble" dish with quinoa and lentils which was very hearty and tasty. The "I am whole" was delicious although I didn't recognize many of the ingredients.... More
