We Loved the cauliflower wings, vegan pizza, and tons of vegan desserts options! Our family enjoyed the starters, entrees, and desserts. Service and staff were great! Ambiance was fun: it had a variation of a coffee shop/ chica bar and family restaurant. We loved LA experience vibe.

No added "service charge", appreciated. Certainly mixed feelings, our first time here since Sage decided to transition to a menu that includes meat. There are still numerous vegan and vegetarian items; if adding meat improves the chances Sage survives I am fine with the changes. Despite the sparse crowd service was on the slow side, pleasant when it was offered. You get the feeling servers are used to being able to chat amongst themselves and that there is friction associated with transitioning back to 'server mode". For food, I had the vegan "Bahn Mi Pezzolo". Since Bahn Mi is a sandwich, I'm not sure why they felt the need to (as far as I can tell) create the word pezzolo to communicate that pizza crust is replacing a baguette. Personally I'd rather have a nice baguette. The pickled carrot, kimchi, tofu, etc. filling was good and could stand on its own in a bow. Partner had the grain free bowl which was enjoyed. The patio dining was pleasant.

Four of us found our way here. 3:of us are vegans (not me). All 3 declared this to be their favorite meal of the trip. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We were out next to the cricket wall. Lol, seriously crickets a plenty. Thankfully they brought us a bottle of cold water, which helped us wait for a while to order. Do not be in a hurry here. Loved their blood orange iced tea. Others loved the lavender lemonade and sunrise smoothie. Child's tofu tacos, tofu banh mi and grain less bowls were all hits. My lemongrass miso ramen was giant. Lots of broccoli and spinach which I love. Broth was so so. And the ramen was just spaghetti with a couple accidental pennes lol. Kids loved their kid's vegan vanilla and chocolate shakes to go. And I bought them each a chocolate donut for breakfast which they said were good but there had better.

Wait...you can get your Vegan AND your meaty desires satisfied in one place?? Yes, you can. This formerly Vegan ONLY restaurant has now added meat options. If you're a Vegan or in the Gluten-Free realm, your wants are still more than well-represented here with myriad options. In fact, there are only a smattering of meat-based dishes to choose from but, the ones that they do offer are of very high quality. I get the sense that business matters to them as well. Our fries were a tad on the soggy side. After telling the waiter, he didn't hesitate to put in a new order for us and within minutes our new-and-improved crispy fries, hot outta the kitchen, appeared. The beer array is still robust as is the newly enhanced cocktail and drink-selection menu. What we had: VEGAN BURGER WITH AVOCADO SHREDDED CHICKEN TACOS (x3) FRIES HOPPY JUICY IPA (6.7%)

Very nice exterior perfect for a sunny day. The service is mediocre as they seem short staff in front, but they are so friendly once seated. You can tell they are hustling and I really appreciate that given the many customers to staff ratio. Menu extensive and you will be sure to find something to fit your style whether it is American, Asian, Mexican, or fusion. Portions are big, at least for me, and it is good enough to share if you want to make it to dessert round. The noodles were perfectly al dente and spicy if you like kimchi. Noodle bowl has kimchi inside while the eggplant had a spicy sauce. It was salty for my liking but nothing that a bottle of water can't do to help dilute. Restroom btw is tricky. I rather use the restroom outside the restaurant with a different code vs. the one upstairs (2 flights of dark narrow stairs) and that takes you out to another room. It was a horror show for me to go through dungeons just to get to the loo. So beware if you need a restroom break, use the loo outside the restaurant, especially for my ladies rocking the heels.

Some friends and I came here for dinner before a concert and had a good time. From my understanding this restaurant just went though a menu change where they started serving meat. I personally am not vegan, but will eat vegan if need be but it was nice to have other options as well. I started with a mocktail and didn't love the first one I had tried. They were nice enough to take it back and I instead got a lavender lemonade which was delicious. We ordered chips and guac as an appetizer and the guacamole was delicious but the portion was extremely small for the price. For dinner I ordered the burger which was pretty good. Again, it was pretty pricy and none of the entrees came with sides. My husband got bison tacos which he said were good. Overall this was a good experience. I'd definitely come back and try some more of the menu if ever in the area.
