Los Angeles continues to be an epicenter for vegan and vegetarian restaurants. The scene has advanced far beyond bricks of tofu sprinkled with nutritional yeast, growing to include everything from vegan Vietnamese restaurants and pizza joints to fully vegetarian tasting menus. Today, outstanding options exist for practically any plant-based craving, from vegan Reubens to eggless egg sandwiches — and that’s to say nothing of the longstanding vegan and vegetarian food found in Thai, Ethiopian, and Indian cultures. Perhaps the best thing about Los Angeles’s vegan and vegetarian scene is that omnivores will enjoy the meals as much as those who avoid meat altogether. Here are the best vegan and vegetarian restaurants in Los Angeles.
