The Venice restaurant has an indoor dining area and a relaxing and cozy garden with a wine bar outside. I was glad I brought my sweater and left the kids at home. This is just the kind of place to be thankful we can be outside on a sunny California day in December.
Fortunately, their food is absolutely worth it. I thought their cheese plate was complete perfection with the savory plant based nut cheeses, fresh and dried fruit, and handmade crackers, and gherkins. My husband is a little more picky about vegan cheeses and left me to enjoy this one on my own.
The flavors of this carefully constructed tower came together seamlessly, and as a self-proclaimed junk food vegan at times... many times, we really enjoyed this raw and healthy plate.
I ordered the Spicy Udon noodles and was extremely pleased with my choice. There were beautiful purple radish slices, and tempeh sausage accenting this dish of noodles in a sauce unlike anything I had ever tasted and infinitely pleasing in its complexity. I love spicy food and wouldn't consider this too spicy for someone who likes a little heat. Both my husband ate every last bit of our meals, savoring them with the safely vegan wine and enjoying our afternoon immensely.
I wish we had room for dessert and I hadn't drank all my sugar for the day in beautiful glasses of red. Everything we tried was wonderful and worth coming back to try more of the menu next time we head north!
I'm glad I was able to make this trip up to LA and everything fell into place for an impromptu date at this amazing all vegan place right before the holiday. If you are ever in the area you should try it! I'd love to hear what you think.
