My husband and I are not vegan but saw a lot of gluten free options so we decided to go. We were so pleasantly surprised by everything we ordered. The flavors were wonderful, decent portion sizes and prices were reasonable. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Tommy our server was very kind and helpful! Definitely get the bang bang broccoli and matcha cheesecake!!
Perfect venue for vegans, as it serves only vegan food.
Quiet place with pleasant ambience.
Service is too good and quick with smiles and of course guiding for the dishes too.
Food is too delicious.
One can enjoy mocktails to cocktails.
We enjoyed firecracker (Sushi), Quesabirria , Udon noodles a lot. Complementary desert was surprised for us ss it was my son’s birthday.
It’s enough spacious , so we didn’t feel like crowded.
Must visit restaurant.
We went here for Easter dinner and the whole place was amazing. Everything was vegan so we ate Family style and tried all the good stuff. The bang bang, broccoli and the smash avocado roll were my favorite. Be sure to order everything and share so you can taste all that they have to offer. The view was really nice even from inside you could see the marina and the interior of this place is just gorgeous.
Beautiful spot in Marina Del Rey. I had the Quesadilla / Birria plate with some extra ‘steak’ and side of avocados. The presentation was excellent and I appreciated the caldo to dip my quesadillas in. I also ordered a side of the spring rolls which were very tasty as well. I Would recommend for a great date night or business lunch or dinner as the decor and vibes in the building are on point and the staff was very attentive.
The most beautiful restaurant! We ate outside and the setting and backdrop were magical. The bang bang broccoli was recommended by our fabulous waitress, it was amazing. I normally am picky about broccoli texture and am not a big fan but this so flavor packed and had the best little crunch. We also enjoyed the oyster mushrooms and amazing sauce, the roasted corn had a decadent sauce. What a fabulous experience, we will be back!
