One thing that is consistent is the portion size! Check out these Asada Fries: https://yelp.to/QwFTIFddpU Loaded with beans, plant-based Carne Asada, pico de gallo, guacamole, chipotle cashew crema, and salsa. Eating this was like reuniting with a good friend I haven't seen in a while. So yummy! I also really dig this food hall location! Easy parking, lots of places to sit (indoor or outdoor). The convenience alone may increase interactions with Cena Vegan more frequently.

We also ordered pozole, asada fries and their incredible horchata to tame the spice. Their pozole was sooooo good! The broth was rich, flavorful and I fully enjoyed every single bite. This was easily one of the best, if not THE BEST pozole I've ever had. The tamale had excellent flavor as well and the masa was the perfect texture. Their asada fries were awesome as always and we had to get a couple of horchatas which has a perfect and deep cinnamon flavor. The service was awesome as always and so was the food. We will definitely be back soon!

    This establishment is a MUST TRY I will definitely be going…read moreback with my family I came here with my husband on a date and it was such a beautiful and thoughtful experience We made reservations before checking the closing time and we didn't realize they were about to close until we were already seated and ordered. It was the most private and intimate date we ever experienced. It was so thoughtful and sweet of them to still take us as guests. They did not rush us and was so attentive and friendly throughout the entire experience - seriously unmatched service The chef making the pasta table side said we came at the perfect time because it does get extremely busy The appetizers, main course and dessert were all a hit. Everything so flavorful and hit all the right taste buds. We are coming back to try the mozzarella sticks and pizza with our kids Probably one of the best restaurant experiences we've ever had both on service and food taste

There is plenty of parking in their lot or on the street. We ended up talking a lot and our poor server came back often to see if we were ready for drinks or appetizers. Thank you for your patience. We ended up splitting a bottle of wine and ordered the caprese. The caprese was so fresh and even had pesto in the middle. It was a great start to dinner. We were even given rolls with butter as well. We actually chose this place because they have a cheese wheel and no one ended up ordering that. They also were very attentive and refilled our water without us asking. I got the rigatoni a las vodka with chicken, and my two other friends got the baked rigatoni and the fettuccine Alfredo. Our dishes were delicious and perfectly seasoned. We also ordered the chocolate Gelato and tiramasu for dessert. Those were a perfect night cap to our dinner and catch up session. The restaurant is deceptively big and had a whole back area, I am guessing for large parties. It was very clean and we were able to catch up without any issues. I definitely recommend coming here for the food and excellent service.

He said it was hard to get good vegan options in the area. I'm not vegan, so I ordered the chow mein, orange chicken, and cha siu, and I was very pleased with my food. The portions are very generous. The price is very reasonable for the economy and also for a small business. Meat was a little crispy and perfectly tender. I enjoyed it so much that I went back the following day. Good food, good service, my new go-to for fast casual Chinese food.

We always make the drive out here almost an hour every time as we're not from the area. Last week, there was long hair in our chowmein. We didn't see this until we ate it at home and it was buried underneath everything. Disgusting. Today, we ordered their vegan popcorn chicken and it was EXTREMELY SALTY. As in very, very salty. Like the chef went crazy and doused the entire batch with MSG. It was SO SALTY that it was inedible. Only ate a few pieces. We tried to like it but couldn't eat it. It raised my blood pressure immediately and had to stop eating. We returned it for them to remake it not salty. They were nice enough to do so. Had to wait an additional time for them to remake it. However, the second batch wasn't as bad as the first one, but was still on the salty side. The first two times we've been here it wasn't salty at all. I'm not sure who was cooking today, but they went crazy with the salt. The second batch was still bad, we didn't want to wait another 20 minutes for a redo so we left. Needless to say it ruined the appetite and barely ate anything. Also, the vegan popcorn chicken wasn't consistent the last two times we ate here. Last time the texture was different and it looked different. It was either cooked differently or was a different brand that they used. This time, it was EXTREMELY SALTY. Cooked twice and was still salty. We've been coming here to support the small business, but not sure if we'll be coming back anymore because of this. It's been inconsistent every single time. Not to mention the hair we found in our food that we forgot to mention to them today 8/1/26.

I initially got it because curry chicken sandwiches always have a sweet element and most places do raisins or apples. Here, they did peach, and I was like, 'damn. I want to try this.' But when I bit into it, the star of the freaking show was the peppercini!! What!??! That vinegary balance with a tiny kick. Mmmm, yeah. Super good that I ate way too much in one sitting.

Sandwiches are quite large, big enough to split between 2 people if I'm being honest, but nothing I would complain about. Egg salad was great, never felt heavy despite how large it was, but I also enjoyed the Uptown Club, thickly stacked with each component but felt wholly balanced with whatever was pickled and the tomato. I did find the meatball side to be simultaneously too salty and too sweet, even though you would figure these would cancel out. I did enjoy the looseness of the actual meatball, and the crispy shallots on top were a wonderful addition. Would love to revisit, would be a perfect pit stop for any picnic or lunch occasion.

My favorite is the mexigogi taco bc the sauce and the way they cook their "meat" didn't make me feel like I knew I was eating vegan food. They have burritos, burgers, fries, nachos, and tacos with some dessert options. I'm glad there's a Mexican food place for vegetarians bc I feel bad they my gf has limited choices at most Mexican restaurants that don't have a good protein base. Service was quick for pick up and there's a few tables inside to eat. 10/10 would recommend.

One girl here was awesome- so nice and sweet and worked hard to keep the restaurant clean. And was sooo attentive when we had questions or needed anything. The girl taking our order was okay..not helpful as it was our first time here. I got the mexgogi burrito. I Was really excited to try a vegan Korean fusion burrito....buuuut... Was really disappointed...lacked flavor. I didn't even taste a lot of the ingredients and it was a tad dry. The green salsa they serve on the side helped give it some flavor. The bulgogi was tasty but since the pieces were so small, the bland rice and beans took over. Total bummer. I did taste the jalapeño but not a ton of siracha eel sauce or cucumbers. (I forgot cucumbers were even in it...) Seats aren't all that comfy...soo prolly best to get it to go. If give it another shot...just order something else.

Also ordered the fried oysters- I'm a little biased here because I prefer them raw so they weren't bad but I can do without fried or baked style oysters, just not how I roll!

They do give rice at the end to help you soak up all the leftover flavors. I got the tofu veg mazeman and was incredibly surprised with how flavorful it was. It was so delicious. I did take the kale out of it because it seemed like it wouldn't fit the flavor profile and I think it was a good call. No additional sauces or additions are needed. Highly recommend stopping by the next time you're in the area.

I'm not a fan of pork, so I love that they have beef options for things such as bacon. This is probably the most authentic deep dish pizza that you're gonna find in Los Angeles. They have so many crazy flavors like Carne Asada and Mediterranean and all of them are amazing. However, my favorite is the supreme, which is packed with loads of cheese, sauce, and plenty of meat. It's about $25 for a small pizza with four slices however it is extremely filling. I was initially unsure about the prices, but once I tried the pizza I was convinced that it was worth it. The downside is that this place shares a small lot with 2 other businesses. If you're planning on coming, make sure to account for time to find parking. Also, it takes time to make a deep dish pizza so order at least 25 minutes in advance.

Definitely needed crushed peppers. Maybe my palette is wanting a bit more kick from garlic or peppers. Good just not a 5 for me and wifey. Definitely we will try again. Maybe next time we will try dinning in so we get the meal pipping hot.
