Reviews 4.8/5

Ironrune 5/5

Delicious VEGAN food, as well as great coffee. The staff were also super friendly and that’s always a plus. We got the pizza and meatball panini, pictured with this review. Even non vegans can find something they like here.

Mark Pitts 5/5

Great food and friendly service!
One of the few all-vegan cafes in the area, and it does not disappoint.
They have a good number of selections on the menu.
I especially enjoy their paninis, salads, and shakes. (Their Avo club panini is pretty amazing!)
They have outdoor seating in the back.
We will definitely be returning here!

Silvia Spross 5/5

This is our second home. I’m not even kidding. We come here almost every day. The owners Sher and Mark are the kindest people and treat us like family. They take special requests to another level. My man Robert has crazy requests and Sher named it the RM Bowl. We love it here. The back patio is a little oasis within Santa Monica and it seems not many know about it yet. Yet ! And not to forget Jimmy the Parrot hangs out next door in the patio from the Pet Store

Harley Jones 5/5

Delicious! All organic. Our smoothie was sweetened with dates! 5 star. Definitely coming back

Roni 3/5

The BLA panini is long but thin and skimpy. Its also pretty tasty (which is why i gave a 3 star instead of 2) I also ordered cauliflower tater tots which was interesting. I dont think it’s worth 7 bucks though. They only give like 7-10 little pieces and it looked like they werent even cooked all the way. They were really mushy like dough. I had to cook them again at home. Not sure if i want to come here again and spend 20 dollars. Edit: costco has the exact same cauliflower tots for 7 dollars and its a 3lb bag.
