Pura Vita

It was my first vegan Italian dining experience! My colleagues and I really enjoyed everything we ordered. Service was great too. A lot of meter parking on the street since it was on a week day. Will Definitely come back.

This is such a hard review to write. As a vegan I want more food choice and restaurants dedicated to great food. And while I am sure this restaurants intentions are great, for us the food was a real miss. The overuse of garlic, the pasta imported from Italy that was so underwhelming (as an Italian and frequent visitor to Italy I speak from experience) was simply not ok. At least making fresh pasta for the prices that are charged here is a must in my book. Finding something other than garlic (which in Italy you can find lots of vegan fair in the south, and very little garlic is used) and using really fresh ingredients seems like a must in LA where access to fresh tomatoes is so much easier. My partner and I wanted to love this place, but we left feeling dissatisfied and disappointed.

Amazing food. Our waiter Tom made wonderful recommendations. It was our first time there and everything was delicious! 💚 The food was so good we kept forgetting to take photos to entice our non vegan family members 😉

YUM. one of the best vegan restaurants in LA. Delicious from the start (mozzarella sticks) to the final bites (tiramisu). perfect place for a date night.

The food here is decent, but pricey (though many restaurants in West Hollywood are expensive). I got a special panzanella salad starter that was good, though pretty small for $16. Lasagna was good, and I liked the house made cheese in it a lot, though I thought the tomato sauce tasted a bit sweet for my tastes. Pizza was a bit greasier than what I prefer for Neapolitan style. I really love and appreciate that there is such a special vegan Italian restaurant in LA, though I do wish the food was a bit less expensive. The staff was wonderful! Very friendly and attentive.
