Delicious, fairly affordable, healthy food. My buddha bowl was really good and came out quickly. The restaurant is 100% vegan and they have several gluten-free options that are clearly labeled on the menu. Even my meat-eater friend loved it so much, she tried to recreate the bowl at home. Definitely recommend Native Foods!

🫑👍🏾👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🥑Native foods had an amazing assortment of meal. I think native foods is the top tier vegan restaurant in Los Angeles county. Native foods ended up closing a couple of their stores probably due to expansion issues or the pandemic. Native foods is amazing restaurant I think that anyone that is vegan or not vegan would enjoy this wonderful Cafe. The meal I chose was a delightful vegan chicken sandwich delicious with tomato ranch red onions and a wonderful fresh made bun soft as though cloud in the sky. 🥑Then the kitties had chicken tenders with french fries season to perfection. The service was good I would compare it to like a Sonic drive-thru wasn't really personable but you know when you're ordering vegan chicken and fries you're not expecting flamanian mignon vegan. Keep it in mind then whenever you eat at a vegan restaurant you're eating nothing but vegetables and these veggie heads are really really interesting sometimes. But we give this a five star because nothing in the world can compare to native foods another la vegan restaurant that is given my Michelin star.

I love Native Foods in Chicago, and was pretty excited to find this location in LA. The chicken tenders were crispy and tasted just like non-vegan ones, with buffalo, hot honey, and ranch sauces. Their vegan ranch is creamy and great. The sandwich I had included a nice aioli and potato chips under a pretzel bun, and the sweet potato fries were thin and crispy with a light seasoning. Their vegan grilled chicken totally pulled itself off as actual chicken.
Their vegan desserts are excellent, especially the oatmeal cookie pinwheels and the pumpkin cheesecake cup. It can be a challenge to find good vegan cheesecake flavors but they did it!
The ambiance is relaxed and friendly. I’d definitely go back to try some of their healthier options, too.

Pretty good place for food. I liked second floor, interior is simple, but clean. Nice atmosphere, good service, delicious food. We had Cauliflower for appetizer, and two burgers. Popping jalapeños was extremely tasty! Probably the best vegan burger I’ve ever had. Unexpectedly delicious was side of potato dill salad! Thank you for good experience!

Good vegan food and convenient location.
The order was fast and food was delivered quickly. The food tasted good. We tried different locations of native foods before and this was the first time we ate in this location.

I had one of the best tasting dishes I’ve ever had at Native Foods Cafe in Westwood. Native Foods is a chain offering counter-order, bring to your table completely vegetarian fair. A few other places do this in an upscale-ish fast-food environment and I think Native Foods stands out above the handful of competition.
So that dish: It was the “Southern-Fried Chicken and Waffles”. It was awesome. It’s a few weeks later and I’m still thinking about all these flavors. The Sriracha maple syrup (read that again and start drooling.) The perfectly textured breaded “chicken” mixed in with the perfectly cooked waffles. I will definitely have this dish many times in the future. I may cut this review short to go get it again right now.
My wife was excited about the Buddha Bowl - with sweet potatoes and shiitake mushrooms. But some of the sweet potatoes were undercooked and some overcooked. She thought it was a bit too rice-heavy (relative to the other ingredients) and the addition of the pineapple made the dish a tad too sweet. The rice was listed as “cilantro jasmine rice” but not many of those flavors came through and it tasted like plain rice.
Our kid liked the chicken strips though, he said, not as much as the ones at the similar style vegetarian chain restaurant. (But he’s 9 and his opinions change as often as leaves fall off trees in fall.)
The self-serve Watermelon Fresca was delightful. Both my wife and our kid really enjoyed the lavender lemonade that came with the kids meal.
Despite is not being a perfect experience, because of the many, many vegetarian options here, and the super-awesome-craveworthy “Chicken” and Waffles dish we definitely would come back.

Had the Crazy Good Grilled Chicken Sandwich, which is perfect if you like truffle flavoring. Everything here is vegan and I've never had something I didn't love.

Signed up for Native Foodie Rewards and received an immediate $5 off... grabbed up some vegetarian nachos for lunch (veggie taco meat is not vegan, but is delicious), which are (even at regular price) a full meal for less than $10?! I’m obsessed with Native Foods.

Delicious! I got the grilled chik’n sandwich and a salad. Nice big, open interior, with a second floor. Gf got the nachos. Perfect portions and temperature. All plant based meat is prepared in house. The texture and flavor of the chik’n was amazing and cooked perfectly.
We parked at the Broxton parking garage and took a short 5 min walk; much easier than try to find street parking
