In Short – This high-ceiling university watering hole is an integral part of campus life for veggie UCLA students. A quick jog from school grounds, the place has Bruins on both sides of the counter. Tempeh, seitan and soy proteins tangle with recipes of the surf and jerk (spice) craze. Snacks rule here: Industrial-size chili fries are topped with beans and "cheese," and the Bali surf burger has a golden tempeh patty at its center. – –

REVIEW FROM CITYSEARCH's 3BUCKBITES DICTATOR

by KRamos

Being vegan doesn't always mean tofu and celery sticks - at least not with Native Foods' sweet potato fries. This vegan-food-only restaurant is bound to cheer you up whether you're a plant eater or not, with pictures of friendly animals on the napkin dispensers and signs asking you to kindly leave your milk products at home. The sweet potato fries are a new creation and not yet on the menu, and while less sweet than others I've had, they are made from fresh sweet potatoes and are crispy and delicious: the perfect snack to make you feel better about the world.

flavorful vegan

by dthstar

along w/ RAW and RFD, this place is definitely up there in terms of serving up the most tasty 'vegan' organic healthy cuisine. it's fairly small and the decor is nothing to talk about & there's no parking (as it IS in westwood) & they don't deliver, but for me to put up w/ all the above suggests that the food might be the only thing that actually makes up for all that it lacks, and it does. even my friends who don't like 'vegan' or healthy food have all raved about this place, so that says a lot.

  • Pros: great-tasting vegan
  • Cons: food's the only thing good about this place
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

LOVE this place.

by abd1350

Being a vegetarian, I am always on the lookout for good places to eat, and this one is definitely my top so far. I have never had a bad meal here...and for the carnivores, the fake chicken actually tastes like chicken (no joke), maybe even better. I love their bowls. The service is great, the people are so friendly, and the atmosphere is very fun. If you haven't tried Native Foods yet, go!
