What People Are Saying About Govindas

Citysearch
In Short – Robe-wearing Krishnas welcome L.A.'s worldly sect to feast on blessed fare. An eclectic mix of conversation among surfers, actors and outspoken vegetarians ensues on the ample outdoor patio covered with red umbrellas. Inside, chanting music drifts throughout two dining rooms modestly decorated with religious statues and paintings. A mere $6 gets diners all-you-can-eat access to the rotating buffet that features items like pesto pasta and hot tofu salad. Quick bite options include traditional Indian sweets, and pizza and bhima burgers from the sandwich counter.
