Crossroads is one of our favorite restaurants. The food is delicious and doesn't harm animals in its creation. The atmosphere is absolutely lovely. And we have always had outstanding service at Crossroads. We love to go to Crossroads to celebrate special occasions. Last night my husband and I were celebrating the 25th anniversary of the day we met. Michael was our server, and he was outstanding. The manager, David, came over to say hello, and he was very gracious. The restaurant treated us to glasses of prosecco to toast our special day. It was an absolutely wonderful way to celebrate our anniversary. We love Crossroads! read more

We've been to Crossroads Kitchen many times and it never disappoints. My daughter treated my wife and I to an anniversary brunch and everything was on point. The Fig &Feta was delicious and the Kale Salad is our go to starter. For entrées, we ordered the chicken and waffles, the lemon blueberry pancakes, and the chilaquiles. All were very enjoyable. The chorizo sausage had a nice kick however, the sausage for the pancake dish very dry and tasted like cardboard. The service was amazing. Our reservation was at 1 o'clock and they weren't very busy, but multiple people assisted with running food and checking in on us to make sure everything was fantastic. read more

The delivery Bolognese was okay, but nothing like the thick juicy noodles smothered in meat sauce in the menu photo. The sauce was feh tossed with standard packaged linguine (not tagliatelle as listed) that tasted pre-cooked. The "umami flavor" I read about in a review was AWOL. If it had been $12, okay but it was $24. With a $2.00 "gluten free surcharge." read more

I've been here several times and it was one of my favorite vegan restaurants but after our last visit we won't be back. Our server was nice at first but throughout our time there she became increasingly condescending and rude. We started with the calamari, squash blossoms, and watermelon salad. The calamari was good. The watermelon salad was delicious but could have used double the feta and pistachios. The squash blossoms were so small and dry. The "cheese" inside was hard and tasted sour. We used to get them all the time and the recipe is definitely different. One in our group ordered a beer when we sat down at didn't come until midway through the appetizers. When we asked our server for it, she just said it was coming. For our entrees we got the meatball pizza, spicy rigatoni with chicken Parmesan, eggplant short rib, and bolognese. The meatball pizza was fine but not good enough to want to finish. The two pastas were the best but not that much flavor. The eggplant short rib was inedible. They basically just peel an eggplant and slap a giant slab on a bowl of mashed potatoes. It was so dense and chewy and slimy. We couldn't swallow it. We also ordered the truffle potatoes at the start of our meal and they didn't come out until we were finished with our entrees. When I informed our server, she simply gave me attitude and said to wait because they take longer to cook. At that point we didn't bother bringing up the eggplant dish because we knew we'd be dismissed again. We were very disappointed in the quality of food and the service. We'll be dropping this place from our roster of good LA spots. read more

Across from the photo frenzy at the Pink Wall, Crossroads Kitchen offers an amazing selection of plant-based pastas and small plates. The plush wood and leather booths and classic rock riffs create a soothing space. Eggplant Short Rib: The rectangular slab of eggplant is on the edge of firm and soft. The whipped potatoes are nice and creamy. The Bordelaise sauce is rich and savory from the red wine, shallots, herbs, and stock. Shimeji and cremini mushrooms add jolts of earthy flavor to the wonderful sauce. Parking: Go with the metered street parking. Most of the sidewalks in the neighborhood do not allow parking after 8 pm. read more

Crossroads Kitchen - Eggplant Short Rib - Vegan Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I would never step foot in a restaurant that was vegan most of my life. I thought there was nothing for me there. This restaurant i have visited many times and have had the most incredible meals I have ever had. Definitely magic going on. read more

It's not that Jamie W and I are religious vegans. It's just that at a certain point in a WeHo vacation, we start to feel guilty about our inevitable gluttony and proved that fear true by gorging at calorific spots like NORMS and Max & Helen's in the days prior. I saw mention of this vegan Mediterranean restaurant after I failed to secure a reservation at Pura Vita, a nearby vegan Italian spot we liked on a previous vacation (review: https://yelp.to/FHUmsvRN-m). It was a further walk from our hotel, but we had no trouble securing a table for two here. The menu looked mostly Italian, so we were quite pleased with the choices. Jamie ordered the $25 Spaghetti Carbonara, a fresh tasting, gluten-free rendition with bits of vegan gianciale, green peas and an impressive whole "egg" yolk on top (Photo 8). I must've been in a "meatier" mood and went with the $26 Tagliatelle Bolognese, another gluten-free delight. The sauce had a savory umami flavor anchored by chopped mushrooms, carrot, and onion (Photo 9). The pasta had a surprising al dente texture. We shared the salty-savory $14 Grilled Artichokes with olives, capers, roasted peppers, lemon, and mint (Photo 10). Although portions were just right, we still found room for the generous $12 Brownie Sundae with vanilla ice cream, fudge sauce, coconut whip, and brandied cherries (Photo 7). What a find. FOOD - 5 stars...amazing how savory delicious chef Tal Ronnen can make his vegan dishes, virtually indistinguishable AMBIANCE - 4.5 stars...surprisingly elegant and not overly packed SERVICE - 4.5 stars... Miguel is a smooth veteran, always on the spot when we needed him TOTAL - 5 stars...a worthy addition to the LA vegan dining scene...says this Bay Area interloper RELATED - Exploring West Hollywood?

I've been wanting to try Crossroads Kitchen for a long time, and I'm so glad I finally made it. While the ambiance and décor evoke the warmth of an old-school steakhouse or classic Italian restaurant, the food is anything but traditional. It offers a fresh, modern take on vegan Italian cuisine. Drinks & Appetizers We started with two cocktails: the Strawberry Girl (alcoholic) and the Let It Be (non-alcoholic). Both were excellent. For appetizers, we ordered the Moroccan Cigars, served with a light, tangy yogurt-style dipping sauce with just the right amount of heat. The cigars themselves were delicate, filled with plant-based meat, and lightly fried. Think of an elevated, artisanal taquito. A perfect lead-in to the main course. Entrées We ordered two dishes: the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka with the chicken Parmesan add-on, and the Spicy Meatball Pizza. Pro tip: absolutely add the chicken Parmesan to the rigatoni. The vodka sauce was bold and spicy without overpowering the dish, and the chicken Parm was beautifully cooked with excellent texture, a natural and well-balanced pairing. The pizza was exceptional. True to its name, there was a meatball in nearly every bite. It's topped with ricotta and dusted with parmesan, and we added red chili flakes for an extra kick. The crust is very thin and artisanal, and every component, the marinara, meatballs, sausage, ricotta, and parmesan, worked in perfect harmony. The dough alone is worth finishing every last piece. Dessert We ended with the Brownie Sundae, which was the one minor letdown of the evening. The ice cream appeared to have been pre-scooped, as it was quite firm with visible ice crystals, not ideal. The brownie itself, however, was absolutely delicious, though the portion felt a bit small relative to the dish as a whole. Overall, the sundae was just okay. I'd likely skip it next time and explore other dessert options. Service & Atmosphere The service was fantastic, and the overall ambiance was warm and inviting. The pacing of the meal was particularly impressive. Drinks, appetizers, entrées, and dessert all arrived at just the right tempo. Nothing felt rushed, and nothing lingered too long. Parking There is no dedicated parking for the restaurant. Crossroads is located on Melrose Avenue, a busy shopping district with heavy foot traffic and limited street parking. That said, we visited on a Sunday afternoon and found street parking without much trouble. If spots near the restaurant are taken, driving a few blocks into the surrounding neighborhood usually turns up more options, just be prepared for a short walk. Plan your arrival time accordingly to avoid any parking stress. Overall, Crossroads Kitchen delivered on every front. Creative food, excellent service, and a great atmosphere. Highly recommend, with the rigatoni and pizza as must-orders. read more

Disappoinnnnnntted!!! Pro-tip: if you must order the spicy rigatoni , order it without the chicken Parmesan !!!! This place is such a tourist trap; it's across from the 'pink wall,' so it's no surprise how much they can charge for .... Anything really. For their spicy vodka rigatoni with chicken Parmesan came out to an outrageous almost 40$ . Bare bones. No sides and gasp* they wanted morr compensation for Parmesan cheese (which is not a side but a condiment practically ) 1) the chicken Parmesan tasted weird. Yes, it's 'imitation' meat, but even for vegan sub meat it didnt even come close to other restaurants attempt to capture the essence and taste of meat without actually having it. I tasted onlt really the breading. The chicken almost tasted like a veggie butter spread . Definitely not worth the extra 10$ upcharge. The spicy rigatoni was just okay. To their credit , the noodle tastes homemade from scratch, and the gravy had an okay taste, but I ordered takeout and the dish was lukewarm .... If it's made fresh steam should be coming out of it still!!! Also the noodles were slightly over cooked .... The portion size for a 28$ dish is quite small. As evidenced by their unwillingness to offer Parmesan condiments for free reveals one of the most stingy restaurants ive ever encountered . They will nickel and dime you for anything and everything to increase the meal ticket . There are better vegan restaurants out there for a far more fair price. I probably won't be going back as I view their prices to be completely unjustifiable. read more

Crossroads Kitchen - 39$ for this is outrageous . Go to the grocery store (any) and do it yourself before you pay for this !!! - Vegan Near Me - Los Angeles, California

First time at this eatery. Crossroads Kitchen is a popular, upscale vegan restaurant in Los Angeles known for its plant-based Italian-American cuisine, offering dishes like pasta, pizza, and "chicken" and waffles that appeal to both vegans and non-vegans. It features a full bar, patio dining, and is praised for its creative, flavorful food, though some reviews mention inconsistent We were seated at a long table since there were so many of us. The staff was very accommodating. First time eating vegan food. Wasn't quite for me, but it was a wonderful dinning experience. read more

I really love Crossroads Kitchen! Always such tasty food, great vibes, and wonderful customer service. I want to acknowledge Miriam and David Santiago for being so wonderful! They went above and beyond for me and my mom. They made sure we had all that we needed. Making our experience even more enjoyable because of the care they give to customers. They definitely deserve to be acknowledged for all their hard work and dedication they provide to customers. Thanks again to Miriam and David for being so amazing! read more

First time here. This is a very nice restaurant so dress accordingly. Dimly lit, dark woods, candle-lit vibes. Staff from host, to bartender to waitress were all helpful and friendly. We were told it's common for tables to get several plates and share. We ended up getting the cheese and pâté to start. Very small portion of the cheese but good nonetheless. We also got the vegan calamari fritti which was also good (but likely because it's hard to make friend food taste bad). I was stunned by how tasteful the corn and barley risotto is. It tasted smooth like butter. Very flavorful and would get again. We also got the spicy rigatoni and lasagna. I think I preferred the rigatoni over the lasagna but if you naturally gravitate toward lasagna (I don't) then you should disregard my opinion and try it. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't my favorite or the night. We also got the brownie sundae for dessert and it was VERY rich! Good but too much for just me in terms of richness. Definitely something worth sharing. Overall, 10/10 experience. Valet $15 and on the side of the buildings entrance. Highly recommend this option as parking was difficult for us otherwise. read more

I'd heard about this spot for years and was excited to finally check it out last night. Overall I really enjoyed my food -- the eggplant short rib was a definite standout that was super unique and flavorful. I also really liked the cauliflower torte and the apple martini. The pasta was tasty, a bit too spicy for both my friend and me. My least favorite part of the meal was the dessert -- we got the chocolate cake, which was sadly a bit on the drier side (though we did appreciate the birthday candles since we were both celebrating our birthdays!). Service was a bit hit or miss. My friend asked for lemon for her water, which was brought promptly. 5 minutes later, the busboy came back to tell us that would be a $2 charge, after it was already in my friend's water glass. I have never heard of a restaurant charging for lemon slices in your water and we were pretty taken aback by that to be honest. The waitress said she'd remove that charge from the bill since we weren't told about it upfront, but really? That shouldn't be a charge at all. Our waitress was very nice, but fairly absent after we received our dishes. She never came to check on us, refill water, see if we needed more drinks, etc. We actually had to flag another waitress down to find ours when it was time for us to get the check (after sitting with cleaned off plates on the table for at least 25 minutes). The space is pretty from what I could tell. We were seated in a side section that the hostess said is usually not open, so it did feel like a bit of an afterthought. But I could tell that the main space is nice. If I could give 2.5 stars, I would -- but that's not an option, so it's a 2 for me. I'm glad I finally came here, but don't think I would need to return. read more

Elevated fine-dining with an all-vegan menu. Great place for a date or special occasion. If you've been to Pura Vita, you can expect a similar experience. CALAMARI FRITTI - As someone who typically enjoys deep-fried, battered food, the fried calamari wasn't very impressive. It was oily and borderline soggy. It wasn't bad by any means, but it just didn't embody the long-standing reputation of quality food that Crossroads has always carried in the LA vegan circle. TRUFFLE MUSHROOM BIANCA - Again, it just didn't have the wow factor. It was decent, but just not great. In summary, fine-dining ambiance and spectacular service accompanied by mediocre food. read more

Came to enjoy a Mother's Day dinner after seeing a show at Pantages. My husband and I were both thrilled with the warm cozy feel of the restaurant. Staff were so friendly and kind. And the food was delicious!! Shared the zucchini blossoms and they were delicious. My husband enjoyed the piccata and we shared the yummy truffle potatoes. I've been wanting to try vegan scallops made with trumpet mushrooms and these did not let me down - the linguine and scallops were amazingly delicious - would definitely have again! The strawberry cheesecake was a great way to finish the meal - banana pudding was ok. Overall, would highly recommend and hope to return for more! read more

Portion sizes are extremely small for the amount their charging! The meals are very expensive. The service not great! They had one tasty thing which was khachapuri but took it off their menu. Save your money go to other vegan restaurants. Not worth your money read more

We lived out of state and wanted to hit some of our fave places while in LA. My sweetie really wanted to go back to Crossroads because he thought it was the best plant based restaurant he's ever been to. I totally agree but it's my jam to eat clean. Even tho we were visiting in Santa Monica we made sure we went to Crossroads and it was great! We started with the whipped feta and fig appetizer. We split the wedge salad, also delish. The eggplant shortrib was mine and sweetie loved the Italian sausage with capellini. Crossroads never disappoints. Highly recommend, service and staff are pros!! read more

Crossroads Kitchen - Chicken Parmesan - Vegan Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is really a top notch vegan spot! They know how to make amazing food, get it out to the customer fast and have great service. The price tag is a bit on the pricey side but feels worth it! The rigatoni was a standout for the evening! It was perfectly seasoned and spicy with the chicken still having that deliciously addictive crunch. The mushroom arancini were also delicious! Our waitress was very nice and brought out everything super fast. The restaurant is really beautiful with a great bar and nice lighting. The tortellini was probable my least favorite of the night as it was a Bit too Al dente and the broth was not very warm. It did come out with some flare as they light the rosemary on fire before pouring the soup over the pasta. The banana pudding was ok, however I think they could spruce up their dessert menu as I don't think I've ever had one that was to die for. read more

Was excited to try the LA location, but service greatly reduced my rating. Food was average, and lacked impressiveness. Celery root tartare semi bland. No apple or dill flavor. Chips were fresh and okay. Calamari was thick cut. Hearty breading. But a great plant based alt to calamari. Do give it a try! Beet salad was my favorite. Very small. No blue cheese appeared in this dish. The golden beets with the sweet pears were yummy. Overall, nice mix of flavors and textures, would have been better with the blue cheese tho. Balsamic pearls are a fun spin. CELERY ROOT & CHESTNUT TORTELLINI has a delectable table-side flamed rosemary in the spout of a kettle before the vegetable broth was poured over the tortellini. Tbh, there was no flavor in the pasta itself. This dish is more like a soup. It's just the flavorless pasta in a small amount of veggie broth. Grilled lions mane steak was a good "heavier" entree. I opted for the sauce on the side and glad I did... was more of a broth style sauce which I would not have liked. The truffle potato has good presentation, but lacked much, if any, truffle flavor. Courses were not timed. Table was loaded with dishes and to make it worse, after dinner, and for a minimum of one hour, none of the dishes were cleared from the table and no server checked in. Inside is elegantly appointed. Noise level is loud. read more

This has been a go-to special occasion for years and it never, ever disappoints! Highlights: Calamari is to die for. Infinitely better than the original. Eggplant short rib has a beautiful 'meaty' texture and hearty flavor that's perfect for a winter menu. Their martinis! Always made perfectly to specifications. Ambience is nice enough that I don't feel out of place being dressy for special occasions, but it's never stuffy. Service is always prompt and friendly. read more

Excellent service and food and ambiance. I'll visit again when I come to Los Angeles.

*** Los Angeles Times 101 Best Restaurants (2024): #98 *** Visited Crossroads Kitchen for the first time on a Friday night around 6:45pm without reservations. Although all the tables were taken, we were able to grab seats at the bar. Service was attentive and friendly. To eat, we ordered the Bolognese ($24) and the Pepperoni Pizza ($22). To drink, a Sierra Nevada Hazy ($7). The food was good, and the ambiance was even better. While I'm not in a rush to come back, we enjoyed our experience here. If you're in the area, I'd say this place is worth checking out. read more

Best vegan brunch I have had thus far. We ordered the chicken and waffles and one of their brunch special, chilaquiles. For a drink we also ordered their green juice. The chicken and waffles was so good. The vegan chicken was crispy and flavorful and with the syrup, it was over the top good. The chilaquiles comes with green sauce and vegan chorizo. It had the right amount of heat, not too spicy. We shared our meal so a little of both dishes was perfect for us. The green juice was refreshing but probably would not order it again since combined with all the food, it made me too full. From the hostess to the server, everyone was very friendly. Pretty spacious inside but they also have outdoor seating. We did make reservations online on our way to the restaurant since we anticipated it being busy on the weekend. Valet parking is available as well as meter street parking. Would definitely go back to try some other dishes, especially their pasta which they are also known for. read more

My family and I have been to Crossroads Kitchen for brunch twice in the past month, and both visits were amazing. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, and service is excellent. We have absolutely loved every dish ordered. The Chilaquiles with chorizo sausage was so delicious, as was the Sicilian Pizza. My daughter had the Breakfast Sandwich which she loved; the croissant was superb. Break the Fast is also a great choice when you're in the mood for breakfast; the Blueberry & Lemon Pancakes or Stuffed French Toast are wonderful when you'd prefer something sweet for brunch. The Chicken & Waffles was also quite tasty. The Moroccan Cigars & Truffle Fries are great starters. If I had to choose a favorite, I'd pick the Chilaquiles - it's listed as one of their specials, but hopefully it becomes a permanent addition to the brunch menu. read more

About as good as it gets for vegan breakfast. We've been to the Crossroads location in Vegas for dinner, and after seeing the breakfast menu we had to stop in. The Good: -Nice ambiance and not terribly crowded on a Sunday morning. -Biscuits & gravy (appetizer) is about the best there is. The Not So Good: -Not a true complaint, but I thought I'd be cute and order something different than what I usually get - stuffed French toast. It was good, but not great. Highly recommended! read more

So happy I finally got to try crossroads brunch!!! 100% plant based brunch in this cute place?! wish there were more locations, especially in my hometown greater Seattle. Was having a difficult time deciding because everything looked so good! So we did the most logical thing and that's to share several dishes. We got the vegan stuffed French toast, croissant breakfast sandwich with sausage and biscuits with mushroom gravy. First, the restaurant is cute. Service is very quick and friendly indoor and outdoor seating we opted for indoor. As for the food, I really loved the breakfast sandwich. The croissant was perfect. The melted cheese on the just egg patty hit the right spot, warm savory & flaky. I think their biscuits with mushroom gravy could very well be the best biscuit and gravy I've ever had. Not just together but individually too! The biscuits were not too dense or hard. They're have a savory buttery rosemary and thyme flavor. The mushroom gravy wasn't too clumpy or runny, it had the perfect balance to compliment the biscuit with noticeable amounts of mushrooms so you felt like you were getting a real meal out of it. Lastly, the stuffed French toast, who doesn't love French toast? It's always a fan favorite in my family. This season, They have persimmons and blueberries on top with the vegan mascarpone. I'd say it's a must try. Highly recommend crossroads for dates or large groups, brunch, lunch or dinner! read more

Lovely ambiance! Warm, dark interior for dinner with soft banquettes. We had the Chick'n Pizza, Tempeh Piccata, and Italian sausage. We were all happy with our choices.

Was skeptical before going... like any other non-vegan person. But damn, everything we ordered was good! The lasagne was pretty much as good as regular ones.

Crossroads is in my constant regular date night rotation despite not being a vegetarian any longer. The menu changes consistently according to seasons and this makes almost every visit feel new. I'm obsessed with their lion's mane steak and will order it almost every time I visit (unless I'm trying one of the new seasonal main courses) - it's surprisingly close to the flavor and texture of actual steak! The calamari is one of my favorites and my very anti-vegan stepkids actually said it's better than real calamari, which is huge. Chef Tal Ronnen is amazing at making a vegan dinner not feel like a vegan dinner, but instead a decadent filling meal that's comparable to any Italian restaurant. One of my other favorite things about Crossroads is how friendly the staff is. The hostess, Miriam, not only remembers my name but she seems to have a warm and familiar rapport with all the guests that come in. My husband and I love to sit at the bar and Matt the bartender is a blast to talk to. He's always recommending the perfect cocktails with our orders and takes the time to talk about bands and concerts with us. I couldn't recommend Crossroads enough! read more

This is way overdue. I've been dining here for years and I'm not vegan but the team at Crossroads literally does WITCHCRAFT bc idk how they're transforming all these vegetables. I've tried plenty of items over the years but the all stars are Impossible cigars, squash blossoms, vodka pasta, mushroom pizza, and lion's mane steak. Last night I tried the mushroom crudo for the first time which was INSANE, also a dirty martini with "bleu cheese" olives, the bleu cheese blew my mind. It's no wonder they've been around for 10+ years and still manage to stay busy! read more

Crossroads Kitchen is a deliciously creative, aesthetically pleasing vegan restaurant that is such a vibe. I have been here a few times, and to the ( no closed) Calabasas location a number of times. The food has always been on point. I remember the first time I put the squash blossom app into my mouth....dear lort that was amazing!! Every item is truly a winner, and the setting is very pretty. The wait staff at this location can sometimes be a bit slow or not on top of things, but the food time to table, presentation, and flavor has always been great. I highly recommend Crossroads Kitchen! read more

If this place ever closes, I will cry. Then I will leave this city because I refuse to dwell in a Los Angeles that doesn't have a Crossroads Kitchen. Is that super dramatic? Maybe. But Crossroads is worth it, and if you don't agree, then, candidly, you're just wrong and have bad taste. Anyways, that's my review. If you're were hoping this review would tell you what to order, I guess the scaloppini parm, the potatoes, the carbonara, and the zucchini blossoms. read more

I had a wonderful experience at Crossroads Kitchen. The standout for me was definitely the Lion's Mane mushroom dish - the texture and flavor were incredible, and I actually preferred it over the eggplant steak. The eggplant was good, but the Lion's Mane had a richer, more satisfying bite. The fries paired perfectly with the Lion's Mane, but I also loved the mashed potatoes - creamy, comforting, and beautifully done. It's rare to find plant-based sides that feel this indulgent without being heavy. The beet salad was vibrant, colorful, and juicy - super fresh and visually stunning. And the mocktail? Absolutely delicious and thoughtfully crafted. It felt elevated, not like an afterthought. Overall, the meal felt creative, balanced, and refined. I'd definitely return, especially for that Lion's Mane dish. Ambiance is totally romantic. Street parking is nearby. read more

This place is fancy and great for dates! I reserved this place a long time ago and went with the boy I like. We definitely liked all the dishes we ordered. Our favorite was the truffle paste, and the least favorite belonged to the calamari. But...I had a great time here! I will come back sometime to try more things. The people here are also quick to respond and nice. Good spot. I truly support more vegan places all around the world. read more
