One thing that is consistent is the portion size! Check out these Asada Fries: https://yelp.to/QwFTIFddpU Loaded with beans, plant-based Carne Asada, pico de gallo, guacamole, chipotle cashew crema, and salsa. Eating this was like reuniting with a good friend I haven't seen in a while. So yummy! I also really dig this food hall location! Easy parking, lots of places to sit (indoor or outdoor). The convenience alone may increase interactions with Cena Vegan more frequently.

We also ordered pozole, asada fries and their incredible horchata to tame the spice. Their pozole was sooooo good! The broth was rich, flavorful and I fully enjoyed every single bite. This was easily one of the best, if not THE BEST pozole I've ever had. The tamale had excellent flavor as well and the masa was the perfect texture. Their asada fries were awesome as always and we had to get a couple of horchatas which has a perfect and deep cinnamon flavor. The service was awesome as always and so was the food. We will definitely be back soon!

The sourdough bread they bring to the table was soft and really delicious. I had the Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo, which was very good. My friends shared the Short Rib Pappardelle, which was a generous portion for two people. We didn't realize it was prepared right in front of you, so getting to watch it being made was such a special treat! The only small downside was that my friends felt the Short Rib Pappardelle needed a little more flavor. They ended up adding some salt to bring out the taste. I have to give a huge shoutout to our waiter! He overheard us saying happy birthday to our friend, and without us even asking, he brought her a complimentary dessert. Such a thoughtful gesture and definitely made the night extra special. Overall, we had a great time and really appreciated the attentive service and little touches that made our dinner memorable!

He said it was hard to get good vegan options in the area. I'm not vegan, so I ordered the chow mein, orange chicken, and cha siu, and I was very pleased with my food. The portions are very generous. The price is very reasonable for the economy and also for a small business. Meat was a little crispy and perfectly tender. I enjoyed it so much that I went back the following day. Good food, good service, my new go-to for fast casual Chinese food.

The rice and chow mein are already vegan The chow mein was good but the rice was a little bland. Which is ok because everything else was so flavorful The vegan orange chicken had a good flavor but there was an acrid bitter background taste - maybe the oil needs to be changed? The vegan bbq pork was really flavorful too But the standout dish that I really really loved was the vegan Mongolian beef. It was really spicy and so flavorful If I ever make it back I'm probably gonna just order that with chow mein

I just wish they had more T-shirt options because their sandwiches are so freaking good I'd wear their t-shirt' Hey. Guess what. They have more t shirt options now that are bad-ass. Can I say bad-ass? I just realized my entire review is about their merch...This time I got the curry chicken sandwich. I initially got it because curry chicken sandwiches always have a sweet element and most places do raisins or apples. Here, they did peach, and I was like, 'damn. I want to try this.' But when I bit into it, the star of the freaking show was the peppercini!! What!??! That vinegary balance with a tiny kick. Mmmm, yeah. Super good that I ate way too much in one sitting.

Cream cheese and potato chips? Somehow it all worked. Sad it is gone. My coworkers love the Prime Rib and BBQ Brisket. I don't recommend the Tuna Salad Sandwich or the Italian. Tuna was dry and the Italian had heavy amounts of olives. We order delivery at 11:AM and don't normally get our sandwiches until 1:30PM. Wait is probably even longer if you are there in person.

You can tell she puts a lot of love and passion in every section of her business. Down to music selection (they play some classics)! The servers, Perla and Jocelyn are a couple of sweethearts! Jocelyn knows the menu like the back of her hand and always with a smile on her face! Their chili is housemade, the drinks/agua frescas are housemade, the sauces/salsa are housemade. They recently remodeled; it's quite a cozy area. But one can still show up with their loved ones. As of now (while I am writing this), I have tried about half the menu. When I come here, I usually want their Mexican variety. However, their American selections are nothing to sleep on! Their melts are truly one of a kind! [AND there aren't that many establishments that prepare vegan melts that I've come across.] My absolute favorites are the Mexigogi burrito, the Cali-Bae burrito with asada, and as for Brunch: the Chik'n & French Toast. Their horchata is one of the best I've had! As for their coffee; the banana option is insane! Real banana puree! With a sweet tooth like mine, you cannot go wrong with any dessert; it's just that the strawberry crunch cake & the chocolate tres leches are delicioso! My favorite salsas are chile de arbol and roasted chipotle. Tips: Brunch is served on Thursdays-Sundays from 8AM-11:45AM. Patio seating is right outside, just go around.

One girl here was awesome- so nice and sweet and worked hard to keep the restaurant clean. And was sooo attentive when we had questions or needed anything. The girl taking our order was okay..not helpful as it was our first time here. I got the mexgogi burrito. I Was really excited to try a vegan Korean fusion burrito....buuuut... Was really disappointed...lacked flavor. I didn't even taste a lot of the ingredients and it was a tad dry. The green salsa they serve on the side helped give it some flavor. The bulgogi was tasty but since the pieces were so small, the bland rice and beans took over. Total bummer. I did taste the jalapeño but not a ton of siracha eel sauce or cucumbers. (I forgot cucumbers were even in it...) Seats aren't all that comfy...soo prolly best to get it to go. If give it another shot...just order something else.

Props to Mazera for that Do note - Parking can be a PITA, you can street park if the lot is full. I ordered the #2 - chashu mazemen--wow incredible bowl of noodles, sauce was savory with a hint of spice, chashu was tender, egg was perfection, and noodles were "al dente" just like the way I like them. Also ordered the fried oysters- I'm a little biased here because I prefer them raw so they weren't bad but I can do without fried or baked style oysters, just not how I roll!

They do give rice at the end to help you soak up all the leftover flavors. I got the tofu veg mazeman and was incredibly surprised with how flavorful it was. It was so delicious. I did take the kale out of it because it seemed like it wouldn't fit the flavor profile and I think it was a good call. No additional sauces or additions are needed. Highly recommend stopping by the next time you're in the area.

I'm not a fan of pork, so I love that they have beef options for things such as bacon. This is probably the most authentic deep dish pizza that you're gonna find in Los Angeles. They have so many crazy flavors like Carne Asada and Mediterranean and all of them are amazing. However, my favorite is the supreme, which is packed with loads of cheese, sauce, and plenty of meat. It's about $25 for a small pizza with four slices however it is extremely filling. I was initially unsure about the prices, but once I tried the pizza I was convinced that it was worth it. The downside is that this place shares a small lot with 2 other businesses. If you're planning on coming, make sure to account for time to find parking. Also, it takes time to make a deep dish pizza so order at least 25 minutes in advance.

It arrived nice and warm in good protective box. Delivery service was not bad. It was here just in time. The ricotta dollops are a good treat. Plenty of thick sauce. Love the crust that forms. Definitely needed crushed peppers. Maybe my palette is wanting a bit more kick from garlic or peppers. Good just not a 5 for me and wifey. Definitely we will try again. Maybe next time we will try dinning in so we get the meal pipping hot.

The inside is small with about handful of tables and "earthy " decor including a wooden trunk!! The Loco Moco was definitely a standout. The flavors, textures, and presentation were all on point. The only recommitted loco moco is ask the gravy on the side meal was overtly drench with the sauce. We also tried the "fish tacos" (vegan version, of course) and were really impressed and taco was crunchy, but my only complaint is it was messy eating after the 2nd bite -- the fillings seemed to be falling apart and out of the taco shell. The food is flavorful and honestly makes you forget you're eating vegan. The service was great---friendly staff and fast service. Whether you're vegan or just curious about trying plant-based comfort food, I will come back to Mustard Seed a try the burritos next time.

The waitress was very kind, explained what they were out of that evening and was very attentive. Our food came out piece meal , but everything was a great temperature and quick to table. We tried the chips and guacamole. I really enjoyed the chips . I don't know if they are house made, but they had a great flavor. The guacamole was ok not the best but certainly not the worst. I had the tater tots as a side, and you get a lot! They were crunchy and perfect with lots to share and take home,l. My husband ordered a steak burrito I believe which he very much enjoyed . I had the crispy chicken wrap which I have to say I was not a fan of. The homemade vegan ranch tasted a little off to me and had a weird texture . The atmosphere was very nice and relaxing although I was not a fan of the "elevator and holding music " that was playing in the background. . Parking was a bit of a hassle because there are a lot of restaurants in the area , but it wasn't too bad . All in all I am not sure we would be back for the food, but the customer service was excellent.
