What People Say

Reviews on TripAdvisor and OpenTable highlight the uplifting vibe, delicious plant-based options, and attentive staff. Many guests rave about the “I Am Whole” macro bowl and the cashew nachos, calling them “crave-worthy” and “perfect for sharing.” The positive affirmations on the menu (each item is named with a feel-good phrase) are a fun and memorable touch.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that parking in the Larchmont area can be a bit tricky, especially on weekends, so plan to arrive a little early. While most people love the healthy menu, those looking for more traditional comfort food might find it a bit too clean-eating focused. And yes, the positivity theme might feel a little “LA” for some—but others find it charming.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a show and want a refreshing, plant-based meal in a calm and upbeat setting, Cafe Gratitude is a solid pre-concert choice in LA.
