Best Organic Food Restaurants in East Los Angeles

Splendid experience all around! Our server, Alex, was lovely. Our food was presented so beautifully. My friend and I had a lovely time dining & catching up before we went to see a show across the street. It was just such a divine experience that I am planning to take others back to San Laurel.  The only problem was that my mocktail was made with alcohol. I don’t drink because I’m sober so it was very concerning that such an error occurred. That’s never happened in all my years of ordering mocktails at other fine establishments. After two sips and having my friend try it, I was convinced that there was indeed tequila added to my lime-based drink so I asked the waiter about it and he quickly whisked it away and brought me a true mocktail that tasted of citrus and definitely had no alcohol in it. That was a weird experience. The evening ended on a great note with a surprise complementary flan dessert for my friend’s birthday that included a candle and song-a very nice touch. Of special note is that the chef is actually accommodating to guests’ dietary sensitivities such as the need for gluten and dairy free ingredients. Such a breath of fresh air since other fine dining spots don’t usually like to make such modifications to their menu items. It was very much appreciated by this diner. Thank you San Laurel!

Hade an amazing dinner. Perfect atmosphere and the food was impeccable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet brasserie in DTLA serving authentic and well made French staples. Will be back soon!

I have wanted to eat at Poppy & Rose for years! Many times when I pass by on the weekends it's packed so I keep moving. I decided to make it a date and go try the food that I've heard so much about. I have also seen the Chef Michael on some of the food competitions, that I am obsessed with! To my delight, I did not order what I expected to, the waffles & fried chicken. Instead I ordered a la carte chicken sausage patty, half of an avocado, and the joyful surprise.. the biscuit! Listen, I am a biscuit Aficionado and I tell you a biscuit is good it is good. But this biscuit was better than good, it was heavenly. It was an orb of a whisper tender homemade angel biscuit with crispy, flaky, delicious layers that were so good I had to take almost an hour to enjoy every morsel. And the homemade Berry Jam was no joke either... incredibly delicious. Believe me when I tell you that if it had not cost me $30 for a half dozen biscuits I would have taken a half dozen home. My body thanks me for not doing so but boy I have been thinking about those biscuits ever since. I have had many biscuits around the city and in markets but I promise you Poppy's is the very best I have had . I promise you it is only with great restraint that I don't go over there right now and order at least three to bring home for breakfast tomorrow. Oh, and by the way, my lunch partner said his smoked beef sandwich was divine. I will definitely be back.

Had a great time with my friends. We enjoyed the food and wine. Great customer service. Can’t wait to go back.

I love the quiet atmosphere and lovely patio, when warm. The service is always good and relaxing tea time. I love to bring friends as it a fun and lovely afternoon of feeling special.
