Best Vegan Restaurants in Playa del Rey

Inventive food, wonderful flavors and a menu few retardants can match in its breakfast to dinner offerings - always a pleasure coming here.

Élephante is a staple in Santa Monica! They are consistently good, always delivering delicious food, good drinks and a good vibe.

The service was great my friend and I grabbed a few drinks and an appetizer, and then we left to a place with meat because the name of this place had us presume there was steak on the menu LOL otherwise it was good

We had an incredible dining experience at Planta Cocina. It checked off all the boxes: a stunningly beautiful restaurant in the new and easily accessible area of MDR. You felt like you were walking into an art museum, warmly greeted and ready to sample some creative and delicious dishes ~ one would forget that this was a Vegan restaurant. Ciara was our delightful and knowledgable server. Excellent craft cocktails and nice wine selection. We tried: Spicy ahi watermelon on crispy rice. Nice flavor and thicker crispy rice. Tempura broccoli stuffed dragon roll very good Croquettes used mushroom “bacon” and our favorite. Crab cake and corn cavatelli nicely prepared. We couldn’t pass on the Pumpkin cheesecake which was perfect ~ light, flavorful with a nice crispy crust. Planta had seasonal specials and weekly specials. We cannot wait to return to work our way thru the tasty and creative menu.

Having grown up in the restaurant biz and after running one of the most successful joints in town, I must say, THIS might be one of the most quintessential places in all of Southern CA. Makai (sp?)greeted us like we were family. Can’t wait to come back.
