🌱🍝🍄 Italian Vegetarian Food Near UCLA You’ve Got to Try!

【Green Eats Diary】 After my astigmatism check-up at UCLA Stein Eye Center this afternoon, my vision was all blurry 😵💫… I just wanted a quick bite, but my taste buds led me straight to this spot—and wow, did I discover some amazing vegetarian dishes! 😌 🍄 Mushroom Arancini – Truffle Mushroom Risotto Balls Made with Arborio rice, crispy on the outside, and filled with a rich mushroom filling and a hint of truffle. So comforting~ The layers of rice, earthy mushrooms, and creamy cheese are pure joy for vegetarians 💕 It’d be perfect with a touch less oil, but the flavor is absolutely incredible! 🍝 Rigatoni Diavola – Spicy Vodka Sauce Pasta (No Shrimp Version) A little kick of spice that wakes up your taste buds 🌶️ The creamy tomato sauce is super rich and satisfying in every bite, with Parmesan sprinkled just right for that salty cheesy touch 🧀 Perfect for someone like me who doesn’t eat meat but still wants a flavor adventure~ The rigatoni has that perfect al dente chew—so comforting and yummy 😋 🪑 Vibe Notes: • Moody dark tones + soft lighting—feels like a cozy European bistro • Great for solo reading or daydreaming, and also for catching up with friends over drinks • The staff are good-looking, super kind, and explained everything patiently ✨ Grateful for these little moments of joy that food brings 🥰 Sometimes when you can’t see clearly, you stumble upon the most wonderful surprises. 📍 Wolfsglen (Westwood Village) 1071 Glendon Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90024 Have you tried any great vegetarian spots around UCLA?
