Silverlake Vegan — Restaurant in Los Angeles

This business is not 100% vegan. After questioning the cashier several times about the goat meat and shrimp options available on the menu, she said those options were vegetarian, so I questioned her about the restaurant being advertised as vegan, and trying to assure if the food options were free of cow’s milk, fish all that stuff. She kept saying yes, but something didn’t sit right with me. She said “it was all veggies and menu was vegan” so I continued questioning her about the goat meat options available on the menu which made me feel really bad. I respect this woman making her living and don’t wanna sound inconvenient at all. But they don’t sell what is advertised. Please ask questions and make sure you’re getting an animal cruelty free meal before you order from this business. The whole thing sounded contradictory. So please, be really aware they’re not 100% vegan. They use vegan on their name, to attract more people (I guess) but they’re far from being a vegan business. I hope one day this can change. The food was like 99% rice and 1% veggies (peas, cauliflower and carrots) I don’t recommend this business, unless you’re really hungry and nothing else is...

The Vegetable Zalfrazi and Naan were aight. It made m full, but definitely wouldn't be placed on my list of fav Indian Places.

There wasn't enough base in this dish. I wanted more of the soup like liquid in this dish, but it was plagued with veggies instead. I wanted balance. It was good, but nothing spectacular.

The disappointment came when I tasted the Naan. It tasted like pure flour. Pure enriched, bleached, flour with seeds in it to give it taste. It was basically seasoned flour. It didn't taste like the Naan bread I'm used to, and this new vegan one wasn't it.

Overall, the veggies were good, but besides that, nothing else...

I am just leaving one star because although the food smelled great, this is not actually a vegan restaurant. This is very misleading. I was looking for a dedicated vegan restaurant (no cross contamination) and thankfully before I ate anything, I noticed that it’s being run out of a general meat restaurant and left. To be honest, it felt so disrespectful to advertise a dedicated vegan restaurant and realize it’s mixed with...
