Beautiful Restaurant, Lovely Customer Service & The flowers in the back smell so good. The Brussel Sprouts were the most seasoned Brussel Sprouts, that I have ever had in my life. My favorite was the tacos, they will bring me back. They just tasted so fresh, delicious and full of flavor. The cashew cheese was also very good and the potatoes where cool too

Small portions with huge flavors! Everything we had was so tasty. By far, my favorite potato dish ever! The crisp outside and the flavorful sauce surrounding the potatoes just took the dish to another level. The pancakes were also delicious. They were sweet and had light crisp. The servers were nice. It just took a bit to be acknowledged at the door for assistance. It's a small diner style restaurant that delivers big flavors.

Gluten free vegan chicken sando amazing deliciousMany gluten free and all vegan
My favorite vegan cafe in all of Los Angeles.Come here to work on your computer, catch up with friends, or for a date … it’s the perfect mix of casual setting but decadent food and creative cocktails plus gorgeous wine selections.My go to is the carrot lox toast with tofu scramble and I’m never disappointedThey have some of the Best Matcha in town for a fair price, it’s worth it to stop in just to get your caffeine fixAnd I can’t forget to mention the service is impeccable, everyone is so kind, I always feel welcome walking through their doorLove this spot sm ?
I can't believe this place doesn't get more traffic. Their matcha is top tier. All the food I've tried has been delicious-- salmon lox toast, jewel box, burrata, and tahini chocolate chip cookie. Service is always lovely and the patio is spacious and shaded.

Jewel is SO good. It's a great spot for brunch, lunch or dinner. The food is really delicious and I love sitting on their patio. A few of my favorites: the Jewel Box (healthy grain bowl that is delicious and nourishing), gochujang brussels sprouts, smashed potatoes, jackfruit dumplings, gnocchi (dinner menu), buffalo "chicken" sandwich, coconut calamari tacos, and mushroom "chicken" and waffles. Jewel is really a great.Dietary restrictions: Great vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options!
I was greeted with "how can I help you?" when I walked in, which felt weird. Why else would I be there if not to eat? It took some time to get a menu, but the wait staff were friendly. I ordered the overnight oats and the service was very slow. There's a 3% kitchen service charge "to ensure a more equitable workplace" that wasn't mentioned on the menu, only on the check. They should've been up front about it, and it should've been listed on their menu.

Smash burger was a little dry and not something I'd order again.Tipping options on their digital pad start at 20%, which means if you want to pay the standard 15% you have to mentally calculate it on the spot while the waiter holds the tablet. It's awkward and manipulative.
