Studio city hidden gem! Food is delicious and always fresh and fast. The burritos are super filling and I lot their chick'n salad pita.

Service was great. 2 stars strictly just for the food. I ordered the Mike and the Wendy special Quesadilla. The Mike tortilla was crispy and overcooked. The Wendy which was also supposed to be a quesadilla literally took crowns of steamed broccoli and stuffed them in a tortilla. It was basically a broccoli taco.

Super delicious!! Friendly service!! Reasonable prices and cozy, trendy atmosphere. Definitely a new favorite comfort food spot ?Great spot for a get together with friends, family, or even a date!We had the Roti & Curry starter and Pineapple Fried Rice. The curry dip was hearty and creamy and paired perfectly with the crunchy roti. The fried rice was the perfect balance of fresh produce and indulgent fried goodness. It's the kind of amazing dish that leaves you feeling satiated but not bloated! All of my compliments to the chef.Vegetarian options: Everything was VeganDietary restrictions: Gluten free options, dishes containing nuts clearly labeled

Put simply, my favorite restaurant of all time is Leonore's. I love it, and I can't say enough good things about this place. My favorite meal there is their soy chicken enchilada dinner, and I add a beet salad and a flaxseed tea. And their waitress Amy is terrific.

Excellent vegan Mexican food! So happy to have stumbled upon this place. Quiet little corner space, classic Mexican style seating. The service was decent. The cooks were super sweet! Will for sure be back

What happened to the older version of the chicken chicken pita sandwich chicken? They changed the chicken and it is definitely not the same. Too bad. This is one of my favorite places. To eat of all time now not so much. I still love the saucy little gal at the register though she's adorable.

Slowest order execution I have ever met in my life.I work in delivery, and when I arrived I have been waiting for the order for 20 minutes, which is simply unacceptable, not only it influences my job, but also the waiting time of the person who ordered the food.There are 2 possible problems, it is either the owner simply doesn't want to get more employees, or he has absolutely 0 idea about volumes at his own restaurant.It is not employees fault who work there, but arrogant behavior of the owner making this place inappropriate for online orders.Whoever you are do your research please.

I love this place!! My wife and I come here for breakfast morning dates and it's perfect. She is vegan and I eat mostly vegetarian (I occasionally eat meat when I eat out) There are tons of options for her and I love just about everything on the menu AND I don't miss the meat! Coffee is awesome here It's always nice and quiet and we can chill outside. (Like I can actually think and have a conversation with my wife and not be blasted by noisy streets or 50 TVs on the wall haha ) The servers are always so nice and attentive! The price is also Very affordable and I always leave this place stuffed!!!

18$ for a burrito with extra cheese?? No cheese?? the girl was on her phone scrolling, didn't bother to give me change back or respond to me asking for cheese. Next! don't need the attitude

Leonors has been around for a longtime. I have liked their salads and beet juice. But the best ever was sighting Lily Tomlin (about a decade + ago) in the booth nearby. At the time, I had not become a huge fan, but my friend was and she could almost not contain herself. I became a huge fan after Frankie & Gracie -- what does this have to do with vegetarian -- LOL!! absolutely nothing. It's ok, but Veganism has raised the bar on Vegetarian food as well, and I think Leonors is stuck in the old school. It's good for a salad and a quick stop for lunch if you're in the area.
I got takeout here one night and the food was really good and wholesome-feeling. The food tasted homemade and the staff was really friendly, especially the guy who took my phone order. I got the Chicken Enchiladas plate, which came with rice and beans. My partner got the Chicken Tostada. We got the Bolivian sauce on the side and Chicken Salad. They were all filing, but I would recommend smothering a hot sauce over anything, which they provide on their tables. Remember to ask for vegan cheese if you're vegan. The place was cute and quaint, tucked away in the corner of the parking lot. I hope this place stays in business because it's an OG! A bit pricey...but everything is with inflation these days

If I were on death row, this place would be my last meal. Been eating here for 20 years. It's amazing.

LOVE this place! They have a great selection of foods and you have different options when ordering. They also make tamales and those are hard to find! My favorite is the Chik'n salad sandwich on pita bread! So delicious, clean and nice service !!! They have 2 locations last time I checked, one in Studio City and one in North Hollywood, both are great! They have one bathroom at Studio City location but it's clean. I love supporting this mom and pop business and I think you will too!

OMG seriously it's one of the most delicious vegetarian/vegan restaurants around. I do love meat but this restaurant makes me want to go back to the vegan world lol. The service is excellent Wendy and Jesus are super friendly and accommodating. The place is tiny and after this review it's going to get crowded so order to go or arrive and wait for a table they only have a few. I highly recommend the Studio City location. There's no alcohol the only downside but there's a bar across the street!

Saw the mixed reviews on this place and decided to ignore some of the negative comments and give it a try. Ordered chips and salsa, two vegan asada tacos and the chicken enchilada dinner plate. Got a large horchata to drink. Was totaled up to almost $40. First yikes Second yikes, the salsas sucked. They were really runny and great for like tacos/burritos but they didn't really have any good salsa for chips. Asked if they had a different one that wasn't watery and they said no. This was the most lackluster vegan Mexican food I have ever had. There's always haters for everything these days so I was hoping these sorts of reviews weren't true. Tacos were just okay and same with the enchilada plate. Also gave me terrible heartburn after Won't be coming back here - Doomies NextMex, Gracias Madre, Tu Madre or Cena Vegan are all WAY better choices - and you get more quality and quantity with your buck. Really disappointed. I also want to be transparent in the fact that I did eat all the food, I was starving. But it was just overall disappointing and was hoping for more. Won't be back.
