Best Vegetarian / Vegan Restaurants in South Pasadena

Impeccable. Always a wonderful dining experience. Highly recommend the Tradizionake unleavened bread and green handkerchief pasta dishes. You will not be disappointed. Top it off with the berry sorbet…heaven!

Great food, location, ambiance, and experience. This time we needed to stay on the quieter side and the team promptly fulfilled our request. Great experience!

Momed is one of the great gems in LA. From the moment you walk through the entry with the Mediterranean kitchen on full display, to the open seating area warm and inviting. You instantly fall in love with Momed. The bar is the setting where you want to camp out and try any of the hand-crafted cocktails with the sumac chicken wings and grab an order of the cauliflower, too; the rice flour-based tempura is mind-blowing. Dinner at Momed is exceptional, too- starting with the Muhammara, the fermented pepper paste with the house-made sourdough pita is life-changing. You can't go wrong with anything on the small bites list; the smoked labni in the roasted beets is mouth-watering. For your main course, try everything, but the short rib with the zhoug is a go-to every time for me, and the striped bass is also fantastic. Momed will become your favorite spot as it has mine.

A medium sized airy space, featuring a large rectangular bar in the middle. A fairly small vegetarian menu - 5 starters, 6 "Veggies and Leaves", 6 Entrees, 5 Pizzas, and 3 Desserts. Everything ordered was excellent, service was relaxed and friendly. They were also very helpful about slightly modifying a dish to accommodate a food allergy. Although each of us in our party ordered separately we noticed many tables were ordering for the table and sharing. Friday nights there is live music The night we were there it was a female duo playing guitar and violin and singing fabulous harmonies on 20s and 30s standards. A real treat. As to parking, their is a small public metered lot right next to the restaurant.

Very tasty surprise in East LA. Home made and delicious pastas.
