Men & Beasts: The New Vegan Star of L.A.
If you’ve been following along, you already know how much I adore Men & Beasts. And now that they’ve made the leap from vegetarian to fully vegan, I can officially say it: this is easily my favorite new vegan spot in L.A. for 2025.
Why I’m In Love with Men & Beasts
They were always great, but going 100% vegan just elevated them to a whole new level. Here’s what I had during my latest visit and why each dish absolutely stole my heart:
1. The Beancurd Enchiladas
Gluten-free and full of flavor, these were the perfect intro. They’re the kind of enchiladas that make you say, “Wait, these are vegan?” Yeah, they’re that good.
2. Prosperity Dumplings
Crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and that ginger tamari sauce? Absolute perfection.
3. Monkey Paws
Sweet, savory, sticky, and a total surprise. This was one of those “okay, I’m coming back for this” moments.
4. The Stir Fry
Fresh, vibrant, and the perfect palate cleanser. It’s a reminder that simple veggies can be a showstopper.
5. The Soufflé Pancakes
We ended on a high note, literally… These fluffy, dreamy pancakes in slow motion were everything. They’re the kind of dish that deserves its own applause.
Why This Place Has My Heart
Men & Beasts didn’t just become my favorite vegan spot overnight; they earned it with every bite. It’s places like this that make me excited to share how incredible vegan dining can be.
