native foods

the best part about native foods is that it's in the heart of westwood.  not only does it have awesome food, but since it's in a bustling college town full of coffee shops and movie theaters, your non-vegan friends won't even bat an eye when you suggest it for dinner.  my favorite things on the menu are the bowls (try the gandhi bowl or the greek gyro bowl), but there are plenty of "comfort food" classics on the menu, as well, like nachos, a fried chicken burger, and chili cheese fries.  we got the sweet potato fries and they were amazing.

everything at native foods is homemade each day using organic ingredients: the tempeh, the cashew cheese, even the tofu! the portions aren't huge, but that just means you always have room for dessert!  i recommend the good luck cupcakes (made using fair trade cocoa) or the cheesecake with granola crust.  oh, and one thing i forgot to mention -they have a kids menu!  definitely not your typical vegan restaurant.
