Food Scene

One of the top vegan restaurants in the area. I love this place and I'm not vegan. I love the Tikka Mushroom Tacos and the Chilaquiles! There will be a line, but it's worth it.

Delicious tex-mex tacos - my favorites are the brisket and they potato tacos. Definitely worth a visit if you are exploring Figueroa. They have indoor seating and a nice outdoor patio for eating.

It's a cafe and bicycle shop combined into one place. Good coffee with great breakfast and lunch items. It's great for anyone, but people into cycling really love this place.

Great place for bagels! You order from the window and either take it home or eat on the sidewalk. Also good for lunch, but sometimes they don't have much of a bagel selection by lunchtime.

Solid Mexican restaurant that specializes in huaraches - thick oval fried tortillas with toppings. I usually get the burritos, but everything is pretty good.

My favorite donut shop - ever. You can buy their pre-made donuts off the shelf - all are delicious with creative flavors. Or, you can design your own donut - you pick the donut, glaze, toppings, and even filling. Kids and adults love this place. There will definitely be a line, but totally worth it. I went several times before I learned they are vegan donuts - you won't taste a difference!

Healthy acai bowls and smoothies. They close at 6pm, so not good if you get hungry late.

Great sandwiches and I love their fries. I personally like the Jive Turkey sandwich, but everything I've had is good. They have Vegan dishes and breakfast dishes, too (breakfast is served all day).

Yummy Ramen in the 'hood. It's not a huge place, so there might be a bit of a wait for lunch or weekend dinners. Tables are small, so might not be great for large parties.

Drinks & Nightlife

Highland Park Brewery, located in the Hermosillo (a historic building that used to a brothel back in the day). Awesome beer with some great food to go with it. Really popular on the weekends, but definitely worth checking out even if you can't get a table.
