There’s something special about finally stepping into a place you've only known from a distance—the energy, the aroma, the anticipation of a meal that’s about to nourish, not just satisfy. Wild Living Foods has been on my radar for some time, having indulged in their catered creations before. But this time, I had the chance to experience it in full—sitting inside their physical location in downtown LA, ready to dive into something delicious with a family member. We opted for the Breakfast Burrito and Jalapeño Burger, paired with vibrant juices to round out the experience. From the moment our food arrived—within 15 minutes, if not sooner—it was clear that every dish was crafted with intention. The burrito was a perfect harmony of flavors, wrapped in something that didn’t just mimic, but redefined what a satisfying breakfast could be. The burger? A delicious-bold, smoky, with just the right amount of spice—this wasn’t a "substitute" for anything. It was a meal in its own right, unapologetically delicious and deeply nourishing. You will not find anything processed here unless they created it themselves in-house! And let’s talk about fullness—the kind that energizes instead of weighs you down. There’s a misconception that eating clean means sacrificing satisfaction, but Wild Living Foods effortlessly proves otherwise. Every bite was fulfilling in a way that didn’t leave me sluggish but instead left me feeling alive. I’m not here to slap a label on this place and file it under “raw vegan” or any other category that limits its brilliance. This is real food. Thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and genuinely crafted for well-being. If you’re in the area and craving something that hits the spot without the post-meal regret, trust me—just come here.

For one, this is most definitely the healthiest place to eat in LA. The food was delicious and very creative with ample selections and desserts are to die for! I also loved the fact that you can build your own salad, and they have a great system for it. The place is wide and have a lot of room to move around, which is quite calming. But the most noticeable thing was Nicole, she was the kindest one could ever ask for. So I hope you get to run into her when you go there. Thank you Nicole!

I had the pleasure of having the breakfast burrito here and it was otherworldly. I’ve had good burritos in my day, but I could not wrap my head around how good this burrito was. Not just good but how satisfying it was. It was made with love and care and it made me feel really good to be eating it. It was the most delicious burrito I’ve ever had in my life and I’ve had a lot of burritos. I immediately thought about my next one and if I were gonna come back the same day and eat another one. If you’re thinking about what to order here highly considered this breakfast burrito as it was outstanding.

Hands down the best organic plant based vegan food in LA and you will be shocked when you taste how good it is because it is all raw! Everything is made in house! The ambiance is super chill and has plenty of seating with a really cool smoothie and juice bar. They have a large menu so everyone in your party should be able to find something, it ranges from burgers to salads to Mexican dishes and the best vegan ice cream and raw desserts. We stared out with the vegan sushi rolls. These are hands down the best rolls I have ever had. We started with the mango roll with cream cheese, then an egg roll, Royal with cheeseburger, then we finished with chocolate and strawberry ice cream scoops and a piece of strawberry cheesecake and a cinnamon roll to go. This place is some of the best food I have ever eaten and I felt really good after because of all the nutrient dense food. Will definitely go back!

Blown away by the food here. Tried 3 quite different entries & they were each unique, expertly, & deliciously prepared. The flavors and freshness of everything took us to cloud 9. I cannot say enough about how delicious they each were. 10/10 would recommend. I wish there was one of these close to me, but we'll worth the 2hr drive. Something for anyone and everyone. Yes, even your crazy carnivore friends will find something delicious (ALL plant based). Come hungry leave satiated beyond your wildest dreams! ✌️💚😋

A really cool vegan and gluten free restaurant. The Ramen bowl was big enough to share amongst the kids. I had the Amaru stew which is equally large. The hot chocolate and Golden milk comes in an oversized mug. The dessert case looks amazing and tastes just as good. We had a cinnamon roll and the Almond pie. Everything was delicious. The store is vibrant, welcoming and clean. Definitely glad I checked this place out.

One of my all time favorite restaurants, and one of my all time favorite Italian places in Los Angeles- everything is divine. Especially the spicy peppers!! Brunch is absolute perfection.

Terroni is an amazing Italian restaurant. If I could give 10 stars I would!! We are from Toronto and dine at the Terroni there often. We are here on vacation and had dinner at their Beverly location last night. The ingredients are so fresh and delicious. Had their stuffed zucchini flowers. Out of this world. The grilled calamari was excellent. We all had their pastas. Delicious! Our server Michael was excellent. Service was quick and he was very friendly. Loved the decor. If you want authentic Italian food, go to Terroni!! You will love it!

Great food, lovely ambient, and excellent service. We were a large group, and the food came quickly, and everything was warm and tasty. I love the fried zucchini, and the pasta with black truffle was yummy. Good coffee and desserts. Overall, it was a great dinner.

This is some of the best gnocchi I've ever had. So good. They were able to seat a party of 8 quickly. The desserts were amazing. Everything I ate here was a delight. 100% recommend.

Amazing italian food! We had a great experience here, it is very good value. We had a mix of vegetarian and non vegetarian options and everything was delicious. We had the Zucchini Flowers for the first time ever - very nice and light vegetable dish. The prosciutto appetizer comes with shaved truffles, which was something special - it tastes amazing, highly recommend! Tonnarelli alla Norcina also comes with shaved truffles and tastes really good! The italian spicy sausage also adds a nice kick to it. Overall we had a great experience and don’t forget to ask for their dessert menu!

Lovely place with delicious food. We ordered pasta with seafood and pizza and 2 desserts as well. Food is delicious, cooked fast. My only complaint is that it was too loud inside so that we had to went away right after we finished with our dishes

Heather Davis

Great experience! Sat at the bar and felt like a part of the neighborhood. Bartenders were so nice and there were so many regulars at the bar. We ordered the margarita pizza, involtini di melanzane, clam pasta and chocolate cake. Everything was fantastic!

The ultimate 7PM dinner reservation hack is booking a wine maker dinner. Terroni has a beautiful private dining room tucked away behind the restaurant haunted by some of the best wines opened in the city. This is where the wine dinners are hosted, and a great place to host a large party.

There’s a reason Terroni’s is always busy… the food is delicious. I come here often and I’m never disappointed. It’s a cute lively place with friendly staff. They serve authentic Italian and do not accept substitution requests of their entrées. Come for lunch, dinner or just hangout at the lovely bar and enjoy a glass of wine. They have an amazing Italian wine selection. This time I came for brunch and my favorite dish from the menu was the Polenta ai Funghi, loved it!

Ira Brian Miller

Wow. So good. Nice decor. Ample parking. Great service. Sommelier suggested some very nice wines. Good bathroom situation. Outdoor seating. Place was packed. Ordered: - Calamari - Prosciutto Pizza - Spaghetti al Limone - Some truffle pasta which was awesome Highly recommended. Get all of the pasta. All of the carbs. One thing to note though -- they don't cut their pizza. They hand you a knife to cut a full pizza pie. You know how difficult that is with a KNIFE?! Bummed me out a little at first, but it was pretty delicious so I let it slide. IG: @losangelesfoodscene

Decent healthy vegan options. Items with honey are clearly marked with a bee. Solid breakfast if you're in the downtown LA area.

I've been eating here for years. The food quality is still amazing and the taste is still really good. The staff isn't that friendly and the place is deserted during lunch. I don't think you can get healthier food but I could have done with less salt on the jalapeno burger though it was delicious. The pizza is tiny so he prepared for it but man it packs a good taste punch.

This is a homey destination for us for great pizza & pasta. Terrific bar! My Penecillin was perfect. There's an atmosphere conducive to an intimate evening out or a table filled with 3 generations. A new one for us is the car emptying 6 teen girls for a nite in their own! Cute! Mom was free for day drinking!

Third or fourth visit in four years. Tonight was mediocre. The calamari was bland and unappealing white. We found the green salad lacked salt, but maybe they think the olives were to provide it. The spaghetti and sauce was good. The cace di Pepe (I don’t know how to spell it) was peppery and just fine. My meal… well, it was just last night and I can’t remember! Oh! I had a pizza with their housemade italian sausage. It was good, actually.

Great little restaurant. My favorites here is the Santo Stefano pizza. Great pizza dough made with quality flour and tangy pizza sauce with prosciutto, arugula and mozzarella. I ordered lamb ragu with pasta. $25. Small portion and no sides. Pretty expensive. I also had Nutella filled fritters with hazelnut gelato. It costed over $10. Expensive or not the food was great! Service is great and very friendly but has been off and unpredictable at times. They have outdoor seating in front of the restaurant. Great people watching. Meter parking or parking in the surrounding neighborhood.

Overall, I did enjoy my anniversary dinner here. There were some issues I had, however, which I will share below. I wish I could give 3.5 stars, but I'll be generous and stick to 4 for this review. First off, getting seated was easy and our server was very friendly. The service itself, while friendly, was a little bit slow and inattentive, however. It took a while to get our cocktails/wine, and to find the server for ordering more drinks or other food items/dessert. One more thing I'll add about the service, and I don't want to sound nit-picky, but I added a note to our reservation that we were celebrating our anniversary. We got nada. Now, I never EXPECT to receive any free drink or dessert, but I always appreciate at least a friendly "Happy Anniversary!" or just anything at all to recognize it! But alas, NADA from the hostess or servers. Now, as for the food itself, it was all absolutely wonderful! The pastas (especially the Cacio E Pepe!) were flavorful, creamy, and delicious. The pizza had a perfectly cooked thin crust and I loved the cheesiness and fresh toppings on it. I will say, however, that the Calamari (which they make a point of saying on the menu ONLY comes with lemon and NO sauce) was quite expensive for its meager size or (lack of) accompaniments. That brings me on to another point. The menu is too pricey for what this restaurant is!! I loved the atmosphere and more casual vibes of the restaurant! The more stuffy, fine-dining Italian restaurants aren't particularly my favorite, so enjoyed the open, airy, casual feel of Terroni! What I didn't enjoy were the prices that are basically fine-dining restaurant prices. Especially the appetizers! I personally felt the Calamari was WAY TOO expensive for what you get. Nevertheless, the pasta and pizza at this restaurant were both excellent. If you can stomach the slow-ish service and the slightly overpriced menu, I would still recommend trying it out! ...Perhaps just not for an anniversary or other special occasion.

Delicious food and good service. I have been a few times for my friends birthday. I like the food and enjoy the service. This isn’t necessarily the best italian and also isn’t awful. It’s a great meal regardless.

The food is not what you think it will be! It’s leaving more into the raw, super healthy vegan food so the “jalapeño popper” was more like a granola bar and the “meatball sub” was on two crackers with more arugula than anything else. Now the flavor of the food was pretty good and we would definitely get the bagel and lox again!

I absolutely love the food here and I would say it's the best food in la. It is of course the better healthier option for you. Wow! The food is great. The prices are a little high. And the service not so great since it is a small owned business there is some wait time. I would definitely recommend this place for food. As far as location goes it's La.

Food was nice overall. Above average Italian. Nothing to write home about. Main issue is service. They refuse any and all modifications or requests. Period. You want a condiment? Forget it. It’s really really weird. “It’s how they do it in southern Italy” ummm wrong. Give the customers what they want.

Came in today around 3:30, sat at the bar with the intention of having food and drinks. The vibes were so off from the guy behind the bar that we got the check right after our first round of drinks and ate up the street. Seemed to be in the middle of a shift change but there was zero hospitality from the bartender and my husband and I felt unwelcome. 3 stars because we have been to this place a few times prior and didn’t have this type of experience. Also, the martini he made was good.

Daniel John

Squid ink pasta was missing ANY seasoning. For the first time ever we had to request some salt. It wasn’t under seasoned, we are convinced the kitchen missed putting any seasoning/ salt in the dish. It was so bland it must have been an error because after we added a bit it was a great dish. Everything else about it was great. The lasagna was good as well. Little gem salad was fine. Wine list was good and well priced. Service was spotty but friendly. Vibe was good. Wouldn’t go out of my way but a solid choice if you are in the area.

Terroni used to be one of our favorite restaurants in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, over the years our experiences have steadily declined, due to consistently poor service. Nearly every recent visit has ended with us leaving frustrated and with a bad taste in our mouths—certainly the opposite of how guests should feel after dining out. My party of six visited for dinner on January 3, 2026, and once again had a disappointing experience. Our server, Jassmin F., was uninformed about the menu and unpleasant throughout the meal. For a restaurant that prides itself on fresh, house-made pasta, it was surprising that she didn’t know the difference between wheat pasta and regular pasta, had no knowledge of the fish dishes, and could not distinguish between branzino and sea bream—both listed on the menu. At one point, she even argued that the restaurant only served branzino, seemingly unaware of her own menu. The lack of attentiveness continued with dessert. One guest returned a hazelnut ice cream, not realizing it contained hazelnut. This was explained to our server. The replacement dessert—also hazelnut, though not clearly labeled as such—was brought without any explanation, resulting in the same issue all over again. Requests for cheese were also met with refusal. We were not given cheese for a salad, and another guest was told outright that if they had asked for a side of cheese with their pasta, the answer would have been no. The overall demeanor from our server was rude and dismissive. Sadly, this experience is not an exception. More often than not, we’ve encountered rude or uninformed servers here. Ironically, the host staff has always been pleasant—but once you’re seated, you never interact with them again. Terroni was once a place we loved and recommended. At this point, repeated service issues have made it difficult to justify returning.

Cannot believe a single restaurant can be simultaneously this pretentious and utterly classless. On a $1300 bill, upon learning we were there for a birthday they brought a dessert with candle, which we thought was a kind gesture until they charged us for the dessert. Yes, there was a $5 charge specifically for the CANDLE! The pizza comes unsliced, and despite numerous requests for it to be sliced, they would not abide; we asked for a cutting knife or kitchen scissors or a pizza cutter and were told we are supposed to pick at it communally with our forks “like they do in Sicily” (you can order a slice of pizza in Sicily.) do not waste your time or money.
