Fuegooo $$$

Bomb FOOD!!! Couldn’t believe it was vegan!!! I read the reviews on Happy Cow and they were all really goood so I knew to come here. They are expensive (like the reviews before me mentioned) but it’s ALOt of food & 100% worth the money. The pasta and garlic bread are AMAZING! I had half for lunch and had to save some for later. I warmed up the rest for later and still fireee! Will be back for more. I will more than likely purchase pizza and eggplant next time!

Pretty good food though a bit expensive

The pizza is was good, but the mac and cheese was fairly plain. Kind of pricey to get more than one item.

Pros: Nice staff

Great selection and flavor

My nonvegan family loved it! Great tasting vegan Italian food can be hard to come by, but this restaurant nailed it.

Come For The Pasta, Stay For The Fried Mushrooms!

We’ve eaten here several times and tried a number of entrees (eggplant parm, chick’n parm, pizza, salad, fettuccine Alfredo), several sides and all were excellent. But what is the real kicker for me is the fried mushrooms. I used to love those when I was younger and haven’t had them since my pre-vegan days and these are on the money. And the ranch dressing that comes with them? Trust me, order an extra one because that stuff is gooood!

All 4 of my kids LOVED each of the 9 items we ordered!

My kids are picky and might like one of several items I order at a vegan restaurant, but it was ALL good here!! Best vegan dining we’ve ever had, and we’ve experienced lots!!!

Pros: Amazing fried zucchini,mushrooms & chickn tenders, Delicious fresh pizza w/ greens on top&yum salad, Friendliest service ever!!!

Cons: None, the food was worth every penny.

Wow! So good!

California Sunshine Pizza is sooo good. I gave this place 5 stars which is rare for me. I am picky, and absolutely loved this dish. Every ingredient is delicious, fresh, and is individually delicious without relying on heavy sauces to make them better (like so many cheat vegan dishes/recipes use). The pesto was heaven, cashew cheese was melty and yummy, the toppings were fresh. Every. Ingredient. Was. So. Good. It was my first time there, but I will be going back!

Pros: Sooo many options, Reasonably sized portions

Cons: Too many options! , It’s too good to stay away from!

Everything vegan

Good vegan pizza, much better than Whole Foods. They have 2 sizes 10 & 14 inches about $4 difference in price. The chocolate chip cookies are good & surprisingly organic. But pricey at $4 for a small cookie.

Pros: Everything vegan, Organic cookies

Cons: Location, Homeless people lurking

great pizza!

I don't remember what it's called but there's a pizza with fresh spring mix and avocado on top and it was incredible! Julie, the owner, is a strong advocate for animal rights.

On Point!

Julie Goes Green is absolutely delicious! I ordered the eggplant Parmesan sandwich, garlic bread, and truffle fries. All 3 were delicious! Be sure to ask for extra marinara and dump it on the sandwich. Can’t wait to return and try some of the pastas.

Food so good I thought about it all day!

First of all, Julie is one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet!
Second, her food was better than we could’ve imagined!
My husband had the Pesto Pasta and we were skeptical of it at first but whatever is in that recipe needs to be how all pesto pasta is made!
We will be regulars for sure!

I had the Roasted Veggies and Avocado Salad and I’ll tell you what, it left a delicious, savory flavor in my mouth, ALL DAY! I felt so healthy and happy after I ate it. It was soooo good! The avocado was perfect!!!

Pros: Large portions, Excellent quality , Friendly Staff

Cons: You’ll be hooked

Vegan Italian/Pizza Shop is A+++

Wow! I love Julie's! I haven't eaten plant-based forever, and admit to having loved a few meatball sandwiches in my life. In vegan land, recreating meat items can certainly be hit or miss. I am so excited to report that the meatball sandwich at Julie Goes Green is truly better than the version with the ground up dead cow flesh! Cheesy, rich, spicy, and tomatoey on a beautiful french roll. Yum times ten. Would love to have again. The pizza is delicious as well. Beautiful crust, sauce, and toppings. Definitely in the back pocket as a go-to spot. It's mainly for take-out or delivery, though, as there is only one "community style" table there to seat about 8 people in all. Friendly, helpful staff too, and some hard working pizza ovens....

Pros: Meatball sandwich, Italian favorites, vegan style

Cons: Not really made for dine-in

Amazing food, great staff , home like environment

Been waiting to go say hi to Julie at this place for a while , had the California pizza which was really amazing, the marinara was pretty good and so was the Mac and cheese! The one table seating space is amazing and definitely encourages customers to chat with each other and just wow the sweet potato fries😉MmmMmM

Pros: Great sweet potato fries, ALL VEGAN, amazing pizza !

I Had Higher Hopes

I really wanted this place to be good. It sounded good... I don't eat pasta and the person who took my order said pasta was the most popular, so maybe I made a mistake in my food choice. I had the California Bowl because I was trying to stay on the healthier side. Even though the cheese and sauces are plant based, I try to eat those things sparingly. These days, I expect a lot of creativity and flavor when it comes to vegan meals. My CA Bowl was like "old school" Vegetarian/Vegan style. It was brown rice with cubed plain tofu (not grilled, marinated or baked...but plain old fashioned blah tofu), cubed tomato and avocado chunks. It had a hint of interesting flavor but it was not exciting. I ate it all but will not go back. If you like basic American comfort style Italian that is plant based, this would be ok for you.

Pros: Easy parking, Comfort Food

Great pizza, generous portions

Their vegan pizza is the closest tasting to non-vegan pizza that I’ve had. Absolutely delicious! They have “traditional” and non-traditional toppings to choose from, and the staff had great recommendations for toppings that they felt carried better flavor.
The atmosphere is nice and cozy. There’s one communal table so I wouldn’t rely on being able to eat in, although it is a nice option if it’s not busy.
I haven’t tried anything other than the pizza, but while waiting for my order there were sit-down patrons who ordered pasta, a sub, salad, and the mac ‘n cheese. The portions were enormous! The food smelled delicious, and it looked like everyone was enjoying what they ordered.
The location is in a typical strip mall. Not a tiny parking lot, but limited spaces that could fill up during peak business hours.
Note that if ordering the gluten-free crust, it’s only available as a 10”. The large-sized regular crust pizza is 14”.

Pros: All vegan menu, Generous toppings and portions, Knowledgeable staff

Cons: Small location w/ only one communal table, Strip mall parking typical of LA

The pasta here was amazing, good size portions. Excited to come back and try the pizza. There is only one community table that has about 8 chairs.
