Hugely delicious - Edit
I ordered the crispy cauliflower and fennel flatbread. The cauliflower was great but the fennel flatbread was next-level amazing. Some of the best food I’ve had in recent memory. Very friendly staff, too.

Little Pine - 3.5 - Edit
I’ve eaten here a few times in the past. Shockingly I was sitting next to Moby one time (when he was an owner). While the food was typical nicer vegan food, I was very convinced one time they served me boxed potato leek soup from Imagine Foods. I love this brand but could have just bought it for a fraction of the cost from Whole Foods. They didn’t even add anything to the soup…it was just this purée boxed soup.

Oh hey, you're welcome! Btw, Impossible foods are so gross, if you're thinking about replacing them with housemade seitan, I fully support that!

Fancy entrées - Edit
Great outdoor setting. Indoor seating is still closed. Their Mac (with a fancy name) was 👌. Crisspy kale Salad I don't get. I rather get a fresh salad didn't realize what I would get.

Lovely venue with great food - Edit
Visited Little Pine last time I was at LA, and it did not disappoint. Biggest problem was that everything in the menu looked so delicious and it was so hard to choose what to eat.
Read moreAll dishes were great and I loved the back-yard "garden" where the tables were placed.
It's definitely a must-go for any vegan foodie who is in town for a few days.
Pros: Tasty food, Lovely Venue, Good portions

Little Pine - Edit
I went with the eggplant steak as the main and banana pudding as the dessert. They were both delicious and the portion sizes were also quite satisfying! I highly recommend this place.

My only complaint is that there were too many wonderful choices on the menu. Great wine/beer list too. The small plates are not tiny and chic, they are generous, as are the entrees.

I’m not Vegan but Little Pine surprised me with how good it was. The food was amazing. What made this experience so good was also the people there. Little Pine staff is so nice as well as the customers who eat there. Everyone is so happy and the vibe is something I’ve never felt before at a restaurant. It feels loving, caring, and like you are part of a community. There were even a few dogs there. 10/10

Didn’t live up to the hype - Edit
Was pretty excited to try this place since it’s out of the way for us. We had the gnocchi, piccata, and burger. The gnocchi was tiny and we had to order the burger to really fill us up. Overall, ok food with high prices.

Best chocolate chip cookies - Edit
I’ve never ordered something here I didn’t like. They used to donate their profits to animal rescues which they don’t anymore so that’s a bummer. But the menu is delicious. Small tapas plates so the cost adds up.

Good spot suffering from pandemic woes? - Edit
I had high hopes for Little Pine, but the menu was fragmented compared to what I’d seen online previously & it was difficult to figure out what to order. It made me wonder if they were having some pandemic, supply chain issues.
Read moreUltimately the food was ok, but nothing to write home about. I did enjoy the milk & cookies at the end!

Lovely outdoor dining in Silver Lake - Edit
Had a lovely brunch at Little Pine this weekend. I ordered the off-menu croissant sandwich, which was very well done and quite filling. The sandwich was complemented by a lovely Caesar-style salad. My partner had the apple sandwich, which came with quite a spicy coleslaw (order if you love horseradish!). There was plenty of outdoor seating, wait staff were all masked, and the space was pet-friendly.
