We were in La Jolla for a spa event at LivKraft, and wanted to have dinner nearby after checking out the Parisien bakery across the street (highly recommended BTW).So we stopped at the Green Door Cafe to grab a quick bite, and noticed they had a happy hour from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., which had appetizers including sambusas and potato dill fritters. The sambusa appetizer came with threes and buses, one was potato, one was spinach, and one was lentils with a swing sour sauce and some pieces of lettuce. The potato dill fritter came with a little salsa.We weren't very hungry, and just wanted to try their appetizers for their friend highly recommended this place, and it was great. Everything is vegan. There's an outdoor patio area, with small tables, and parking was very easy. The service was great.

I went to UCSD to attend a talk by Dr. Greger and came here for brunch afterwards. We found out that Dr. Greger had breakfast at Green Door Cafe before heading to the university as well. I had been hearing a lot about this place and I am glad I finally got a chance to check it out. The Cuban Reuben was a favorite among the group. I got a side of the coconut bacon which was delicious. I would love to go back and try the dinner menu. This is an adorable place, walking distance from the La Jolla Cove. We all walked down to the beach and even got the opportunity to watch the beautiful sunset.

My friend and I were walking in the area and decided to pop our heads in for a quick bite to eat. So glad we did! Chef Martin was friendly and attentive.Everything is vegan/vegetarian but so packed with flavor, you wouldn't even notice! The portions are large and filling so it's more than enough to share. It was also very peaceful and clean outdoors, perfect to enjoy some sunshine. We will be back soon!

I love the food so much at The Green Door. They make all their meals with love. And I feel like I'm eating at home. Its unfortunate it is next to Trilogy Restaurant with all It's extras. but,as far as food goes The Green Door Restaurant is light years better. I'm writing this review so more people will eat there because I hardly ever see many people there. I don't want it to close. We need to step it up and support even though the seating isn't perfect. Check out the deserts the Bomb Burger, and salads..

I went to the green door cafe to sit outside and have a glass of wine? The patio is eclectic and cute. Very inviting. I had Pinot Grigio and enjoyed it. I was impressed with the varied vegan menu. They serve high tea, make expresso drinks, appetizers and make lasagna!The server was very welcoming and nice. I will go back for a meal.

Very cute vegan cafe in La Jolla, decorated with lots of plants and feels very homey and also gave me old diner vibes. Met up with some friends and we all ordered the pesto panini, it comes with a soup. We also ordered the red velvet pancakes to share and it was yummy! One of my friends can't eat gluten so we were so glad they had some GF options! Always a plus. I had the golden milk latte and it was soothing for the cold day. We stayed for hours just chatting, the place has a very chill ambiance and home-made feel.

Was walking in the area with my mother and ran into this cute spot. The plantation appealed to us and we were getting hungry from our walk. Considered it an appetite and cute spot to talk and relax. Our host was very helpful and kind.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in LA but I am often unable to make it as they close at 5 PM. I've never been disappointed. My parents were visiting me from abroad and they also enjoyed it a lot. The bite sized tiramisu was a such a pleasant surprise.

Excellent vegan restaurant and tons of gluten free options as well. The avocado toast for breakfast, the bruschetta as an app, and the Buddha bowl for dinner are my top choices! They have indoor and outdoor seating and you can bring your dogs. Highly recommend!
