Govinda's Natural Foods Cafe

Great restaurant in a serene environment. Located right next to the Hare Krishna temple, this 100% vegetarian restaurant serves an all-you can eat buffet of healthy food such as salad, pasta/spaghetti, samosas, soup, rice and dal, and more. Post COVID they changed it from self-serve to being served, but it's still the same nutritious and delicious food as always. Highly recommended, Hare Krishna!

I have been coming to Govinda’s since it used to be across the street on Venice Blvd in the 80’s full disclosure I’m of the faith - Hare Krishna. This food is so fresh and delicious, the salad dressings, the samosa’s, the dokla all a must have. I do miss the sandwich bar.

Just wow! I was introduced to that cafeteria by my bf during Covid. I can’t remember much of it back then so it musn’t have been anything special (I do take notes of good food spots!), therefore neither good nor bad. While driving in that area today, and it happens that I am currently on a vegan diet, I decided to grab lunch over there. OMG! The place has been so nicely updated!!! And the food was just WOW! Sooo good! 6.50/lb. Will definitely go back again!

Govinda's Natural Foods Cafe at 3764 Watseka Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90034 In my continuous Journey always looking for a healthy option for lunch I found another beautiful spot in Los Angeles California. Not only is the neighborhood in the area peaceful and to get a good healthy meal was a very positive experience. I really did like the samosas and the hummus was well right. The two soups I ate with my meal, I went a little overboard warning extra food but it was truly delicious.

One of my absolute favorite lunch spots in Los Angeles! Govinda Cafe stands out not only for its healthy, fresh, and high-quality food but also for the warmth and kindness of everyone who works there. The meals are made daily without onions or garlic, perfectly suited for the Krishna diet, and you can feel the care that goes into every dish. Every day, there’s a different menu, served with a smile, and it’s almost impossible to find a better deal in LA. Nestled in a neighborhood known for some of the best Indian cuisine in the city, Govinda Cafe offers a softer, more traditional approach that’s both satisfying and unique. The dal over rice is consistently delicious, and the samosas are always fresh and flavorful. If you’re looking for a place that serves nourishing food with a sense of community, Govinda Cafe is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

Lovely spot. Food is very fresh and delicious. They will let you know what is in everything. Food is sold by weight. I spent 14 plus tip for a full plate of food, salad, samosa and a spindrift drink. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Definitely recommend especially if you are veg. There is free parking as well. There is also a store on the second floor, but I didn't go up. There are stairs but I don't know if they have an elevator. Restaurant is wheelchair accessible though.
