The Spot – South Bay – Plant-Based – Vegan – Restaurant

ABOUT THE SPOT

Hi! You've hit The Spot!

Welcome to The Spot. We are a natural food, vegetarian restaurant. Most of our menu is available gluten-free, fat free and non-dairy, or “vegan”. We always serve organic whole grains and legumes. We use seasonal organic produce when available. We serve and cook only with purified water. Our homemade bread, cornbread and desserts are sweetened with raw agave. None of our recipes contain isolated soy protein (SPI). Our fat free soups never contain any oils or dairy products.

Originally established in 1977, The Spot is the oldest existing vegetarian restaurant in Los Angeles.

Over the years, as Hermosa Beach grew from a small, sleepy beach town to a major tourist destination, the Spot has become world famous for their award-winning Spot Veggie Burger and Savory Sauce.

Today, the Spot has become one of Southern California’s most popular vegetarian restaurants. Their recipe book, “The Spot Cook Book: Recipes from the Heart” has sold many thousands of copies worldwide.

"The Spot offers a diverse menu to satisfy any palate. Everything on the menu is delicious, decadent and wholesome."

"Whole grains, legumes, veggies and tofu are magically transformed into exquisitely delicious vegetarian culinary concoctions."

"For those who believe vegan faire cannot be flavorful and satisfying, take them to The Spot and let them be enlightened."

"The unpretentious and humble exterior offers little hint of the gourmet faire being produced in the kitchen. One of LA's very best."
