EVO Kitchen

Casual and friendly neighborhood place. Great vegan & gluten free options as well as «regular» options. Pizza is outstanding. We come here from work at least once a week and ALWAYS have a good meal. Soup and salads are also very good. Prices are fair and service is easy and laid back, very friendly. Easy parking in lot behind EVO.

This place carefully crafts my favorite pizza in LA. Are you thinking about which one? What pizza could claim this title?! I believe it to be the avocado salad pizza… Salad and pizza? Yes it’s a great combination. I can eat a large and still feel awesome afterwards. Quality ingredients, and quality people make this a terrific restaurant for you and your loved ones.

Had the Veggie Hummus Wrap and it was pretty delicious. The only thing was that the artichokes started to become a little too much for me. Otherwise was pretty tasty.

I love love love this restaurant! Stopped in to eat before a screening at the DGA.
Great vegan pizza with AMAZING gluten free crust. Nice place to eat when you and your spouse have different dietary needs!!!
Amazing beer selection and the sangria was to die for!
The only ding is that the tables weren’t very clean. They kind of need to be scrubbed!

Should have listened to the reviews… terrible. The blandest food I think I’ve ever eaten in LA. I don’t think they used one single solitary spec of salt (or pepper for that matter) on anything. Won’t be going back.

Participating In Veganuary 2016, I created a list of potential vegan eats and this restaurant alongside veggie grill were the closest.
On Sunday night we placed a pick up order using Unilocal.We ordered:
— Garlic Cheese Bread
— Breakfast pizza (served all day)
— vegan veggie avocado wrap
— Tea
When my boyfriend arrived he was surprised to find out that they were waiting for his arrival to pour the hot water for his tea and cut the avocados so that they were as fresh as possible. That being said they provided excellent service!
The food all smelled amazing. My boyfriend loved the pizza — he did mention the crust being over cooked but that didn’t stop him from devouring it. The multi grain wrap is out of this world and the tahini dressing was delicious. It’s a hefty size of a wrap so I was extremely full afterwards. Overall he food was great so we’ll definitely be ordering here soon!

Parking was easy in the lot. 1 hour for free with validation.
Ordered the mushrooms, veggie avocado wrap and the veggie pizza vegan style with the diet cheese.
The mushrooms were not that flavorful. I added salt. Wouldn’t order those again. The arugula salad was very fresh, dressing very very light, the wrap was delicious with the multi-​grain bread (servers choice) would definitely order the wrap again. Seriously great.
I’m also surprised by the pizza. It was also on multi gain bread as well. They are very light in the salt which is good since you can always add more and not take any off in my opinion. The amount of veggies was fair but wish there were more mushrooms. Crust was crispy, cooked perfectly and at a great eating temperate. I would even order this pizza again. I’m very particular with pizza. They do have gluten free options for the pizza if you want that. 5 stars. Indie pop music playing but not too loud. Will definitely come back.

Can’t remember what we ordered here but it
was super bland and apparently unmemorable :/

Solid spot with vegan/​vegetarian options. I usually pick up from this spot when in the Hollywood/​West Hollywood area (never eat there). Not the most exciting spot in terms of taste/​creativity (I wouldn’t bring visitors in town here), but never disappointing. Great way to get an affordable, hearty meal (when hungover) without the guilt. Also an easy way to satisfy group orders when sharing with vegans/​veggies.

I’ve been wanting to try this place out for a while, as its trendy and close to my office. Next to Orange Theory Fitness, The Griddle, and across the street from The Counter, seems like a healthier spot.
Honestly, it was only OKAY. Service took a while. Got the Cobb salad which was really nothing special, they didn’t even toss it (more just separated the ingredients out on the plate) and the chicken tasted rubbery. Probably wouldn’t go here again as the plate wasn’t flavorful, although big portion size.

Are you kidding me?
Prime location… Poor menu!
I ordered the raw veggies with hummus and fig tapenade. What came out was a pile of cucumbers and a few Julianne cut bell peppers and two small ramekins of dip! I don’t think so! For $ 7.99 this was a joke!
I don’t want to be the one who complains all the time but stop and look at the practiced value of what your serving to the guests.
Servers are rude too
Pizza is not bad.

I never leave bad reviews but this will be my first one because I really wish someone warned me about this place haha.
The pizza is super bland but the review is specifically because we received terrible service from CONNER. There were two other tables besides ours, and he took forever to serve me my drink. And when i finally raised my hand he plopped it down on the table and said «is this what you were worried about?». The rest of our time there he just made us feel like such a burden. I’d understand the random rudeness if he was stressed and busy but it was dead. If i’m gonna pay so much money for bland pizza, mediocre service would have at least made the experience so much better. Nobody needs your passive aggressive comments especially when we’re being patient and not even complaining to you. Pretty unfortunate.

Watched a movie at the nearby grove and decided to stop by before hitting the canyon. This place is awesome!
I had the Arugula avocado salad pizza (salad on top of pizza. The dough is multi grain (delicious), extremely thin, and it’s perfectly toasted. They add an olive oil on top of the salad, which is amazing. They have also have natural fountain sodas, draft beers, and mixed drinks. Service was good. Will definitely come back!
Btw vegetarian friendly menu

Healthy pizza? That doesn’t sound right. But Evo Kitchen manages to make it happen. They have regular pizza too, don’t get me wrong, but if you’re in the market for gluten-​free pizza with vegan cheese (a rarity) this is your place. What’s that you say? It sounds terrible? YOU’RE WRONG. AND NOBODY ASKED YOU.
Evo prides themselves in local and organic food and if you’re health conscious that’s always a plus. It’s not the greatest restaurant in the city but they’re pretty good at offering a decemt selection or regular and vegetarian items.
They serve «Breakfast all Day» and the Vegan Soyrizo Scramble is the move. (Soyrizo, Mushrooms, Zucchini, Tomatoes, Onions & Potatoes. Yum.)
Salads: they’ll sub-​out items you don’t like on all of the salads but your best bets are the:
Pear & Toasted Almond Salad (Mixed Greens, Organic Pear, Toasted Almond & Gorgonzola) (you can sub Daiya cheese or no cheese)
Spinach, Fig & Goat Cheese Salad (Baby Spinach, Black Mission Figs, Toasted Almonds, Goat Cheese) (same if you want no cheese or vegan cheese)
And in the no subs necessary department, the Baby Kale, Spinach & Arugula Salad is already vegan (Mixed Baby Kale, Spinach, Wild Arugula, Shredded Carrots & Toasted Almonds)
Only 2 of their dressings are vegan — the vinaigrette and the Goddess but that’s one extra dressing more than most places.
They do have chicken and salmon, if you eat that stuff, but I’m focusing on the vegan options because that’s how I roll.
Their Vegan Plate is simple and healthy. (And gluten free) Seasonal Veggies, Roasted Potatoes, House Salad or Spinach /​Almond Salad. Not super exciting but a nice option.
All of their pizzas are awesome and can be made with their Organic Traditional, Multi-​grain or Gluten-​Free (Add $ 2) as well. All pizzas can also be made with regular cheese or you can substitute Soy Cheese or Daiya.
You can create your own and make it as you like and if you want to order off the menu there are two vegan options:
V For Vegan (Marinara, Soy or Daiya Cheese, Mushrooms & Roasted Peppers)
and
Veggin’ Out (Roasted Portobello, Tomatoes, Roasted Zucchini, Onions, Marinara & Soy or Daiya cheese)
They also do wraps and 3 out of 4 can be made vegan.
Located on Sunset in the big building across from the Car Wash there is limited street parking (some spots on Hayworth) but you can park underneath in a big lot and they will validate.
Ambiance is just okay. Staff is nice and accommodating and they do care if you have allergies.
People watching can be epic. It’s right on Sunset so if the weather is nice you can sit at one of the tables outside and wait for the magic to happen.
p. s. With a check-​in you get a free Natural Soda

Their pizzas are hands down some of my favorite in the city.
I lived above this place for years and it’s very dangerous I must say.
I’ve had to have an intervention with myself because I was ordering it too much.
The family that operates this place is very friendly and extremely hard working. They are there everyday.
Good luck to them.

This place is such a gem!
Great prices, fresh food, lots of dietary options, and beer on tap. I’m sold.
Visited with a girlfriend from work who wanted to see my Unilocal spot finding ways in action and I told her how I had this place bookmarked forever, so we decided to drop in on a Tuesday night for dinner.
The place has a great ambiance but with a casual vibe– so you can come in jeans but you could also bring a date here. The menu has a nice spread of options, but we heard pizza was their thing so we both ordered a different pizza: she ordered the BBQ Chicken Pizza and I ordered the Avocado Salad pizza. Both plates were amazing and we polished them off in no time.
The service was great too! Our waiter helped us pick out what we wanted and even gave me some fun facts when I had trouble picking a beer to try with my pizza. Such a great spot! I’ll definitely be back!

Bland and dry is the best way to describe the food here. My husband and friends hung out snacking and lounging at the park all day on Monday when we finally decided we needed real food. Pregnant ladies tend to get first pick on food, so when I suggested pizza my friend picked EVO Kitchen since it’s close to her house.
To start we had half of a mango avocado salad which was just arugula, cucumbers, and a bit of lemon juice. I was not asked if I wanted any dressing or olive oil and it was not very pleasant to eat dry. My husband and I shared a small order of bbq wings which were tiny and a bit dry again. Finally, the small pizza — chicken, spinach & roasted garlic, minuscule amount of sauce and they give you garlic salt to add yourself which isn’t surprising because the pizza had absolutely no flavor.
The waitress was cordial, waters were refilled, table was clean, but I just did not like the food. I won’t be back.

THIS PLACE IS FANTASTIC. Healthy pizza that’s delicious… sign me up!!!
We got the 2 pizzas that were recommended to us: Avocado Salad Pizza and the Veggin’ Out PIzza. My definite favorite was the Veggin’ Out. I actually felt good after eating it instead of heavy and unhealthy.
We sat outside and it was really nice minus the angry, honking drivers and my friend was able to bring her dog. The waitress that we had was also very nice and just awesome. I think half her head was shaved… not sure, all I know is that I loved her hair and how outgoing she was. It makes the dining experience that much better!
Also, they brought a water bowl for the dog, which was so nice! Will definitely be back!

A whole lot of vegan options and will accommodate just about any allergies or preferences! The portions don’t seem big, but when you get started, they fill you up for sure.
The wines are vegan and not too pricey at all. Great little intimate spot with validated parking. The staff (all of them) were friendly, polite and fun to have a good conversation with.
Recommended.

It’s a very casual little place. It’s not too crowded, service is fast, and there’s free garage parking with validation. All major pro’s for a restaurant in the area.
1. Vanilla cream soda (free if you check in on Unilocal!): free refills, really delicious. Complemented my meal perfectly.
2. BBQ burger sliders: Delicious. It’s on baked ciabatta bread, some sautéed onions, and delicious beef patties. I very much enjoyed this dish. It was flavorful and satisfying, but not greasy.
3. Cobb salad: I did like this dish since they did not overdo the dressing, but it came on a plate, so it was very hard to mix. The avocados and chicken were both fresh, but I wish they were slightly flavored. The chicken didn’t have any texture.
4. Breakfast burrito: DELICIOUS. It was huge and stuffed full of your delicious condiments. Definitely recommend, even for dinner.
Overall, a very solid place to grab dinner. They also have a happy hour!
