The Berkeley location is closing by the end of the year and I guess the others had all closed previously. Gracias Madre is still going.
guess LA loves vegan more than Berkeley?!?! I need to move to Texas.
I’d think that we’ve got a fair number of places with vegan options, a handful of vegan-only places, and none of them apparently are as weird as C.G.
Will there be another raw vegan place left after CG closes?
I don’t think so, but I also don’t think that CG is 100% raw anymore.
You’re right, the menu does have cooked food now.

The CG in Venice (Beach area, CA) is going strong. I have never seen this place in “slow” mode - just less busy. Moon Juice is right across the street, so this is a bastion of paradise for vegans.
I haven’t been to Judahlicious but it seems to have a raw vegan menu.
So is the one in San Diego.
Wtf? It says it makes $133,000 a month, so you’d recoup your investment in less than 2 months?..

You do know the difference between revenue vs earnings, don’t you?
Maybe not???
They really make that little profit?? Damnnnn
They bring in $133,000 a month. We don’t know what their expenses are so we don’t know how much profit they make, if any. The LLC may be carrying debt from the lawsuits they settled.
The $4,500 rent is 3.4% of revenues, which is low by industry standards.
That seems very low to me as well?
I didn’t know about lawsuits though. What were they over?
I am grateful.
