Cool spot. Health store and restaurant together. Everyone recommended smoothies and we tried one and it was delicious. Large was plenty to share. I loved that they had a lot of vegetarian options. Food took 45min to get, they say it’s made fresh and def tasted fresh. Menu says 30-45min but we didn’t notice that until waiting for almost half hour. The shop was full of all kinds of food, seasoning and products, small frozen section, snacks, and herbal items. No one asked if I needed help so I just wondered around and checked it out. Water was available only bottled, lots of varieties, and you can get their own “spring water” for a dollar. All food is packed to go, so dining experience wasn’t as nice as I was hoping and reminded me of Covid times. Overall enjoyed the place a lot and was able to browse around while waiting for food. They have daily specials, and advertised a workshop for upcoming Wednesday but couldn’t go since it was 12-6. I ordered blacked tofu, and it was nicely cooked, liked the texture, sort of like a tofu steak. It came with steamed vegetables that weren’t really seasoned, but the spinach and mushroom side was tasty. My hubby ordered the Sunday Meal with chicken, fried, and it came with delicious greens (not sure if vegetarian), and super sweet and cinnamony yams. Chicken was thin strips, and very tough but otherwise all tasted great. I’m already looking forward to coming back, and now that I know the food takes time, I’ll know to expect that. Don’t go when already starving. They had bunch of patties that I would like to try!

Ordered the Fish Tacos ($9.49) onions, tomatoes, red sauce, red & green bell peppers, black beans with sliced avocado and small green salad. HORRIBLE idea to put marinara sauce on the fish taco with black beans then salsa on the side. Disgusting. The patties and juices are always 10 on a scale of 1 to 10.

The food is very good from the restaurant. The Wednesday special with the blackened salmon is bomb. Also picked up some sea moss gel from here to, a big variety of healthy supplements too.

The best top-tier black-owned business I’ve ever experienced. Loved their smoothies so much I’m addicted. You can shop in the market, then grab a meal right after. The best part about the establishment is the outdoor patio…you can enjoy your meal and look at the LA neighborhood.

SIMPLY WHOLESOME is a staple in the community whose mission is clear…HEAL YOUR COMMUNITY FROM THE INSIDE OUT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE! CALI HISTORY! Family owned and I believe it’s predominantly family operated. (SERVICE ✅) There was a nice amount of people in line when I arrived. It wasn’t long before someone came and started taking orders with a handheld device to expedite the lunch rush. Everyone that interacted with was nice and knowledgeable of the menu. (FOOD/RESTAURANT✅) I ordered a few patties (spinach, and 2 seafood). I’m sitting in bed writing this now and I want to go back! (JUICE ✅) Smoothies and bottled drinks were amazing. (STORE ✅) Shopping in the health food store is so heartwarming, because you can feel the purpose behind each product. I purchase my seamoss from here and it’s great.
