This is my absolute favorite restaurant! The oyster mushroom tacos and artichoke hearts are a MUST HAVE. The toppings on the tacos (I get avocado added) are so fresh and it’s such a flavorful satisfying meal. The artichoke hearts and the house marinara are insanely good. They somehow taste like mozzarella sticks, but better. I still haven’t had everything on the menu yet, since I recently moved, but what I have had so far, is the BEST! I also love some of the non-toxic, eco-friendly containers that I get when I order take – out. ♥️♥️♥️

It was okay! Nothing special.. Menudo was a very small potion, flavor was good but have had better. Service wasn’t bad

Nothing too special, a bit overpriced. Dessert was terrible. From the ambience, service and food… it’s just average. The loaded fries saved the meal, loved the skinny fries with yummy cheese and amazing smell of “bacon”… but the grilled burger smelled way too much like smoke, the loaded nachos were okay. Service wasn’t bad at all, but it wasn’t great neither. It’s just meh. We ordered the Sunday brownie and eww, it was hard, crumbling like bread and tasteless. The little tiny scoop of ice cream didn’t help much.

Delicious hip plant based restaurant serving tasty vegan options of comfort food. Been here multiple times and it’s been reliable. Just a short walk to the Starlight cinemas on Greenleaf in Whittier. What I really enjoyed were the Jackfruit nachos, fried avocado tacos, fried oyster mushroom tacos, salad bowl. I wasn’t overly thrilled with the alfredo pasta since it was hyped up as a very popular dish but it was just okay. Great spot to stop by for a pre or post movie night!

What a find! Had a delicious meal with a delightful staff. We sampled six dishes. My favorite was the chicken and waffles with mushroom gravy. Also thought the corn dog was fun and tasty! Enjoyed everything including the Benedict, Menudo soup (the small size is a generous portion!), jackfruit nachos and avocado toast. Lovey to find such a great vegan plant-based restaurant in Whittier!

Not a vegan but still find myself enjoying modern shaman about once a month! If you didn’t know it was a plant based restaurant you truly wouldn’t be able to tell. Everything is so flavorful and filling. I recommend the loaded cheese fries, alfredo noodles, and corn dog w cheese sauce. If you like margaritas you must try the spicy margarita!! Too good!!!!

I am a hard hardcore carnivore as they come. I decided to come here in support of my cousin who is Vegan. I was SO surprised & very impressed with my dining experience! The jackfruit nachos were amazing! I also ordered a pomegranate mimosa & rounded things off with the chocolate brownie. I will absolutely be back again & this experience taught me not to be so fearful of Vegan options that are out there.

The flavors were good, yes. I’ll give it to them buuuuut there was a live bug on the tacos in the picture. I had them redone but still got charged full price. Service could be better. And it’s kinda overpriced.
