best vegan sushi in LA I've foun. A bit pricey bc you need to order a lot. Loved the dynamite 2.0.. the green tea cake was soooo good, must try! will be back!

so good. sooooo good! get: pirates of the crunchy, yellow magic orchestra, and super pirates rolls. both the hot and sour ramen and miso ramen were delish, but i think i'd go hot and sour next time.

Besides the delicious food, Shojin is filled with the little touches that make a great dining experience. The service, baskets to stow your bags, an hourglass to brew your tea.

Try the Pirates of the Crunchy - Delicious! A #vegan #japanese #sushi #roll with fried tempeh, #spicy mayo, spicy dynamite sauce, green onion on a green vegetable roll.

Shojin has upped their game. Now not only is it delicious vegan food, it is gluten free as well.

1 of my favorite vegan spots in L.A. Amazing vegan sushi, it's so beautiful you won't want to eat it you'll just want to stare at it.

If you are here and you don't order the Dynamite Roll—spicy deliciousness—or the Spicy Baked Scallop Roll—excitingly delivered, you are missing a grand opportunity. Loved this place!

A lot of the items rated as BEST are extremely heavy...yummy but heavy in sauce. Spicy ramen was good. I would order Pirates of Crunch 2.1 but not with Dynamite Roll (way too rich to eat both).

The flavors pop of original traditional Japanese fare. One can't help just feeling well looked-after and taken care of in this cozy of a space -- like stumbling upon some secret treasure. Read more

Keeping it organic and vegetarian? This is your go-to spot in Little Tokyo. 3rd floor of the shopping center!

Food was amazing, and almost couldn't believe it was vegan after tasting. Loved the Dynamite roll.

Pirates of the crunchy roll ftw! And all their ramen dishes are delicious - you must try at least one ramen if you come.

Don't be fooled by the vial of green liquid in the soap dispenser in top of the bathroom counter- its actually mouthwash! The soap dispenser is mounted in the wall troll

Answer me this: What is not to love about a 100% vegan Japanese restaurant? If you answered "nothing," you're right. So delicious.

Spicy rock shiitake tempura!

Seems expensive for what they have to offer. Vegan need not be served with a holier than thou attitude.
