Delicious fresh food that’s extremely healthy - Edit
Wow. This is the kind of food I CRAVE. Perhaps because they are not fully vegan, Lamara did not show up on my google searches for vegan food when I was initially planning my trip to New Orleans. (They are vegetarian; some items include cheese, eggs, or honey.) I was lucky to discover Lamara on a handy list of veg-friendly spots posted at Breads on Oak.
Read moreAs soon as I browsed the menu at Lamara, I was infatuated. They are seed oil-free and refined sugar free; they do use coconut oil and olive oil in most dishes, but minimal amounts. They go out of their way to bake many components of their hot dishes such as tortillas, tofu, and potatoes, in order to minimize oil. So many fascinating items like homemade adzuki bean bacon. After much deliberation (since I only had the time for a light meal), I ordered the rainbow tostadas, made with refried pinto beans, oil-free cashew cilantro cream, spiralized yellow beets, romaine, purple cabbage, and avocado on baked corn tortillas. Visually stunning, impeccably fresh, and low in salt (but high in flavor). Impressive. I also had a hot chocolate with their homemade oil-free almond milk; delicious, and quite reasonably priced at only $4. I took the raw protein bites to go (oil-free, with almond butter). Great little treat that I would definitely get again.
I’m basically obsessed with everything this place has to offer, and had a difficult time not ordering one of everything on the menu. In addition, the staff were extremely patient and helpful in answering my many questions about ingredients. They made it easy for me to make the right choices for my diet. I wish there were more places like this. Please open a location in the northeast ASAP! 😍
Pros: Seed oil free and overall low in oil, Extremely knowledgable and helpful staff, Delicious and satisfying food

Solid house-made burger - Edit
Pretty much everything in this place is Vegan. Speaking with the cashier, there are just a couple items with honey and egg. The burger Patty is vegan (no-egg).

Cons: Portions could be slightly bigger.

Really Like It - Edit
I love their oat milk coffee drinks, the tostadas, and the avocado toast. This place is walking distance for me so slowly getting to know it. Food isn’t made with fatty oils, it’s healthy food. Great alternative to other options in town. There’s an outdoor back patio and great spot for meetings.

Nice atmosphere, ok food - Edit
Menu was short of many options due to supply chain issues affecting everyone, so our options were limited. Soup of the day was very wholesome. Burger was well seasoned but mushy (think Dr Praegers).
Read moreThe space is beautiful and brightly lit. If i lived close by, it could easily be my coffee spot.
This place’s biggest issue is that nothing really stands out on the menu, and Sweet Soulfood is a stone’s throw away.
Pros: All vegetarian, Outdoor seating, Hip atmosphere
Cons: Food is decent but not memorable, Brunch relies heavily on eggs

Excellent food - Edit
Casual restaurant with excellent food and good ambiance. We went for lunch and had the Lamara burger and the seasonal soup, similar to Minestrone. The soup was delicious.
