"Comedian Kevin Hart is growing his restaurant empire, adding a fourth location of Hart House right near the USC campus at 3726 S. Figueroa Street in University Park. The space, opening this summer, will offer the plant-based casual menu but this time it’ll come wrapped in a 2,300-square-foot indoor-outdoor hangout space. Expect dozens of patio seats, string lights, games, fire pits, and more." - Farley Elliott

Heart house is kind of my go to when it's near by. It's affordable, quick and tastes delicious. I think l've been to each location and they are always consistent so that's always a plus. The staff is always a pleasure I always recommend this place to my none vegan friends. It's always clean with nice clean bathrooms you don't see that these days great job guys keep it up.

Technically, they hit all the marks to make a good burger (variety of sauces, different types of vegan patties, the vegetables that traditionally accompany burgers), but they don't fully deliver the bursts of flavors and breadth that you anticipate when ordering your meal. The bread felt flattened, the patty was thin, the vegetables didn't have a crunch to them, and sauces were just sweet. Was it filling? Yes. But was it fulfilling? No.

I came here around mid-day with a friend to try out the burgers. Parking was a bit tough. There is metered street parking and structure lot parking. The ambiance is really nice. The outdoor eating area is really nice - there is a water fountain and corn hole. The employees are nice and have good vibes. I ordered the hot n spicy crispy chick’n. I really wanted to love it. The alt meat patty itself is juicy, but the ‘lettuce’ is literally like one of those kale salad bags you get at the grocery store. I didn’t understand the point of the kale salad on top. The fries were good, and the sauces were okay. Overall it was okay, the burgers could use some revamping. I’d come again to try a different food item in the future.

Hart House is simple yet good vegan food. I really enjoy their chicken nuggets and their shakes are great. You can't go wrong with fries but their tots are pretty perfect. The servers are friendly and there's tons of seating outside, most under umbrellas. This location is convenient for students and employees of USC but is also accessible to the rest of the surrounding community which is a plus. Parking is accessible through the side where you have to grab a ticket. Note, they require a credit/debit card before entry which will be automatically charged if you go over the minimum free time.

The burgers were well seasoned. You can't tell that they are meatless. The chicken patties were a good size but I ate the single burger, which was supposed to be the alternative to a beef burger. The patty was soooo thin that I could only really taste the bread and cheese. I had to take a bite out of the patty by itself to notice that it had its own flavor. You'd have to order the double to get a good taste of the burger. Other than that, I hope one comes to Maryland. I wouldn't mind trying the chicken next time.

LOVE that Hart House is expanding out from their Westchester location and opening up more locations around town. The fact that this location is so close to USC makes it an easy lunch spot whenever I am in the area. I ordered their Kale Salad with Chick'n to be a bit healthier in a sea of vegan junk food, and I also got a milkshake so that kind of cancels itself. The salad was great and the pieces of chick'n complimented it very well. All of the dining space is situated outside of the restaurant. Given that LA has 90% nice sunny days, this is not an issue and can be a nice welcomed change of pace for anyone visiting. PS: Don't mess it without trying it first. I saw so many people coming in and the moment the staff tell them it's all plant-based, they chuckle and leave like they wouldn't enjoy the food. It's not for everyone, but at least give it a try before assuming you wouldn't like it. You know apples are vegan, and you like apples, right?

The manager Joe is always a welcoming presence along with his staff always ready to assist and make your dinning experience so much better. I frequently stop by to enjoy their delicious shakes Also group games to occupy your time while you relaxing and unwinding I personally recommending you give this spot a try again

If you didn't know, this place is owned by Kevin Hart, and the entire menu is vegan/plant based! They have burgers, chicken, fries, and milkshakes. I got the spicy chicken sandwich and fries. I ordered online through their website and picked it up. The prices are good, comparable to non vegan food prices. (Usually vegan food is more expensive). The food was ready fast. The worker was nice and the place was clean and modern looking. They have a really nice outdoor area with a huge water fountain and even games to play. I should have taken a photo of it. Well anyway, the food was really yummy! If you are a meat eater you will still thoroughly enjoy the food 100%. The sandwich was actually spicy and the kale slaw on the sandwich was a nice touch. I also really liked the brioche bun, it tasted buttery. Overall, I will definitely be back!

I strolled in here today and had the best Classic burger with cheese and taters. Johan was a total sweetie and took care of my order. It's USC grad day and I almost didn't make it in but I found parking at a meter since the garage lot was charging $50 for the graduation events. I felt bad for the local businesses like this one. They will take a hit on business today. I swear this burger does not taste plant based. It was so delicious and hot the spot. I feel so light and good after having it. Delicious ketchup and taters. Crisp and hot! The drinks are all natural and healthier than soda.

A really great option if you're looking for a wonderful plant-based meal that's also quick. However, I did find it to be a bit pricey, as most of the burgers and sandwiches were around ~$12+ by themselves. I really enjoyed the Vanilla Shake, it's made from a pea protein base. If you're in the area, and craving a chicken sandwich, burger, or even a shake, it's definitely worth checking out. The service is friendly and quick, the ambiance in the outside patio seating is very nice as well. Foods: 4/5 Beverages/Shakes: 4.5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 3/5 Overall: 4/5

The first time visiting a hard house !' So many yummy tempting delicious options to choose from. you would have no idea everything is vegan. First, let me say everyone there was so kind and friendly, great customer service across-the-board. They're spicy chicken was the perfect amount of spicy. Moist and crispy. If you're into slaw, the Kale slaw is the perfect addition. They don't have any indoor seating at this location, but they have a ton of outdoor seating. Very casual. Think fast food but good quality.

I had no idea this was a vegan restaurant- much less one fronted by Kevin Hart. I am not vegan but I do enjoy plant based food. I love products from Impossible so that is what I compared the food to. The spicy nuggets here were a huge disappointment. The sauce makes it less crispy so I don't recommend getting it tossed in that. The texture is dense and spongy. The hamburgers were worse sadly. The texture and taste was just not appetizing. The crispy chicken sandwich tasted the best and of course the tator tots were fine. Unfortunately I've had way better vegan food than this place.

Food: I do not eat vegan often, but I decided to check this place out after hearing great reviews via word of mouth. I got a chicken sandwich, and although it is fully plant-based, I would have liked some more toppings (lettuce, tomato) in addition to the patty and bun. I don't know what the average price for vegan food is, but this seemed to be on the higher end for fast food. It was pretty good. I think there's only so much my body can take until my stomach gets upset. Service: Like your typical fast food locations. Order at the counter. If I recall correctly, I think they give numbers so your order will be served at the table you choose. Ambiance: Very casual. Not much indoor seating. Most seating is outside which can be inconvenient during cooler months. Parking: On the (busy) street.

For a vegetarian option of a chicken sandwich I would highly suggest Hart House. This location specifically was very clean, customer service was friendly and fast, and the area is pretty nice. The outside seating area is very nice. The tater tots are very delicious, I definitely recommend.

This isn't my first visit to this location. I was here a couple of days after the grand opening and to be honest, not much has changed. - The food is enjoyable, but nothing super special. Your typical plant based chick'un and fries/tots. - The service was okay. With just two other people's orders ahead of mine, it honestly took about 20 minutes and even longer for the guys in front of me. I can't imagine what the wait time would be if USC was in session! - It's a bit cramped inside, but not much can be done about that. Honestly, the precious store, Coffee Bean had more space. Overall, if you're looking for some vegan/plant based food on the (kinda) go, Hart House has options. I won't go as far to say this is one of my favorite spots, however, I will say that having a plant based option in this area definitely isn't a bad thing.

I really enjoyed the Hart house, this is the third location that I have been to, it is my favorite so far. This location in University Park, at USC and across the street from the science center is a wonderful addition to the area. I ate here in the afternoon, around 2:30pm, I didn't have any line, customer service was very helpful and friendly. This location also has great seating outside with the nice large fountain for ambience and outside cornhole for games. I ordered a Double Burg'r, Crispy tots and of course the Oreo Shake. For a plant-based restaurant, I would definitely recommend this for people looking for an alternative to real meat restaurants. From visiting other locations, the food here tasted different, it all tasted fresh and delicious as usual, but the milkshake to me was the highlight. For me, this locations atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. I really enjoyed eating outside atmosphere a vibe you can't get with the other locations. The Hart House is unlike typical fast food restaurants, their ingredients are plant-based, with no cholesterol, antibiotics, hormones, artificial colors, preservatives, high-fructose corn syrup, or trans fats. The menu features "plant-forward" food including sandwiches, salads, nuggets, fries, tots and milkshakes. I have tried almost everything on the menu, and I haven't had anything so far I did not enjoy. I definitely would recommend this Hart House location if you are in the area.

Stopped by after a local yelp event and got to try the deluxe hot chick'n and classic hart burger and I would definitely say that for vegan protein the pea protein is pretty good. the chick'n patty was virtually indistinguishable from an actual processed chicken patty. ( like a chicken nugget texture) and the burger patty was pretty similar to a McDonald's burger patty for texture. The slaw and cheese and brioche were all great. Since our wait was unusually long, staff comped me a side of fries and a sample of their vegan shake which was very appreciated for the customer service. Parking is street or free at the Tuscany for 45 mins. If in the area looking for a meat free option, this is a good one!

The food was alright but a tad bit pricey but I gather all food is high right now right....Your average combo runs about $17 with fries and a drink. The service was average your typical college students working inside. The Ambiance is giving total college vibes! Outdoor patio and streaming music playing in the background that was nice. Also, the area has cops circling the block often because you know how they roll on that side of town. But of course we're right across the street from USC. Go Trojans!!!

Oh my...I was like what is the hype...until I saw a YouTube video review and now tried this myself. Hart House is delicious!! I wish they opened one more south east. We tried their hot chkn burger and a mix of tots and fries. We also tried their berry juice, lemonade. Their Oreo shake was also very delicious. The chkn was moist and freshly fried so crispy. Fries and tots were crispy too. It was all very good!! I would recommend getting the deluxe version to have some kale salad mix in the burger too. The brioche bun makes the burger so much better too

As a non meat eater, this place is delicious!! It's hard to find good vegan restaurants, but Hart House seems to have perfected it. I didn't know Kevin Hart had a restaurant, a vegan one at that but he definitely designed a place with a fun environment and delicious menu. The staff were patient and friendly, the food doesn't come out as fast as a fast food spot but the food is worth the wait. My partner and I each ordered the deluxe hot n crispy chick'n sandwich and shared a large portion of the frots. The large portion of frots were definitely enough to split, we could barely finish them after eating our giant sandwiches. This is the first place where my "chicken" sandwich really replicated a real chicken sandwich. And the flavors of the hot sauce and slaw were perfect together. I also got the hibiscus drink (forgot to take a pic) and that was also super good and not too sugary which I liked. There's also plenty of space to sit outside if you're looking to relax while eating. Over all I'd 100% go again and probably try a burger next time!

Tried this the other day after a visit at the museums across the street, and was pleansantly surprised at how good it was! Everything is plant-based. We tried the burger and the spicy chick'n sandwich. The Frots (fries/tots combo) was really good. The kale salad was a nice option but a little too much sauce on it for me. The fountain drink choices are amazing. So much better than the typical Pepsi/Coke selections. They used Tractor. I love their Lemongrass. They also have tea, lemonade, berry, and hibiscus drinks. We sat outside by the fountain and enjoyed the nice day with the good meal. I want to come back to try more of their items. The place was clean and the service stellar!

We were gifted free entree vouchers from Yelp, but this is our honest opinion. It was fairly easy to find street parking, and there's a nice back entrance through the garage that leads to the beautiful little courtyard. The cashier was friendly and we ordered the Chik'n Nuggets and Sandwich. The Sandwich was definitely better as the bread and mayo as well as flatter patty helped balance it out and give it more flavor, though it definitely needed another sauce-- used the Hunny Mustard and Hart Signature Sauce on it (kinda Thousand Island-y)? and that helped. The nuggets had more "chicken" texture than most fast food nuggets, but overall the "chicken" flavor was lacking and neither really tasted like chicken or were that flavorful. It wasn't bad by any means, but I wouldn't come to Hart House again personally.

August 2023/Downtown LA: While at a grand opening across from USC last night, the food lines were incredibly long! One of my friends suggested Hart House (Vegan) to everyone & I was all about it, as I've eaten at another location and enjoyed it! Plus, it was right across the street! Score! Deluxe Hot & Crispy Chick'n: Whoa! Definitely, my favorite item on the menu now! It was my first time trying the Deluxe and the flavor was everything and more! The kale slaw, the flavor of the patty, as well as the Sweet Heat added sauce(.50 more!), blew my mind! Loved every single bite and didn't want it to end! Haha! Pure delicious spiciness! Mixed French Fries w/Tator Tots/Shared: Perfect combo & a great chance to taste both! Yum! Cherry Cream Drink: After doing a quick taste testing of the different flavors, this one, won my heart, it's absolutely delicious, and a clear winner! I highly recommend! Overall: Hart House absolutely hit the spot, was good with every single bite & a great location, loved it, and looking forward to going again soon!! Plus, the mix of great music playing out on the patio, cozy seating and dining by the water fountain made the experience even more enjoyable!

Hart House is 100% vegan. The parking was somewhat easy for L.A. there's a free parking garage attached to the building. You have to swipe your cc card and when you leave have that same card. There's NO charge. The outdoor area was great. There's a beautiful fountain and corn hole. One of my kiddos threw his shoes in the fountain when I was ordering our food and the man that was taking our order said he would help me get out what I needed from the fountain. He saw I was struggling and by myself with 2 rascals lol. Our food great! My favs were the double burger & hibiscus drink. The sauces were unique & yummy too. I liked that the crispy chick'n had kale on it. Hart House would do well in Ventura County. I hope one opens up closer to me. :)

Driving down Figueroa you would miss it if you weren't looking. The distinct green of Hart House was like a beacon. I had to quickly find parking which was a feat that in of itself. There's student housing all around. I came with my partner and we made our meal decisions quickly. The person taking our order was informative and courteous with much needed suggestions. We ordered the Doubl Burgr and the Crispy Chik'n with a mixed Large fry/tater tots. The hibiscus summer tea was so delicious. Black tea and lemonade are also available. We went outside to be seated, there were games available in the courtyard: Jumbo Jenga, Bean Bag Toss, etc. They had a homey-feel intertwined to the very bones of this place. We tore into the meal with haste. The double burger was sooooo incredulously juicy! Like a real burger. My partner saw me enjoying mine after one bite and requested that we try each other's then proceeded to consume half of the sandwich. Their chick'n sandwich was less eventful kind of on the drier side but definitely a similar texture to chicken. All in all a nutritious and filling meal. No heaviness or grogginess after eating it which is a +. Eat here you won't regret it!

Food- Not a vegan yet I would definitely return. This food is above other vegan places I had. Service- Is decent and appreciated that they walked our food out to us. Ambiance- Relaxing a bit under an umbrella enjoying the breeze, food and loving the fountain. Shout out to meeting fellow YELPERS!!!!

I was invited to a private VIP Taste Testing experience at Hart House USC, which is the newest location (4th to be exact) of Comedian Kevin Hart's 100% Plant-Based Fast-Food eatery. This occured on Tuesday 6/20/2023 before their official grand opening the next day on Wednesday 6/21/2023. If you are unfamiliar with this up-and-coming place, they promise a menu that contains NO Cholesterol, NO Antibiotics, NO Hormones, NO Artificial Colors, NO Preservatives, NO Corn Syrup, and NO Trans Fats. The restaurant is in a 1,310 sqft space with a few interior seats and a standing bar. The highlight of this location is the 2,300 sqft outdoor seating area with patio seating and a fountain. -I think the only downside of this location is that if it rains or other bad weather, one would have a hard time eating in and would have to do takeaway. I think they will do best for takeaway overall My father joined me at this tasting and we got:   Drinks- *Shakes (Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, and Oreo) -They had samples of each and the Oreo was definitely my favorite! *Organic Sodas from Tractor Beverage Co. (Cherry Cream, Root Beer, Kola, Kola Lite, and Lemongrass) *Organic Juices from Tractor Beverage Co. (Berry Patch, Limeade, Iced Tea, Water, and Seasonal Flavors) -I tried a few of each soda and juice. Mixed things together for more flavors and exploration. I am all for "healthier" beverages!   Sides- *Frots (Fries and Tots Mixed) -Enjoyed getting to try a little of both and dipped them into the "Hunny" Mustard Entree- *Smokey BBQ Burg'r (Signature Double Plant-Based Patty, American "Cheese," Pickles, Crispy Onion Strings, with Smokey BBQ Sauce and Plant-Based Mayo) -This was a seasonal item for Summer, so not normally on the menu. Very glad I got it and made some modifications. I substituted the Plant-Based Mayo for "Hunny" Mustard, removed the cheese, and added the Kale Crunch Slaw. -My father got this burger the normal way and said he could not even tell it was plant-based Service/Ambiance- -After having waited in line outside for about 20 or so minutes, we made it inside and we were able to order pretty quickly. I was happy that my cashier read back my order to make sure it was good to go.   Overall, no matter if you are Vegan or not, this place is a must try! Also, if you are interested in the Allergen and Nutritional Guide, you can view it here: https://www.myharthouse.com/s/H_House_NutritionGuide-WorkinV101.pdf *Tip-If you want longer than 45 min of free parking in the attached garage, which is also part of an apartment complex above the eatery, I suggest taking the Metro or using a ride-share service.

Alright, alright, alright, you gon' learn today! This is most def some of the best vegan fast food out here. Leave it to a non-vegan to make tasty vegan food. I'm here for it. The nuggets were perfectly crisp outside, while juicy inside, and the flavor was on point. Same thing with the fries; crispy and perfectly salted. I am for sure coming back for the chicken sando! The burger was tasty, but definitely could have used another patty; it was too thin, and the patty-to-bun ratio was off. I'd recommend the double patty if you're going for the burger. The fresh lemonade was also really good. I had a sip of all the other fresh juices they offered, and wasn't really a fan. The lemonade is definitely my jam. On the other hand, the sauces didn't really appeal to me. I got the house sauce and creamy buffalo; the house sauce was the better of the two. The food came out pretty quick and the staff was great. The one bad thing about the space is that it's all outdoor seating (and I went on a upper 90s day). The outdoor area is really nice, though, and there's a fire pit, which will be perfect for the cool winter days.

Just went to Hart House's pre-opening event near USC and loved it!! Shoutout to Christine for the invite :)) Everything is very affordable and tastes delicious despite being plant based. What I loved the most was the kale slaw in the chicken sando. It definitely made everything in the sandwich come together. I also really liked the tater tots and various sodas and juices they had to offer. Highly recommend hart house as it will not disappoint!

When you find out Kevin Hart opened a vegan burger joint, you have to try it! I ordered the double double cheeseburger and the chicken sandwich (non spicy). The burger meat wasn't very good, but the chicken was pretty good and I would order it again! The fries were good too and I really enjoyed the special sauce they had, it reminds me of thousand island dressing. They had a large selection of teas including their special house tea and a hibiscus tea that was really good! I would definitely come back here again! Free parking on the street on Sundays.

Hart House is a fully plant-based and their beverages are fully organic. I got the Double Burg'r, a side of Crispy Tots, and soda drink (of which I drank the Cherry Cream Soda). In terms of the sandwich, it was pretty solid. There are plant-based restaurants that want to make you believe you're eating real meat and will try to replicate that flavor and there's restaurants that kind of embrace its meat-alternative flavor. I believe Hart House is the latter. The sandwich came with the signature sauce, lettuce, tomato, cheese, and grilled onions. Together, in one bite, it was pretty good. If I ate it separately, the flavors got a little funky. The cheese had a slightly odd flavor on its own. The grilled onions were delicious, though. For the side, I got the tots and think this was amazing. Perfectly crunchy, perfectly made. The side portion was also quite large in my opinion. Sauces are .50 cents each cup, with ketchup being free. I got the soda for the drink and tried a few of the flavors. It's obviously trying to be an organic version of Coca-Cola. The flavors are very similar to probiotic sodas such as Poppi. I tried the Kola Cola and Kola Cola Lite and to be very honest, the flavor was reminiscent of drinking straight gasoline. The Cherry Cream Soda flavor was good, however, though it did leave a crazy aftertaste in my mouth. The employees here are very kind and attentive. The only seating area is outside and your meal is brought to you. Overall, very peaceful and nice. In terms of price, I will say it is somewhat expensive. My total meal price was $17. I think the mission of the restaurant is really commendable and I know meat-alternative and organic is not cheap, but the price is ultimately something you need to consider.

I've had the deluxe hot chicken sandwich, the burger; the tots and the frots (1/2 fries and 1/2 tots) all really good! Tried their mint shake while it was available and added chocolate too it, fire! Tried the lighter version of their kola, not exactly my favorite but I'm also not much of a soda person, so it might serve the purpose for those wanting a soda replacement. Overall great fast food vegan option.

We came to the opening and it was fun. Now we are coming back all the time! My daughter says if there was only one thing she could eat for the rest of her life it would be Hart House!

The Nashville nuggets and strawberry shake were delicious! Definitely stop by when you're in the area, it's conveniently located right across from USC and service was quick and friendly.

I finally tried hart house. Honestly, I'm not a big fan of the food. I've been vegan for roughly 4-5 years. Prior to that I was vegetarian for over 10 years. The food was just ok in my opinion. I'm really big on what I put in my body. I'm always wanting to know what are the ingredients in whatever I eat. I noticed when I ordered a single burger and tots the wrapper and container were covered in oil/grease. That was not appealing to me. All I could imagine was "this grease is going in my body". The burger had a very weird taste. It wasn't beyond or impossible Patties. The website mentioned that they make their own Patties. I try to stay away from beyond or impossible products so I thought this would be a better option since they make their Pattie's in house. The taste was indescribable. Overall, I might try to give it another try but I highly doubt it. Hopefully they list what they make their Pattie's with and reduce the amount of oil/grease that they use.

Great burgers! I couldn't tell the difference. Staff was also very nice as well give this spot a try if you are feeling adventurous

Just across the way from Exposition Park you'll find this sweet vegan gem of a burger joint. I first heard about it on a podcast Kevin Hart...yes, the comedian and actor.... discussed expanding his reach as a restauranteur to offer more vegan food to the masses. And it was delicious! We ordered... Deluxe spicy chicken burger combo... 5 stars. Came with a fountain drink and side of half tater tots and fries. We paid extra to upgrade to an Oreo milkshake. Deluxe chicken burger... 5 stars. Same crispy, not spicy version. Yum! Deluxe burger...4.5 stars... Least favorite but still devoured by the family. All the deluxe come with a veggie slaw. Setting...5 stars. I was mistaken in thinking the place was a take out. The inside is clean and small. But then I noticed workers walking out to a patio that is really nice. Great seats, a water fountain, tables with umbrellas. Loved it. We'll definitely return!

*Based on Postmates delivery* Maybe delivery isn't the way to go with Hart House, but they had a deal on Postmates so I decided to give it a try. I got the deluxe hot chicken sandwich and as soon as I unwrapped it my hands were covered in grease. The bun itself was literally glistening. First bite and I knew it wasn't for me. It wasn't terribly spicy, but I felt like I had a mouth full of oil. I stopped eating it about halfway in because I didn't want to completely upset my stomach. The fries were average and the Oreo shake was delicious. I'll give it another try, but I'll definitely be dining in and opt for a burger.

I came here around mid-day with a friend to try out the burgers. Parking was a bit tough. There is metered street parking and structure lot parking. The ambiance is really nice. The outdoor eating area is really nice - there is a water fountain and corn hole. The employees are nice and have good vibes. I ordered the hot n spicy crispy chick'n. I really wanted to love it. The alt meat patty itself is juicy, but the 'lettuce' is literally like one of those kale salad bags you get at the grocery store. I didn't understand the point of the kale salad on top. The fries were good, and the sauces were okay. Overall it was okay, the burgers could use some revamping. I'd come again to try a different food item in the future.

Interesting spot... vegan with bright color! Friendly service for real!! Great soda options and tea lemonade's!! The smell coming in the restaurant smelled greasy it also turned skeptical... So I decided to get the nuggets that were just ok.. it was basically the beyond meat nuggets in the pack from the grocery store. I'm giving the 5 stars for the very friendly service.. but I'm not sure about the food.. I may need to try the burger to see if that was good.

So sad they are closed. My Wednesday lunch meeting there (apparently a day after they shuttered) was postponed. I wanted to go today and then heard the news. The world takes everything I love.

By far this has been the best vegan/plant-based food! Coming from someone who eats meat, I would not mind eating this plant-based chicken sandwich over a real chicken sandwich. I got the Deluxe Hot N Crispy Chick'N which was full of so much flavor. The only thing I would of liked is if they would bring the spice up a notch. They also have FROTS! Which is part of their secret menu and it's a mix of tater tots and French fries which is genius for those of us who are indecisive. The sodas/drinks are organic and very good/refreshing. The service here is excellent. We came here for an pre grand opening event and everyone that was part of the staff was so friendly and helpful. They gave us recommendations and were very open to feedback. The location is near USC, decor is very nice and artsy. They also have a nice outdoor patio for people to enjoy their food. I can't say enough good things about Hart House. The food actually looks like the pictures and I love how they are working to bring good food, that is not only good for you but good for the environment as well. Definitely a must try!

I wound up having to go twice in a week. Let me explain. Upon going the first time, I loved the location and ambiance. 70's music, nice signage and in a great location. Loved the outdoor patio and the customer service. I ordered the chicken sandwich, first and Oreo shake. I wasn't impressed with the chicken but forced myself to eat half. I got full off the fire and shake. The shake was amazing but small. Great vibes and atmosphere on a l strip of restaurants. I wanted to give it another chance before I wrote a review and got a burger, fries and tots and an organic cream drink. Everything was good so I would definitely come back. Smart having great music . Went to the bathroom which was nicely painted and clean. Mind you I'm not a vegan but taste is subjective. Price wasn't bad for a celebrity spot.

What an absolutely great location! The outdoor dining area is so nice with the fountain and view of campus. Vegans and Carnivores can equally enjoy the culinary offerings. We had the burger and chix sandwiches. We both liked them but the burger was better in my opinion. We also had a side of "Frots", fries and tater tots and a small chocolate shake, so entree, dessert and and either appy or side dish. When it's triple digits it would be great if there was more shade and misters outside, Palm Springs style. Evening in the patio area is probably really nice. My only pause to go hmmmm, is I could not find a list of ingredients posted in the restaurant or on line. (WTF did we eat? It was good... but what was it)

The food is enjoyable for fast food - we've visited several locations and like it. Especially the deluxe chicken sandwich, that kale slaw is just a notch above what you'd expect from fast food. The setting here is what makes it great. All outdoor seating with cushiony lounge chairs arranged around a big fountain and a fire pit. Several sets of big outdoor Jenga and cornhole. The yard games and comfy, casual seating make for a great, relaxed meal and hang - especially for families with kids in tow.

I came here after seeing his cars at the LA Car Show & trying is liquor (it was strong & good) anyways the price for the combo is about $15 bucks, it hurts me the most hamburger places have some pricey combos. On the bright side this place is plant based and organic options so it's worth to pay compared to other places. The service we received was great, cashier I'm assuming was the manager had great customer service, he even switched out a shake no one in our group liked. They have a very pretty and chill set up out front, great to hang with friends. I was a little confused when throwing the trash away since the signs confused me. Other than that Hart House hit the spot with my starvation of walking around convention center.

As someone who has dietary restrictions in orders from here, this is the worst store ever to order from. I love Jersey Mike's, but I will never order from this place again. They have delivered me the wrong order. They will not resend an orde. The Manager is completely incompetent. Do not order from them or Grubhub on their app ever! Worst service Ever!!

A fun spin on vegan food. My girls loved the "chicken". I preferred the spicy sandwich The fresh made drinks were fun to try and the soda machine option was a fave. Only downside is there is only outside seating and it was super windy-- wish there was more protected from the elements seating. The service was fine, nothing special.

Friendly greeting right when I walked in. The place is immaculately clean. Fantastic 90's rap playing. The best service hands down. We got the classic burger, tots, fries, chikn nuggets, cookies n cream milkshake. Everything was so delicious, fresh and great value. The burgers are the best vegan burgers I've had in a long time. Fries and tots were crispy and seasoned perfectly. I can't wait to go back. 10/10

Was in the area and saw the reviews were good for this place and let me tell you it's amazingly good. I didn't realize it was all plant based menu, and you wouldn't know it from how the burgers tasted. I've have plant based burgers before, and you could always tell. Not this place. Hands down one of the best burgers I've ever had. If they could figure out plant based bacon, that would be the chefs kiss on these things. The fires were extremely good also. Highly recommend it. And the service was spectacular. I might have to drive to USC more often.

My family had an amazing time at the Hart restaurant. There were games in the outdoor patio. We had the chance to eat in front of the fountain. The food is delicious. I have to convince my family to eat vegan food and they were 100% enjoying the food. The fountain drinks are delicious. They have their own flavored caffeinated drinks and teas. The staff are professional and polite. We really enjoyed the family oriented activities and ambiance. It's nice
