"The Butcher’s Daughter might have originated in New York, but it’s found its spiritual home on Abbot Kinney. From juices and “wellness lattes” to cauliflower grits and an entire section of the menu devoted to avocado toast, everything about it is a California cliché. Sometimes the dairy-replacement can mean dishes get a bit heavy, but in a world of terrible, tasteless, healthy food, The Butcher’s Daughter is a welcome oasis. RESERVE A TABLE WITH RESERVE A TABLE" - Jess Basser Sanders
"Between the wellness lattes, avocado toasts, and abundance of succulents, Butcher’s Daughter may be the quintessential Abbot Kinney spot, but in a Shyamalan-esque twist, their menu is way more than just Instagram fodder. Everything from the cashew ricotta-stuffed ravioli to the basil BLT with adzuki bacon is full of flavor and tastes remarkably... not like cardboard. Available for takeout and delivery." - kat hong
"The Butcher’s Daughter might be from NYC, but it leans into every Venice cliché. There are wellness lattes, regulars who can’t shut up about their gut microbiome, and enough indoor plants for the space to qualify as a greenhouse. But even with all of these annoying elements, the restaurant manages to serve great vegetarian American food like mushroom calamari, egg sandwiches punched up by harissa mayo, and a surprisingly interesting avocado toast topped with mustard seed and turmeric-pickled shallots." - brant cox, sylvio martins
"This health food place started in New York, but it’s right at home on Abbot Kinney. The Butcher’s Daughter (we assume she’s a rebellious one) serves juices, wellness lattes, and healthy versions of comfort food. Altogether, it reads like a parody of Venice. But the food here is actually pretty good, and also ostensibly good for you." - jess basser sanders, amy clark
"The Venice outpost of The Butcher’s Daughter is just a ten-minute walk from the bustling boardwalk. It’s the ideal destination to return to and enjoy some light and nourishing plant-based fare. As for the drinks, the cafe is known for their juices, but don’t overlook the cocktail menu, especially mixologist Aaron Bickes’s creation, The Smoky Pineapple. Made with The Lost Explorer Espadín, pineapple and lime juice, aloe liqueur, coca leaf liqueur, habanero tincture, muddled with basil and cucumber, this drink is the perfect addition to a day venturing down the boardwalk." - Robert Spuhler
