Pura Vita West Hollywood, opened in 2018, is the first 100% Plant-Based Italian Restaurant and Wine Bar in the USA! At Pura Vita we have created a unique dining experience that has the ambiance of a New York City wine bar with a traditional menu reflecting the best of Southern Italy. We pride ourselves on using the best organic, sustainable, clean, plant-based ingredients. Additionally, we have many organic gluten-free options so that all guests can enjoy our dishes. Pura Vita Pizzeria was opened 2 years later, right next door to Pura Vita. The Pizzeria offers 100% Plant-Based scratch-made Neapolitan style pizzas. Pura Vita and the Pizzeria are now operated as one business, side by side, in West Hollywood. Pura Vita welcomes everyone to come and enjoy our incredible plant-based Italian dishes, biodynamic wines and pleasurable ambiance.
“I had the opportunity to finally eat at Pura Vita while in LA a few months ago. The atmosphere was amazing and the food was to die for. No seriously, it you like Italian food even if you're not Vegan, Pura Vita will not disappoint. Every dish we tried was so on point and presented with perfection!”
“Here are a few photos of the amazing food they serve. This place has the most thought, love and intention crafted into the food they make. We finally met the owner Tara, and what an honor it was. Our waitress Edith was exceptional. I really like how she opened the wine and added so much quality to our recent experience. Thank you Tara and Pura vita family! ✌🏻”
“One of the best meals I've ever had. The kale caesar was SO delicious and perfectly dressed. The pasta was SO creamy and had the perfect amount of crunch from the bread crumbs. The garlic knots were amazing as well, 10/10 experience – you'd never know these dishes are fully vegan! It's a bit pricey, but considering the large portions, you'll have leftovers for days!”
“Finally made it to Pura Vita after wanting to try it for some time, and it didn't disappoint! The ricotta and toast appetizer was amazing. Great bread with a nice char. Had the Penne Arrabiata and added the "meatballs" as recommended by my server. The pasta was delicious. I would probably skip the meatballs next time though. Definitely will plan to come back!”
“Pura Vita has been one of my favorite vegan spots in Los Angeles since I first moved here. What started as a simple self-care dinner became a tradition — the kind of place that turns a meal into a memory. Every dish feels intentional, rich in flavor, and made with love. The energy inside is warm and inviting, and the staff always make you feel like family. Chef Tara Punzone pours her heart into every creation, keeping the vegan community alive and connected. If you’re in West Hollywood, Pura Vita is a must-visit for an unforgettable dining experience.”
