Which healthy restaurants won't eat up my budget?

"I've been a vegetarian for years, and I like to eat anywhere vegan with reasonable prices. Check out ISO Fusion Cafe in Westwood. I love the yakisoba tofu bowl. For under $10, you get a big yummy bowl of yakisoba noodles (or brown rice) with veggies and tofu and a delicious sauce and it comes with a bowl of miso soup.  Ask Serena to make you a taro milk tea with boba for dessert. One of my favorite splurges, and it’s non dairy.

Another great deal is San Sai Japanese Grill. I typically stay away from fast foods and chains but this is an exception. They have several locations around LA. Every day they have three salads that are always fresh & yummy. I get the three-salad combo, which is a generous portion for around $6.

Gr/eats is on Sawtelle and is another one that flies under the radar. Don’t let the hole-in-the-wall appearance deter you, this place serves some great vegetarian items for under $10. I love the Tofu Ball Salad."
