The Butcher's Daughter

"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

"There are plenty of vegetarian options at the Butcher’s Daughter, plus some vegan and gluten-free choices too. Rather than focusing on substances that mock meat, dishes here celebrate seasonal produce in all its glory. But those looking for Impossible options will still find the meat sub on the menu too." - Virali_Dave, Eater Staff

"Magic Mushroom Supplement, $38 So, we weren’t allowed to recommend the kind of mushrooms your friend really wants, but this herbal supplement from Butcher’s Daughter isn’t such a bad second choice.- Grown in Washington, this plant-based superfood contains both fruiting body and mycelium (they’ll know what this means) and is known for boosting life expectancy, immunity, mood, mental clarity, and much more." - kat hong
