La Chia Vegana

This restaurant moved to a new location in Lake Worth Beach in Dec. 2023, so I would suggest reading reviews after that time for a more accurate depiction. We are so excited to find this cute place and the owner is very nice - Puerto Rican by way of NY - which is why the menu has a latin flair. It's a very small vegan restaurant with two large tables and 4 bar-top seats along the front window. The food is delicious, but it can take a long time to get your order. My husband adores their buffalo mac 'n cheese! It's pretty spicy so if spice is not your thing, you could order it without the buffalo. I love the arepas and the acai bowls. The nachos are so good too. LOCALS TIP: You have to try the empanadas! They are not on the online menu because of limited supply. You have to buy them at the restaurant. Yum yum!! PARKING: There is no parking. The first time we were on our bikes and the 2nd time I was picking up, I parked illegally. (yikes!) It would be great if there was parking off the alley and a bike rack out front. I would suggest parking along the street In the neighborhood behind the restaurant or on the other side of Dixie on the street and walk across. It’s worth it! 😊 UPDATE: We ordered a lasagna, gluten-free and vegan for our Christmas dinner with our family and it was absolutely amazing! 😻

So many gluten free options and such a great vibe. The owner is so sweet and we had the vegan nachos. Can’t wait to go back for more! Street parking was easy and they even have a kids area for them to play.
