Shifting from its fast-casual roots, Love Life Cafe will now offer a full-service model, promising its patrons a unique and elevated dining experience. The popular eatery in the heart of Wynwood is dedicated to providing innovative plant-based cuisine and hopes to set a new standard for vegan dining. It has been a part of the Wynwood community for almost a decade and is excited to continue serving the area in its latest form.
“After opening our new location, we have been feeling our guests craving for a more personal service model, which is why we know table service will bring in a much more pleasant experience for them,” says Veronica Menin, Co-Founder of Love Life Cafe. “It will also allow us to properly introduce and describe the concept and menu to new guests, which is particularly important in the plant-based world where some people may be hesitant or lack familiarity with the offerings. People also love to host their celebrations with us, so it just makes sense to become a full-service restaurant. We are excited for the opportunity to grow and change.”
Since its establishment, Love Life Cafe has been committed to providing tasty and nutritious meals made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients in an eco-friendly and community-oriented restaurant. Diego Tosoni and Veronica Menin, the husband-and-wife team who own Love Life Cafe, have always viewed their establishment as more than just a dining establishment—a center for health, joy, and culinary advancement. Their desire to continuously innovate and respond to the market has prompted the upcoming changes while maintaining the restaurant’s core values.
Starting Monday, May 6, the restaurant will introduce a full-service model that will change the dining experience for lunch and dinner. Lunch will be available from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and then replaced by the dinner menu until closing. Along with the new service model, the restaurant will introduce several new menu items, live music, bar offerings, and future promotions. The juice bar, where customers can purchase juices, coffee, and select pastries, will remain a counter service model and open at 9 a.m.
The restaurant will then transform into a dinner-time culinary destination by introducing new, entree-style items. Among the noteworthy additions are the Filet Mignon—a plant-based version served with oven-roasted mashed potatoes and chimichurri, Wild Mushroom Truffle Ravioli made with local whole wheat pasta on a garlic cream sauce, Beef Lasagna made with gluten-free pasta layered with beef ragu, and béchamel sauce. Other new items include oyster mushroom, spicy tofu with Japanese sweet potato in an herb aioli, and whole-roasted cauliflower in whipped tofu-feta sauce. Love Life Cafe’s popular sushi offerings from its Shido concept will now be exclusive to dinner. The restaurant will have live music during dinner from Tuesday through Saturday, creating an elevated ambiance as vibrant as the surrounding neighborhood.
At the bar, guests can enjoy an elevated selection of new mocktails featuring Ritual spirits and new cocktails and wines that perfectly complement the plant-based restaurant’s food. Some mocktail highlights include zero-proof takes on classic favorites like the whiskey sour, margarita, and espresso martini. Love Life Cafe’s Happy Hour will continue to be offered from Monday through Thursday, offering guests a 50% discount on all drinks from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Love Life Cafe is located at 545 NW 26th St. in Wynwood. The restaurant is open daily from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. For more information, visit www.lovelifecafe.com or follow on social @lovelife.cafe.
