I had dinner at Gracias Madre this weekend in Weho.  It's such a fun and lively spot on the weekend!  It also has a very beautiful outdoor patio for al fresco dining.  When I used to be a vegetarian, this was one of my favorite spots.  Even though I eat meat now, I love my veggies and I still enjoy going to vegetarian restaurants that offer creative twists on traditionally meat-based meals.
