Best vegan food in the valley, all the staff are extremely welcoming, and the place is clean and beautiful. We had the bagel sandwich with beyond, and the scramble which were both amazing. The whoopie pie was recommended, with good reason- top tier dessert. Also grabbed a “Space Bar” candy, and it was very very sweet so keep that in mind when you get one. I actually wanted really sweet so it was perfect for me. Also coffee- can’t forget this. Stopped by a lot of coffee shops and this place actually knows how to pull good shots and steam milk. Very consistent and smooth lattes. 10/10.

This place is incredible for vegan options. It’s pricey but what vegan place isn’t? They have such yummy treats that are some how still healthy. Incredible smoothies, yummy dishes (the omelette is incredible) coffee isn’t bad but I personally miss my latte with regular milk which is the only downfall! Either way, I love this place!

My first thought was love at first sight, first smell, and first bite! I got takeout and its my first time trying this place, and someone would’ve had to hold me back if I was dining in because I was imPRESSED!! The spices, big flavor, texture, everything was just on point. I got the Joi scramble and side of black bean sausage, literally chefs kiss. I eat meat occasionally but the black bean sausage was just soooo good. The tortilla had hints of floral/herb flavor which tells me it must be made from scratch with Hella love. I just wanted a bite in the car and ended up eating it the entire ride home in my lap Had to write this review as soon as my car stopped — I honestly just picked up less than an hour ago. This place is a great gem to stumble upon, WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!!

The food was fresh, delicately flavorful (the flavors worked so well together) and beautifully presented. The service was next level fast, friendly and welcoming. It was during a busy lunch time, yet the tables still allowed for comfort and it wasn’t loud.

Fully vegan Cafe with many healthy and gluten free options. They offer delicious drinks and pastries, as well as savory breakfast and lunch options. We enjoyed the pancakes and the breakfast burrito, and some lattes. Really flavorful and filling. Would totally reccomend!!!

Joi Cafe in Westlake Village offered a vibrant atmosphere for a Sunday morning coffee, but the drinks themselves fell short.
The first thing that struck me was the energy of the place. They had both indoor and outdoor seating, and we opted for the bright, modern interior. The space was well-lit and wasn’t as loud, making it perfect for catching up on things.
The menu offered a variety of healthy options, from smoothies and salads to breakfast items, snacks, and even some toasts. We decided to grab something quick to go, so we placed our order at the counter. The process was efficient. They give you a number to place on our table if you are dining in. Since we were taking our food to go, it was a quick wait, and the service itself was very fast.
Now, for the drinks themselves. I opted for the iced chai, hoping for a refreshing and flavorful pick-me-up. Unfortunately, it had a peculiar aftertaste, almost grassy, which wasn’t quite what I was expecting from a chai. My friend got one of the smoothies, either the “Powerhouse” or the “Machine” (the name escapes me now), but his experience wasn’t much better. The smoothie had an unpleasantly strong aftertaste as well, and the texture was quite grainy.
One positive aspect of Joi Cafe was the location. Situated in a strip mall, there was plenty of free parking available, which is always a plus. It was clear why the place was bustling on a Sunday morning – the convenience, healthy options, and relaxing atmosphere were attractive. However, their drinks need some attention.

Really delicious food. The servers were friendly and helpful, the restaurant was clean and there was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating for this busy establishment. The salads were surprisingly my favorite: well dressed and very fresh produce. I look forward to my next trip to Thousand Oaks so I can come here again.

Joi cafe is our FAVORITE place to eat healthy and nourishing vegan food (and I’m not even vegan, YET!) and drink delicious exquisite beverages and enjoy this unique and magical cozy high vibe community. So excited by the dining experience here many of us from Malibu make the fun and devoted pilgrimage over the hill to this oasis and Mecca of truly GOOD VIBES ONLY simply because the experience here is amazing and truly worth it. Finding a peaceful, soothing and still social, happy and lively hub of wonderful souls and guaranteed nurturing energy is a gift in this face paced world. Remember discovering this real magic place of culinary and visual delights when it first opened over eight years ago and I’m a dedicated follower…and I don’t follow anything or anyone usually and this is my first time in my life I’ve ever written a review. The BEST!!!!! All the stars and beyond for this great cafe. Thank you for creating a welcome inclusive atmosphere of love and conscious eating pleasure. Own your magic. Warmth. BRB.
