In the same way that seed provides the beginnings for a vibrant planet, the food we eat provides the beginnings for a vibrant, flourishing life.
Insider Insights: This spot is just about a 
3-5 min walk from the beach. They offer dynamite organic, vegan, macrobiotic food. And to make your day that much more incredible it’s all served up by a friendly & attentive staff. When I went in the cashier who took my order & the person who brought my food to the table was actually the owner & chef himself, Eric Lechasseur- now that’s not something you see everyday. He was very pleasant & even took the time to engage in a genuine conversation with me as he wandered the restaurant cleaning off tables. It’s very clean & cozy (seats about 20 people), and there’s even a small outdoor patio (seats about 8) to enjoy a bit of people watching downtown Venice on a sunny day. When I went it was a chilly day near the beach so I was craving a dish that would be warming. I went with Thai coconut red curry (Brown rice served with broccoli, zucchini, potato, snow peas, & carrots in a spicy coconut-curry sauce). The coconut-curry sauce itself wasn’t as thick as I was expecting, but overall the dish was delicious, fresh, & filling. From my experience I can definitely tell they are living up to their mission of supporting those who seek a vibrant, flourishing life. If you decide to indulge here it’s good to know that it is a bit more on the pricier side & they don’t have restrooms. Whether you consistently adhere to Macrobiotic diet suggestions or are simply looking to expand your horizons, I highly suggest Seed’s organic, vegan, & marco menu.
