Valley Vegan Eatery Madeleine's Bistro Announces Closure

One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

Vegan blogger Quarrygirl calls Tarzana's Madeleine Bistro her "favorite vegan restaurant in all the land," and we've loved their lively brunches (and our last Editor hailed it as one of his 7 favorite veggie restaurants in L.A), and now we've learned the restaurant will close down in early May.

Our last day of regular business as Madeleine Bistro in Tarzana will be Mother's Day -- Sunday May 8th -- so if you need a fix please visit soon. Beginning Monday May 9th we will be offering extended home delivery services (bistro box plus some new services as well) and will continue our catering and some exciting special events too (cooking classes, tasting menu nights & more) so stay tuned for those details... Thank you all for your support over the last six years and we look forward to continue serving you in the future.

Best hurry and get your reservations in for your "facon" omelette, vegan mac and cheese, "chicken" and waffles, and their take on a McDonald's burger before it's too late.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.

You come to LAist because you want independent reporting and trustworthy local information. Our nonprofit newsroom doesn’t answer to shareholders looking to turn a profit. Instead, we answer to you and our communities. We are free to follow facts wherever they lead and to hold power to account without fear or favor. Our only loyalty is to our readers and listeners and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen Southern California’s communities.
