After months of anticipation and delays, Lassens Natural Foods Market and Vitamins recently debuted its long-awaited store at Wilshire/La Brea. Located on the ground floor of the Essex Apartments structure, the market covers a generous 12,000-square-feet and features all of the 100% organic, non-GMO groceries that fans like Natalie Portman and Eva Mendes have grown to love from the Erewhon competitor.

Neighborhood blog Larchmont Buzz has photos inside the Miracle Mile space, showcasing Lassens's huge prepared-foods deli, bakery, bulk foods selection, and colorful produce. The grocer is hosting grand opening festivities all next week, if you want to see the new addition for yourself.

Lassens La Brea is open Monday through Saturday from 7am to 10pm. Closed Sunday.
