Great hospitality! Hugh selection of vegan options. Overall a GREAT place to dine, very friendly staff and welcoming environment. Quality of service and food is superb. I always place a to go order when I’m dining in. Large portions for takeout, in which I normally eat for dinner. The food is so fresh no matter if you are dining in or order takeout. 10/10 in my Keith Lee voice.

Excellent lunch spot! Cool vibes, really good food. Even great music playing! Food is high restaurant quality w/o the pricey costs. Mango Salmon salad was spot on!

This place was awesome! Excellent vegan menu options! I loved the fresh quality and homemade sauces. The flavors after a much adored taste. The staff were so kind, and we even got to meet the master minds behind these wonderfully succulent recipes! Yes! The food here is great for vegans and non-vegans. I wish they were open for longer hours, but I'll catch them when I can and visit often! This place reminded me of a restaurant in Philly as far as atmosphere and quality! I loved that!

This place has really nice food. A good variety of options. The mango salmon salad is fresh, light, and flavorful. I highly recommend it!

Yes! This is a must stop when in the area. The food is fresh, full of flavor, and unique. They tie in just the right amount of ingredients to make savory dishes. We enjoyed their burger and grilled cheese with jam. We also had their sweet potato fries and the pumpkin cake dessert. The burger had grilled onions with their house made sauce. The burger was cooked perfect and on a brioche bun. The grilled cheese and jam was one of the best meals I have had. They have many more options I look forward to trying. The place is very clean. It is not a huge venue but plenty of seating options. The staff was phenomenal and took the time to make great recommendations.

This place has great healthy options for affordable prices, which has been hard to find in this area IMO. The mango salmon salad was great and had a nice citrus kick to it with the mango and the dressing. I highly recommend trying this place out if you haven’t yet!
