It’s awesome. Laid back n friendly. Great food and safe and fun atmosphere. Love the options of indoor or outside patio setting
I really wanted to love this place. We stopped in for breakfast and were pretty excited about the menu. It is very eclectic and has a fun vibe. The staff member that took our order at the counter was friendly. They have a self serve coffee station and non-dairy milk options. My husband had the tofu "scramble" which was really cubed tofu, but the flavor was good. I ordered the buttermilk pancake, which came completely raw in the middle. This happens sometimes. My poor review is because of how they handled it. I returned the raw pancake to the counter and asked for a fully cooked one. When I say it was raw, I mean there was about 3" of raw batter in the middle. The friendly staff member apologized and immediately took it to the pass. I waited 20 minutes for a new pancake. I went from "no big deal" to worried they forgot me to wow, I am not having a good time here. :P I did finally get my pancake and it was good (and fully cooked). However, I won't return. Mistakes happen, but how you make it right matters.
Kind, clean, fast and food is very good!

Hip environment and it’s obviously a popular joint. Servers and staff were very friendly. But the food was not nearly as good as I would have expected.

Excellent and healthy food choices. The only issue is parking. There’s not much of it.

This place has the best gluten free burgers. The service was fast and easy. The patio is awesome with misters, fans, a play area for kids. Central location in Little Rock if you want to walk around. They have locally baked gluten free buns and beer. All in all, it's perfect.

This place was recommended to us for lunch and we were sooo disappointed. The mushroom burger was mushy, cold and sloppy. If we did not have an appointment to make, we would have asked for a refund. $28.00 wasted. Maybe this was just an off day but for our first visit, it did not make us want to return.

Omg, what did I do deserving their amazing bahn mi? I didn't event know it was actually 'meat' made out of tofu. My Asian blood temperature was rising. I was high out of it 🥹

I had so many recommendations for this place, so I had to stop by when driving through! I ordered the pimento cheeseburger which came with a salad. The server (Zach) didn't substitute it for fries, so I got the sweet potato fries seperately and a carrot cake. I also ordered a hard ginger lemonade to drink. Everything was so fresh and delicious. I called Zach and thanked him for not substituting the salad. I'm not a fan of salads but I ate it all up without even realizing! The spicy sauce with the fries was amazing! And the carrot cake was possibly one of the best I've had! Great food overall and totally recommend grabbing a bite here even if you need to take a detour! I hope they open up a branch in the north east!
