The restaurant is nice and cozy. Feels a lot more like a cafe than a restaurant; this makes sense, considering it’s in the name.

The Miser, Shiro, Tilkel gomen and house salad were perfect.

Service was quick and the food was fresh. The prices are very reasonable and probably some of the least I’ve paid for these same items, ever.

Food was delicious and really reasonably priced. We got "the works" which includes all the vegan and meat dishes along with salad and injera. It was more than enough for the four of us (we couldn't finish it all). Service was friendly and quick. We arrived rather early around 5pm and the restaurant was fairly quiet but it picked up and got busier as time went on. Definitely recommend :)

The food is delicious, definitely order "the works" if you have 4+ people so you can try everything. They also make gluten-free injera! Bring your own wine! A very laid-back vibe with nice staff and amazing family-style food.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free available
