Tried a bunch of different things here today and everything was delicious! Had the TLTandA, the kids grilled cheese, and the kids Mac and cheese. The fries are perfectly seasoned wedge fries with great dipping sauces. So impressed!

I have been coming to this place since I first went vegan, and have seen it undergo menu changes and mature as an establishment, going from almost exclusively takeout to now a sit-down restaurant.
So I was heartbroken when I received an email that it would be closing at the end of this month. Knew I needed to stop by and support it in these last days. Food was delicious as always. Will definitely miss this gem?Hopefully the great minds behind it can keep their love for food...
