Great quality! Loved taking the kids here. Plenty of made in house options.

My only criticism is the totally overwhelming choice! Bravo to this place for creating a very chilled and inclusive diner :)
I had the Cuban, it was nice. Staff super friendly. Almost 100% vegan, all vegetarian, house or locally made vegan subs are used. It was a great place to wait for the post-game traffic to die down!

It might be meat free…but it’s not cruelty free. They offer eggs and cow cheese. I had the vegan brunch…it was ok.

Their lunch menu offers something for everyone.

The portions are just right, leaving you satisfied without being too heavy.

As a meat-eater, I was skeptical, but went here to try it out. I had Buddha's Karma Burger with yucca chips. The burger itself was fine - I didn't get a lot of flavor from the chimichurri sauce, but the sweet potato burger had the right taste. It was kind of pricey for what you get, and the diner decor definitely needs a revamp (looks dusty and the seat wasn't comfortable), but I'd go back to try something else.

Related to pricing but not about the food, the art on the walls didn't really fit the diner vibe. The art is also up for sale at price points above $100. Not in a mean way towards the artist - there's just no way the art is worth more than $15. When you see it, you'll know lol.
