The food was really good and fresh; however, our orders were messed up, with me not getting the items I ordered. I was given a free dish, because of all the issues with trying to tell the original wait staff what we wanted, which was really nice of them. The original person, who took our orders, had a very difficult time with English, even when we pointed out exactly what we wanted on the menu, and showed, with our fingers, the amounts we wanted.
Thank goodness a different...

This restaurant gives you the feeling that you been invited over a person home, very comfortable and warm atmosphere.

The food takes a bit of time to come out, but that's because everything for the most part is made to order. The Kabobs were favorable and juicy. The hummus was the best I've ever had.

I will have to definitely return to try their tea and coffee!

This cafe is quite eclectic ! It serves a niche Slovak food ! It has ethnic vibe which most of the restaurants lack these days! Owner is generous and lovely! She also served me a free tea ! I’m gonna explore all the vegan and vegetarian dishes now !
