Beautiful decor, music & ambiance in this great little spot. Menu options were great and the wine was delicious! Very cozy and unique - great find in NYC!

Horrible customer service!! I was on hold for 32 minutes to speak with reservations and no one answered. I finally arrived and the manager Julia said they’re doing something for Easter and there’s no walk ins. The website says nothing! She didn’t seem to care at all.

Came here with a vegan friend who is from way out of town. She really wanted to eat here and they were really nice to take us at the bar without a reservation. Service was good. Food was tasty. Liked the oyster mushroom chicken and waffles. Perhaps the best is the ambiance tho. Pink, fun and beautiful!

If you have a gluten allergy do not go here, there are 3 items on the menu that are advertised as gluten free. The only fully gf item is the avocado sushi which has cross contamination and cannot be substituted. The kale Caesar requires 2 of the 4 items to be substituted out and they will charge you for the substitutes. The mushroom toast is fine.Service was incredibly quick, it felt like we were rushed out of the restaurant, from sitting down to leaving it was less than 45 minutes and we were in no rush ordering whatsoever.The atmosphere is nice however.

The food was exceptionally flavourful and very carefully crafted. The sauces were rich and complemented the items perfectly. My friends and I ended up having almost every item on the menu and they were back-to-back-to
-back BANGERS! Absolutely delicious and genuine homage to the various cultures that the items were inspired by.
I'm allergic to mushrooms and the manager personally made sure that items were accommodated for me. The manager and the bartender were zipping around all night making sure that everyone was taken care of.
For those of you who may be interested, we heard that there are a few celebrities who frequent the restaurant as well. It's a small place and it fills up quickly even on weeknights.

The staff is absolutely amazing. The grilled cheese was the star of the 3 items. The grilled cheese was full of flavor and had amazing texture. The chicken and waffles was “meh, the mushrooms lacked flavor and was overly greasy, but the waffle was great. The brûlée had a great crunchy sugary top with a smooth custard, if you like the flavor of coconut, then this will be great pick.

My niece found this for us to try when making a trip to the city. I was the only vegan in the group and the other four non-vegans ALL were ready to go vegan after having brunch here!! The mushroom chickn on bao buns, chickn & waffles, B.E.C Buns, avocado & french toast were literally spectacular. It's been hard to find anything as good since eating here. Sorry not enough images, we gobbled up everything too fast to capture it all.

We really enjoyed chatting with the bartender and our food was delicious. We very much enjoyed the mushroom onion toast, KFB (tempura fried broccoli), the eggplant marinara, and the potato au gratin.
It’s fine if you are vegan. If you’re not, it’s a bit depressing. Inside is stuffy and dark and made me feel claustrophobic. I had the KFB which was nice and crispy but wish there was more sauce. The truffle Mac and cheese was fine but gave me a huge stomach ache right after. Wouldn’t come again :( sad because I love to support vegan or vegetarian only restaurants but this place needs to retweak their menu

Took a dozen friends and everything exceeded our expectations. Everyone could not stop talking about the food and said they'd be back with friends and partners. It got a little bit loud so maybe some sound ceiling baffling might improve that for us over 50 ;)

Loved it here and will be back. Good food, good portions (possibly more than we could eat) and nice cocktails. Also fabulously friendly people behind the bar.
