The mushroom empanada is delicious! Caprice Salad and vegetable pizza were both really good as well. The service was friendly, relaxed and efficient. So many other interesting items on the menu - I will definitely be back to try them all, as well as spread the word to vegan and plant-based friends! *Some young ladies were reading poetry from the small stage/mic - it’s sincerely beautiful to see them be able to share themselves, their voices, in a safe space.

The food and ambiance are amazing. My first time here from New Jersey and I plan on coming back🥰

I highly recommend this restaurant! The food is amazing! You must try the buffalo wings if you love your dishes with a spicy kick and the buffalo cauliflower bites that simply melt in your mouth! The Chef's V Steak is a rich and flavorful you should try it. The service is wonderful and the ambiance is very trendy.
