Very good food at cost friendly rate. I like the Banh Mi sandwich.

We stopped here on a Sunday afternoon when things were slow and they were out of a few things we wanted to try. What we did get was good, like the nachos. Would love to try the beer selection next time!

The Mac and Cheese was over cooked and had no salt in it. The chickn burger lacked flavor and the only thing carrying it was Mayo and barbecue sauce. The only thing I liked was nachos bc I ordered a mushroom soup and tofu bowl too which weren't very good

It's ok. I've been here a few times. The nachos had waaaaaayyyyyy too many black beans and not enough cheese and other toppings. The chickpea siracha bowl greatly lacked flavor and there aren't any salt/pepper shakers to add some (not that I should have to). The blackberry lemonade was trash. It tasted like fresh brewed plain black tea so they must have forgotten to add something.Customer service is decent and the food presentation is always nice. The prices aren't terrible either. I just wish the food and drinks were a lot tastier.Vegetarian options: Vegan.Parking: Street

The people I encountered were nice and helpful. The food was hit or miss. This place has potential. The good was the pineapple cupcake, sweet potato fries, and kale salad. The cookie was ok, bottom was browned but overall it was not over cooked. The tofu for chicken was thick and very moist. Maybe the tofu is a softer grade than I'm use to. The chicken bun was refrigerator cold on top. The dog was huge but not great tasting. The most disappointing thing was the mac and cheese. It was like there was no elbow noodles. Maybe it was nearing the end of the pan or something. No I didnt stir it. I took a couple of pics to try and show the detail of the texture. It worked for us as traveling vegans, but there is room for improvement. Hope the owner takes the info with an open mind as intended. I love to support small business especially vegan ones. Wish you success!

Not the best experience. I was informed 30-40 minutes after my order was placed and accepted that they didn't have the main ingredient for what I ordered so I asked for a refund and instead of canceling and refunding me they went ahead and sent out something I didn't ask for. I went through hoops to get someone back on the phone from the store regarding a refund which I hopefully will get. I'll be finding another place, they've lost me as a customer.

We loved this restaurant. The food, including the desert, was great. Their beer was awesome as well.

We were greeted right when we came in. Food was very good we ordered the BBQ chicken bacon Mac sandwich with kale side. The guy at the front offered to let us try the chick pea side as well and said it was more savoury and he was right it was very delicious! I wish I had his name so I could put it in here, he was very helpful! I liked the spice that was in all the food and I loved the tofu in the sandwich. Food came out in a timely manner as well. We ate before I could take a picture!

I really wanted to like an support a local vegetarian restaurant, but my experience here was a little rough. I walked in and stood by the counter to Oder. I could see two people working in the kitchen but no one acknowledged me. Not even a 'welcome' or a 'we will be with you shortly'. Nothing for like 15 min. Just as I was about to leave someone came and took my order. They were very friendly when they finally did so They were out of two things I asked for and then it took another 25 minutes to get a sandwich. Perhaps this is best a place to stop at when you aren't in. Any hurry and maybe bring a book.

I have been here three times now over the past several months. My first two experiences were pretty good. This time the food was not the same quality (I ordered the same thing all three times), and the staff did not know what they were doing. They didn’t know who ordered which food. They tried to hand me someone else’s larger order without making sure I paid for it. I could have walked out with out.I told them it wasn’t my order, and I still need to pay for my order since I called it in over the phone. Then there was confusion on ringing up the order. The cashier started combining my order with the other order. I had to repeat my order, and they seem surprised like they didn’t have an order for what I requested. I was asked twice if I was sure I hadn’t ordered a different sandwich. I repeated my order to the guy that seemed to be the cook. He had walked out front by this point to help the cashier. I verbally repeated my order, and he went in the back to prepare my order.The sandwich was definitely not the same as the first two times I had ordered it. It is common for places to offer different options on items such as different breads or different items inside the sandwich. Each time I have ordered food I used the online menu for reading the menu, and then I called in my order. The online menu does not list other options for the sandwiches, but the bread was not the same, and it was a step back from the previous bread which was more like a flatbread instead of a sub roll, which is what I got with my most recent order.If we have these options then it needs to be more clear on the online menu, or the person taking the order on the phone should ask those questions.The sandwich was also lacking a lot of filling. It was like I was eating a plain roll. I barely tasted anything besides the bread. The sandwich was much more flavorful the first two times I had it, and it actually had filling in the sandwich.I hope this was a one-off experience. I am not vegan, but I like the option, and not being vegan doesn’t prevent me from wanting to eat it sometimes.I gave this review three stars. If we were able to use decimal points I think a 2.7 or 2.8 would be a little more accurate than three stars.

We were very excited to come here. Unfortunately we picked a bad day. They were out of a lot of items (NO CHEESE SAUCE!!!) Otherwise the food was great!
