What our guests are saying
First time eating here and it was great! I went for dinner with a colleague and we were promptly greeted and seated. The gentleman that was serving us was very attentive ( Forgot to ask for his name) and the food came out super quick but still hot and fresh! will definitely be back

I've been going here since college, as this is one of my favorite restaurants ever. The service is unparalleled - quick, helpful, and very enthusiastic. The ambiance is very welcoming, and there are always so many people (families, groups of friends, etc.) dining in. Plenty of seating, beautiful and lively decor, and - of course - the food is absolutely divine. The Vegan Platter is full of versatile options that feed more than one person, and for the price, you get so much food! 100/10 recommend!

My first time here, on vacation with friends that love this restaurant. Food was amazing, I wanted to try breakfast, got breakfast combo. My friends got the meat lovers meal. Everything was so delicious. Our waitress was so nice, and helpful. I will definitely be back when i'm down again.
