Reviews

Heaven for vegetarians! You can't go wrong with the Mediterranean platter and the black bean burger. Prices are very reasonable and the staff is extremely friendly. They have live music during lunch time (at least every time that I have been here). It's pretty relaxing. Not good for big parties but if you have less than 5 people going on a group, it's a great choice.

This place is fantastically fabulous! I loved all of my food! The black bean burger and the potato cheese bowl!

The best vegetarian/vegan food in CU. Wholesome, made with so much love and care, and so incredibly affordable for the quality and quantity you get. They have live music on occasion, a great place to study or catch up with a friend. Tip the staff, because they all work incredibly hard to keep their prices reasonable and keep this place accessible to their community.

I love the food here... it's all vegan, which I love because it's safer for vegans. I had the nachos, so good, a cookies and a Philly I think. I wish they were open longer because I'm from about 45 mins or so away but I'm still coming back...

Coursed out dinner for Valentine's Day! Each course delicious! Faves were the salad course with the house dressings. Cashew Alfredo. Pistachio Rose Cake. Service was amazing as well!

This was my first time visiting, and I will be back! They had delicious food and a great atmosphere. The employees were very friendly and welcoming. I wish I took a picture of my food, but I had a Seitan BLT, a cup of carrot-ginger soup, and my friend and I shared the hummus plate. My friend ordered the Olive Avocado Veggie sandwich, and he really liked it! I would recommend everything I ordered, I felt so satisfied. I do not normally eat vegan or vegetarian for that matter, but I will definitely be going back.
