However, I have to give it just 1 star due to poor quality control regarding their salads—I found a bug in mine, and the lettuce looked rather unappetizing. It's a shame, because the location is really convenient.

So, was my first cookie even vegan? When I placed my third order, I called to check if they had the same soup (Kale, Potato, Leek Soup) I enjoyed on my first visit. Guess what? They had no vegan options available at that time either! I had to settle for the Green Pea Soup instead. I wanted to give this restaurant another chance, but this last experience was definitely my last. The food is good, and I would love to keep supporting them, but if they can’t provide the items on their menu, they really need to update it.

The dishes may sound simple, but they are packed with rich and complex flavors that are clearly inspired by Latin cuisine. I've dined here over 20 times and tried more than 20 different dishes, and each one has been delicious. The atmosphere is somewhat lackluster, as the restaurant is located in a converted space within a scientific research building, so don't expect the ambiance to reflect the outstanding food. In fact, this contrast adds to the overall surprise of the dining experience. You walk in thinking it will be cafeteria-style food, only to be pleasantly surprised by a high-quality meal.

As a big fan of tuna, I can confidently say that their tuna sandwich tastes incredibly fresh, unlike the dried-out versions you often find in most delis. All the ingredients used are of the highest quality. The best part? The prices are quite reasonable.
