The veggie burger is scrumptious, although making it vegan just involves taking off the brioche bun. They usually offer a delicious rice bowl on the menu too. The staff is well-informed about vegan options, making it an ideal spot for those following a plant-based diet.

Here's what happened: One person in our party of 7, who is a vegetarian, was charged for fettuccine bolognesealthough she ordered fettuccine with butter. It took the waitress 3 tries to get the simple order correct. Maybe she shouldwrite down the order to get it right? First it came out as bolognese, second time came out with no sauce but meat sprinkled allover it, third time with butter as ordered. When the bill came, we were charged for the fettuccine bolognese. We asked to havethe bill changed to reflect no bolognese but the waitress and person in charge swore she ordered the bolognese (which shedidn't) and would not subtract the extra charge off the bill. The person in charge took the waitress' side on this dispute. Overa few dollars they lost 7 customers plus those we tell. We will not be coming back.

The first time they opened and we went to dinner was great. But the last visits were like that. Last weekend, my husband went to dinner with a friend. And both got sick. I just phoned with chef Joanna. She said they cook her lamb balls very well. But there was no solution for problem or they both got sick. Very regrettable, as they pay a lot of money to go to dinner. And just to get home and get sick. This is frustrating on many levels. I have to take care of a baby and don't need a man to take care of who gets sick in a restaurant that didn't take the precautions to check what they cook.

The burger was a beef/pork mixture that just didn’t taste very good. The bun soaked through and it becameimpossible to eat. Fried pickles were the best part of the meal.
