I ate the vegan burger, which was made of beyond meat. It was fresh and beautifully presented, but I don't like beyond products, because they pretend to be meat. In the future, I would love to see a veggie burger made of veggies. But I understand that this is not a priority of this restaurant. Service is attentive and friendly but slow.

I'd like to give them a few tips to gloomy options, but I can't. we couldn't save a space for this.
