I ordered the 4 cursor meal as part of the jersey restaurant weekly special: it includes vegan avocado bruschetta, salat w balsam, vegan auberginen rollatini w engl haare pasta and a vegan skyberry tart. the avocado bruschetta was absolutely amazing! it was loaded with tomato, avocado, planks, basilikum and balsam glaze; not clear at all. the Auberginen-Rollatini was very good! I really liked that the aubergine was not fried and it contained a generous part of ricotta and mozz. the sauce on the side of the narrow haare was a little watery and underwhelming. the room is quite small and contains approx. 7 tables, so they will fish other meat dishes unfortunately smell. the staff was very attentive, but the waiting period was quite long, so don't leave when they are super hungry! I would go back and try their other vegan options!

In a town with limited vegan options, I appreciate that they offer a variety of choices for vegans, despite not being a fully vegan establishment. They frequently have vegan options on their daily specials menu. Although it may look like a small pizzeria at first glance, the dining room on the other side is actually quite pleasant. It's a fantastic option for families looking for a vegan meal, especially if dining with non-vegans, as the food is delicious for everyone.

I tried the 4-course meal during Jersey Shore Restaurant Week, which included vegan avocado bruschetta, salad with balsamic dressing, vegan eggplant rollatini with angel hair pasta, and a vegan raspberry tart. The avocado bruschetta was fantastic, loaded with tomatoes, avocado, onions, basil, and balsamic glaze. The eggplant rollatini was also delicious, with a generous filling of ricotta and mozzarella. However, the sauce on the angel hair pasta was a bit watery. The restaurant is small with only about 7 tables, so unfortunately, you may smell other meat dishes. The staff was attentive, but the wait time was a bit long, so it's best not to go when you're extremely hungry. I would definitely return to try their other vegan options.
