Some of the best vegan food I have ever had, and the menu is really creative. We had the classic steamed pierogis, beet soup, and an almond cream cake. Pierogis were incredible, and the cream cake was much better than I expected it would be. Atmosphere is cool, would go back.

You need to show up 5:00 and wait in line a little bit, but it’s the best food I have had in Pittsburgh, and I have eaten out every day for ~13 weeks as our kitchen is being renovated. Our friends and my wife forced me to come here, because when I see “vegan” I am just not interested. I am so glad we came, because we tried almost everything absolutely nothing wasn’t amazing. Super friendly staff, great ordering concept, good wine, good beer… Just come
