Instead of Hash Browns, I received boiled potatoes that were not what I expected. The roasted beans were replaced with boiled kidney beans that were bland, and the mushrooms were extremely bitter. Additionally, there was no jam as stated in the menu. When I brought this up to the server, she did not seem to care about my concerns. This experience completely ruined my Sunday morning and I am no longer considering this restaurant as my go-to brunch spot. I am very disappointed and will not be returning.

I enjoyed the Immune Booster fresh juice and the eggplant hummus cutlet burger with falafel and salad. I highly recommend trying the falafel and juice. And to top it off, there's also a cute cat hanging around.

While it may be on the pricier side and offer Western cuisine, they are knowledgeable about the distinction between vegetarian and vegan options.

This is a great place with plenty of vegan choices. The food is delicious, especially the warm vegan banana cake which is fantastic. read more This is a great place with plenty of vegan choices. The food is delicious, especially the warm vegan banana cake which is fantastic.

For example, instead of Hash Browns..i got boiled potatoes which were sautéed, instead of roasted beans..i got boiled kidney beans which were too bland, mushrooms were super bitter (maybe over cooked or something) and there was no jam (as was written in the menu). Didn't point out it to them as i didn't want to ruin my day any further by listening to their bizarre reasoning. Ruined my Sunday morning completely. Ambient used to be my go to place for brunch..guess, i am not going there again because i'm really disappointed. Updated from previous review on 2021-06-28
