I wasn't impressed with what I ended up ordering. I will give it another try and provide an update.

Although I now live out of town, I recently visited with my family and was pleased to see that they cater to everyone. The vegan options we tried were the Gyro salad, which was excellent, and the perogies, which were a bit heavy and lacking in greens on top (a smaller portion with a side salad would have been better). Unfortunately, the macaroni and cheese was not up to par as it wasn't even made with macaroni noodles. Despite the slightly higher prices, the portions were generous. Overall, I would happily dine here again.

Unfortunately, the food was mediocre. The vegan burger was disappointing and the vegan mac 'n ' cheese had an odd sweetness to it. The restaurant was crowded and noisy on a Saturday night, and it took a while to receive our food. This place is a good option if you're dining with meat-eaters or finicky eaters.

Lots of beers and cocktails, 4 vegan menu items (impossible burger, broccoli pierogi, lettuce cups, and mushroom burger). We would definitely recommend the mushroom burger and lettuce cups that we had. They also had tons of sides including vegan Mac n cheese, edamame, and asparagus.
