Delicious healthy food serving aIl dietary preferences and restrictions. Busy location at lunch time. Attentive staff, food arrived quickly. We started with the soup special Rae's Red Lentil followed by a Warm Kale Salad, Double Paleo Bowl and Macro Bowl. Return visit 5 months later, and same great food and service. This time, Incredible Nachos, Fiesta Bowl, and Tuna Melt. All were delicious. For a great pick me up have a Aztec Mocha with Cayenne, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Almond and Vanilla.

Great Service and made to order. Plenty of vegan options. Maybe 15 - 20 minute wait for the food from time of order but worth it when it is preped fresh. She had the Bom salad and loved it. The Jackfruit Soft tacos were good, had to try. They had a different flavor than what i was expecting but damn good. As a starter we had the seared Tuna.....highly recome d that !

Our favorite restaurant in town (and all locations do not disappoint). Our daughter has a severe dairy and gluten allergy, and finding a restaurant who takes cross contamination seriously is hard to find— but not here. Each staff member is trained for these protocols and we have never once had a scare. Not only this, but the food is TASTY and HEALTHY. Try the Bahn Mi Bowl with Avocado or the BLTA on naan bread — my personal favorites!

⭐⭐⭐⭐ We went in for lunch today. It was very busy. Greated with a smile. I think we got the last open table. We went with the cod tacos. They were good, and I loved the rice and beans that went with them. The waiter allowed us to sample the kombucha. Which we ordered and it was good. They did not rush us at all. The tables are a little too close of a fit. But the overall experience was a treat.
