    Fantastic food (and really pretty food too!), incredibly friendly staff, lovely place. My only suggestion is to maybe not play the music quite so loud (it’s a small place) so conversations can happen more easily. That aside, we are soooo happy to have found a GREAT new (to us) plant based restaurant. Will definitely be back many times!

    Love this place!! Good plant based restaurants are not easy to come by, I loved how creative they are with their menu. It’s not just your classic Mexican dishes, they got very creative with the dishes and ingredients. I went with a friend who is not vegan and she enjoyed it immensely, she didn’t even miss meat or any animal products. And the drinks were AMAZING!! The service staff is friendly, knowledgeable and great at suggestions.
