Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Came in with about 15 for a prayer breakfast. Men from the church, for fellowship, prayer and breaking bread. The service was amazing and the coffee didn't run out, nor the creamer. Everything was amazing except the egg was a little overdone. Everyone else seemed happy with their food and it all looked amazing. I didn't get a picture of mine, but a friend's. Overall I'm glad I came.

Ordered food for pick up and ordered over medium eggs and got over hard. The home fries weren't cooked all the way and most of it was partly raw and hard. They are supposed to be soft and crispy on the outside. My daughter got the Sata pancake and was happy. I haven't touched the ham, bacon or my pancakes yet. Sausage was good. Was looking forward to the eggs and potatoes... Very disappointed. Especially since those are easy things to cook. Service was excellent and quick... Told her name and offered to show ID and credit card per website. She was friendly but unaware of that policy listed online.

We were celebrating my little sister's birthday. It is kid-friendly and it has high chairs. The waitress was really friendly and the food was excellent. We did not have to wait a long time to get our food. The restrooms were clean and it has a place to change diapers, and it has a large parking lot. I love that the garden looks really nice with the bright, colorful flowers. It also has a large inventory of things that you can purchase.
