Cute little spot. I came for the short rib grilled cheese that I had seen on a video. It was good but a little thinner than pictured but still good. I loved the tomato chutney that came with it. It had just the right amount of sweetness and spice to meld with the cheese. Hubby liked the red pepper soup he thought it could use more cubed potatoes like in a chowder to make it more hearty. Service was great everyone was so friendly. It was slow when we got there but picked up quickly. Loved that I could get a gluten free version and there are also vegan choices. Cute spot very clean.

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.

Don't drive too fast and miss this hidden gem. I was getting gas when I saw two different ppl in about 2mins picking up food. I googled them and proceeded to my appointment. Their menu was intriguing, so on my way bk stopped in for soup and sandwich and their signature peanut noodles. Their noodles are delicious both cold and hot. The soup was perfect for autumn weather; chicken sausage ans beans. That coupled with my short rib sandwich. Lmk tell you, I cldnt even finish my sandwich. Tht was fine with me; more enjoyment for the next day. Service was great. They were very attentive. There's parking in the back. Prices were good. Place was clean. While I took mine to go, one can dine in. Its perfectly positioned near the Walk-on/over-the Hudson. One can walk and then sit and eat. Plan on visiting again when in the area.

Excellent local joint for fresh cafe food. Ingredients were fantastic in the Baja Chicken wrap. The steak and street corn wrap was delicious as the meat was cooked nicely and trimmed. Both the peanut noodles and pesto pasta for the sides cam recommended. Busy and popular place.
