Delicious salmon and rice. It has a hint of lemon and is delicious. I was with coworkers and not as focused on ordering. I asked for no cheese on my salad and she thought to ask if I had a dairy allergy. I really appreciate her catching that because she knew there was a butter sauce that goes on the Salmon. She saved me a reaction. It’s a cozy little restaurant but you want to get in there before 12 because they get busy. It’s no surprise! My coworkers both enjoyed their meals as well (salad with chicken and salad with salmon). It does get loud and there isn’t a ton of parking so you may have to park on the street. But, it’s worth a try!

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.

I ordered the grilled chicken, yellow rice, and Greek salad. The food was very fresh and delicious. The atmosphere and service was phenomenonal. The restaurant was very clean. The prices are very reasonable.

The food was good, and that’s really the main reason for the 3 stars. Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. Our waitress was rude and inattentive, which made the experience uncomfortable. If staff rely on tips, there should be more care and respect toward customers. The restaurant was also extremely dark inside, to the point that I had to use my phone’s flashlight just to read the menu. It honestly made me want to leave after about 10 minutes. Maybe that’s intentional to turn tables faster and get more customers in, but it definitely didn’t enhance the dining experience. Good food, but the service and atmosphere really need improvement. I won’t be coming back.
