Went here for lunch on Sunday and we’re very happy with the food and service. Chris was our server and he was very kind and attentive. It was clear by my observation of other patrons and staff members that they treat everyone amazing. Will come back for sure!

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.

Went here for lunch on Sunday and we’re very happy with the food and service. Chris was our server and he was very kind and attentive. It was clear by my observation of other patrons and staff members that they treat everyone amazing. Will come back for sure!
This was THE WORST experience my wife and I could've had. First red flag is when we walked in their chalk sign said they were closed. A server walked by and said he has no idea why it was up but he just left it. Second,our waiter was impossible to understand. He spoke FAR to quietly and you mix that with his accent I had no idea what he was saying or asking. He was also the slowest server I've ever met. Third, it took a solid 45 mins to get our food served to us. Both were awful. For $25 a plate I expected edible but it was quite the opposite. My steak tasted as if it was based in burnt oil. Every chew felt like I was chomping on chemics. The cook on it was perfect but it was absolutely inedible based on whatever oil or seasoning they used. 2 bites in and I was gagging. My wife's food was less then steller. Her poached eggs were scrambled on the inside, the "avocado toast" was just few slices of avocado on one slice of bread. She has salmon on top of it. Had the salmon was so hard it crunch and the other part was so mush it was nearly pudding. On top of it all is she pulled scales off of it Fourth, after waiting another 35 mins to get our waiter to come back once we told him the issue. He admitted this happens often. And that he can't do anything so he'd get the manager. Fifth, manager comes over and asked if we wanted different food. We denied and he just said "sorry" then walked away. We were highly confused at what the next steps were since he didn't do anything. Sixth, after another 45 mins we had to get up and go find someone. We found the manager and asked him to come over and he just turned around. Finally out waiter came over and said "did the manager come over" (meaning there is no communication). We told him what the manager did. Waiter was confused and clearly frustrated and told us to just go. This place needs to figure their issues out. I have no idea how they're open. High priced bad foods with bad workers and terrible management it's a miracle it's still open. Avoid at all costs!

Nice spot! The entire restaurant is huge, so there’s a ton of seating. There was no wait for breakfast, we were seated promptly and our server greeted us pretty quickly once we were seated. The menu is extensive with so many different choices, not only for breakfast, but lunch and dinner as well. I’ve passed this place too many times not realizing what it had to offer. A great location in the Valley! Food was great! Another unexpected option was the huge beverage selection, including boozy breakfast options! Can’t wait to try another meal here!
