Super novel and cute place! The pasta is homemade and are actually very cool shapes. Very friendly staff. It's a bit expensive for lunch, but a treat every other week or so.

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.

Super novel and cute place! The pasta is homemade and are actually very cool shapes. Very friendly staff. It's a bit expensive for lunch, but a treat every other week or so.
Scratch-Made Greatness This has officially become my new go-to. It’s world-class—a tier I’ve only put one other restaurant in. You can really taste the difference because they make their own pasta, sauces, soups and focaccia in-house. I highly recommend the lentil soup, the Flamin' Maven pasta, and the Protein Mix salad, and the build-your-own options are great if you’re feeling creative. Beyond the food, the cleanliness standards are uncommonly high, and the staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. The portions are generous enough to share or, better yet, take home leftovers to enjoy a second time. A rare find where quality meets convenience.

Their sizes (maven vs munch) are almost exactly the same and they shrunk since the last time I ordered. The first time They were circular bowls that were deeper and they gave a nice portion. This time the containers shrunk and the difference between the maven and the munch was very small. See photo side by side and lids one on top of the other. For the price, portions should be bigger. This is pasta not even meat.
