This establishment will change how you feel about and see vegan foods. The burger tastes like real beef!!! Everything in this picture is vegan but the taste is awesome and makes you feel like you’re eating non vegan foods. I highly recommend, plus the waiter is very knowledgeable about the food while also being very sweet and kind.

Wow, that's the best description to give! At first recommendation, I second guessed the idea of going. Then saw they only served breakfast until 2pm, dinner starts at 4pm but no menu until then. Ordered the ultimate bowl (forgot the name of it, cost $17) and breakfast sandwich with sausage n egg ($12) with a mimosa ($5). DELICIOUS 😋 The food was worth the price! Bartender "S" was polite, responsive to comments that we questioned items and such, and quick to help. Music was pleasant and peaceful, we were able to have a conversation without yelling and could hear easily.

It's Hiding back there in the corner. But when you find it?! Oh your mouth is gonna be happy. The cheesesteak was the least impressive. Filling and tasty. Nice sandwich. The shrum Mac n cheese had amazing flavors and good texture. The cheese tots were grown up, crispy on the outside tender inside and well seasoned. A bit skimpy on the cheese. The ranch that comes with it is too good to be called ranch. The hush puppy's will make you hush. They are huge dense yummy fried happiness. And the butter that comes with them will confuse you with layers of fabulous flavor. Choose from scattered tables, high or low, tables along the perimeter, maybe a sofa, or the bar. Various colored ambient lights. Place is a bit drafty. They are not shy with the drinks. If this place were near me I

Grateful to have a delicious plant based place open on a Sunday and they are open late. (They also have brunch on Sun until 2.) I got the house hoot sandwich- made with tofu and rad cabbage slaw with spicy ginger sauce that was great. It took me a moment because the slaw was cold but with the warm sandwich and tofu and warm fries it went well together. Hubby got the Philly and he does not like onions so it was nice that the peppers were not pre-mixed with the onions he would rate the sandwich a 4/5. My daughter who usually does not like any meat substitutes actually liked the veg-fil-a she said she would give it a 4/5. The fries were delicious. Prices were great for the taste and quantity of food. We don’t eat out much so it was worth it, upper end of our price point. Staff very friendly a

The best vegan place I've been to! My boyfriend is 100% vegan and we tried it last year and ever since, we go every time we're in town! The food is so good! I highly recommend going for Sunday brunch! The pancakes are very filling and it comes with a side and free coffee. Brunch specials rotate, so keep an eye out on their Instagram! Recently, they had blueberry pancakes topped with sliced banana. It was delicious 😋. I also tried the breakfast sandwich. The sauce on it was so good and tastes even better than a regular breakfast sandwich. The cake is also highly recommended. It's a good size for the price and in my opinion, is great taken home and warmed up.
