Great vegan and vegetarian options, but all the food we ordered (housemade bakery goods, omlette lorraine, east side burger) lacked flavor.

One of the best vegetarian restaurants around. The chef knows her stuff and makes amazing dishes. The martini list is my favorite thing :) Organic liquor and wines. Small, intimate inside, great for dates. And I have to say that after having a difficult experience one Valentine's Day the owner went above and beyond making sure I was satisfied. I... more
