The Fresh Citrus Kale Salad is the perfect healthy, refreshing meal for a hot summer’s day. Avocado , hemp seeds, and oil-free tamari dressing make it as hearty as it is nourishing.

Don't understand the hype about the kale salad here. I usually love kale and salads (and of course most things vegan ) but this was not very tasty!

AMAZING!!!!! Food is ACE and the staff is awesome! Best food I have had in a long time!

Ask for the spicy kale salad with crispy oyster mushrooms on top. Not on the menu , but an amazing combo introduced to me by Hot Knives (www.urbanhonking.com/hotknives) chef Evan George. Yumyum...

The food here is so good. Really nice intimate vibe too.

Be fashionable & conscious when you dine on the best vegetarian cuisine in the city at this ten-table treasure run by former indie rockers.
