The "Pasta Roulade w/ Oyster Mushrooms , French Beans , Arugula Pesto + Tofu Ricotta " was AMAZING and don't leave without dessert ! LOVED the Apple Strawberry Pie and the Chocolate Pie was great too.

Molly Szkotak

They've somehow managed to make the most unsexy combination of words ("vegan Caesar salad ") something that I crave almost every day. You can also get it in a wrap (I know, boring) and it's DELICIOUS!

Brenda Conner

I got the bbq jackfruit sandwich and it was delicious!!!! Vegan chocolate cake and icecream too ❤️❤️❤️ but the best part was we had a super awesome waiter !

Liz Kay

Great if your group is mixed with gluten free/veggie/vegan as there will be something safe and tasty for everyone even if they have no dietary restrictions.

We come here whenever we are in Richmond. The tofu Caesar salad is amazing. The BBQ jackfruit is also delicious. Bottom line its all good.

Alejandra Morlett

Cesar salad is so good! The tofu is very tasty that you forget it's not chicken :)

The menu is always changing, I had the tofu sandwich - which was good. The sweet potato fries were "meh" and the service is always friendly but sooooo slooooow.

Jeff MacDonald

The caesar salad with grilled marinated tofu is amazing! Even if you don't like tofu , you will love this.

Some of the best vegetarian food in RVA, a great tea selection and Blanchard's Coffee Co.

Always use the bathroom closest to the kitchen. It's usually 90% drier than the other one...

Lulú De Panbehchi

The Gouda cheese sandwich is the best!

$3 wine + beer happy hour Mon - Thurs from 5-7!!

Jenny Beth Friar

everything's good, gouda sandwhiches , curry , then you leave a missed connection for the bar staff or wait staff or kitchen staff . I haven't actually done that, but everyone else seems to...

Huge portions of comfort food. Pizza fries were unique. Cheese on everything! Craft beer. Milkshakes nice and thick (though flavored with syrups). - Gina
