The food was delicious! The drinks were crafted with passion and care and tasted divine. We had a larger party and everyone enjoyed their food thoroughly. The servers were sociable and welcoming to us all. Even though the staff were friendly, the service was not what I would expect for an establishment like this. Our server was also the bartender. She and one other person were the servers for the entire restaurant. The restaurant is a smaller and cozier space, but with the multiple roles our server had to play, our food and drinks took a long while to come out. Not everyone got their food together in a timely fashion. For dessert: we ordered all 4 options on the menu. The baklava was delicious and the bread pudding was a close second; although it was more of a bread cake with ice cream rather than a proper bread pudding. The chocolate cake was dry and bland. The cheesecake had a very odd aftertaste and was also somewhat bland. Overall, our experience was a 3/5. Lots of little things added up including but not limited to: 1. A very large crack in the ceiling above our table 2. Our server mentioning that the curry dish was not spicy, a person at our table ordering the curry, and the curry was very spicy. 3. We did not get our extra sauce that we requested. 4. Our entrees did not all come out at once; two of our colleagues ended up getting their entrees after most of us were close to finishing our meals.

By far the best vegan experience I’ve ever had. The staff is attentive and kind, the ambiance is like a warm hug and the food is thoughtful, creative and spot on. The carbonara was creamy and rich, lined with unbelievably flavorful roasted veg that truly makes you question whether it could actually be vegan. The chickpea soup was perfect and gin cocktail special was unparalleled and completely unique. 10/10, can’t wait to come back

Beautifully intimate setting with friendly staff and delicious food. We have been here twice for special occasions (it isnt cheap!) and we loved it. We usually end up getting a full 3 course meal because we can pick what to get! The restaurant is very intimate and charming. The meals we have had here are very well thought out with seasonal ingredients, and their ever changing menu keeps things fresh and exciting. Im looking forward to coming back to try new seasonal dishes!

Our second time here and loved it even more. I don’t like bland food and was happy to see everything here was on point with spices and flavors. They are clearly making creative use of Indian and Thai ingredients. Highly recommend.

This peach salad was phenomenal! Grilled peaches, vegan feta and pecan nuts created an explosion of flavors! It was absolutely delicious! The sad thing: peach season is now over but the other dishes must be awesome as well! :)
