Vegetarian restaurant, Bar ★4.0 (345)·$50–100

4.0
I was really excited to try this place. The interior is bright, cheerful, and inviting. It definitely has the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to sit down and enjoy a meal. That said, I did feel it was a bit overpriced. The drink I ordered was delicious, but the portion was surprisingly small for the price. I felt similarly about the food. It tasted good, but nothing stood out as exceptional given the cost and portion size.Still, I think it’s worth checking out, and I’d be open to going back to try a few more items. Maybe we didn't pick the right thing and need to go back outside of brunch. - Tracey M
