Absolutely excellent restaurant. Have been countless times in the past 5+ years and have had an outstanding experience every time. Especially appreciate that they offer an incredible experience even to gluten-free customers like myself.

Tim the head chef created the most delicious Ath-Hash vegan dish, with tofu, spiralized vegetables, and the perfect amount of spices and salt. It was served with delightfully crunchy sourdough toast. My daughter enjoyed her gluten-free bread, too. And my granddaughters said the toasted cheese-and-ham sandwiches from the kids' menu was great.

My third time here and I’m never disappointed!! Cozy, warm atmosphere both inside or outside. Here on a rainy Friday at 5:30, having a coffee and a delicious gluten-free almond apricot tart in a candle-lit booth while I do some work on my computer.

I come here at least once a week, know all the staff by name, and feel like we're actual friends at this point. Michael (the owner) is wonderful. Ashlynn and Kimberly are amazing. Everyone who works there is super kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. I am slowly making my way through the entire menu, because I'm thoroughly addicted to the loaded teas in particular. If it has sour blue, I'm drinking it. I get my husband a shake here every time I go, and he has a "usual" at this point. He has Celiac Disease and needs gluten-free with no cross contact or anything, and they're always willing to clean the blenders and do whatever needs to be done. When I go, my best friend is usually with me, and she is allergic to soy and nuts (including coconut), among other things. At this point they remember her allergies, and when she comes in and asks if she can have a certain menu item, they're able to tell her easily. At first she apologized for being difficult, but they truly don't seem to mind, and are always super sweet about it all. We love it here, and I hope they're open for a million years and my schedule always permits me to visit every week! Get the Hocus Pocus, Watermelon Jolly Rancher, Sour Patch, Friday The 13th, or virtually anything else. I have never had anything I didn't like!
