Lovely little place with a great mission to serve the community and a focus on helping the less fortunate. Instead of a tip for food service workers, you can choose to contribute to a "pay it forward" fund to help provide free meals to the needy. If you're hungry and can't afford a meal, you can discreetly order a meal from the pay it forward fund. The food is made from locally-sourced ingredients when possible, and is fresh, healthy, and delicious. Wonderful vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options. A restaurant totally worthy of anyone's support!
