I didn't know that I have such a good restaurant right behind the corner! It's great because you can come here as vegan or non vegan together and both have great meal. The vegan menu is so good, so you can eat regular diet and order it without disappointment! My not vegan husband loved the vegan Korean chicken taco. I loved the vegan Baja fish taco so much. The cauliflower taco was also surprisingly full of flavor, I loved the cabbage and tahini dressing. The side of refried beans was fresh and delicious. My husband loved his mole enchilada, and we both loved the vegan Caesar salad. In the end we got also a yummy vegan dessert, which was gluten-free bread pudding with coffee ice cream! It was all so good! We are coming back! The staff is extraordinary nice and attentive. To everyone who is reading these reviews about high prices, I am adding a picture of our receipt...

Food and drinks were amazing! The staff was so friendly and gave us chips and salsa on the house because the waiter was running a bit late, which was so kind and thoughtful of them. Best of all, our waiter José was so knowledgeable of gluten allergies and I felt very safe eating there with celiac. I’d love to go back here again and would recommend it to anyone!
