First time in, I was struck by the calm, eclectic atmosphere. It was clean and interesting without being pretentious. The host/waiter/cook was friendly, calm and quiet. As I sat down to eat, the food smelled great. The injira bread was nutty and tangy and held together well. The lentils were perfectly seasoned, and the collard greens were AMAZING! (and I usually dislike collards) there were other dishes offered, buffet style. There was water on hand to pour as one wished, which I thought refreshing instead of having someone come ti the table.
All in all, it was a very homey atmosphere, like going to a favorite relatives or friends house, knowing you could just help yourself.
The cost was really budget friendly and economical! I was very happy to pay their price as cost is usually prohibitive to eating out.
I loved my experience, and will do so again weekly!!
Wonderful place with such inviting ans helpful staff. Great Chai Tea and vegetable puree soup! Loved every bite.
Some of the reviews on here had me nervous, but it was nicer inside than I expected. Since everything on the menu is only $4, we ordered one of everything. Everything on the menu is vegan, which is really nice for me because it means I can eat everything they have. And the food came out really quickly.The parking lot is small, and I couldn't turn in when I drove by, so I parked down the street. There was plenty of free street parking, even on a Friday night.
Delicious plant-based meals for very affordable prices! Try the lunch buffet to become acquainted with their offerings. We enjoyed it and plan to return soon!
The exterior is simple and, in spite of the teal color, somehow doesn't catch your attention well, and the front parking is minimal and tight, but there is plenty of parking nearby.
This is a good place to get some healthy food that is homemade. Yes, the place itself it a little old, but the friendly staff and good food make up for it. Buffet is all you can eat. I found the cuisine to be similar to Indian food in some cases. The variety of options was limited, but what they had was alright. Price is also pretty reasonable. Note that parking is limited.
