    Had a lovely and quick meal with my boyfriend here! The food was yummmyyy and tasted even better knowing I was putting fresh and thoughtful ingredients into my system. Their steak and eggs were lovely— a great post-run meal to replenish your sodium, protein and all the things. Our server Emily was charming and swift! We will certainly be back to this hidden gem again! Quick note: I had a matcha here that was not good tho. (Honey lavender— just was way too grassy) And my boyfriend also didn’t enjoy his coffee. So maybe just have water or another type of drink lol

    Finally, a seed-oil free restaurant that’s focusing on delivering a high quality food experience, free from the toxins most restaurants don’t take the time and care to avoid.
