My food was amazing for my first time being there. Customer service was just awesome. I loved how she greeted me and how she talked. She was just so sweet and kind but I went at 3:00 PM on a Saturday and the cook told her not to take any more orders they were going on lunch well you should have a sign that says we’re closed from 3 to 4 for lunch and not yell out while you have customers just a food for thought but overall the food was a five out of five I appreciate it and yes I will be back.
"Great food and service, fair prices, Nice portions, good vegetarian with options." "The smoothies are really tasty and the main dishes were loaded with so much flavor." I wish I had made pictures for you. :)
This place has been on my drop-in list for forever and we made it today! Please note: EVERY dish is made fresh-to-order. So, we had a bit of a wait. Enough of a wait to see the brisk call-in orders coming through. Yup, we should have called it in. But they had a pleasant seating area to wait in. The chef took a 15-min break after us. So glad to see a local small business booming! The original is excellent but that BBQ poblano was just amazing. Poblanos have such a bad rap; they are NOT spice, just a little bit of zip combined with the right friends. And don't let the photos fool you, the portion sizes are nice. Lots of street parking.
I’m not really a stuffed pepper person and even I loved this place! A rare restaurant where you both vegans and meat eaters will really enjoy the food. Everything is made to order and the staff was lovely. Make sure you try one of their smoothies too!
Had the time to understand the owner and the mindset. The chilli was good next i have to try the stuffed mushroom thats what I came for. The stuffed peppers was as posted over all the owner puts love in his food and we need that
Some of the best food i’ve had in awhile. This place is such a gem in the city, as soon as you walk in the door you’re smacked in the face with pure flavors and spices. I grabbed the Detroit Poblano Stuffed Pepper with two of the jalapeno poppers on the side sent this way over the top. You can tell they actually care about their food and wouldn’t serve anything to anybody they wouldn’t eat themselves. Like i said one of the most flavorful spots I’ve been to in a while. I’ll 100% be back no question. The young guy behind the counter is running the whole business himself so please be patient!
Ordered takeout and everything we had was absolutely delicious from the stuffed peppers to the sides They also got a juice bar with plenty of healthy options! We ordered a lot and it took about 45 minutes to wait for, so I would call ahead to order. So much flavor and makes for amazing leftovers. Would order again They are also black and vegan owned with no vegan upcharge (not even for the vegan cheese)!
Very tasty, and extremely fresh! I had the Bean Burger which is hard to find on many menus, so I was very excited to try. Excellent presentation for a carry-out burger. The Detroit Stuffed Pepper (ground beef cheddar cheese) is also good. Since it is a vegetarian restaurant, I would only expect things to be “naturally seasoned”. I understand the concept and that is what makes this place unique. Ginger lemonade was a perfect pair with my order.
