    The date salad was excellent! On a cold day/night, the hot cider with rum hit the spot. I'm not a vegan or a vegetarian, and I really enjoyed this place. Reasonable prices and very friendly staff.

    Excellent local restaurant that serves primarily vegan dishes but offers something for everyone. There is even a kids menu. Start with light farm feta and move to the Pan Roasted Old Bay Catfish.

    Food for omnivores & veggies, though almost all menu items can be made veg*n on request. Lots of Daiya cheese! Their smoked tofu is delicious. Best veg*n brunch in the city on the weekend.

    BMV burger was excellent - you can get beef or chickpea burgers, and they're both good and very different.

    I usually order the vegan Migas, which is always delicious, but today I decided to try the Saladboy, which is new to the menu. Fantastic!

    The food is good, not necessarily great. The kitchen in this place is too small for the number of diners they try to accommodate. I would go back, just not on a busy weekend night. Read more
