Delicious!! The food was beyond my expectations, and the drink!! If I wasn't by myself I would've had 4. My host was so nice and helped me with my gluten/dairy free dietary restrictions. The atmosphere was also a nice touch. Quiet but not too quiet with the music in the background. Will definitely come back here when I'm in New Orleans again!!

Great meal! Being vegan, you never know how good the meal will be this one dies not disappoint from drinks to appetizers to meal and dessert. All were top notch. Loved the Vegan Ceviche, Kottu Roti. My friend had a special with 3 kinds of fish. I also loved the vegan espresso cake with sherbet. The atmosphere was pleasant and service good.

This place is amazing. The food is amazing. The service is amazing. The atmosphere is amazing. I want to come back and try literally everything on the menu. I got the kottu as an appetizer, and the waitress recommended the raw menu. I got the tuna poke off of that, which is way out of my comfort zone, but ooooh boy am I happy with it! I can't wait to come back!

Gonna make this review short and sweet. The place is kind of a healthy hippy vibe type spot, with delicious food that points to healthy but isn't really that healthy. The ingredients were great, menu is exceptional, and food was very flavorful...
