    Cauliflower wings
    Angie P.

    First time customer! My sister order two weeks ago and really enjoyed it so I had to try! Love the restaurant decor...small yet folks can still eat in. I'm allergic to shrimps so I was excited that I seen it on the menu just to say "hey I'm eating shrimps" They look so real inside I was scared to eat it. Wasn't bad the batter was really flavorful. With the platter I had Mac n cheese and yams. It was different but not bad. I will order the yams again. My favorite however were the cauliflower wings....sooooo gooood! I will for sure be walking there just to get those! Menu has a lot of items to choose from so if you're not satisfied or wowed with one item always go back to try others. Nice selection of desserts and smoothies as well! Food didn't take long and the lady behind the counter was really nice!

    Love their seitan preparations, very satisfying if you want steak like texture. Good greens. Tasty soup and yams. Entire menu is vegan and we'll order again. They sent us an extra taco plate by accident, so yeah, no complaints.

    Vegan Lemon Cake

    The rice & beans were flavor less and the cake tasted like cooking oil. The Jamaican Soda was very good & the tables were clean.

    Vegan Wish It Was Fish Sandwich

    It's definitely worth trying! We don't have many vegan spots on the west side of the city so it is a major plus to have them. The ribs were amazing! I had to look on their website SEVERAL times to confirm they were vegan ribs. Yams were very good too. I think they need to work a little more on the Mac and cheese (it was flavorless) and the fish but I'm excited to see where this business is going.

    The soul food here is so unreal. The ribs and Mac and cheese Worth the hour drive. You get really good food for the $ The owners are nice and know what they're doing and I think everyone should cater them for holidays you won't be disappointed l. I think they'll stick around for a long time if the community will realize they have a gem!!!

    I got the soul plate with vegan ribs, yams and spaghetti and it was very good! Also had some cauliflower wings and those were good as well.

    Came for dinner while in town. Super cute restaurant, great lighting, seating, and bar area. Our…read morewaiter was very friendly, giving us great recommendations and great to talk with. The meal started with complimentary chips and salsa. I ordered a mezcal margarita (fruta picanta) and my friend got a mango cocktail (mangasa). I liked mine a lot, my friend didn't care for the tajin rim on hers, and the waiter offered to replace it, but she stuck with it and liked it in the end. There were so many great sounding things on the menu, with gluten free and vegetarian options. We ended up splitting the calabaza- an acorn squash stuffed with mushroom risotto and also the wild mushroom tostada. The calabaza was great for winter, warm and filling. The tostada was lighter but really delicious, it was probably my favorite of the two. It was a great dinner, that I would definitely visit again if I'm back in town.

Thank goodness we had a reservation and were seated immediately. Our server Meyah was super friendly. We started with a few cocktails ..one being the Oaxacan Old Fashion..smokey and delicious. We tried their Market Ceviche which was on their Weekly Specials menu..Cured Mahi Mahi Brazilian Papaya,Tangerine Habanero sauce served with Sweet Potato chips.fresh and delicious. For our entrees we tried the Barbacoa Tacos and Blackened Fish(Tilapia) tacos. Both entrees were 21.00 for 3 tacos but no rice or beans on the side so a little pricey in my opinion. Street parking is a challenge but they do offer valet for 5.00. They have a fantastic patio that is open in the summer so we will definitely be back to enjoy a few cocktails and Latin American eats.

The bread service was fantastic. The tomato focaccia and the baguette were both excellent and I had to remind myself not to fill up on it before the main meal! LOL! We started with the calamari which was very well seasoned and clearly not the typical frozen version you often see from foodservice distributors. It tasted fresh, was crispy, and well prepared. For dinner I ordered the margherita pizza which was simple and delicious. I ended up ordering a second one to-go for my partner who couldn't make it to dinner. He also loved it - even after it sat for ~30 min or so while we chatted more, then drove home to the Maywood area. I would imagine their delivery is pretty good based on that! My mom had the rigatoni vodka with added crumbled Italian sausage which she loved, and my dad ordered the Marcelino. He loved the generous amount of seafood and how well seasoned it was. My parents are big wine drinkers and my dad was especially impressed with the wine list and the selection available. Oscar was an incredible server!! He struck the perfect balance of being attentive while still letting us enjoy a relaxed, unhurried evening. The support staff and food runners were also fantastic and very friendly, making the entire service experience feel polished! I also loved the kitchen was more open which gives you confidence in the quality and care that goes into the food. The dining space is inviting with a nice bar area and an additional room that looks perfect for busy nights or private gatherings. Overall a great restaurant that we would absolutely return to!!

The table bread didn't come out until we ordered and we waited quite a minute to order because our waiter would take a while to come back each time. The restaurant was not crowded at all so it was hard to understand what was taking so long. The first batch of bread was hard and my child's pasta pieces were also somewhat hard. It was just a bit of a mess at first. Then all of our food finally came, plates were smelling good and that helped lift our moods. My husband said that his pasta was just really spicy and the flavor itself wasn't really there. My pasta (vongole) was actually pretty good. We had to ask for Parmesan which helped with flavor for sure but I tried to have no complaints once our dishes came out. It was a nice place to try. If I was to visit again, I would be going to try their paella.

    My boyfriend and I were in the area looking for somewhere to eat, and I spotted this place online…read moreand it really piqued our interest. We were previously considering Italian food but so glad we chose this place for dinner because it was soooo yummy and so cute. I absolutely would be back to try the rest of their menu (especially their wide range of Kanom Thai or Thai desserts). They also serve Japanese food upstairs and that did look yummy although we stuck to the Thai menu. The staff was great. Everything was good - we got cherry blossom/sakura flavored sake, roti mataba as an appetizer, and for entrees, the habrae empire and Khao Kang Karee Chicken. Everything we got was good and worth trying, but I definitely loved the roti mataba and would order that again. Staff was also great. Cute for a date and also delicious.

This restaurant is a combination of Thai and a Japanese izakaya. We ordered the chicken skin, pad Thai, basil chicken stir fry, tom yum, and mango sticky rice. The chicken skin and the basil chicken came out first and they were amazing! The sweet dipping sauce with the chicken skin really pulls it together. We got level 2 spicy (out of 5) for the basil chicken and it did not have a single kick of spice but it was still very yummy and flavorful. As for the other entrees, we were very disappointed. The pad Thai tasted like BBQ sauce rather than pad Thai. The seasoning was very off putting. The tom yum was good but more on the sweeter side with my friends and I were not fond of. For dessert we got mango sticky rice. The sticky rice was warm and soft, and the mangoes were sweet and tart! Great combination of both especially with the coconut.
