"This was a good breakfast spot! I had a bagel with avocado and mushrooms. My partner had the green enchiladas. The food was delicious. The staff was attentive and friendly. May be worth it to reserve ahead of time because it gets crowded."
Miguel Venegas
"The only good thing is the place atmosphere, it is a really nice place, whether inside their rooms or in their full of plants patio. But there are several things not good at all. First one: They have an access control chain at the door, but no one is there to welcome you and let you in, so I had to wait for while until I finally decided to enter on my own, find someone and ask em if they were operating. Second: The waitresses took a long time to be with me and take my order and then brought me my order kinda hostile way, also they're never aware of your needs, they can even pass by you over and over and never ask if you need anything. Third: The food I ordered was actually BAD. And up to this day I'm still sick over this.
Would I come back or recommend it? What u think?"

"Walking up there's no indication whether you should stand around or seat yourself.
Service was friendly and efficient once seated.
Ordered a chicken wrap and it was awful - taste was mediocre and the wrap was sloppily made.
I don't leave bad reviews often but I would not suggest coming here - far far better options all over the area just pick one."

My Favorite Food Town: Queretaro, Mexico
It turned out to be a real gem; although not properly a vegan restaurant, its long menu that would make anybody happy. They have a fixed menu, which changes every week, and it includes vegan, vegetarian and omni-eater options.
