“Vegan restaurant—no milk or eggs in the building. Helpful labeling for gluten allergies. Peanuts and some tree nuts present in the back so emphasize cleaning to avoid cross contamination. Mostly soy-based dairy alternatives. Highly recommend the buffalo wings, the samosas, any of the burgers and highly HIGHLY recommend the tsoynami soft serve soy ice cream!”

I do always make sure to ask about cross contamination as they do not make all products in house so it’s important to consider that if you’ve got allergies. My go to order is the pancakes, cookie dough to be exact. Also, you need the mozzarella sticks.”
