Lisa B.: The Kale salad is delicious & the best is the pizza. Goat cheese, squash, spinach, hazelnuts ... What else can I say :)
GNTLMN: Nostrana's sister restaurant. Great neopolitan pizza. The kale salad is killer as are the arancini risotto balls.
CITY GRIT: The Kale Salad, Bianca Pizza, and the Pineapple Trainwreck are a trifecta of fantastic!

Jennifer Childs: Didn't think I'd ever be able to order mac & cheese again since I'm GF and DF. The one here is quite yummy and even had kale in it.
Samantha: All so good! I had the polenta & vegetable hash with squash, kale, carrots, cabbage, topped with runny poached eggs and garlic & cashew cream. Green juice and the GILT smoothie with extra bee pollen!
Caroline Jack: Classic oatmeal bowl is delicious! This place is heaven for gluten-free needs

Kristina King: The Steamin' Kale with ginger miso is chronic. Big ol' helping of deliciousness.
M Lenoir B: You must try the miso kale. And the Bali bliss. And the Santa Fe chicken. The customer service rocks but I don't think they need to come around to the tables. It's nice, but I'm fine without it.
Robin Hotz: Try their beans and cauliflower mashed potatoes.....so good

Victor Nguyen-Long: I'm not a vegetarian, but could eat just the veggies and be happy, The Tuscan Calvary Kale salad is just out of this world. Don't miss the beets or carrots either.
CITY GRIT: We are obsessed with this place! Order everything you can! We’re still dreaming about the Fava Toast, Garganelli, Cavatelli, Lamb Leg, and the Broccoli.
Eater: Bartender Evan Zimmerman is behind the menu. The eight-item cocktail list features unexpected flavors like black truffle (in the "Lights Out") and campari seeped with cedar (in the "Pan-Am").
