Nice, intricate vegetarian food. Carefully thought out menu with lots of different dishes you wouldn't find elsewhere. Upscale place. Small but we managed to get a table without a reservation.

Modern, vegetable forward vegetarian restaurant. Exceptional service. Casual brunch atmosphere and a beautiful romantic vibe at night. Many vegan dishes, and dishes that can be made vegan. Phenomenal!

Beloved by vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. You won't pout over the lack of quivering protein on your plate when you have treats like the raw zucchini tagliatelle to enjoy. [Eater 38 Member]

Brussels sprouts, breaded halloumi, and cabbage dumplings are a must. The cocktails are also on point. Favourite meal in vancouver.

My go to Saturday. Vegetarian nice, try the harvest, they change it up so it’s different depending on the season. Nice list of reds.

This is probably the best veggie food I've ever eaten. As a meat eater, one forgets they're not eating meat. You're too busy enjoying the great food to notice.

Beer battered halloumi is really excellent. We also had a wonderful raw eggplant main plate.

The battered halloumi is to die for.

The first time I had the fried halloumi my taste buds thought I was eating fried fish. Soooo good.

Amazing vegetarian restaurant, order the halloumi!

The brunch skillet is something I could wake up and eat everyday.

Thumbs up - more veggie food in the city! Thumbs down - no reservations and a tiny place means waiting on the weekend, no thanks
Josh CampbellJanuary 15, 2014
Small space but great food. Sit at the bar to avoid the wait.

The cabbage main was delicious

Always try a cocktail here. They are great.

Food was good, but worst service ever. Many empty tables, but didn’t give my pregnant friend a table until we all arrived and then kicked us out to sit another party because we were here too long (?!)

Best chocolate mousse ever!!!!
deb williamsDecember 27, 2018
Fantastic food and beautiful service

Everything is good

On the website it says that there is no reservation, but as soon I arrived they had a list of 20 people waiting that it wasn't even phisically there. Waiting for 1+hrs is not funny or enjoyable.
James BryantNovember 3, 2013
Won't take a reservation for less than 6 people. After waiting over 2 hours in the rain to seat a group of 4 we gave up. Seems they care more about having a line out the front than customer service.
A SwissJuly 8, 2017
Yeah boss they do it real good here :)
