“ The food is just wow! And the staff are wonderful. We had a fun time overcoming the language barrier, a little English, a little Spanish, a lot of great food! The cats come out in the afternoon, there’s about a dozen of them, they were hanging out in their catio while we were there. Also, the location is a bit incognito, but they have signs out front inviting folks in. ”
“ Excellent VEGAN Mexican cuisine. A variety of delicious dishes, and some lovely cats to hang out with while you wait for your order. We live right around the corner, and love having an eco friendly vegan restaurant so close by. We try to remember to bring our own containers for to-go orders. The wait staff is extremely friendly and they are happy to accommodate a meal for people on a budget. I thought my wife and I were the only ones who enjoy painting rocks. This place rocks. 5 stars. ”
