    I had the Chinese salad. The lettuce was brown and it was very salty. Not what I expect from a “healthy “ restaurant

    Thank you for your feedback, Denise. We apologize for the issues with the Chinese salad and will work on improving its quality.

    Nice restaurant with plenty of vegan/vegetarian options. Food is fresh and (for the most part) healthy. Service was terrific. All in all a very nice choice for vegetarian dishes and wholesome, healthy food.
