Sitting at a really cosy booth , but there are outdoor seats as well . Here's a photo of the green coconut curry (and a refreshing iced soy coffee in the bg), which is super rich and fulfilling. :)

Americanos are way better than I expected. Not sure what origin, but it had nice complexity, a slight sweetness, and a nice reddish hue, with a big teacup to showcase it! Great cup for under 3 bucks.

Miah Gilbertsen

The Zen salad was SO good! They also have great salty dogs, a light and delicious drink! Their organic , fresh, farm-to-table ingredients really make a huge difference! Anything you try will be good!

Florence Wong

AHH, stumbled upon this place and fell in LOVE! Casual hip environment w upbeat music . Great place to work solo or bring friends/family/date. Amazing iced soy mocha , corn waffle , tempeh entree. LOVE!!

Kirsten Ytterbo

From local beer to local ingredients , everything tastes fresh. Today we had the beef burger , which was moist, crispy , tangy and salty. Highly recommended for burger lovers. The Rachel was perfect too.

Cassie Utt

So many amazing options. The breakfast quesadilla or the yogurt and granola are my favorites. It can get very crowded on a weekend morning.

July Vang

The Spa Salad had quite a kick with flavors. I loved the edamame , lightly toasted tofu , and fresh organic greens ! Great service, but sure is a busy area.

Joseph Hahs

Awesome cafe in city , i love this cafe .I love that vegan items here provide. I like this place to visit at evening. its best place to spend time ...

Angela Berggren

General Tso's lettuce wraps were surprisingly excellent. From the menu description they didn't sound nearly as yummy as they were. And I love that vegan items are marked as such!

Vihang Mehta

Cute spot for breakfast/brunch. Tons of vegan/vegetarian and gluten free options . The breakfast burrito and cornmeal pancake were amazing.

Jeff MacDonald

This place is amazing! Protip: If you are ordering before 5pm, goto the counter, order, then walk to the right and get your drink from the barista counter, then walk to sit down with your signage.

Demetrius Bagley

Offers "vegan cheese board special featuring The Herbivorous Butcher dill havarti , brie , smoked gouda served with our house-made sesame crackers & pear craisin chutney "

Haeyoon Chang

I always get their pesto pasta with shrimp . For $11 it's a great deal and the portion is perfect. Comes with good bread on the side to soak up the extra pesto . Always sit out on the sidewalk.

Dave Almighty

French toast & bacon . And if you're having French toast , should have a cup of their French roast coffee , right?

Stephanie Ditirro

Love all of the gluten free and vegan options . Portions are generous, service is fantastic.

Katie Jo Kohls

Best brunch in the Twin Cities . If you are with more than yourself (2+) get the loaded hashbrowns as a dish to share. I recommend the yogurt parfait or the quesadilla .

K-la Vosper

Miso salmon . Order it. It is the best. Also the smoked salmon croissant is a great backup as well . But I am a bit biased cuz I love salmon , and this restaurant does it great! Chill spot too.

Joan Smith

Bustling breakfasts and lunches are great here, but then mood changes in evening for table service vibe-- come back for romantic dinners , great wine list and atmosphere (reservation advised)

Simone Skraba

Excellent, fresh food for all meals. Went for dinner and the service was terrible - slow and inattentive. Though this won't keep me from returning for the great food and $5 glasses of wine on Mondays.

Devan Miliner

Everything is awesome here I loved their crème brûlée tart ! It was amazing. Only thing is that parking isn't great

Joel Ramirez

Had the green curry which was phenomenal. Easily 2 portions. My gf had sirloin salad which was very good as well .

July Vang

The chocolate Rose cake was my first vegan bakery . Texture was very different, but quite tasty. A little too sweet, but very cute decor.

Derrick Deese

Salmon and eggs are phenomenal. Highly recommend. The sunday afternoon brunch crowd dies down around 2pm.. May have better luck finding indoor seating then.

July Vang

The turkey bacon croissant was delicious!!!! I loved it, but not so much of the fire coleslaw . Not a fan of coleslaw .

Allie Morris

The egg and bacon croissant sandwich was delish and the interior was gorgeous

Don't be scared by any line out the front door. It moves quickly and you won't want to miss out.

Alex Nyman Stalberger

I'm never disappointed. Ask to sit outside on their back patio for a gorgeous dining experience away from uptown traffic.

Chris Gallaty

They have baked goods that are vegan *and* gluten-free. All clearly marked!

Claire Ellen

Best place to take people with food allergies In the city the new bar next door is good too

Phenomenal service , daily omelet , and Miel latte ! I'll drive 15 min out of my way to enjoy this place.

Mark Fetzko

Vegan pancakes and baked goods are great! Just need vegan French toast .

Melody

My favorite wild rice soup of all time -- a must have MN staple!

Cole Kennedy

The Huevos Rancheros were awesome, but maybe ask them to take it easy on the chipotle sour cream .

Phillip Wood

The space is great - tall ceilings, good wifi , up-beat music . Bring a book .

Ambience, interesting food, and outdoor cafe are amazing g!

The mussels for dinner here are rediculously good! I have been known to luck the bowl....

Dee BoomBoom

In the summer the outdoor seating is the way to go. Very coveted but worth the wait.

Stephen Koontz

Several varieties of croissants . Lox croissant is not an official option but they'll still make it for you.

Lily

Delicious food and very environmentally conscious. Reminds me of Portlandia.
