This place is... Okay. It's not bad. Just okay. A good option if you are in Third Ward and want to grab something to eat. It's just there for you to stop by. Very welcoming atmosphere, open doors and outdoor and rooftop seatingd and all. I love that about this place. It's somewhere to stop by if you just can't decide where to go.

As I said, it's very welcoming. The rooftop is very chill and beautiful. Not to much light. Even the outdoor seating on the street. Actually, this place is overall a dark place. It's open but somehow also very dark. No big white tall walls and high ceiling here.



The Kale Artichoke Dip is to die for. You must get it. You must. It's spicy a little but it's so good. You have to try it. Trust me. The Macaroni and Cheese was also very good. It comes with some magical pickled red pepper that will make it taste so much better. Aslo, the California dreamin' is a very good option even if you're not vegan. Don't forget to ask for aioli. It's really good.

As you can probably tell, although this place offers relatively small-to-okay menu, they do it well. Very well. Food here is delicious.

Server was good and fast. There was a waiting when we walked in. The hostess took my phone number and a text message was sent to me when my table was ready! Very professional and effective implantation of technology.

Well I be returning? I have no doubt. But I don't see myself getting excited to go there especially out of my way. I'll just stop by whenever I'm around. Except for that Kale Artichoke dip starter.. I might just go back for that... I initially gave this place 3 stars (it's okay) but because the food is so delicious I decided to make it 4 stars (I liked it)
