Great food and great service. We especially enjoyed the grilled octopus, hummus with beets, and fried zucchini and eggplant. The favorite main was the halibut

This pleasant and welcoming restaurant has been a favorite of ours since it opened. Food is always tasty and interesting. Drinks are excellent: booze, coffee and hand-squeezed juices. Everyone who has ever waited on us has been lovely! Love that it is locally-sourced organic food. Decor is very natural. Chairs are comfortable and tables not jammed together. We think you'll like it!
