Went for Monday happy hour & had a wonderful experience dining. We both had the 20$ special and were amazed by how beautiful the presentation was & the taste. I’ve never had a lentil portobello cake & it was delicious! Saved room for peanut butter pie . It was the perfect ending to a gourmet evening !
