    We had another lovely dinner at Twelvemonth. We love the maitake mushrooms! but these were a little cold which makes a huge difference in taste and texture. Missed the Carrot curry as it was not on the menu at this time. Love that the all the food is vegan. That being said some dishes are just okay and others are great. The Not Paella and Tamales were great. The coffee was almost lukewarm. The location is close to parking, quiet comfortable surroundings, and attentive service. Wasn't as big a hit as our last visit.

    Laura was our waitress - she was so sweet and friendly. I was celebrating my birthday tonight and she made sure to top the cheesecake dessert with a sparkly candle. She also sang happy birthday to me! :,) What already was a delicious meal was topped off with superb customer service. I will come back for sure.
