Delightful

Small place right in the heart of the city. Excellent people watching if you get a window seat. Good vege options and interesting combinations. Can be limited in gluten free veg options depending on the season. Never disappointed here, except when it's so busy we can only squeeze in at the bar. But that has some charm.

Pros: Buzzing atmosphere, Interesting veg combinations , Cocktail menu

Cons: Table tetris with lots of plates, Really popular, need to book ahead

Imaginative, gourmet, tasty veg and vegan dishes, and very good service

By my count, there were 23 vegetarian items on the menu (February 2023), with one to seven selections in each course category but one. Only three were marked as vegan, but some of the others may be converted to vegan on request. We had both vegan entrées — the fresh tomato, seed pesto, artichoke, olive, chili pizzetta and the chickpea-cauliflower purée romesco. Both were outstanding in flavor, preparation, presentation, and serving size. For dessert, we shared the vegetarian dark chocolate salami, which was sublime. The atmosphere is pleasant and the service very good. The beer selection was limited but adequate, representing two local craft breweries. A bit pricy but worth it for a special night out. The only shortcoming was that we were seated near the door on a cool evening and got a chill each time anyone came in or left. Having thought to wear sweatshirts made that a very minor inconvenience.

Pros: Really tasty vegan food with good portions, Good service, Pleasant atmosphere

Love this restaurant!

Dishes that can be made vegan are clearly marked on the menu, and staff are knowledgeable and can tell you other dishes that can also be customised to be made vegan. All the food I had was delicious!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Friendly staff
