Great options you aren’t likely to find nearby - Edit
The staff is friendly and welcoming, the atmosphere is cozy, and the food is excellent. The vegan Banh Mi was surprisingly good.
Read moreYou bus your own tables here but unlike other restaurants in the area the bussing section doesn’t clearly instruct people on what to do. This leads to everyone just piling everything into one bucket including food and it can start to smell.
The parking lot isn’t large at all and is partially shared with the pizza place next door. There’s only one handicap spot and the lot isn’t well maintained. This isn’t a knock on the restaurant but could serve as a bit of a heads up.

I had a vegan bagel and lox (made of carrot), which was delicious. My husband had a vegan sausage biscuit. They are located in West AVL, free parking and dog friendly.

Nice atmosphere, good food - Edit
I enjoy coming here for breakfast or lunch. Beautiful space with lots of plants and nice big windows. Usually I get the vegan bagel & lox or the banh mi, both are great (there are several other vegan options on the menu but I am a creature of habit). Their smoothies are tasty too.

Hit or a Miss - Edit
Its a gamble whether I'm going to like it but when I do it's good! I recommend the crunch wrap even though I can't eat it anymore bc the fat content hurts my stomach. The smoothies are tasty. Limited seating especially when planning to come as a group.

Vegan Sandwiches and sides - Edit
We enjoyed the vegan seitan binh mah and the vegan gyro. Sides were included, so we enjoyed the vegan tomato soup made with an almond milk base and a small side salad. The staff also offered up hot sauce on the side. It was all delicious and filling without being greasy or salty.

Used to be a fav - Edit
Hit or miss on different menu items. I really enjoyed the Buffalo tempeh wrap when it was offered. My husband loves the crunch wrap. Unfortunately not enough items that are both v and gf that aren’t salads for me to justify going often.

breakfast! - Edit
Skip the line around the block at Sunny Point across the street and get your brunch here. Ate here almost every morning I was in town. The crunchwrap is perfect if you had one too many the night before. The vegan lox bagel is tasty (and huge). Ginger miso salad was really good but I hoped it would be bigger for the price. Not mad about it though.

Simple, yet full of flavor - Edit
I ordered the avocado tempeh melt (without the cheese), and I was blown away by how delicious it was. The bread was fresh and perfectly toasted, and all of the flavors complimented each other wonderfully. The tanginess of the tempeh was echoed in the Vegannaise and in the tamarind slaw. The avocado was fresh and creamy. I was so pleased. The sandwich came with a side, and I ordered the tamarind slaw and was so happy with that decision. I considered the tomato soup, which was vegan, but I can’t resist fresh cabbage, especially in slaw form. To accompany this feast, I also ordered the Dr. Feel Good juice and was delighted by the spice of the ginger and overall balanced flavors of the ingredients. I wish I lived closer to this place so that I could try out other options!
