    Buzzing downtown restaurant on a Saturday evening; good enough for people to wait more than half an hour for a table. Absolutely amazing plant-based menu that tastes better than the dishes with meat and dairy. Will go back again very soon

    Very cool place. Lots of history. I had a curry which I thought could be used a little bit more sauce but everyone in my party said their food was very good.

    Food was nothing to write home about. We showed up with 2 more people than on our reservation. The hostess seemed put out by that, even though there was lots of empty tables. Also put us at a table for 4 when there was 5 of us and then seemed upset when we were in the aisle. They could have put us at a better table.
