• Fabulous Vegan Soul Food

I discovered this hidden little gem in Elmira about 8 months ago and I am so grateful that I did! The food is all so delicious and the staff is very friendly, especially the owner, Pam. She remembers who I am every time I call and even remembers my favorite side of bread that I love. If you are ever in the area (whether you live here or are visiting) you MUST stop by this restaurant. Vegan, vegetarian or just a fan of soul-food, it does not matter, you will love this place. Everything is home-cooked and made to order for each individual customer and the staff is light because the restaurant is small so there is a bit of a wait time but I promise you that if you are a fan of any of the 3 above mentioned things, you will think that the wait is well worth it. Delicious food served by a sweet woman with a heart of gold and the intention of providing us with healthy comfort foods. I'd suggest a dish to try but honestly I've tried several and cannot think of one complaint to make of any of them. They are all great, from the basic "chicken" sandwich to the lasagna, just superb!! If you have been to the Ithaca vegan restaurant (I do think it is delicious as well!) you know that a typical $12 vegan lasagna is just that, the lasagna! But at Geka's for $12 you get the lasagna, TWO sides, a bread AND a salad!! I don't mean to ramble but I really cannot say enough about the good food and the great prices. You get so much for your money. So be sure to check it out next time you are near Elmira! Call ahead and ask for take out if you don't want to dine in!
