Disappointing - Edit
Very limited menu, lots of options have bread.
When I asked about their gluten free options they showed me some heavily processed bread in a piece of plastic that contains preservatives etc...
I went two times and ended up eating basically the same thing twice.
Not bad, but not filling. It was salad inside paper rice or nori paper.
The second time I added a dish, raw tacos I think. It was basically big pieces of avocados inside a salad leaf with a very greasy paste and oily vinegraite on top. It was so fatty that it was disgusting. I had to order a whole bowl of rice to go with it. Then the rice was not cooked enough. Anyway...
Juice was not tasty, had big pieces of seeds or fibers in it.
I will not go back.
Pros: Kind service
Cons: Limited menu, Strange, unbalanced dish, Poor value

Great vegan place - Edit
It deserve credit for being the only real 100% vegan place in town. As expected it's very friendly, pet friendly, nicely designed and clean.
Not a huge menu but a nice and creative one. The roll I ate was just delicious. The almond or cashew cheese and the sauce were great.
Absolutely recommended.
