Great lunch - Edit
The vegan items are clearly marked on the menu. We had the Beet Hummus Plate, the Non Mi Salad with tempeh, and the Pesto Tofu Scramble. All were delicious, especially the beet hummus because it is an improvement over the plain hummus you get at most restaurants. The accompanying pita chips were fantastic! They give you the option of adding tempeh to anything on the menu, which is nice because the tempeh is delicious.
Read moreUpdate: they’ve added a new Fried Mushroom sandwich to the menu that can be made vegan upon request. It was OUTSTANDING.

Delicious family style vegan meal! - Edit
Takeout options are limited these days but thanks to Melo Velo, my birthday was saved! I was introduced to the family style meal via a vegan group. There were two vegan options for the entree and three vegan options for the two included sides. We added on the extra side so we could try them all! The risotto was underdone but flavor was good. Really loved the loaded sweet potatoes! Fast, free delivery and it was affordable to begin with! This place has definitely made its way onto our go to list! Can't wait to try the vegan chocolate peanut butter cheesecake!

Okay - Edit
Went with 3 non-vegans who all thoroughly enjoyed their burgers. My Bahn Mi sandwich was okay leaning towards good. The seitan was packed in the sandwich in large cubic shapes and was slipping out of the bottom. It had quite a few Jalopena peppers. 3 or 4 vegan options clearly marked on the menu.

Awesome atmosphere, friendly staff, good food - Edit
I absolutely love the interior decorating and the thought that went into the design of the cafe. The menu has clearly labeled vegan options and the staff is very friendly. While the food is good (and prepared to order using local ingredients when possible), I have found the consistency in the kitchen to be lacking. Each time I've returned and ordered the same dish that I've had on a previous visit, it tastes different and generally the texture is different, too. Tonight I ordered the Mandarin Orange Crispy Glazed Tofu. The crispy was right on the edge of too much (any more and it would have tasted burnt) and the bok choy listed on the menu as part of the dish was substituted for broccoli without the staff saying anything before the entree came out. It was still good, but it's a little disheartening to know that something you really enjoyed (as I enjoyed this dish in June 2019) might not be as good the next time you come back. This has happened to me with multiple dishes on multiple visits since the café opened.

An option under each category - Edit
They've got some solid options, at least one item listed as vegan in each category (all day breakfast, app, salad, sandwich, entree), plus they will substitute a vegan aioli, tofu, and tempeh at no extra charge. Cool vibe, nice bar and nice outdoor patio for dining in the warmer months.
Read morePros: all day tofu scramble

Constant pleasant surprise - Edit
Every time I go and try a different menu item, I’m continuously more impressed with the quality and the flavors. And then they added the Sunday Brunch menu. Especially their hollandaise sauce. Extremely well done!
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, Constantly looking for improvement , Great atmosphere
Cons: I wish the Butternut Squash Mac&cheese was vegan
