The Scene – Chartreuse walls, graceful palm plants and woven mats on tabletops and floor add a note of serenity to this lively, contemporary space. A long banquette hugs the far wall; parallel banquettes, each with two or three tables, angle into the center of the room. Attentive servers help with menu and wine suggestions. – – The Food – The mostly vegetarian menu, built around seasonal ingredients, is divided into three sections, moving from lighter to heavier dishes. Delectable first courses include chilled golden beets, sliced, stacked and complemented by creamy…

I had never been to a vegetarian restaurant before so I had no idea what to expect... despite the fact that I was a vegetarian for 9 years. I guess I was used to being a vegetarian in a carnivore's world. I went here for my birthday and it was fantastic. The food was great and the waiter took the time to explain what everything was as I was used to eating pasta and fruit back in my veggie days. We had this egg thing, I have no idea what it was but I kinda crave it now and then. I would definitely go back again adn I recommend it to anyone
- Pros: Can make even the biggest meat lovers go veggie
- Cons: Prices are a bit high

Our waitress was very kind, knowledgable of the wines and all the dishes and was able to explain the different ingredients in one of my dishes. I found the wine to be very good even though I'm not one who likes to drink a lot. I had the 3 course plan and then had the poached pears for dessert. I gotta say that was the best dessert I've had in a long time. Until I got home and checked the restaurant out, I never would have known it was vegetarian, so being a vegetarian was definitely a perk. Even if your not a vegetarian, there is something that you'll find on the menu that you like and if you don't, well then your taste buds need a little changing. I highly recommend trying at least once. It can be expensive so make a sporadic occassion.
- Pros: ambiance, decor, lighting, dessert, service
- Cons: parking
