Great wait staff
4 Star Rating: Recommended

01/28/2008 Posted by nycdino

If you want bland, "well everything is great," pollyana-type waiters, this is not the place for you. The wait staff is opinionated on what's good, and will let you know what their personal favourites are, and why. Definitely go here, if for no other reason than to get outstanding service. Meanwhile, the food is brilliant. The flavours are delicate, and the food is filling without leaving you feeling heavy. I'd give Brunch a miss, however. Half the menu is eggs, and unlike the dinner menu, vegan options are not indicated.

Pros: excellent service, good food, great drinks

Cons: bit pricey, front area is really dark

Editor's Review

Note-perfect vegetarian Southern cooking for a crowd of young and old East Villagers.  See the full editorial review.
