"my friend and I came here last week. we really wanted to love this place. unfortunately we were very disappointed. not only with the limited options for me, but the quality of the food and the price. I am vegan and my friend has no food restrictions. we wanted to come here because they had told them they had a vegan menu. both of us were thrilled to choose a complete menu of elements. I would consider them a restaurant with a few vegan options not vegan friendly. for beginners the vegan cheese sauce for fondue was nothing special. it was artificially comminuted cheese with oil and garlic. they served raw unzackten vegetables and cold brot for dunking. I wasn't impressed for $25. it wasn't terrible, but disappointing. as far as the entrees are concerned, I choose a garden bowl and my friend has a few different meat options they have offered. they brought me again raw unseasoned vegetables and my friend raw meat. we were then instructed to cook our food in the same boiling broth left on the table. I do not let my food contaminate with meat, I would be very sick plus that defeats the purpose of a vegan option. I had to cook everything about 6 minutes. I only have two sauces for choice. the other 12 or so were not vegan and they all went to my friend. on the other side he found this as a very stressful experience. he didn't know how long you let that meat in and take care of it. he was served raw, huh and steak. it was a very confusing process and the instructions were unclear. when we finished our meal, they brought a chocolate fountain without asking if we wanted to whisper. we didn't do it and they took it away. we were then changed by $93 for our "4 course meal". I have still had hunger after the stress of experience and my friend has lost his appetit."
