"I’ve been familiar with the east side of Saint Paul and to see that this recommended place off Payne was here for me thinking.. why here? It’s a terrible area. But I will say, the vegan experience was wonderful. The server was extremely polite, knowledgeable, and when she was not sure of something, she quickly checked on it for an answer. I got a mix of things to try and did the blueberry teaser, vegan ramen, roasted cauliflower, heirloom tomato burrata salad, and for desert a dark chocolate truffle with walnut crumbles. All of these items were absolutely terrific! Each item had its own unique flavor profiles that complimented what it was prepared with. I have not been impressed with cauliflower dishes yet and this one was very tasty. It was spicy, yet savory as well. The salad, the dressing was so delicious, not that greasy oily taste you get with most non-ranch dressings. The teaser, the way it was done, and presented, the whole experience of it all was fun. It made it taste better. The ramen was a very tasty dish that brought me to a scrumptious zone of wtf. VERY good!! The tofu was a bit salty, but I was into it because I felt it took the edge off some of the spice. To me, it worked really well. The staff really took the time to present themselves with the utmost professionalism while keeping the hospitality feel up top as well. It was great. They just have the crappy area to compete with. While we were eating, we saw a guy get out of his car and walk to the middle of the street and pull his [censored] and testicles out to itch them. It was funny, but I can see how this would affect business on top of the location. Even with that I WOULD STILL GO BACK. It was so very very yummy. Oh and if you bring someone who isn’t vegan, my wife had chicken and waffles and she said they were some of the best she’s ever had."
