Very cool vibe. Bright, clean and inviting. The food was delicious! There are many vegetarian and vegan options if that’s your preference. Lots of flavors to explore. It was hard to decide what to get because so many of the dishes looked appetizing. The self-serve area with water and condiments was well stocked and clean. Will return soon.

Delicious! Vegan and vegetarian for my mom, daughter, and me, with meat dishes for my husband 🙂 All so fresh and flavorful! Fast, friendly service. Helpful people at the counter. Love the compostable containers and utensils for takeout! Nice indoor & outdoor dining, too. Clean, open, with fresh flowers. Very nice – We’ll be back!

Wowowowowow! I was really, really impressed with the menu. We ordered an appetizer, a smoothie, and two entrees and they were all amazing. This is the kind of restaurant I know that I will be craving the food from and want to keep coming back!

This was my first visit. The food was excellent. I was very pleased. The only thing I didnt like was our drinks were forgotten. But that wouldnt stop me from going back. It was delicious and the staff is very nice. You have to visit. My office did lunch and I suggested this place. Nobody had been and they were all very happy.

I really enjoyed this place. Everything tastes so good and as the name suggests, fresh. The sweet potato nachos were my favorite, but the togarashi fries and sunny bowl were really solid too! I added chicken to my bowl and it was one of the tastiest chicken breasts I’ve ever had. Ambiance is good, with the one caveat that they’re right next to Jackson Ave so it’s pretty noisy sitting outside, but that’s obviously no fault to the restaurant. Overall I highly recommend checking this place out.

Stopped in for Cinco de Mayo and had the most amazing chicken tinga tostadas I’ve ever had, with a roja salsa that had a smoky depth and savoriness that is beyond description – it needs to be bottled and sold! The chicharrones were such an awesome combination of fresh flavor and heartiness. All of it showed masterful perfection of simplicity and complex flavors. Apparently they do mexican specials every tuesday, I will be stopping in weekly. This is the best spot I’ve been to in the entire southeast Michigan area.

I am not one who eats vegan food, ever but I absolutely love this place. The vegan nachos are perfection with so much flavor and I love to pair it with different kombuchas they have one tap. My wife orders the Mediterranean bowl which has some awesome grilling cheese and beet hummus, which adds a very colorful twist. My mother had the grilled cheese and really liked it, as well. I would highly recommend if you are looking for something new and different!
