Very clean, relaxed and welcoming. There isn’t many restaurants in CT with Vegan menus that rival the regular menu yet this one accommodates all diets. Definitely the best Vegan food in CT so far.

Overall good. Good flavor and good food, just wish the chicken portion in the rise bowl was more. First time eating here with family, my 9 yr old who is a picky eater struggled with coming but after having a quesadilla, loved it. Will come back, would suggest working on chicken portion in bowls.

Fantastic tacos! They use rotisserie chicken in their tacos and it’s damn good! Fried plantains are excellent, too. Fast, friendly service in a clean space. This place is an all-around win!

I came here and asked if they could make something vegan— i wasn’t expecting them to say yes but they said they could and they have a sign posted that says they can accommodate vegan options. I was clear with my expectations asking for vegan food and making sure i made sure nothing had dairy or eggs because i understand some people don’t know the difference between vegetarian and vegan. They then brought me tacos with both cheese and aioli— i brought it to their attention and they made it again but then it had aioli on it still. I asked if the aioli was vegan and they said it was but i was skeptical after doing some research so i came back and asked if they could check the allergy information because i’m also lactose intolerant and also didn’t want to feel sick. After they checked they informed me that it was not vegan. They made it again for me and it was decent, however I wish they were able to make it correctly the first time because it defeats the purpose of not eating dairy if it’s just going to be thrown away. It also worries me for people with allergies and more serious dietary restrictions. I’m glad they were able to eventually accommodate me however staff should be more well versed in the meaning of dietary restrictions as well as communication with kitchen staff so information isn’t lost in translation.

Never been here before, but the staff was super helpful in my decision on what to order. I was gonna do all greens but decided to do half rice! I thought because they just opened that everything would be super fresh, but that wasn’t the case. Don’t get me wrong, it was delicious, but the chicken was cold. How is fresh rotisserie chicken cold?? Anyways, you get a two out of five, plus I watched my bowl sit on the counter for 5 mins before someone put a top on it and handed it to me! SMH… it was $14 dollars for that little bowl.

This place has amazing food. The tacos are fresh, loaded with flavor and the chicken is tender and juicy. The seasoning on the fries pack a ton of flavor, making them unique and craveable! Service is fast and friendly and they bring the food to your table. Absolutely can’t wait to go back!

These guys catered a big party for us and it was both prompt, easy to work with, and absolutely delicious. Really loved the garlic lime slaw. Big shout out to Bruce and Amanda for both being so wonderful to work with especially considering how clueless we were!

Overall, quite a delicious chicken place. While a bit pricey, the food is very good and highly flavorful. If they could find a way to cut cost without cutting quality then I’d probably eat here very frequently. I simply can’t afford $12-15 a day on lunch.

Food was really great and tasty. Was able to customize a vegan bowl and I 100% loved. Will definitely be trying it again next week and the week after. Great job guys. Staff was also kind enough to bring our food out to the car.

Food was incredibly delicious and fresh. Not overly heavy; well seasoned but not overly salty. We tried the taco combos, rotisserie chicken bowl, sides and house made chips. Everything was so good and superior to similar foods we’ve had in the recent past (we live in Philly and lived in NYC before that). Order was correct and ready promptly. Definitely recommend!
