  The food Spot On!!! I’m am hooked. Soooio Yummy!!!! Mordecai is perfection, knows the menu & extremely friendly. Nice addition. The owners are on site and don’t appear to be too friendly tho, that’s why I gave 4 stars not 5. I’m thinking maybe they Are a little over whelmed possibly (recently opened). They Are Lucky that Mordecai is the front person. Again Worth every penny Large portions, not too pricey & sooooooo Yummmmy❤️ Worth it.

  My mother and I came here for lunch and we got the chicken sandwich and the ,reuben we each had a half of each others sandwich—-The food is absolutely delicious. You wouldn’t know the ranch dressing was vegan on the chicken sandwich and the reuben Flavors were spot on with generous cheese, and lots of sauerkraut!! Very pleasant, lovely young lady waited on us and made recommendations. We will definitely be back to try some more sandwiches

  Edit: owner claims we did not inform the staff of the allergy when ordering. This is untrue. This entire conversation about nuts happened at the ordering counter with an employee with green hair. Also, if he is having an allergic reaction, we are going to leave immediately as the first concern is his safety, not ask for a manager. You say there are no nuts in the kitchen which is obviously not true because that’s the only thing he’s allergic to. Maybe someone was snacking on nuts in the kitchen. Who knows. Regardless this place is not allergy friendly. Review: Went here today with my boyfriend who has a nut allergy. We asked if they use any nuts in the food. They say the only things with nuts are in the pastries in the bakery or almond milk by the coffee station, both of which are separate from the kitchen. No nut ingredients in the food. Allegedly. Halfway into the chicken sandwich, his throat begins to itch. Eventually, he enters a full blown allergic reaction. Because of this reaction, we can conclude one of three things. 1) there are nuts in the chicken sandwich and the worker inaccurately told him that it was safe. 2) the fork that he used for the salad was not properly cleaned. Or 3) the kitchen (or kitchen staff) did not use proper protocols to ensure safety. If you cannot ensure food safety, you should not be open. He is 24 years old and we eat out often. This is the third time ever in his life where this has happened. Luckily, for his allergies, he is not anaphylactic. For others, they may not be so lucky. Shame on you.

  I had the breakfast sandwich and it was great. The cashier gave me great recommendations for other spots with vegan options.
