Not the level of service we have experienced in the past. Our server was aloof and absent for long periods of time. I could see the kitchen from our table. First, the appetizer sat for several minutes before being served and was lukewarm by the time it arrived at our table. The same thing happened with our entree. It wasn’t until after the entree had been served that our server asked if everything was okay. A manager did respond and said she would speak with the chef. I clarified the problem was not the chef but the service. The food would have been great if had been served hot.

They try to be on the healthier side of food by using locally sources ingredients and choosing to air fry over traditional frying. While I give them props for trying to be healthier, the food itself was either bland, too tough, not cooked enough or generally terrible. I've eaten at plenty of places that have a variety of healthy options that were delicious, but this restaurant isn't one of them. I'd prefer to go to a completely vegan restaurant over this place. I think it tries too hard and completely misses the mark.
