They could not have been nicer and more accommodating. The manager was super knowledgeable about the menu and gave us great recommendations. All the food was delicious and we ordered almost everything on the menu. It had a cool vibe and it’s just what river north needed.We will definitely be back. Such a fun way to spend a Saturday night out with my sister.

Delicious vegan food creatively prepared and plated. Wonderful cocktails and warm inviting ambiance. My only comment is the prices. Yes, it’s Winnetka, so there’s that, but I cook vegan every day and know that the food doesn’t cost nearly that much. The markup here is exceptional. Worth it perhaps to be able to go to a restaurant and order ANYTHING on the menu ( what a treat!), but I will not be able to go very often because of the extremely high costs.

This place is amazing! Weekends are great because you can choose from their delicious brunch options or their regular menu which has just as many delish options. Their juices are so fresh, the empanadas are heavenly—everything we ate was amazing! So worth the trip and will be back often!
