We come here for all our birthdays and the food quality never disappoints! Ordered the Mushroom Ravioli today, but we’ve had the Paella, Pasta, and Veef plate with mashed potatoes and we want to kiss the chef every time.

An escape to a faraway place. A place where plants are the only food source, and where creativity of cuisine is necessary to survive. The air is breathable by humans and there are plenty of tasty libations. Gravity in the bathroom malfunctioned briefly but other than that, it was a very enjoyable experience. 👽 🚀 🛸

We went on a Tuesday night to celebrate a special occasion. Scottie, our server, made sure we had the most amazing service. The food was wonderful and the ambience allowed us to have a meaningful conversation. Definitely a new favorite spot when visiting San Diego.
