They aren't too into the internet, but they do enjoy the business. It's a bit small so there may be a wait some days during the prime dinner hours. It seats 20 people indoors and a few outside at 2-tops. They offer a variety of beverages, snacks and other to-go items. They also offer cooking classes. The black bean burger is made from scratch and it is quite good, if just a bit bland. Adding hummus to it though is a good option. The veggies and bread that come with it are quality. The purple cabbage has be sauteed I guess and was essentially flavorless. The wraps are large, and nicely grilled. The location is a bit out of the way, which is unfortunate for them, and is tucked away in a nondescript strip mall. Still, supporting this family owned and operated business is an all around good experience.

I will willingly go out of my way for a decent vegetarian restaurant, but not when they have…read morequestionable business practices. We drove about a half hour to get to this location, spent a few minutes perusing the menu, then ordered. That's when we were informed that they don't accept credit cards. We literally had no cash (well, I think I might have had $1.00), so the cashier explained their 'ATM option'. He said we could run it on our credit card, so my husband attempted to do this. You still needed to punch in a PIN, and we had no clue what our PIN was because we never use our credit card this way. My husband asked the cashier what he should punch in, and the cashier rather condescendingly responded that even credit cards have PINs. So, we voided that transaction and pulled out our debit card. Mind you there is a $2.00 fee for any transaction, and you have to withdraw a rounded amount like $20 or $10 and then the cashier gives you change. Other commenters seem to feel similarly - accepting credit cards and their associated fees is a necessary cost of doing business; passing this cost on to your customers with this mandatory $2 fee (unless you have cash) is unacceptable. I will not return. Besides the shady ATM fees, the water was served lukewarm in plastic cups with no ice. There is a limited eat-in area with about six tables. One wall of the restaurant is devoted to displaying antiques. The food itself was just okay. My husband had the Vegetarian Philly, which comes with Tofurkey deli slices. I had the Garlic & Herb Tofu Spread, which was a sandwich with tangy, crumbled tofu.

Although I like the Buddha bowl, thought I'd try the Northstar burger and chicken avocado sandwich. Today was a particularly warm day for March so they had the windows open which created a nice breeze. The line took a bit of time to get to the front but the staff was extremely nice and was able to make substitutions. There a lot of seating so whether you are a party of 1 or 8 there's plenty of areas to eat. The food took about 30 minutes to arrive with the kitchen backed up. There's a self serve water station so we relaxed and took in the ambiance. There's food emphasizes fresh ingredients and the burger and chicken sandwich did not disappoint. The burger is vegetarian friendly and comes with a good portion of kale slaw. The chicken sandwich was stacked tall and super filling. Would recommend to try!

They do serve non Indian food as well. Prices are pretty good. The location is wide open and a little minimalist but the cushions were comfortable and the music lovely.

I'm wimpy so Vada Pav was too spicy for me but everything I tried was made from very fresh food and if you like spicier stuff it would be worth trying. The Aloo Mutter Butter Sandwich grew on me.

Last but not least I tried Dabeli, which is good and very different from food I'd normally eat, with a combo of potato, pomegranate and peanuts. This food may not be new to others but for me it was unique and different to try and I definitely enjoyed it!

It was one of the best that I've had in a while. Very strong but delicious. The Korean Cheesesteak had distinct flavor and was delicious. The Whiskey Salmon was sweet and flaky which we love and we requested loaded potatoes which was a nice touch. However, we believe the stars of the show were the appetizers of choice which were Miguel's Queso Dip with ground beef and a bowl of Chicken Tortilla soup - neither of these are pictured but take my word for it...the BEST! Overall we enjoyed dinner but will say that our server was very dry and lacked personality. It appeared as if he was ready to leave for the day lol! But we didn't allow it to ruin our time. His problem, not ours. I think we will return when we visit again!

It's a good combo of good ingredients, and you can spice it up with a hot sauce or any of the other options on the table outside. There are benches nearby where you can perch and enjoy your bowl. Four stars because I was hungry sooner than I thought I would be - it's tasty and filling at the time, but burned off too fast. Maybe not their fault but I'd like more protein. (concur with the note to ask for more beans and less rice... oh, and I would not call this Mexican, though it's a lot like a burrito bowl!) Easy win if you want quick, wholesome, and good.
