"Restaurante gostoso, mas às vezes deixa a desejar. Cada dia há um cardápio novo com cerca de 6 opções - inclusive veganas e vegetarianas. Há um prato principal, e você pode escolher 3 acompanhamentos. Além disso, vem uma sopa no início. No geral, a comida é bem servida. Também há bebidas (alcoólicas, sucos, água, mate..) e sobremesas (diet e normais)."

"Ótima experiência. Comida deliciosa, pedimos 2 refeições para 3 pessoas e comemos bem. Tinha opções vegetarianas, veganas e também frango e peixe. Está inclusa uma sopinha de entrada, que é sempre um complemento legal e estava muito gostosa. Com certeza voltarei."

"Uma grata surpresa! O restaurante fica em uma galeria na Carlos Vasconcelos, próximo à praça Saens Pena. Os pratos são bem servidos, saborosos e baratos. Há opções vegetarianas e vegana, mas também frango e peixe. A sopa de entrada foi cortesia, comi um prato de torta de quatro queijos com arroz, feijão e purê de batata (36,50 o grande). A fatia torta alemã também foi abundante e deliciosa (10 reais). A atendente foi uma fofa, tudo impecável. Voltarei em breve."

"Um restaurante aconchegante com alimentação que dispensa carne vermelha. Já conheço a mais de 25 anos e gosto muito. Tem uma sopa de entrada e opções de pratos com combinações possíveis. Além disso, possui a opção de prato reduzido, que é bem servido. O ambiente é calmo e está localizado numa galeria pouco movimentada. Bom atendimento e alimentação de qualidade."

"Sou cliente há muitos anos e me sinto em um "almoço de domingo". :) O restaurante fica em uma galeria na Rua Carlos Vasconcelos, com ótimas opções de comidas veganas e alimentação saudável. Há sempre uma sopinha de entrada (que muda conforme o dia) e ótimas opções de pratos (adoro o feijão, a farofa de g. de trigo, risoto de salmão, linguado e sardinha fritos)! O atendimento é ótimo! Mayara e Elis são pessoas atenciosas, alegres e muito educadas! :) Sem dúvidas, um lugar para almoçar com tranquilidade, ser bem atendido e comer comida saborosa e de qualidade. :)"
