VEGAN COMFORT FOOD, ELEVATED

Every dish is homey and familiar, then elevated with unique flavors and upscale presentation. We’re taking relatable American bistro food and turning it on its head—then making it vegan!

You’ll find nutritious vegetables and grains alongside popular plant-based products like Impossible™ meat, Blackbird seitan, Violife feta, and more. But we don’t just serve you the product. Our forward-thinking chefs transform these products into new and exciting dishes.

We’ve created the ideal space for a casual and comfortable bite, and we look forward to serving you inside when restrictions are lifted in NYC. For now, order online or stop by for takeout and delivery.
