Customer Review Summary
The criticism is narrower. One reviewer who visited several times calls many items overpriced for the quality, says part of the dishes taste microwaved, and notes the cafe often looks nearly empty when passing. Another asks where the clean vegan options are. Another reviewer, by contrast, calls the prices not too pricy, and one describes the coffee as priced like a normal coffee shop.
