| - Ehhhh... I wanted to like it. I really did. I know that flavors and textures are going to be different when trying to recreate Omnivorous dishes with Vegan ingredients. I wasn't expecting my "meatball sub sandwich" to taste like its namesake, but I wanted it to taste good. It didn't.
The grilled cheese, that tasted great, like a savory Gruyère melt. But the texture - smooth at first - quickly became paste-like and caused a traffic jam at the back of my throat, making it difficult to swallow.
The Buffalo cauliflower was AWESOME. I suspect that every dish that isn't trying to be something it's not is probably excellent, but that's not the majority of the menu.
I have to say that I didn't complain at all, complimented the food when the server asked, because everyone around me did as well. But later on, my entire party all said something to the effect of "yeah, it was OK... But... Yeah, not going back."
I think we all wanted to believe.
Essentially this place is the culinary equivalent of the Emperor's New Clothes. I don't know if that's my fault or theirs, but not going back.
Service is awesome though.
