I love the Vandal's vibe! You order and pay at the counter, which automatically sets it apart from other "fine casual" places. My friend and I grabbed menus and sat at a table for a moment to browse. First we ordered coffee and beignets, and thirty minutes later we returned to the counter to put in an order for breakfast biscuits and beets. The food was familiar, yet totally out of the ordinary. All the staff are extremely welcoming, especially the owner who checked on us a few times. The delicious food, friendly staff, and cool setup make the Vandal a great place to "hang out," just like their motto says.
