| - Love all the vegetarian and vegan options here! It also has a really nice, cozy but chic ambiance. First off, I really liked that I was seated very quickly (made a reservation for 5:30pm). Since it was fairly empty at the time, I could choose the table I wanted.
I ordered the lotus bowl with tofu ($15) and replaced the rice with veggies (1.50 extra). There were snow peas, bell peppers, bok choy, mushrooms, onions, lotus root and a lot of delicious sauce at the bottom. I really liked this dish, it was flavorful, and the chili sauce really complemented the sauce! I also felt quite healthy eating this which was a plus! It was brought our fairly quickly after I ordered and piping hot. The only qualm I had was that it was a bit too oily for my liking.
They have rotating desserts which I thought was quite neat. Today they had this chocolate mousse and a raspberry macaron. I ordered the macaron ($9). It was a bit expensive for what it was, a single large raspberry macaron with chocolate sauce, coconut flakes and a creamy whip cream center between the 2 cookies. It was really good and fresh, but again, not really worth $9 (note: my favorite macarons come from Laduree in Paris, and they're only 2.25 pounds each).
Overall, it was good but not amazing. Great service though!
