Venue - love the design of this restaurant. However the one thing we all noted when there was how loud the music was when we got in (around 7:30, 8). The music was really good, lol but we were basically shouting at each other - wasn't expecting the club vibe there...at 8 on a Wednesday lol
Food - since i was basically the last person on earth to eat there lol my expectations were at the level of "it should taste like unicorns and rainbows".
That being said the stand out dishes for us were:
- lettuce wraps - amazing. Good hit of spice, the kimchi is fresh made and done really well. The brussel sprouts could have been crispier, but the sauce on them was really delicious.
-queso dip - solid vegan queso! Loved the textures with the black beans and tang of the pickled veg. We scooped out every last morsel.
- habibi salad - good flavours, dressing was light & fritter super crispy and light.
-chocolate terrarium - such a good blend of textures and flavours!
I wasn't a huge fan of the cauliflower tots as they were a bit more bland than i was expecting (USE THE LEMON, the acid really helps). The watermelon poke was ok. It'll never be tuna, so I'm all for dishes that just highlight the vegetables for what it is (a vegetable) instead of trying to making it emulate something it's not. But the concept was interesting.
Would definitely return again :D
