| - So this is what Whole Foods, Trader's Joe, and Strouts use to look like in the olden days. My friend wanted to meet there for lunch, so when I walked in, I was a tad confused about the concept, I was expecting a restaurant. The 'cafe' is to the side the store and the kitchen is in the back. I get that this is a 'cafe' inside of a natural food store so perhaps 'restaurant' personnel/ charm or temperament and skills are not necessarily available. No problem!!
Not a vegan or vegetarian myself, I settled for the mushroom burger, which was freaking amazing. We ordered from the back, per the instructions on the menu card on the table, and the food was delivered to us. The portabella mushroom was cooked to perfection and the organic potato salad, one of the side choices, was pretty awesome as well. I was expecting bland, tasteless food but I was pleasantly surprised. I would definitely go back for another try of something else.
The 'cafe' was quaint and décor was old town Vegas. It's nice to get a glimpse of what Vegas was like back in the days, you see it with the patrons that walk in, the location, and the overall feel. For the most part, staff was polite, nice and welcoming... just don't forget, you're not in a restaurant.
