I was thinking it was a fast casual place, but it also had a drive through! And it was next to a real fast food restaurant. Perhaps they are just keeping up with their competition, we thought.
The plastic one-page menus are kept in a bin before you get to the register. You can figure out what you want, then go order. It's an interesting concept. Immediately the ladies behind the counter left their post and asked if we needed help. They explained the menu, told us what was vegan, and left us to decide.
You first choose if you want a stir fry, quesadilla, wrap, soup, or salad. Stir fry for us! Then, you choose your type: we chose tofu. Then, you choose your veggies and beans--we went with mushrooms, broccoli, zucchini, black beans, spinach, cabbage, and onions. You have a choice of rices, but we wanted the more expensive ones: black rice and quinoa, which were an extra $1.99 each! Then, your sauce--we went with habanero spicy one sauce. And, lastly, your toppings like scallions, cilantro, and garlic.
We went to seat ourselves in the large dining room. It is simple with black tables and brown chairs. Strings of lights hang from the ceiling and fun signs that state things like "Drooling not permitted, but understandable."
We really weren't expecting much, but, we ended up impressed. They brought it out and it was huge (glad we decided to share it!). It looked and tasted amazing. The black rice and quinoa with the veggies and tofu topped with that habanero sauce was awesome.
They came over once to ask if everything was good. So good! I love this place! The service is great (even though there is no table service), the prices reasonable, the food fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere is nice. Recommended!
