plant food

+ cook technique

+ bold flavor addiction

=

eclectic & entertaining dishes

We cook spiritedly to delight palates, and we aspire to redefine expectations for vegan restaurant food. Our menu is small so that we can remake it daily.  The food you see and smell before you was prepared by the chefs that you see in the kitchen, often in the last couple of hours before the door opens for dinner service. 

Plant is about 90% organic, often locally sourced, mostly gluten free, and vegan.  We do not use animal products.
