I think the portobella mushroom fajitas are absolutely delicious. The wood roasted vegetables weren't tasty though. As always, the guacamole was heavenly.

v.e.g.a.n. - Oct 2 05

This place exceeded our expectations. Our server, Ben, was extremely helpful and cheerful in answering our many questions about what is or can be made vegan. He went back to the kitchen to double check at least three times because he wanted to be sure we were taken care of. The food was good, too - unique texture and flavor combinations. The presentation was great, and the atmosphere a bit more upscale than most places we go. We did end up spending $50 dollars on dinner, but that included a great tip for our fabulous waiter and a beer for my husband.

Things that can be made vegan are:

Guacamole (ask them to omit the Worcestershire sauce)
Wood Roasted Vegetables
Jicama-Slaw
Portabella Fajita
Grilled Tofu Fajita
One of the sandwiches can be made with portabella instead
of meat, but I can't remember which one - it was the last one listed under 'sandwiches'.

We tried all of those but the sandwich - would recommend all of them. This place doesn't have a lot of vegan options, but they are happy to accommodate vegans as much as they can and the options they do have are beautifully presented and pretty good. Our server even went to double check on their black beans and came back to let us know there was 2 ounces of butter per 5 gallons - really great service. Go here if you feel like celebrating and being pampered.
