I am a Vegan and found this place from google maps. This is my second time there and I will be going back over and over again because I love the food, the employees and their service, how conscience they are that I'm a vegan and the atmosphere in the restaurant. This place is now my favorite restaurant. I bought 4 tacos for less than $10 with added avocado and smoked tofu. oh hell yes!!
This establishment is in a word "Awesome". The Gazpacho special is the best I've ever had. Hearty flavorful and served with tortilla chips. Had the pulled pork burrito. Outstanding but for my taste could have had a slightly better protein to veg ratio. Was very happy to find a new very tasty local to Maine cider. Ricker Hill Mainiac Mac! Ladies keep up the excellent work.
A cool and unique name for a cool and unique little eatery in the middle of Lewiston. A musical theme to several sights, dishes, and even the name itself. The stay was pleasant, I just couldn't get a spicy flavor from the spicy chicken.
The people there are really nice and down-to-earth, it genuinely feels like a small community of its own tucked away from the rest of the city. Their food is fresh and not to mention delicious, like genuinely salivating delicious
Food was great and service was quick. Lots of vegetarian options. A little confusing upon first visit to figure out where to order. Could really use some visual signage.
A small, bistro with excellent, fresh food. Lots of gluten free options. Friendly service and good prices.
Delicious food, lots of choices, friendly waitstaff, place has great vibe, art for sale, etc. I had the “Soultrane” burrito: Spinach, cheese, pineapple, brown rice, bbq smoked tofu, black beans & salsa; it came w/tortilla chips & salsa. I also got a piece of pumpkin chocolate chip bread, yummy.
Super friendly, fresh, delicious food, cool vibe- everything you'd expect! Personally I think they should up the heat in their hot sauce but the flavor was good
