I've been wanting to stop by this place and just happened across it on a quick mall run. I had the beach party cocktail, truffle honey and pear flatbread, and vegan double cheeseburger. To start, the drink was nice and creamy. Slightly reminded me of a piña colada on ice. Though the pieces of nutmeg were a little too big in the drink. The flatbread had potential, but there was hardly any goat cheese and completely forgot it had truffle. The truffle flavor did not come through. It was also smaller than expected and too crispy. Not worth $13. The burger was probably the best part. It was a nice blend of tangy and spicy, the beets and walnuts in the patty were perfectly seasoned too. The lettuce and tomato added a nice freshness to the medley. The patty held together pretty well, but I did need a fork and knife. I had it with salad and sweet potatoe hash. The kale salad was slightly citrusy, which was a beautiful balance. I have to say the patty could have been either too tangy and/or salty for my taste. Lastly, the squash pie was deliciously creamy and served with a coconut whipped topping. It was sweet potato pie like, but may have had a tad too much cinnamon and nutmeg. The only thing I could have done without was the flatbread. It was disappointing. Aside from staff were nice and place was beautiful.
