    Service is slow but the food is delicious. More mexican than Asian Good luck finding parking. Just use the public lots.

    Sage sausage (side dish), coconut french toast and chorizo scramble are among the best lunch items in all PB. Oh, and mimosas are fantastic. Great spot for a date or simply to meet up with a friends

    Really great vegan options. The staff totally respected my request for whole food plant options and made it simple for me. The meal was really nice.

    Awesome menu. Healthy and fresh choices!! Loved the Buddha bowl, carnitas plantains, chopped salad, and lettuce wraps. Kids LOVED the breakfast.

    Love it for breakfast. Very innovative menu. Dragon potatoes, rosemary plate or soyrizo scramble are my predictables. Consistently slow service.

    Unless you go at 8am on the weekends expect to wait a VERY long time for your food...their tofu is the best in town

    This place is amazing for breakfast (probably for lunch and dinner too). It's the predecessor of Bario Star.

    Nothing to write home about. We shared five breakfast entrees; none captured the imagination or were worth the price.
