The food is basically healthy and the menu is mostly consists of multi grain sandwiches, lean protein, and tasty zesty salads filled with organic indredients and light dressings. If you are looking to go eat some warm comfort food, this place is not the place to go. It is located in the trendy town of Pacific Palisades and is great for a Sunday brunch after a great workout from the santa monica mountains or the nearby beach. There is plenty of seating but if you want to eat there on the weekends for lunch, plan on waiting for at least twenty minites or so because this trendy cafe gets pretty busy.
