"This place is swell! Anywhere you can get a very filling burrito for less than 4 dollars is a good place. Simple, easy food that somehow always tastes perfectly seasoned. If they make a mistake on your order (which has only happened to me once, about 10 years ago), they will quickly and kindly fix it. The staff is very friendly, and it smells so good when you walk in the door. There are plenty of vegan options, and it says right on the menu what is and isn't. They're very willing to change up their dishes to fit food restrictions."

Chipotle has better quality food. You screwed my order. It's only mediocre.

Delicious burritos and tacos. Some of the best I've had. Inventive, too, with the tofu burrito. Good price.

I’ve been coming here for years, and it’s always been good. All the vegan options are tasty and decently priced. View menu

Has a few plant based items, mainly rice and beans. Price is good and staff is friendly. A step up from taco bell anyway.

We stopped here when we were in downtown Ithaca. The menu looked so good and I was excited to meet my sister-in-laws here. Total experience was just...

I don’t really like tacos but ordered the taco salad with tofu, thinking I’ll just not eat the tacos. Instead, I cleaned my plate! Best taco ever, light crispy. Lime dressing was perfect, tofu tasty. Patio seating only, half hour wait for table, worth every minute. Server was excellent food arrived quickly View menu

we started with the chips, salsa and guacamole that were great! then we had the vegan burrito plate that came with picked veggies, more guac and shiny. the food was very fresh and the portions were great. there are also many seats in the open. service was fast, accurate and friendly. updated by previous review on 2022-08-12

Vegan options in every section of the menu, with local Ithaca tofu as an option to add as well. Solid prices and fun atmosphere. Be prepared for a wait on the weekends as they're working with limited hours due to COVID-19. Would be even better if they had vegan cheese and sour cream, but alas. Still a great choice for a dinner out with friends. I got the smothered vegan burrito and it was so tasty and filling!

"My girlfriend and I decided to take a romantic getaway on the finger lakes and our drive had us passing through Ithaca, so we decided to stop for dinner. A good friend recommended this place, and admittedly I was skeptical of Italian food this far from New York City, but I trust their recommendations and decided to give it a try. I am so glad that I did. For our wine selection, our server allowed us to sample one of the wines by the glass, which tasted thin. When we described what we wanted, she came back with a reasonably priced bottle that exactly hit the deep red notes that we were looking for (see the picture for the winery vintage if interested . We started with the crostini sampler. In my opinion, the Caponata was the best, but they were all interesting to try and I was glad we got all three. As a nice touch, they cut each crostini in half so my girlfriend and I could both easily sample each one. For dinner, I had the grilled hanger steak, which came with rapini and shoestring fries. I admittedly gave an annoyingly long description of how I wanted it cooked (essentially rare+ and they nailed it. The steak was fantastic, but the accompaniments were so good that they almost stole the show. The shoestring fries’ rosemary seasoning was a fun twist and the rapini was both familiar (garlic and olive oil and excitingly different. For dessert, I had what was essentially espresso mousse with graham crackers and a glass of dessert wine. While probably the weakest course, it was still a delicious way to cap an amazing meal. The mousse required a bit more texture, but fortunately they provided graham crackers on the side (which I suggest crumbling into the mousse . I’d highly recommend checking this place out if you happen to be in the area."

"Been here three times all my life in Ithaca. The first one was with my department bestie as it was our first time hanging out together and I taught her how to use chopsticks, how cute is that? And the second time was with my bf and the third time was with an old friend with her friend who were both new students this fall. The place was super strategic as you could see it from across the Seneca street bus stop because it was located hooked and the signage was kinda readable from far away. Also, they placed a printed menu on the window so that people could easily see both menu and the ambiance of the place directly although I could hold my waves of laughter a lot as I sat twice at the table near the menu because people could be very intense when seeing the menu and they might also watch us eating a bit. The staffs were attentive and friendly but their opening hours might be the quickest place to close as they close around 8pm. Food-wise, they have a wide variety of Korean and Japanese food and some kind of fusion Asian cuisine like the name of the restaurant!! I once went with fusion raw, cooked, and deep-fried sushi rolls which were so good, and some were categorized as spicy but not that spicy for my appetite. And then I tried the Vegetable Pajun or pancake served with a sour sauce which had not much flavor but the crispiness saved the game. To be honest, not really a fan of Korean food but I did try the Jjam Bong with chicken and it turned out so flavorful and the soup was spicy which I loved. The shredded chicken was tender and scrumptious also the noodle was cooked perfectly for me. Recommended to those who want to try comfort and tasty Asian cuisine around Downtown but make sure to seal the deal before 8pm so you will still be seated !!"
