One of my FAVORITE places to eat! Excellent, organic food with the most delicious cookies on the planet. Super fun place to eat lunch and watch the planes land at our local airport. This hidden gem has gotten notice and is a popular place for working employees to go during the week for lunch so long lines are expected, but it's fast service and worth it. Indoor/outdoor eating. Breakfast bowl or Falafel bowl are my favs.
