FOOD: (3 stars) I started eating here when I went 100% raw (about a year ago), so I am grateful that Karyn's was around for that. The food is okay. It is a bit on the nutty side, though, and quite…

Very good - I dined there tonite in the cafe side, and just had the salad bar ($7.99 per pound, or $12.99 for all you can eat). I really liked the Almond Pate and the Eggplant Salad. Very tasty!
