Open for lunch. Great vegetarian restaurant. Family friendly. They serve fast and big, which is great if you're on a time schedule and hungry. They have a lunch buffet special, or you can order a la carte, and they also have the BEST smoothies in the world, made with their freshly squeezed coconut milk. I can die happy after one of their sesame almond horchata.
