Not your mother's oatmeal! This place is great for a quick and hearty meal before galavanting about the city. I love the oatmeal scones, muffins and their iced americano is the best around.

Love this restaurant, very hip, but not too hip, just right... They feature veggies that are grown organically on their rooftop. Very cool. Try the sea bass or the gin and tonic salmon.
