Next to the boardwalk, this cozy gallery-cafe has plenty of vegetarian and vegan options: soba-noodle salad, a scallion-aioli 'burger' and butternut-squash ravioli. Meat eaters can choose from the likes of lamb skewers and pulled-pork tacos. Portions are small, but the flavors are there. Try for a seat on the patio – you'll be treated to views of Tommy Thompson Park.
