January 15, 2020 - ESL is the cutest little hidden gem! Tucked away in an unassuming shopping center is a lovely, tiny, inclusive space with a small menu of vegan and gluten free meals and snacks, including the Impossible Burger and at least 3 varieties of avocado toast, almost everything locally and regionally sourced. The owner is super sweet and usually present, and she keeps the place spotless and charming. The patio is unexpectedly neat, set up along a corridor with a garden and lots of eccentric decoration. If you’re looking for an unpretentious, progressive spot to grab breakfast, lunch, or a smoothie, don’t miss this one! Sam Spaulding
December 31, 2019 Very great place c: Blake was super sweet !
Cozy as heck 💛 Mayte Martinez
December 21, 2019 The first bad experience we have had here. My mom’s tomato soup looked like marinara sauce. My daughter and I had the bean soup and the beans were not cooked but we had ordered the lentil soup. It seemed the staff was having hard time at lunch. We had ordered the curry lentil soup and all he could say it was labeled as that but it was the bean soup. Mandy Kaye Solano
