We visited as a small group on a Sunday afternoon so there was a wait. Otherwise we got seated and began our dining experience. The volunteer staff struggled a bit but it was his first shift and was still in training. Our food was slow to come out, but once on the table it was absolutely delicious and beautifully plated! Before leaving we visited their herb garden outside and took some photos. It was an amazing foodie experience and I will absolutely return with others.

Love this place. Could have used a little more AC. We went for the 22nd cohort event. This restaurant is pay what you can and also offers culinary education to help folks with earning a living wage. Food is always good. They feed all guests nutritious, delicious food ensuring all have a lovely experience and feel loved and respected. Pay nothing, pay what you can, pay what you usually would or pay a little extra for a neighbor in need.

My family had brunch here yesterday. 4 people had the bacon burger and I had the chicken tagine. Both dishes were excellent. I’m pretty picky/snobby (whatever you want to call it lol) about burgers but I tried one and they are fabulous. I’d never had chicken tagine so, that was the winner and boy was it! The desserts, I loved the bread pudding. The citrus tart was too much for half of my family and the other half, it was a win for. The atmosphere outside and in was adorable. I love the concept and mission. My only qualm was the volume. There’s nothing in there to absorb the sound so it was loud. I will be coming back biweekly.

The experience was exceptional. The food was expertly prepared, delicately plated, well portioned, and delightfully full of flavor! The volunteerism of servers, chefs, and table mates (busser) made our visit fabulous! It made giving to this charitable organization more meaningful. It is a genuinely unique platform for providing a service to community.

Nothing but good things to say here. Everyone was so sweet. I came here alone and was sat at a table with other people dining by themselves. The person across from me would occasionally chat with me which was very nice. It seems like an amazing community. I got the chicken apple sandwich and it was DELICIOUS.

Today, the Lord put it on our hearts to check out this restaurant after a disastrous attempt to eat breakfast at a neighborhood cafe. We could not have had a more meaningful experience than to enjoy a delicious meal with a concept that truly touched our hearts. This “community project” left us with our hearts (and bellies) full and feeling blessed. We cannot wait to return and introduce others to this amazing concept and dining experience.

Been here twice.. kind staff, most are all volunteers. Quick disclaimer based on the establishments name: This place is here FOR THE COMMUNITY. Not your typical restaurant establishment.. they don’t put prices on the menu bc they want everyone who lives in the community to be able to come here, eat and experience the well crafted food items.. and pay out of sincere appreciation, even if that means pay just what they can. The food.. I mean it speaks for itself. Every ingredient is thoughtfully crafted and prepared. I cannot emphasize how much flavor and true attention to detail they place, enough so that the place continues to STILL Run and feed people from every living background/circumstance. The best flavor in it all is that you can taste they sincerely care.. They rotate the menu seasonally, so if there is something you want to try.. be sure to do so before the next menu drops. Yes, the policy is one dish per person but (you can guess why, dfw..) you can also add a small plate with it.. which is so kind of them to allow.. but sincerely, I can barely walk out of the place after just eating the main dish .. bc the food truly hits the spot and fills us up. If you’re looking to try good scratch made gourmet food and a warm experience this is your spot.. If you’re used to getting absolutely everything you want in life and modifying every aspect of the food craft when you walk into an establishment, leave this spot in peace, drive to Dallas and go to moxies.. these guys are out doing themselves, doing the Whole World a Major Solid .. and changing the restaurant industry for building a concept/ establishment such as this. Aside from that, doit avoir!!

Love this concept! Delicious food and the staff here is incredibly kind. Definitely make a reservation ahead of time, especially during lunch hours. They have a rotating menu; I’ve been here maybe 3-4 times and each time the food has been very quality! We all left feeling full with our individual entrees. They do not do takeout boxes so order what you know you can finish with dining in! Only one entree item per person; appetizers, drinks, and desserts available other than that! You pay what you can, maybe a little more if you have the means to. Employees are all volunteers. We loved our server Donna. Love the concept and the community aspect behind it — definitely give them your support!

What an amazing concept. I’m sure it’s replicated all over major cities. But the idea they care so much about the community to feed those less fortunate is so amazing. You pay what you can. No prices on the food. If you have nothing then it cost nothing. If you can pay $10-$50-$200. Then you pay what you can. Typical expect each meal and drink should run $20-$50 each. Don’t abuse these beautiful people. All but the chefs are volunteers and everyone is so happy to help. The food…. Outstanding.

This is the type of place that makes you appreciate what you have and makes you want to cry. The volunteers here are truly a blessing to the underserved community. My wife and myself stopped in today for a meal and were completely blown away. The quality of food that is being served and the love that is shown to the homeless is outstanding! One of my favorite parts of lunch was seeing this picture of an older man painted on the wall, and then that same man comes into the restaurant and sits in his corner (depicted in picture) of the restaurant. If you ever have the opportunity PLEASE PLEASE support this place!
