“ I travel the world but have roots in the area. It’s often hard to find good food with interesting flavors in what is mostly a franchise-only area. Anyway this place is great. Really good food (falafel wrap was delicious) and baked goods. I can’t wait to make another visit to try more menu items. Thank you! ”
“ 1st time here, outstanding. Got lunch special 1/2 sandwich (pastrami) 1/2 soup (Borscht). Great flavors, fresh made & better than expected. Staff was very friendly & felt like part of the family as I was there. Highly recommend. ”
“ Amazing! Pulled off the road because they have excellent & diverse vegan options, was so pleasantly surprised! An adorable family-run, multi-generation spot with very kind, accommodating, and smart service, not to mention, delicious food. Highly recommend for all! The vegan breakfast scramble in a wrap & vegan baklava were simply out of this world. It was like my very own family whipped it up for me! The definition of homemade & love. Yum! ”
“ I am so happy we stopped by this place! My husband doesn’t eat pork, so it’s tough finding a breakfast spot where he feels comfortable eating most things on the menu. It was not a problem here! We had breakfast with French toast, eggs, fried potatoes, and corned beef. It was all so delicious. The only bad thing is the restaurant is three hours away from us. The lady at the counter who took our order was also pleasant. I look forward to our next visit here! ”
“ Happened across this amazing spot passing through Indiana! So glad we stopped! We had the Katz and South African sweet potato stew which was so good we got an order to go! And had Israeli salad which was very flavorful cucumber tomato salad! Would absolutely go back on our way through! We also got a loaf of sourdough bread! ”
“ I'm super surprised to find this kosher vegan (not all vegan, but enough to have a selection), outpost in terra haute! Good food. Great service. Parking. If you want kosher home cooked food, be sure to stop here!! ”
“ Absolutely love this place and the staff! My fiancee has PKU and Oy Vey staff are more than willing to whip something up that he can eat. Food, both bakery and deli, are truly worth the price. Staff are friendly and helpful, I reccomend this very highly whether you eat kosher (my fiancee and I do) or not. ”
“ PURE GEM & PURE HEART!!!! Leave your judgment of the decor at the door and just eat some amazing scratch food by Mama with her sweet daughter doing a great job to make you feel welcome. Everything was fresh, delicious and perfectly spiced. I hope the community will help them out to turn this place into a dollhouse to go along with how great the food is. We had the cookies later with coffee and they were perfect. This is a rare treat. I am from Los Angeles and know good farm food. I have supported small places like this and watched them flourish. PLEASE GIVE this place a chance. It delightfully authentic, scratch made and delicious! This needs to be on Triple D and then expand to a monster kitchen if Momma would let anyone else cook. Yummy and TY for the experience and our time together! Lastly, I would love to know where Mama gets her tomatoes. ”
