Neighborhood gem. Kava bar, artsy cafe, scratch kitchen - Lightbox measures up to the best of all three categories. Gabi, the owner, curates the intimate space and impressive menu with love and attention. His hard work pays off: I can guarantee whatever you get will be delicious. I particularly like to stop by for a matcha (best in town) and a lemon bar (piece of heaven). Read less

Another absolute gem, if you want a momentary cozy getaway in a place that serves up healthy food that can free your mind, body and spirit, Lightbox Vegan café & Kava Bar accomplishes that with ease. Co-owners Gabriel Vasquez and Jennifer Hombach are to give thanks for this. Every dish is well thought out so fresh and seasoned perfectly, with discernible subtle flavors and ingredients. That will inspire every day foodies to come back and try everything on the menu. Hopefully I’ll have that chance I started with the special of the day which was a lentil chili served with fresh avocado slices, vegan sour cream, and a slice of fresh baked cornbread. A silky mildly spicy delicious broth takes chili in a different direction, i’ve never had cornbread like this it really compliments the dish. From the light bites part of the menu I ordered the jackfruit of the sea, i’ve had many vegan tuna wraps, nothing has come close to this the consistency of the jackfruit and the flavoring of it is spot on, it would be hard for anyone to tell the difference between this and real tuna, I think of the possibilities especially a tuna melt, which I used to love. I would buy this separately if possible if they sold half pound or pound containers. I need the recipe for this! Also from the light bites The Curry Vegetable Pastelillos these are air, fried handmade pies with chickpeas, celery, carrot, red onion, sweet potato, coconut milk and lime to dip, what’s better than freshly handmade nothing that I can think of. From the salad menu, I tried to Beet lox salad, A healthy portion of cucumber, tomato, red onion, capers, and carrot with tzatziki sauce, cashew herbed cream cheese, quinoa tabouli, and tahini drizzle served over spinach and Romaine, it was just so pretty to look at it. I did not want to touch it, getting into it thoughI never knew salad could be so diverse in flavors, excellent portion size and quite a value at the same time this was simply delicious. For dessert, I had a chickpea brownie. The chickpea brownie is a healthy zero guilt indulgence treat for sure, but the banana nut bread is something to write home about this I would travel across the city for, made with cinnamon, nutmeg, maple chili walnuts, topped with walnut cream, fresh berries, coconut flakes and cacao nibs, this is a fall off the wagon dessert that makes you care less about falling off the wagon! To complement all these dishes I ordered a tropical storm Super food smoothie that was so tasty it put me in such a relaxed state an hour later, it made my afternoon, 5 mile walk so pleasant, this is such a great place to go to just relax. Have a nice conversation and take you away. If only for a little while. I have nothing but love for this place. Read less
