If you love healthy, you will love Naked Cafe. There food is incredible and one of my personal favorites! I get the Plate of Prosperity with a spinach tortilla and I ask for a side of their ginger sauce. It's not all healthy with pancakes and french toast, beer and mimosa's. Yummy. They have vegan and gluten free options as well.
