Short but sweet review: easy to find on the corner of 43rd in the Lawrenceville section of the city...and the only light colored brick building with funky art all over it. Quaint, and relaxed interior with each table top being created by different local artists (yay for supporting local!!). But, the important part: the food. As a longtime vegetarian (albeit recently eating phish and chicken...sshhh...don't tell PETA), I always dig anywhere I can eat that offers more than a boring iceberg lettuce side salad. So big props to Dan and crew at Kaleidoscope Cafe for offering several diverse salads, that can be a meal in themselves. I got the Farmhouse salad...it has beets in it. I don't eat beets. Ever. But the way they are prepared and incorporated into this salad is ridiculously yummy. So much so, that I would eat it again. There are options for meat eaters, veggie, and some things that could be made vegan. I also had a veggie stacker sandwich, with portobello and roasted red peppers. Again, my tummy smiled. My boyfriend had a chicken sandwich of some sort with avocado and bacon on it. He barely spoke while eating it as he was so engulfed by flavory goodness-to quote, he says 'it was really good.' price for lunch with appetizer, salad, and two meals was average, but supporting local artists and independent businesses is priceless. Go eat here and play with kaleidoscopes while u wait for your food. To-go orders, too. Your taste buds will dance :)
