All day restaurant - we continue to do so many beautiful things

02/15/2026

Today with great sense of gratitude we celebrate 6 years since first day of service, Feb 15th 2020 - 30 days before pandemic. Grateful for the countless of people who had made this restaurant what it is today and wonder at how far we have progressed on this 6th year anniversary. This little restaurant is about collective team with singular vision exemplifying values that helped establish this special place behind the glass doors. It is our wish that it continues to have a dynamic impact by helping shape the livelihoods of so many in our community and our team of professionals, but most of all making memories for our guests that today we call you a friend and you who you are!
To our past and present staff we couldn’t be more grateful for your commitment every day - thank you for believing in and supporting our vision from the beginning.
U-bun-tu: “a quality that includes the essential human virtues; compassion & humanity”

Ubuntu teaches us: I am because we are.

Today, hearing the IOC President speak about unity, respect, and the power of coming together reminded the world of something timeless — greatness is never built alone.

When we uplift one another, when we lead with compassion, when we move as one community, we create something bigger than ourselves. A great reminder when our little restaurant opened literally 30 days before the pandemic, community came and together we’ve made it and stronger we became, I am because we are

This is Ubuntu.
This is humanity at its best.

Together we rise. 🌍

Let the Games begin. 🏅🔥
