"The circus theme here is a little weird, but the food is pretty good (the fruit shakes are excellent). The menu is primarily vegetarian with dishes like seitan Reubans, tempeh burgers and a delish baked fruit granola, but carnivores will be satisfied by the few meat dishes, such as the spicy jerk chicken sandwich. The outdoor patio is fantastic – big enough to accommodate a decent crowd, but tables spaced out enough to give you privacy (and keep the noise down). The upstairs video store has a cool selection of indie and cult flicks."

"My buddy Chad and I were vegging like zombies at his pad on Sunday night after two days of solid partying, and didn’t feel like getting up for anything. But we were getting hungry and bored. No problem. My pal called Earwax Café, mumbled an order for something or other, and low and behold 20 minutes later, this delivery dude from Earwax showed up with some awesome food and a movie (“Wedding Crashers”). Perfect recovery evening for us both. The next day we went by Earwax to return the movie, and grab some more grub. Very cool place. We sat in one of the booths that were painted in crazy colors and patterns. The fresh fruit smoothie definitely hit the right spot. Real good vibe in the place."
