Empress Ima's specializes in fully vegan Ital cuisine crafted with local ingredients like oyster and lion's mane mushrooms, callalloo, and ancient grains combined in dishes such as black bean stew and pumpkin. Their Nyce Creamery serves coconut milk-based ice creams in tropical flavors including soursop and hemp, sweetened naturally with agave. The casual spot caters mainly to lunch with dishes around $10, and praises for friendly service and a welcoming vibe despite a somewhat hidden location.
