"ELIXIRis much more than a small restaurant, tea salon and elixir bar. WE BELIEVE food that is consciously prepared with love, care, and positivity, is infused with those qualities... WE ENCOURAGE EVERYONE to take a moment to benefit from ELIXIR’S calm and nurturing environment, while enjoying the beautifully presented, delicious foods we offer. WHEN WE TAKE TIME to care for ourselves, we have more to give to our work, our families and our friends, and to all of our other endeavors. ELIXIR’S FOOD is 100% organic (and vegan), as the use of chemicals in growing and producing food adversely effects every aspect of life, from water, air, and soil to wildlife, farmers, and consumers."
