I work nearby and stop in at least twice a week. The Cobb Salad hits every time. Service is quick, the space is clean, and they take dietary requests seriously which I appreciate. Easy five stars from me.
Came here on a whim during my lunch break and I'm hooked. The Quinoa Power Bowl was easily the best version I've had this year. Friendly staff, fast service, and they actually got my order right the first time. Will be back next week.
Honestly impressed. We tried three different items between the table and the Harvest Bowl stole the show. The staff genuinely seemed to enjoy being there which makes a difference. Cannot recommend enough.
Brought the family on a Saturday and we all walked out happy. Kids loved their food, my partner ordered the Harvest Bowl and finished every bite. Prices feel fair for the portions. The dining room was a little loud but that's expected on weekends.
