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.
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.
Hidden gem. We were in the neighborhood for an appointment and stopped here based on a friend's recommendation. So glad we did. The Caesar Wrap was unreal — clearly made with care. We're already planning our next visit.
Great salads & bowls option for the area. The Quinoa Power Bowl was the highlight, big portion and well-priced. Seating is limited so if you come at peak hours plan on takeout. I'll be back.
Mixed feelings. The Harvest Bowl was excellent and the cashier was friendly, but my side came out cold and they were out of two of the things I wanted to order. Probably worth another try, but not the experience I was hoping for.
Came here on a whim during my lunch break and I'm hooked. The Harvest 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.
