I was there today at the height of the lunch rush. This place is busy because it is so good and reliable. And the staff were grinding - they were working so hard and efficiently, and providing great food and terrific customer service. I just want to express my gratitude and admiration for the excellent, hard working staff!!

I always eat here when I'm in town. Delicious, healthy, and fast, and a good value. I haven't had everything on the menu yet, but every thing I have had has been excellent. It's so nice to have a quick and affordable place to eat where you can actually get clean, fresh food.

Lots of great options from froyo, soups, salads, sandwiches and desserts. Everything is so fresh and the staff is friendly. I love their seasonal menu items, always something new to try but my favorite is the sabroso bowl. They are quick during lunchtime but the app makes it easy to order and pick up when I’m running behind.
