“This honestly seems to be the worst store ever. The drive thru never seems open and a mess inside the store. it's better to make the drive to Panera at UTC or find something else to eat.“

“Fresh delicious food, low prices. If you find the bowls too pricey, you can go on the app and order a la carte items, sides are $2.75-4.75 each and Protein a la carte main options start at $5.75 mushrooms $5.80-7.50 for the chicken ,up to $9 for their grass fed steak . Salmon at $10.25
Lots of vegan and vegetarian options the mushrooms are amazing and most sides are gluten free and dairy free the Mac and cheese sadly is not.
But it's better than Panera their cheddar Mac is $10.49 now! compared to naked farmer at just $4.75! it's my hubby's new favorite treat he's been craving their mac n cheese since he first tried it.“

“First time I went there and I had one of the best experiences I’ve ever had going to a restaurant for the first time. I told Maryetta the manager that it was my first time, and she was very helpful in showing me the different options and letting me try samples, as I hadn’t been there before. The food was absolutely delicious, very fresh, and a great value as well. I will definitely be coming back! If you’re thinking about trying this place out, just do yourself a favor and do it!“

“Love the music!!! Great mix of tunes and everybody was friendly, our server was April and she was a complete pro and a seasoned vet. My drinks stayed full and she was on point in every way possible, that being said the back of the house needs to tighten with the salad bar. I mean heavens to Betsy you got one job and I paid for a tomato so I want freaking tomato, and don’t give me the “We’re short staffed!” horse puckey either…..DO BETTER!“

“We have ordered delivery numerous times. The food is extraordinarily good. Last time was night before Thanksgiving as we had guests and didn’t want to tramp around finding somewhere with room for 6 of us immediately. EVERYONE raved about their meals. We ordered lamb pitas, lamb wraps, greek chicken skewer plate, gyro Greek salads. Everything was delicious. And it came fast. Can’t say how pleased we were with everything.“

“Met up with my lifelong best friend here on Friday, 7/25/25, after not seeing each other in a few years. Both of our first time here. We both ordered acai bowls. The portions were plentiful.We both had a small bowl and had a few bites left! SUPER DELICIOUS AND SO FRESH!! We were very surprised how good it was!!! We hung out on the couch and chatted for an hour, unbothered! Very quiet place. The cashier was polite, informative, helpful and accommodating. Not sure why they don't have a MUCH BETTER score. Door dash reviews shouldn't be on here!!“
