Food and atmosphere great. Service is slow as shit. Took over 10 min to even get a water. Kind of sad. Waiters would chat and avoid eye contact rather than come check on the table. Customers were literally talking to each other between tables out loud about how slow service was and how we were all waiting for even a water and still nobody acknowledged it.

This place truly is a gem in terms of aesthetics and the warmth of the staff. The environment is absolutely beautiful, and everyone I interacted with was genuinely pleasant, making the experience inviting right from the start.
However, my dining experience didn't quite match up to the promising setting. I originally ordered sweet potato pancakes, but they fell short of expectations. The texture was off-putting, and unfortunately, they were unpalatable enough that I felt compelled to send them back. Hoping to satisfy my pancake craving, I switched to the classic buttermilk pancakes, but these too were a letdown. As someone who considers themselves quite particular about pancakes, these simply did not meet the mark.
Despite the breakfast mishaps, the rest of the menu still holds potential. The sandwiches I saw looked amazing and I'm willing to give those a try on my next visit. While pancakes are off my order list for future visits, I'm optimistic about exploring other offerings that might prove more enjoyable.

Food was surprisingly good and flavorful. Service was very good, attentive and reasonably quick given packed house for Sunday brunch. Espresso martini was rich and yummy, the Turkish latte was also good, and huevos rancheros with steak was delicious. We will return. Ariel at the bar was super helpful.

This cost $18.50. That’s all I need to say. It is about a quarter cup of yogurt with canned peaches.

The Granola Bar offered an outstanding experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Maggie, our server, was kind and attentive, pacing out our drinks, appetizers, and main course with perfect timing, which made the meal feel relaxed and enjoyable. Highly recommend for great food and a welcoming atmosphere.
Really incredible service and breakfast. Highly recommend.

The purpose of this review is not to hate or harm this restaurant in any way, shape, or form. That being said, I hope you take this review as an informative review.
Atmosphere: Clean, bright, and well organized place. It is a pretty modern and comfortable restaurant.
Service: Acceptable-ish service. I called for pickup and had to repeat myself 3 times for one specific item. Surprisingly, the guy still got my order wrong for that specific item. Apparently, the Mini Turkey Club and the Turkish Latte are way too similar in sound.
Food: I ordered the Power Bowl and got(accidentally) a small Turkish Latte. I would have mentioned their mistake to them, but I was just not in the mood to deal with people at that moment. Anyway, both the Power Bowl and latte were just OKAY to be honest.
Price: I have tried many healthy dishes with really good flavors. This was not the case for the Power Bowl. The flavors did not compensate its price. Perhaps other items on their menu are worth paying for.

Great small venue to have a quiet dinner. Menu has some creativity and unique options while suggesting traditional meals. Decor and ambiance is lovely.
I am writing to express my deep disappointment with a recent incident at your restaurant. On July 15, 2024, I ordered and picked up a breakfast wrap for takeout. Upon discovering a metal screw in the food, I immediately contacted the restaurant on that day and spoke with a manager.
Due to time constraints, I requested a refund, which was promptly processed. As I was seven months pregnant at the time, this incident was particularly alarming and upsetting. I am grateful that I used a knife to cut the wrap, as it was not pre-cut, and I may not have noticed the screw otherwise.
Following the incident, my husband contacted the VP of Operations, Mr. JJ Henao, on that same day (July 15th, 2024). Both Mr. Henao and one of the owners, Julie, reached out to me via text message to express their apologies and offer to rectify the situation. Unfortunately, despite their initial outreach, I have not heard from them since.
Mr. Henao had offered my husband and me a complimentary meal, which we were unable to accept due to being away. Upon our return, I attempted to follow up with Mr. Henao on August 5th , 2024 to schedule a visit, but received no response.
The entire experience has left me feeling disheartened and dissatisfied. While we have previously enjoyed dining at your restaurant, I am afraid that we will be unable to return due to this unfortunate incident and the subsequent lack of follow-up.

Ex-pen-sive, but very fresh food. Almost no place to sit and actually wasn't a trash can the last time I was there, and the closest place to park is usually about a football field away. However, they can only control so much of this, and they make up for it with the food. You will pay roughly $30 for a burrito, a smoothie, and any sort of coffee, but that being said, the quality backs up the price; I just couldn't justify it everyday.

Another great dinner at The Granola Bar in Rye! Once again, really enjoyed the peach and ricotta toast, the Korean wings were excellent as were the Everything bagel dogs, and the grilled artichokes as appetizers. All of us really enjoyed our entrées as well, from my grilled salmon to the roasted chicken along with the steak Frites and burger the other couple had, everything was delicious. It's kind of hard to have room for dessert, but we shared a fudge brownie à la mode with granola and our Turkish coffees both hot and iced were excellent. Can't wait for their new restaurant to open in Woodbury New York. We will be frequent guests!

We were hopeful based on other recommendations but our service was terrible. The kid was nice but just forgot about our party of 6 adults- yes, alcoholic beverages help the bottom line but nobody came around for a refill. Food was mediocre- won't return.
