I walked in today after several failed attempts at ordering a large office lunch. I was met with a line to the door. I went up to the register (after waiting for a little bit) & started explaining that I had called & emailed the store with my order after several attempts at ordering online. The girls could sense the anxiety and tension in my voice, so they got their manager who told me the best thing I could do was get in line because the online ordering feature was down. I expressed that I could not read off everyone's individual order and that it would be best to look at the pictures I emailed of the order. The manager went above and beyond. She stepped on the line with printed pictures of the orders. I got 15 orders in less than 20 minutes. I am so grateful, happy and IMPRESSED with the team that was on tonight. They worked as a team, communicated, double checked their work all while having a smile on their face and serving other customers.
I hope this review gets to them so they know how appreciative I am that they saved me at my job, by going above and beyond at theirs. Thank you.

First visit there. I just got a mango smoothie, but everything looked so good, I'll be back. The lady in line before even complemented a staff for her service and friendless.

Food was amazing and service was even better. Liz served me and was so friendly.

Usually good food, decent portions, good service. Not today. I waited to order, very busy behind the counter, that's okay. Finally order and she starts making my bowl then stops to take the next person's order, a picky person with a lot of instructions. I wait. And wait. And wait. Still not working on my order. I finally hear her ask when someone is bringing out more sprouts. I let her know she can leave off the sprouts. By this time I'm frustrated and hungry but trying to be patient. Got the egg on it but it just sits there. I finally asked the gentleman for my food. I'm sitting in the restaurant eating while I type this review. The amount is smaller, hardly any cabbage, not much purple rice. Just want to eat and leave. Corelife please, communicate better. Taking an order then seemingly ignoring it isn't acceptable.
Update, I've been back twice more since I left this review. Both times the barbecued pork was different. It was still good but it didn't really taste barbecued and this last time there were big chunks that I had to break apart myself. The Korean pork Bowl has an egg on it. The young lady called out for an egg when she started preparing the bowl but apparently nobody heard her. I had to ask a young lady that came from the back if she could do the egg for my bowl which was just just about finished at that time. She went ahead and put the egg on to cook while I waited. Young ladies behind the counter seemed to be a little distracted with other things. I had to ask for the egg to be put on my bowl before it was overcooked. Seems like things are slipping a bit. I wonder if the manager is on top of things. It's a good place to eat I'm hoping things turn around.

We have been regulars since they have opened but things have slowly gone down hill. We ordered this evening for my birthday dinner and used door dash for delivery. 3 Korean BBQ bowls and a Cobb totaling nearly $60. All of the sauces were missing from the Korean BBQ bowls. We called the store and whoever answered just said we’re sorry. My wife had to drive out to the restaurant to pick up the sauce because the bowl is no good without sauce. The days of having hard workers that strive to make sure they do things correctly is gone.

I think Core Life is a great option for healthy fast food but unfortunately this specific location has a lot of issues. Items are chronically out of stock but the website lets you order them anyway. They frequently get orders wrong or forget an item (Always check your bag before you leave) The protein is also super skimpy. I'm not kidding I got 3 cubes of chicken on my wrap. I know I didn't order extra but 3 small cubes is a rip off. They always seem short staffed and over worked and I think that is probably a reason why things are not being done well. Maybe an issue with poor management and inventory control.
I used to live in a different city and go to Core Life there. They did not have these issues.

Stopped here on my lunch break last week. It was just what I needed for the day. I did build your own bowl with mescul spinach spicy chicken blue cheese tomatoes scallions and cucumber basil dressing. It was the perfect size for a quick lunch. The service was great and surprisingly busy for a rainy Wednesday afternoon. I'll be back to other menu items in the future.

Food was pretty good, staff was standoffish. Not a bad place to grab some quick food!
