Healthy meal that does not compromise taste. Came in on a Saturday afternoon after a workout with my girlfriend. She had recommended this place before and it was only right to take her word for it. As soon as you walk in, your nostrils are filled with the lovely scent of freshly baked bread. Might be because the rolled pitas are cooked right in front of you! It is a made-to-order style restaurant like chipotle but the concept is fast-casual Mediterranean food which is new, refreshing, and healthy! You start with your base; then, protein; and ultimately, your toppings. It was a bit overwhelming but if you are a first timer like me—go for a power bowl. The base was quinoa ( looks and taste like rice) We ordered the protein which was half grilled chicken and half steak. The grilled chicken and the steak were cooked to perfection. Props to the grill guy! The hummus added that deep flavor that extends your pallet if you are new to Mediterranean food but it also enriches the flavor of the bowl. Together with the onions, broccoli, and other veggies. After my long,sad, disappointing, and fallen relationship with chipotle— I finally found a fast-casual spot that is better on quality of food, healthier, and most importantly—flavorful. It was a bowl with so many components that made the bowl very dynamic and profound. It was a new experience that left me satisfied without breaking the bank at 13$ per bowl— its a must try. May consider marrying my girlfriend just for putting me onto this place! It was that GOOD! Will come back to try their rolled pitas and more of their creamy hummus! 5/5

First time dining in here and it was amazing! Jamie was the employee who serviced us, he was very kind and professional. Jamie checked on us during our meal to make sure that everything tasted good. I thought he was the manager and I was suprised that he was not. This guy deserves a promotion! Love this place! I will be back!

I am very happy with this location. Instead of writing names on the lids we asked them to draw a top hat for me and what ever they wanted for my husband. And they did it and my husband's was very sweet and positive. The down note was that a key ingredient sauce was missed on both of our bowls, so we were disappointed in missing that flavor. otherwise the food was still very delicious and happy will come back to this location.

Always love coming here when on my lunch break! I had a great time with my mom and sister for bringing them in and showing them one of my favorite spots! The food is always wonderful the portions are incredible for the price and the atmosphere is wonderful as well! I highly recommend this place if you are looking for some quick good Italian food! Jamie was also extremely friendly and he deserves a raise for his customer service!!
