My husband and I had great experiences here twice in one week. We tried the Cowboy Beef and the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger the first time (both excellent) and the Mediterranean Steak bowl and The Elvis smoothie the second. Loved it all. So nice to have a healthy place to stop on the go with protein-forward meal options. They also had a great selection of to-go meals and plenty of beverage options. We will be back!

What have we been doing not coming here yet! Wow it was great food and two of the friendliest girls behind the counter. Helped us know what the process was and the gluten free options for my wife. We got the pepper jack chicken with potatoes and the cheeseburger with bacon bits. That portion was great. I ordered extra protein and it was huge. We can't wait to try some of the grab and go meals for later this week.

Ummm yum!! So happy to have a healthy food option on this side of town! Their grab and go meals are amazing & the hot bar to make custom bowls was so delicious. Staff was super friendly & welcoming. Can’t wait to go back and create another bowl and try more of their smoothie & coffee options!

Well this is the third business in this store since 2018 when we bought a house in this area. They are simple and very efficient in their work. The redo of the walls is very simple and I prefer their current decor. Their food is spot on pretty good and they have meals to go in their you serv refrigerators. This business I expect to be strong for a much longer time as they got it done right. They really don’t have much competition in their field of service.

Finally! A place to get a hot meal that's made from whole foods with a macro friendly approach. Love the concept. Been a couple times now. Last time I was in, the staff was friendly, portion size was good, and it was busy. Super cool they have prepped meals already to go in their self serve coolers.
