You can order a deli sandwich to your liking and you can build your own salad at their bountiful salad bar. The salad bar is really nice and is more often than not my main reason for visiting the store. Here you can create your own unique salad with a good variety of salad makings including your basic lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers plus potato salads, fruits and a great variety of other salad toppings, vegetables and dressings. They have a good hot food bar too with various meat dishes, chicken and so forth plus pasta dishes, potatoes, vegetables and more. You'll also find some nice treats in their bakery area such as muffins and cookies. Their deli carries Boar's Head deli meats which is a very good meat company and their cheeses are excellent as well. If you're looking to buy groceries here they do carry quite a few of the essentials. They have a good sized produce area here as well for your fruits and veggies. It is a busy store but the cashiers keep the lines going at a pretty good clip. The atmosphere is nice and it's always a clean store which makes for a pleasant shopping experience. When I am passing through the area I always make it a point to stop by and see what they have to offer.

The staff, managers, server all were very nice and accommodating. Food came out fast and hot. Also had a very nice conversation with the couple next to us, who had wisdom and knowledge of some history which we could relate to. We ordered the following: - Fritto misto 3/5 for me. The garlic/lemon aioli that was loaded on the bottom of the dish was great just allows u to smear and dip everything into the plate instead of a small dip dish everyone has to share. The calamari and shrimp portion is a nice appetizer size. Crispy yes, but our portion was a bit overcooked. - spaghetti Al limone - perfectly cooked, nice chew and portion. You get 4 jumbo shrimps on the pasta plate. The lemon zest sauce was tasty! Enjoyed this! 5/5 - fennel sausage pizza 5/5 I really enjoy the way they make the pizza, crispy, good bites, fresh and served on the plate with a pair of pizza scissors so you can make your own "slices" loaded with toppings. It was a good thin style. Ample bits of fennel sausage, peppers onions and scallion fresh on top. - limoncello mascarpone cake 5/5 This was a great cap to the meal. Light, the mascarpone was refreshing, the cake was not heavy and the lemon flavor came thru like a champ! Not overly sweet which is a plus for us. Some bakeries make their cakes so sweet, that it all just tastes artificial, the slice here was yummy.

It was super cool to learn that they are Employee owned, and currently working on new restaurant concepts set to open soon. Here's what we ordered: - Shirley temple - fritto misto - fennel sausage pizza - spaghetti al limone - limoncello mascarpone cake Portion sizes were quite generous! Much bigger than what we were expecting, based on photos we looked at. We started off with the fritto misto, which included fried calamari, shrimp, & fried lemon with a lemon aioli to dip. The lemon aioli was spread all over the bottom of the dish instead of in a ramekin. We actually prefer it this way! Loved the lemon aioli and fried lemons. Calamari was not bad; slightly overcooked. On to our entrees! Their pizza is thin & very similar to a flatbread. We enjoyed this a lot! Great flavor and loved that we got to cut it ourselves. Came with a good amount of toppings. The spaghetti was made al dente & came with a creamy lime sauce. You can definitely taste the lime here! This came with 4 big shrimps. We were able to finish everything we ordered at this point... so we decided to get some dessert! We ordered the limoncello mascarpone cake to try & it was delicious! It tasted refreshing and not heavy at all. Overall, we had a great dinner here. Our server was very nice, attentive, and helpful with giving suggestions for what we should order. Checking out was also very easy. They offer QR code scan to pay through Toast, which can be scanned on your receipt bill.

I've always loved sweetgreen because of their high quality ingredients and healthiness despite…read morebeing a fast casual joint. Today I really wanted to try their newest collab, the Sweetgreen x Fishwife Tuna Niçoise Salad, and it was fantastic! Tinned fish has become trendy and Fishwife does a lovely job balancing aesthetics with great taste. This salad was the perfect balance of freshness & heartiness. The only downside was it was expensive (about $19 after tax) so it better be a damn good salad (which it was). Service-wise it's better to order pickup via the app for convenience. Oftentimes if we ask the staff for anything they seem to get annoyed.

Sweetgreen is a fast-casual spot focused on salads, warm bowls, and wraps made with fresh…read moreingredients. We walked into a bright, modern space with a clean, minimalist design that matches the brand's focus on fresh, healthy food. The layout is efficient, with the assembly line running along the counter and the dining area set up with a mix of communal tables and smaller seating. The atmosphere is casual and energetic, the kind of place that works well for a quick lunch or a grab-and-go meal, with a steady flow of customers moving through the line throughout the day. The biggest appeal is the ingredient quality and variety. Their bowls combine greens, grains, proteins, vegetables, and dressings in a way that keeps the meals from feeling repetitive. We ordered the Kale Caesar, which is one of the more popular options, and found the flavors well balanced and satisfying without feeling overly heavy. The kale held up well against the dressing, and the parmesan and croutons added enough texture to keep the bowl interesting. The seasonal bowls also offer variety, and the ability to customize ingredients means you can swap or remove certain toppings depending on your preference. The menu feels well curated, with enough options to keep repeat visits interesting. The portions are generally satisfying, especially when you add protein or extras like avocado. We noticed that the base bowls are generous on their own, but the add-ons add extra richness and make the meal feel more substantial. The pricing is a little higher compared to other fast-casual chains, but the meals usually feel more balanced and made with fresher ingredients, which justifies the cost for a healthier meal option. The produce is consistently fresh, and the preparation feels intentional rather than rushed. The ordering process is simple with both in-store and app options, though wait times can vary during busy hours. We ordered at the counter and found the line moved at a steady pace, with the staff working efficiently to keep the flow moving. The restaurant itself is usually clean and works well for a quick lunch or takeout, with the seating area staying tidy even during peak times. The staff are friendly and helpful, answering questions about the menu and offering suggestions without pressure. Sweetgreen is a reliable choice for a convenient healthy meal. It is more expensive than a typical fast-food option, but the customizable bowls, fresh ingredients, and lighter menu make it a good alternative when you want something different from the usual fast-casual offerings. The balance of flavors and the quality of the ingredients keep it as a go-to option for a meal that feels both nourishing and satisfying.

As I had come here after I had already eaten some unexceptional pastries from Toma Toma earlier, and had thrown out my very weak latte from Toma after a couple of sips, I only had a small cold brew, but it was REALLY GOOD! It certainly helped me to overcome my disappointment with my Toma Toma latte. The service was fast and friendly, and it is a very cute place. I will be sure to go to Side Door Cafe soon to try their food, and hopefully improve their rating to the 5 stars that I believe it will likely deserve.

I thought the beans were a little too tomato-saucy, and bangers (sausages) a wee bit on the salty side. The rashers (Irish bacon) and home fries were the star of this plate.

They're smart to put a CAVA in a shopping plaza considering the fast pace environment of shopping. I was shopping with my mom and aunt and we were hungry but didn't want to spend so much time of our day sitting down at a restaurant. We saw they had CAVA which ended up being a great option for speed as well as for filling us up. It was also so inexpensive! $11 for a bowl and a lemonade. I'll take it! The ingredients were very fresh and we got our food so quick since you just order down the line crafting your bowl!

I can't say enough great things about Neroli's. If you have not eaten here go - if you're looking for a nice venue for an event their private room is so pretty, bright and perfect!

During our visit, the waitress also made a comment to my wife that struck us as racially insensitive. We brushed it off at the time to avoid making things more awkward, but it was unprofessional and worth noting. The food, meanwhile, was priced higher than the quality and overall experience warranted. I'd encourage management to look into both the cleanliness and staff professionalism. As it stands, I can't recommend the restaurant based on this visit.

We waited in line for about 15 minutes just to order, only to be told it would take another 35-40 minutes to get two toasted bagels with cream cheese--which felt excessive. Because of the long wait, we ended up ordering an éclair and an apple cinnamon muffin instead--items that were ready right away. Both were tasty, but not enough to make up for the overall experience. The space itself is cute and inviting, but it could really use more seating and a better setup for handling takeout orders. It also seems like they may be understaffed for the volume of weekend customers they get. We likely wouldn't return on a weekend, as the wait just isn't worth it despite the good food.
