    I have been waiting to try the chicken salad at this place. I love the spacious look of this restaurant. The service was great. My chicken sandwich, potato soup, Mac and cheese, and cookies were good. The potato soup was delicious. They offer their own prepackaged foods to grab and go. I will be back for the soup and try a different sandwich.

    Buffalo and classic Carol flavors.

    This place has so many great flavors of chicken salad. The portions are large so a great way to satisfy your appetite.

    Okay my sis and I finally went here because it was recommended several times. Maybe people overhyped it but the food is ehhh okay.... If you want a basic quick lunch then this is the place for you. I personally was not a huge fan of the food but for the price you get a good portion of sandwich and a side. Now what really impressed us is the restaurant itself and the workers! Bri and Matt did an awesome job explaining each of the flavors and ways to get a meal. Bri was patient, attentive and definitely knowledgeable about the menu. She answered our questions with a smile on her face. They both checked on us afterwards as well. Overall I thought the restaurant was super cute and cozy and loved the bathroom signs.

    I stopped by CSC after work on 8/1/24 with my mom. I mentioned CSC to her a few weeks ago, so she brought them up while we were discussing places to grab a bite. Since I was curious to see Lambert's Point's growth into a commerce section, we headed over to try Chicken Salad Chick out. CSC is located within a brand new building - everything is clean and tidy. There's plenty of seating (including al fresco), and the line to order is sectioned off with a permanent wood divider. There are menus on tv screens above the register, and there are also physical laminated menus available opposite a small open refrigerator next to the registers. Parking is plentiful and convenient as it's situated directly outside. The bathrooms are of the single-use variety. The men's bathroom was clean and organized. The manager on duty greeted us while we looked at the menu. He was kind and patient, and eagerly offered up answers to any questions we had. I was happy to interact with him, especially since he informed us that CSC offers (something like) 11-12 different types of chicken salads. That opens up a myriad of different and exciting options as I was skeptical how a place offering essentially just chicken salad could thrive using that business model. Anyways, since it was our first time at any Chicken Salad Chick, we took our time to look over the menu. Luckily, it wasn't busy, so we weren't rushed by any employees or customers. We both decided on a sandwich meal that came with a cup of soup and a drink. I opted for a turkey club with a cup of broccoli cheese soup while mom ordered the chicken salad melt and poblano chicken soup. We gave each other a half of our sandwiches - we both liked the turkey club and chicken salad melt, and I liked my broccoli cheese soup. Mom finished her meal, whereas I took home some leftovers. Before I forget, there are multiple bread options for the sandwiches, like white, wheat, rye and croissant. This is another aspect that opens up a plethora of options at CSC. Drinks are self serve. They offer a soda fountain machine and I saw a section for teas. Once you've ordered and paid at the register, if you're dining in, they will bring your food to your table. A number is provided which you leave on your table, so they know exactly where to go. Overall, I enjoyed my lone visit to Chicken Salad Chick. Service is fantastic, and soup and sandwiches are a great option if you're not overly hungry. Thank you, Chicken Salad Chick. JV

    Ahhmazing Chicken Salad & Service! I recently had a delightful experience at Chicken Salad Chick in Norfolk. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the immaculate cleanliness of the restaurant. The star of the show, of course, was the chicken salad. Matthew, one of the employees, was incredibly helpful and enthusiastic. He encouraged me to sample several of their unique chicken salad flavors, which was a fantastic way to discover my new favorite. I immediately spotted my perfect chicken salad, with multiple fruits included, just the way I like it. I settled on the Fruity Fran, while my husband decided on the Sassy Scotty. The Fruity Fran had apples, grapes and pineapple, and the Sassy Scotty had ranch, bacon, and shredded cheese throughout. We both ordered them as sandwiches on croissant, however, mine was topped with cheddar cheese and bacon. The only thing that would have sent this chicken salad sandwich to the next level would have been if the croissant was toasted and the chicken salad had a little more pepper. However, overall I was pleased. We also had an option of a side, husband selected mac&cheese and I settled on the loaded baked potato soup. My husband wasn't fond of the mac & cheese. And let's not forget the ice! Seriously, their crunchy soft ice is the best I've ever had. I filled my cup to the brim with a quarter sweet tea and the rest was their lemonade. Absolutely the best, so delightfully sweet. I highly recommend Chicken Salad Chick to anyone looking for a fresh and flavorful lunch or light dinner. Last both not least if you're thinking, well I don't have time to order and sit and eat, they have a grab and go fridge on standby of all the chicken salad selections, oh and download the app and start racking up those points. Thanks again to Matthew and the entire team for a wonderful experience! Chicken Salad Chick is a woman after my heart!!!

    Absolutely amazing I love this place! 5 stars! Clean and healthy and fresh! Great service and reasonable prices too! We will be back!

    I wish they had gluten free crackers or bread! I don't like eating it alone. It was too sweet for me but good. I'll try others and bring my own crackers!

    Fruity Fran, broccoli salad and free dessert cookie!

    A few things first, the parking lot spaces are tight so, don't take a big vehicle there. The folks are quite friendly and helpful. The place is CLEAN and they have free refills. The other things: The croissant for my Fruity Fran had a touch of mold on it. At first I thought it could be food transfer of some kind but when it didn't come off after I rubbed it a few times I knew it was mold. I asked hubby to check his croissant and his was fine. They were quite gracious about making me another sandwich and afterwards the owner came out to speak with us. She stated they were having some temperature control issues in their bread area and she was quite apologetic and assured me that it wouldn't happen again and they had just performed a QA check on the rest of the croissants. I know crap happens but it wasn't a good way to start our first experience. Now, as for my Fruity Fran - unfortunately it did not hold up to what I am used to from Whole Foods or Jason's Deli. Even though I love mayo this salad was a little mayo forward. I also wish the croissant had a bit more salad between the buns. I did ask for mayo packets but they weren't necessary. The salad wasn't dry in the least! The broccoli salad was quite tasty. I would have that again. I tried my husband's pasta and it seemed a little lackluster. They've recently opened and may be ironing out the kinks. If I'm down this way again I'll stop back by (we did get a free upgrade coupon) but today was a bit of a miss. Next time I'll try another salad.

    Loads potato soup

    I absolutely love this place. It's always so clean. The staff is friendly. Almost every time I have gone I get the Dixie Chick because it is the only chicken salad with onions and I feel like chicken salad isn't chicken salad without onions. Sometimes I indulge in the soup my favorite being the loaded potato soup and if I'm feeling really crazy I go for the slice of white chocolate cake it is absolutely amazing. I frequent here often. Make sure to sign up for rewards.

    I love this place! The different kinds of chicken salad are innovative and delicious. I had the Dixie Chick (it's the only one with onions) served on a croissant with a side of broccoli salad. Everything was fresh, well prepared and delicious. This small chain is very clean, modern, bright and airy. I am really looking forward to eventually trying every one of their chicken salad variations. I will return. It keeps calling my name. For my disabled comrades, they have a private parking lot that is newly paved and in very good condition. It's very easy to navigate.

    Horrible parking.. plan for it! This is a busy place! Who doesn't love chicken salad-- and OHHHH the varieties. We spent some time deciding on the menu and I'm Happy to report-- we were impressed! This is one of the few eateries I've been to lately that seemed to be fully staffed with helpful and kind people! Portion size and quality was fantastic ‼ The spicy pimento Chz- kicked it up a notch and paired fantastically with my fruit cup. My buddy tried the chicken salad and a side of broccoli soup and he said it was creamy and full flavored. The restaurant is cute and has the southern girl charm and classic French country feel to it. There is a patio with seating too. We had a great lunch experience! Next time I'll try their white chocolate cake-- the ladies behind me said it was a MUST!

    Dixie on crescent
    Lashanda R.

    Tried this place for the first time. I had the Dixie on a crescent and the chicken tortilla soup. The sandwich was ok. The soup was horrible. Looks as if it had dried out and they added to tortillas strips to the soup. They should go on the side when you order to go. I will try it again... it was something different for lunch instead of the typical burger joint.

A staff told us that wait time came reach to 50 mins due to walk ins and online orders and all food is cooked to order with 2 chefs. I chose to stay because I already knew what I wanted and didn't want to spent time trying to find another restaurant in the area, especially with 2 kids. There is a small seating area. When we got to host stand to order, I was told that Grits and waffle cut off at 4pm daily... this upset me because I had looked at menu prior to coming and that's what I really wanted. Im visiting from out of state, so it's not easy to come back. I ordered at 4:17pm. We were seated after ordering. The process is interesting. Around 4:23pm, I saw another table get chicken and waffles and it just irritated me because that's what I wanted. Plus, I was very VERY hungry at this time. The menu really should indicate time cut off for food. Also, pasta doesn't get sold until 2pm. Kids shrimp came at 4:56 and kids chicken came a couple minutes later. Kids meal come with caprisun. Seafood platter (my meal) came at 5pm. The staff was friendly and the food was enjoyable, nonetheless. Service could've been better. I would return for the food.

    It is Friday during Lent. With that being said, today is a great day to check out Sweet Jam Cafe…read moreand sample their shrimp/fish and grits. I've been to Sweet Jam a time or three and each time was just as perfect as the first time. After several visits, I would have to say that my two favorite dishes are their Chicken and Waffles and their ridiculously creamy and delicious Shrimp and Grits. Today is the 2'nd Friday during Lent, so for me that means no red meat. With that being said, if you are looking for a dangerously delicious red meat free dish I would recommend Sweet Jam Cafe's Shrimp and Grits. Let's start with the Chicken and Waffles- the chicken and waffles is a plate of one waffle that is cut into quarters and plated with three full size wings. The waffle is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I think their might be a hint of vanilla in the batter and I love it. The chicken, oh my gosh, sooooooo good. The chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. If they sold just that flavorful chicken skin, I would buy a whole bucket of it. So good. The Shrimp and Grits are...... All I can say about the Shrimp and Grits is to go to Sweet Jam and order a bowl. It is so creamy, the grits are cooked perfectly and the shrimp.... Oh the shrimp. Do your mouth a favor and try this dish. You will not be disappointed.

    WHERE THE VIBES AT?!…read more My girlfriend and I just moved to the Norfolk area and were looking for a place to eat lunch at. After looking through a few menus we decided to dine at Sweet Jame Cafe. 11/10 would definitely recommend this Black-owned, local business. She orders shrimp, fried scallops, yams, mac and cheese, and cornbread I ordered the chicken and french toast with strawberries + whipped cream When I say DELICIOUS!!!! Everything was cooked to perfection and took no time for them to bring the food out. Plus, we found out they serve an all-you-can-eat buffet on Sundays for $20.00 per person. This family-owned business cooks with a lot of love + their customer service and attentiveness is top-tier. If you're ever in the area, give this place a try I promise you will not be disappointed. Also, if you're a sweet tea lover like me I'm here to tell you, IT'S LIKE THAT!!!! Thank you, Sweet Jam Cafe, for the amazing experience and great food. Will be back VERY soon!

She didn't just drop us off at our table and leave, but she made sure to mention who was waiting on us. The little things I didn't ever think I would appreciate. The ambiance was really cool vibes. I love being able to see the kitchen and the bar was very nice centerpiece that just added to the vibes. The music level was close to perfect and the music selection felt very inclusive and yet still felt the representation. This was literally a random stop because our first choice was closed so I was totally not dressed to fit in so I am thankful no one made me feel out of place. The waitress was so nice and friendly. Really everyone was friendly. I even loved when we left the chefs were telling us "thank you" and "have a nice night." The food, OMG!!! Hands down THE best food spot I've had for dinner in Norfolk. This place even beats out the BC. We started with the pork bites and baaby before I knew it, it was devoured (10/10). The way the huge piece of pork loin was tender, juicy, and flavorful should be studied (10/10). The sweet potato purée and southern veggies paired wonderfully. The chicken?! Juicy!!! (8/10). I don't even care for creamed corn but here was next level. What I also don't care for is bread pudding, but OMG the complimentary dessert sent me over the moon. I wanted more (12/10). 350 Grace was absolutely bussin and a true culinary experience. I can't wait to return in more appropriate clothing. It's definitely a date night and anniversary type vibe without the over expensive prices in case you just want to show up by yourself.

    What a truly disappointing experience. Let me start off by saying that the food was delicious…read more Without a doubt some of the best dishes I've had since I moved to Norfolk. You would think this would earn the restaurant points, but it just further added to the dissatisfaction. How can a restaurant with such good food be so unpleasant to be in? From the moment I stepped in and interacted with the curt hostess everything was so tense and stressful. Unfortunately the last two reviews of this restaurant completely match my experience tonight. We were rushed and pressured to place orders quickly or lose our right to eat there. I will admit that not all of my party was present on time. But I (the one who made the reservation) and another guest arrived right on time to claim our table. This establishment's policies around ordering are so strict and rigid that it's impossible to relax and enjoy yourself. Life happens, people show up late and things don't always go to plan. The inability for the staff to adapt and accommodate leaves the guests feeling as if their presence is a burden. No one goes to a sit down restaurant to simply get their food and leave. Fine dining is also about the experience. I specifically sought out a Black-owned restaurant to patronize in recognition of Black History Month. To be made to feel so unwelcome after being so intentional about being in that restaurant was the worst part of the whole thing. 350 Grace, do better. You've got the food down. Get the experience down, as well. If managing a busy dining room of patrons is too difficult, might I suggest converting to a drive-through?

    Great service, and the fried green tomatoes were my favorite! I also loved the French toast,…read moredefinitely hit the spot.

    I've been to this location twice. Both times were a bit iffy. The space is beautiful. One side is…read moremore of a waiting/lounge area, and the other is for dining. I like how in the dining area, they put covers over the overhead lights so it isn't super bright. AND THE DRINKS ARE SOOOOOOO GOOD. First time we went, we overheard the waitress say she didn't want to serve us, she was exhausted. Rightfully so, she was the only server. We held nothing against the server, we were peeved with the owner. The woman with the light hair. Took what felt like forever to even get drinks. They were also out of a lot of food... which isn't necessarily a bad thing... but the items I wanted were no longer available so I just ordered the fried green tomatoes. They were fine, they just needed more sauce and a bit more seasoning in the breading! The poor server was just miserable while we were there, and the owner was just kinda walking around telling everyone what needed to be done, not quite helping, more so micro managing. We ended up tipping the poor girl $35. I hope she got to keep it all. Fast forward to this week. We tried it out again. It was a bit warm. We had been Instructed that they had family visiting and if it got too loud to let her know. The noise wasn't the issue at all. When we sat down we saw that it was 76° inside! We wanted to eat though, so we tried to tough it out. There was only one waiter and then another girl helping him serve the food. Again, and I don't know how it happened again, the boy had said to the lady he didn't want to serve us, there was too much going on. She had told him he was going to serve us, strike 1. We ordered all of our food at once to make the poor kid's life a bit easier. We didn't get drinks until about 20 minutes after sitting down. (The pineapple drink bangs btw). And we were literally sitting there DRIPPING sweat. Even the owner had beads of sweat alllll over her face. We ended up asking for our order to go. And my husband ordered his sandwich without Cole slaw. We said that literally a COUPLE of minutes after we ordered. The food magically appeared, and they had US package it all up. And my husband couldn't even tell the owner that he asked for no Cole slaw, but she kept talking over him. And she ended up being the "polite" kind of rude after we asked for our food to go. We weren't angry, we were just hot. But looking back on the bigger picture, it definitely angry. Especially for the young people they have serving. The poor server was so stressed so again, I do not blame the servers. We tipped that bot $25 and again, I hope he gets it ALL. I 100% put the blame on the owners. This place should be a food truck... not a restaurant. The bad reviews didn't make sense to me.... Until they did.

    Good evening Fellow Yelpers! Its ya favorite critic again with another #runtellthat noteworthy…read moreestablishment -- located in Norfolk, VA. This was NOT my 1st time experiencing this phenomenal business, and I will shout from the mountain tops for all who will listen. Tonight was #Datenight. My wife, another power couple (family, not blood related), and myself. Since the 1st time we introduced them to this place, they've been #hooked. Upon entering, we were greeted by the hostess. We noticed Brie (one of the owners) and we had a conversation (expressing our fondness of the business. We waited about 5 minutes and was escorted to our seats by Brie. We were seated in VIP (Reserved) section Thursday nights are reserved for Karaoke and its was phenomenal, to say the least!! There were some real "singers" in there--not professional, but singers nonetheless. Make sure to come between 6-9 to enjoy their "Happy hour" specials. Drinks came fast. Appetizers came faster. And the food was not far behind. My wife ordered "Keishia Wings (Parmesean Garlic) and fries basket. My sister ordered some kind of dip, and my brother ordered wings. The main course. I ordered "Bad Gyrl Lamb Chops" with Rice & Gravy and Cabbage. My wife ordered the "Veggie Platter" with Collards, Sweet potatoes, Broccoli and Cabbage. My sister ordered The "Sausage, Rice and Onions" platter and my brother ordered the Turkey Wings (Fried then gravy added (no onions), Mac and Cheese and Cabbage. When I say we cleaned our plates, that's an understatement. If you're in the area, visiting the area, or just looking for something outside of the normal, this is it!!! You don't even have to take my word for it. Try it yourself and see --- You will NOT be disappointed! We will be back time after time and hope to meet/see you there! Enjoy the rest of your day
