This was my first visit to CoreLife Eatery and it seemed appropriate coming from Green Planet. I was looking for something to hold me over to dinner and avoiding fast food. I pulled up their online menu and found the tacos are just the right size. Many taco options, I went with the buffalo. I ordered online using Apple Pay (for the first time lol) and wait time was 20-25 minutes. It was not busy so that was a little surprising. They are using Grub Hub app when you order online, maybe that effects the wait time. I stopped back to pick up almost an hour later. It was in the pick up section that you can grab and go. Unfortunately not hot because I got side tracked due to unexpected wait. I loved the trendy ambiance and signage Indicating fresh, scratch, clean eating, and gluten free options. I took mine to go and this little taco did not disappoint! It was so fresh and bold tasting and the buffalo sauce was perfect amount and pop of heat. If I have found the perfect chicken wrap, in this case taco this is it! And this taco was in fact finger licking good! I can't wait to come back and try more fresh scratch menu options! read more

The restaurant is clean and the staff are friendly. The food is absolutely fantastic, but every single time I have gone here or ordered takeout/delivery, my order is incorrect. I do realize restaurants can be busy, but it's important to get orders right in case someone has a food allergy or a medical issue. Not to mention, the inconvenience of time wasted on ordering then having to re-order if I'm there in person and watching them throw out perfectly good food because I was not listened to in the first place. It's a bit disheartening that over the last month, this hasn't been improved upon. read more

I have always enjoyed Corelife Eatery and this is a great location for me when I do other shopping. The employees are always very nice and of course accommodating for requests. I absolutely love the purple rice and decided to get the Korean BBQ bowl with chicken. It was a decent amount of chicken and everything else went beautifully ..kimchi, spicy broccoli, carrots. I got the sauce on the side and a side order of their delicious brussel sprouts. It was nice and clean inside. read more

CoreLife Eatery - New American Near Me - Camillus, New York

I'm honestly impressed by how consistently this CoreLife location gets my order wrong. You'd think with enough repetition, something would go right eventually...but no, they manage to find a new mistake every single time. Today's highlight: the avocado I paid for was conveniently forgotten. Again. Last time it was something else. There is zero attention to detail here, which is wild considering the entire concept is scooping ingredients into a bowl and... checking them off a list. And it's not just the missing items. Hair in food, sloppy assembly, incorrect orders..it's like quality control simply does not exist. The staff looks disengaged, unbothered, and seemingly allergic to accuracy. At this point, ordering here feels like a gamble: Will I get what I paid for, or will I get a surprise disappointment? If you enjoy paying full price for incomplete meals and playing "spot the mistake," this might be the place for you. Otherwise, save your money and your patience. Super unfortunate given the food tastes good, it's just not worth the price when the orders are consistently wrong. read more

I love it here! I've been here many times with my family; I love their salad, soup, and drink options. They have an array of options available, which are all very healthy and fresh. The food is made to order and is always delicious. I love finding new salad places; I'm glad this place is very convenient. I love trying different salads here and trying out different toppings and dressings. I can't wait to stop back in. read more

Terrible service. Every single time I order from here the order is wrong. I have called once or twice about it and I am always met with "you have to talk to DoorDash ", instead of simply offering a gift card or a refund. The most recent time that I ordered my order was delayed by two hours, and they started blaming my DoorDasher saying that they stole the order. Mind you I have ordered DoorDash dozens and dozens of times and have literally never had any issue with any DoorDash order except when I order from this location. The management here is terrible and I mean terrible!!! Whoever the manager is of this location should be fired and should never work in a customer facing role ever again. He does not know how to handle an upset yet respectful customer. read more

Everyone was nice except for the skinny guy working on the bowls. Super disrespectful I asked if I could have double chicken the kid scoffed and threw a single piece of chicken on the grill. Sad to see for a place I come to often read more

The service was absolutely horrible. So many employees with so much attitude and rudeness . Food was decent, but will not go back due to the poor service. read more

Similar to the other CoreLife's in the area. Order was ready on time. Ingredients were fresh. Easy in and out. Can't complain.

We went to core to get a light lunch, and it was worth it! It's nothing fancy but definitely a little spot to grab something quick! They have all kinds of salads, wraps and sandwiches. You order and you go right down the line and can personalize your order! No servers here, they just make your food in front of you. They also have yummy lemonades and teas! Definitely nice for a summer lunch. read more

CoreLife Eatery - New American Near Me - Camillus, New York

The food here is great, especially if you're looking for a replacement to Panera or just a quick dinner solution. But sometimes, like most chains, it can be inconsistent. I often order the steak bacon and blue cheese salad, with either the mac and cheese or the sweet potatoes. But, every time you order, you'll get a different result. I've had ingredients forgotten. I've had the wrong order all together. During the summer months, it's hard to use the outdoor space because it can be so packed in the plaza and people who have long past finished eating stay at their tables. read more

CoreLife Eatery - just 4 gals enjoying the atmosphere - New American Near Me - Camillus, New York

I guess it's never too late to learn a lesson. Typically I read reviews of eateries before I buy from them but the local CoreLife eatery in Camillus always has so many people going in and out. I just figured it would be a good choice. I was wrong. Tonight was my first time trying them and I ordered a Steak & Bleu salad, which comes with bacon and walnuts only to get home to find they forgot the blue cheese, the walnuts, AND the bacon- literally most of the salad. It boggles my mind that a steak and bleu cheese salad could be missing the Bleu cheese, but again, lesson learned. This salad came w cranberry vinaigrette- which is confusing because the flavor profiles don't go together- and it's green as shown in the photos. I don't know where you get green cranberries from, but I tasted it and it does taste like cranberry except it's a putrid green color which is unappetizing. Moving on.... I also ordered a side of roasted brussels sprouts with maple drizzle. As you can see in the photo, there were four items in my Brussel sprouts which look like stems and just to be sure I bit down on one to see - and it's hard and totally inedible - a serious choking hazard. Quite frankly, this is the most ridiculous takeout order I've ever had. Whoever owns this particular, CoreLife or manages it should retrain their staff - or they'll continue to get bad reviews like this one and lose customers, like me. read more

Oh my gosh! My husband and I just ordered from here and it was atrocious! We were so excited, I'm so disappointed! We ordered 2 korean bbq pork mac and cheeses and 2 steak fajita tacos (one substitute chicken) and everything was wrong! The lady serving us gave us barely any mac and cheese and the meat was entirely fat and the max and cheese was dried out-- however they managed to do that. I spit it out immediately. I am sick! The tacos, instead of steak, we were given pork. It's like the server didn't even listen to us. We also requested a side of the bbq and she gave us some balsamic thing? I am not sure but it was not correct. Very disappointed. read more

CoreLife Eatery - Wrong taco, bad Mac and cheese :( - New American Near Me - Camillus, New York

We've been going to CoreLife on occasion since it opened here and have loved every meal....until today. I got my "usual", the large Spicy Thai Chicken & Rice Noodles, which I have always enjoyed very much. This time it was terrible. There were no sauces included (it used to come with 2 different ones), there was maybe a tablespoon of chicken, but boy oh boy did they make up for the lack of chicken with the green onions. Honestly, there were more green onions than chicken, cabbage, peppers and sprouts ( I only saw a couple sprouts) combined and multiplied by two. It was basically noodles and green onions. 45 minutes later and I still have a strong green onion taste in my mouth. My wife's order was missing the avocado that she had added and paid for as well. I was so looking forward to this meal, instead I'm sad beyond words at how terrible it was. Unfortunately, we won't be going back. read more

I honestly do not understand how this place doesn't have big awesome reviews. Ours closed down in Kentucky and the food is just as amazing here. The food is delicious and the people who work here are good at their jobs. Thank you for a great experience! read more

Woah. Who knew a Cobb salad could be so bad. It was all lettuce and the really hard stems of the lettuce too. Maybe 3 pieces of chicken, one giant chunk of an extremely underripe avocado, almost no other fixings... Very confused. I will not be coming back. read more

The service and quality here is very inconsistent. While I am usually pleased, they almost forgot my chicken once (if I hadn't been watching, they would have), and today the chicken bone broth tastes like water and they definitely forgot to add the lime cilantro dressing to my southwest bowl. I take this to go, so it's not worth going back. It's also not worth the high prices when the quality is blah. Please work on your consistency, and if you choose to order from here, pay careful attention as they make your order. read more

I was excited to see this location since I love Core. But I was very disappointed in the portion sizes. I always get the steak, bacon and blue, which they said is only available in the "big" size now. My salad was light on mesclun mix which is a cheap ingredient. Also, I only got a very small portion of steak which was disappointing. It wasn't even busy so they cannot say they were in a rush. 2 salads for $24 and it wasn't even filled to the top of the container. Also, the bread was stale. read more

CoreLife Eatery - Steak bacon and blue, tossed and very light. I am a small person and didn't fill me, let alone my bf - New American Near Me - Camillus, New York

Ate here for the first time. Not a fan. Paid $24 for two salads and a drink. I lmpw many Peppinos like it and tell me that you have to know what to order, but I'm not willing to invest 10 expensive visits to figure out what I like. Staff was friendly and the food was fresh. Just not my cup of tea. read more

CoreLife Eatery - New American Near Me - Camillus, New York

I love the variety and all the healthy veggie ingredients, plus the fact that so much is gluten free. I enjoyed my grain bowl - huge portion- and the flavored lemonades are good too. But I will definitely not dine in next time. The servers rush you through the line, and all of them are working so fast that they don't even look at you... so it feels like a factory line. I get that things are tough for restaurants during Covid, but next time I'll order online and just do pickup/takeout instead of dining in the restaurant. read more

I just went into the core in camillus and an employee named Jim made my salad. After i got to the car i started to eat it and realized that there was a scoop of pickled onions in it. I specifically told him that I was highly allergic to any kind of onion and only to put rice corn lettuce and ranch dressing. after that i started to get really itchy and break out in hives and so i went back in and told him what had happened and he said there there was nothing that he could do for me. I expected that they would atleast take back the old salad and make me a new one and instead he took my old salad threw it out forcefully and rolled his eyes. after that i went home and cried for hours hungry and alone. read more

Let me start this review by saying I've eaten here several times and the food has been a solid 4 stars but the meal I just received via door dash was inedible. Lettuce was brown; not fresh at all. Meat tastes like it was cooked yesterday. I have no problem paying more for fresh organic food but go irate when it's anything but. Would be scared to go back. read more

Food is absolutely amazing! You cannot go wrong getting food from here.. it's so much healthier when you're on the go. 90% of the employees are wonderful. I would eat here daily if I could. :-) read more

First time there today, it's just really loud. We felt rushed along while we tried ordering. I had the kale chicken Cesar. It was heavy on the kale and a little light in the chicken, all the grated Parmesan cheese was on the bottom. Husband had the steak blue cheese salad, which he enjoyed. He was disappointed in that in the rush to move us along, he didn't get a chance to add more toppings to the salad. The place was clean. But it just opened last week. It's nice to have this as an option, but probably won't be a regular spot. read more

Could eat here every day without getting sick of it. Plenty of ingredients and options. I have yet to try something I didn't like.

Been to Core many times since they came to town. Classic story of a restaurant starting out with good quality and value and slowly degrading into mediocrity. In previous visits I've had to ask the server to actually add some protein after seeing the meager amount they initially added. I think $11 is a bit much to pay for noodles and shredded greens. Our last visit 11/15/21, my large bowl had 0nly 6 dice sized pieces of chicken and my daughters large bowl was only 3/4 full. After this experience we've decided that we have paid our last visit to CoreLife Eatery. Many other options nearby for good food with good value. read more

I want to love core life so badly! The menu sounds amazing and I love the options available but I have eaten here 3 times and I became deathly sick the day after all three times. I always ordered a chicken dish so maybe they aren't cooking the chicken well enough but I definitely got varying degrees of food poisoning from this restaurant all three times. No more attempts from me! read more

I've dined at core many times, but a few weeks ago was the last time. While in line, I was told to put on a mask by the server before she could make my bowl, I kindly put the mask on and proceeded to order my food. While going through the line, we got a glimpse to the back room where they prep our food, none of the employee we're wearing masks while prepping the vegetables and on top of that one of them was VAPING all around the food that was being prepped. So hypocritical and just so unsanitary and unsafe. It was disgusting and definitely a last time for Core for us. read more

I love core and was excited to see this new location open up. All of their salads are delicious, as well as there Thai noodle dish. You must get their lemonade or cider green tea. They can be heavy handed on the salad dressing so I tell them light dressing. It looks like a new menu from other locations. They have plates now. Their chicken is really good along with the mash potatoes and broccolini. read more

This will be my last time ordering Core from the Fairmount location due to orders being incorrect and the lettuce not fresh, but brown. I've had wrong orders with both take-out and in-person, and it's not worth the money anymore. read more

Service was good. But idk of anyone rlly likes the food here. Kinda bad. Great lobby tho.

I have been to core life in camillus twice, and the first time I told the employee working the first station greeting customers it was my first time and I was a little overwhelmed and she just stared at me, was rude throughout the process, and never smiled once. The second time I went there were two old ladies in front of my sister and I who were obviously hard of hearing and the two employees kept rolling their eyes and making fun of the women for not hearing them, and were not helpful at all. I was absolutely disgusted and after two similar experiences with terrible customer service I will not be returning. Also not to mention my sisters steak in her steak bacon and blue salad was screams leg burnt it was blackened. (Mine was fine) but hers was terrible tasting it must have been cooked for way to long. For all of these reasonings I will not be returning to CoreLife read more

Third visit since they opened 15 days ago, that should say a lot. Frequented the one in De Witt numerous times and visited the one in North Syracuse once. Tonight's visit was more than a disappointment in an eatery. It was a stark and frightening realization of just how mad this world is becoming. Clearly the manager who abusively took my order is in immediate need of mental health care and if there are children and a significant other in his life they too need immediate help. Drug testing should also be considered. Attacking a stranger, no less a customer, makes it unfathomable how he must treat those close to him. Please help him before more or worse harm is done to someone else. This was non-worthy of a star but the only way to write a review. read more
