Liked the flavor of the new steak tip bowl but the steak had too much gristle. Could not chew half of it. Manager said they had been sent subpar steak. I said I would have liked the option of substituting chicken. read more

What a wonderful addition to the Cool Springs area! Tried this on a nice fall evening and had the most yummy bowls outside on the patio. We both went Asian themed; I tried the spicy Thai chicken and he got the Korean BBQ pork. Very flavorful! I added a bunch of xtra Thai sauce to give it a kicker since I enjoy spice. I absolutely love that they don't serve soda and instead have a variety of fresh teas and fruit drinks. The hibiscus tea was my fave. Looking forward to coming back and trying more. Love that calories are right on the menu and there are both healthy and treat yo self options. Highly recommended! read more

Very clean and nice staff. This place reminds me of a meal prep place but better!! Many different options to choose from such as bowls, tacos, burritos, kids meals. Also lots of fun healthy drink options. Wish I would've had this place when I did the Whole 30 diet. Quick, easy and super casual. I will be back! read more

CoreLife Eatery - BBQ Ranch Chicken Warm Rice Bowl - Gluten-Free Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

This was one of the best meals I have ever had. As a highly allergic person, I am so glad that this place exists, because they list every allergy, and have plenty of allergy-friendly meals. They were attendant to me and my family's every need, and they had a wide selection of veggies and protein. Their hibiscus drink was amazing, sweet, but not overly sugary. I had the Children's Power Plate, an absolutely delicious dish with chicken, purple rice, fresh cucumber, and corn. The dish has tangerines, which I, personally do not like. This is not their fault, as this is merely a personal preference. In conclusion, CoreLife Eatery is one of the best restaurants in Nashville. read more

Sriracha ginger tofu wrap is amazing! As a plant based eater, this is a place I will remember when travels take me back to Nashville! read more

CoreLife Eatery - Sriracha ginger tofu wrap - Gluten-Free Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Healthy AND hearty is hard to come by. Corelife will fill your belly but not your arteries. Various chicken bowls are what we had and they were all good. Plus you can add things you like if you want, so let the menu be your guide--not your lord and master. We also tried the brussel sprouts and mac-n-cheese sides. Enjoyable, flavorful, yet light. The staff was super friendly and the outdoor seating was great for a fall afternoon. read more

If you give a customer broth to-go, please for the love of all things holy, put it in a plastic bag and make sure the container top is secure. Sincerely, Guy with an inch of broth on his new car's seats read more

Good food with some unique options Probably not for everyone but you get to craft your dish read more

This used to be my favorite quick & healthy spot and I would've given it 5 stars but today, I was extremely disappointed. Granted, I went in at 4pm which is an off-hour, but that's no excuse for hard, inedible chicken. I got my usual Southwest chicken and purple rice salad which I usually enjoy thoroughly. Today, the chicken was so hard from sitting around for who knows how long, then being refired that I could not chew it. And the green onions had that funny taste they get from being out too long. I normally love green onions but I picked these out because they were spoiling the taste of my entire salad. I know that running a restaurant is difficult but I hope they don't overlook quality control because I don't want to lose one of my favorite lunch spots! read more

CoreLife is seriously my favorite fast casual place in Cool Springs. Healthy, delicious, and tons of whole food plant based options. I also appreciated that they have a Michael Pollan quote on the wall! Service was friendly and helped me through the process. Love it here! read more

In looking for gluten-free options, we were happy to find this gem. The drink selections had me at go. The food is healthy AND tasty. I had the Sweet Potato Buddha dish. Yum! Others at my table had a miso bowl and pork wrap. $40 for 3 with drink and tip. read more

I like that the food here seems quite fresh. I loved when they used to do their class saturdays where they had fitness classes and then you could have lunch after. Bring back those free fitness saturdays! It is a great way to try fitness studios in the area and give business to Corelife afterwards! read more

I order here at least once a week. Sometimes twice via uber. Mostly the food quality and freshness is consistent. Sometimes they mix up the bowl sizes like I order large and they give small, and sometimes they are super slow. Other than that I love their bowls, my fav is spicy steak. read more

Wonderful! Will be coming back!! Great food and cool location. Friendly staff! Outside option was awesome read more

delicious food and quick service! very nice atmosphere as well!! i highly recommend this place!

Is an okay place, the guys that made my salads I think they were in training or something because they gave my kids tacos with a cold tortilla straight from the fridge? I wish their chicken was grilled for the salads. We order salads and tacos for my toddler. May be I can come back the salads were good but they could be better I just didn't like the texture of the chicken. read more

Tried for the first time via catering and CoreLife was a HUGE hit! None only is the goons fresh and yummy, but the delivery was flawless and friendly! read more

CoreLife Eatery - Asian & Southwest Bowl Bars! - Gluten-Free Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Good variety of fresh ingredients. Not the "same ol same ol" bbq joint of fast counter order sandwich shop. They have fresh vegetables! I ordered the BBQ Chicken as a wrap, added avocado, light cheese and light black rice with Ranch on the side. The flavor as so good that I didn't miss the cheese or the Ranch. I don't like their unsweet black tea but theo Green Tea with Mint (also unsweetened) is very good. read more

Fantastic healthy food - Finally! Absolutely phenomenal takeout service. A robust menu of flavorful and tasty options. Compostable containers. And nutritional information that is widely available and easy to interpret. I've had half the menu so far over time, all 100% delicious, nice presentation in preparation, and delectable. I hope this local chain in Franklin continues to thrive - it's my favorite place now - and I hope to use their catering options soon. read more

Although the food is good and fresh for the most part. The service is awkward at best and slow when crowded. A one unsweetened tea was out and on the second visit the tea tasted of mold. read more

First time visitor and I'll definitely back. A variety of different "bowl" options with plenty of tantalizing sides to complement the various protein options (incl. Tofu). I chose the Buffalo chicken bowl with a side of maple/bacon Brussels sprouts. Perfect flavor combination with sufficient spice to jingle the taste buds. Fresh, well prepared by attentive servers and delicious. These ain't your ordinary bowls. "Regular" and "large" options available for hearty appetites. Catering available too if you're having a party. Got to meet the owner too ( AFTER I wrote this )! There's a second location (actually the original) in Murfreesboro. read more

Healthy food for the whole family. Great options for our 4 and 6 year old (power plate). Service can be a bit slow but the food it worth it! We love the smoothies as a treat, and the salads/bowls/wraps (southwest grilled chicken) for entrees. read more

The food was amazing. At first, the menu was a little overwhelming, but the staff was beyond helpful. Ingredients were super-fresh and our food was delicious and healthy! Just what we were looking for after a couple of days of travel. Staff was incredible, restaurant was spotless--even at lunch-time on a Friday and the prices were great! Can't wait to go back. Highly recommend! read more

Stopped in this morning for an early lunch while in the area around 11. Suggested by my wife. Yelp said opens at 10:45, the door said 10:45, but when I grabbed the door to pull it open - it was still technically locked. The people behind the counter said something but we could not hear them due to the sound system. We assumed it was okay to come on in. A lady came from behind the counter, with plastic gloves on, touched the door and the keys, then went back behind the counter and began putting lettuce and spinach in bowls (without changing gloves). Right away I was a little timid about germs. But, my wife wanted to eat there. She got a steak with ginger bowl and I got a chicken chipotle bowl. We got to the cashier and there was no tray offered. We had to come back and ask for utensils as the marked bins were empty. We had to come back and get cups for our beverages and locate the napkins. The food was good and really nutritious. The bowls were regular size but were only about 2/3 full. It did not look right to me. It filled us up more than I thought it would. There were also a whole bunch of good, healthy juices, etc. along the side wall. I feel certain, after reading all of the previous reviews, that this was just a bad day for the staff. Everybody deserves a second try. read more

This new dining option in Cool Springs features healthy meals that are customizable for pretty much most diets. I don't have any particular dietary restrictions so that aspect didn't matter to me, but I like that they are healthy, GMO-free, etc. I LOVE steak salads, so that's what I ordered. The Steak, Bacon & Bleu Cheese Green Bowl, to be precise. I ordered it without any changes, except I asked for the dressing on the side, and in addition to the cranberry vinaigrette - which is their suggested dressing - I also got the yogurt bleu cheese. I liked both, but preferred the bleu cheese. The actual salad hit the nail on the head! I loved the grass fed tri tip steak, bacon, cranberries, walnuts, tomatoes, gorgonzola, all on a bed of chopped romaine/mesclun - it was a perfect blend, with perfect proportions. The steak was cooked just right, the gorgonzola cheese chunks were nicely sized, and the cranberries added just a hint of sweetness. For $10 and change, it's a great value too. In addition to the salads, there are a lot of other options such as grain/rice bowls, tacos, and soups. There are a lot of ethnic flavors featured, like Thai, Greek, Korean, Southwestern, Japanese. CoreLifeEatery is a solid addition to the Cool Springs dining options. read more

Well balanced food(carbs, protein, veggies..) and tasty and reasonable price + Best place to go these days read more

Killer new spot on Cool Springs. We first went there in Murfreesboro and thought this would be a good thing for Cool Springs. Glad it's here. Menu is bowls, tacos, soups, etc but all very unique combinations, totally fresh, and VERY allergy friendly. My wife has dairy and gluten allergies, and the ability to have soup for her is amazing. It will take several more visits to pick our favorites, but we will be trying several more things over the next week or so. It's part of the regular rotation from now on. read more

Taste was delicious but portion size (small was not fair for price). I love the concept! Clean dinning area. I'm going to try to talk my family into trying it again. Fingers crossed read more

This place is my go-to spot for lunches and dinners. Awesome friendly staff ! Love the fresh ingredients they offer. One heck of salad bar, protein choices (they even have tofu) of all types that are perfectly prepared with a flavorful blend of spices. The bone broths are amazing! They too are loaded with flavor. Have used this establishment many times when working late at a local surgery center. I place orders for our staff and I, pick the order off their to-go rack and enjoy a healthful meal that I never feel guilty consuming. Everyone I have referred to CoreLife Eatery has not been disappointed. Perfect menu too for those that are following a healthy clean eating type diet. Download their convenient app and Use my code CoclanBe2998 to get $5 off your first order . You won't be disappointed . read more

Core life is a very nice healthy restaurant that provides very good wraps tacos and their especially good Buffalo Mac and cheese. While making my food they were fast and very nice while doing it. I recommend sitting outside on there patio it is very nice and relaxing back there! read more

So this place Was amazing! The food was so good and healthy and the staff was amazing. Also have a few homemade drinks which were perfect for a hot day. Asked them to put the kimchi on the side since I'd never had it before. Guess who now likes kimchi. Highly recommend, great variety on menu. read more

SO FREAKING GOOD!!!!! The flood was cleanly made and very sanitary l, also the whole place was just very clean! Food was amazing!! Definitely will stop in again when I can! read more

Delicious and healthy food. It is difficult to find restaurants that have healthy eats. Core Life Eatery provides variety and flavor. We'll be coming back here often! read more

This is a great place. I had the steak salad. The only reason I'm leaving off a star is the steak was so tough and dry. I will go back to try other items on the menu to make up my mind about the food. The food is really health conscious and that is a plus with me. They serve Spindrift, which I love! We actually sat outside in the summer heat but they have huge fans going and was really nice. Service was great. They made sure we had everything we needed. read more

Good options for healthier food. Could use more low fat/non-fat dressing options- but overall really fresh produce and good choices!

We love the healthy choices available at Core Life, But feel you have difficulty being consistent. Sometimes it's really fresh, Sometimes it is not. I got double chicken on my bowl on Sunday, The chicken was tough, Old and just nasty. I feel like it depends on who is working. Also, Maybe you need to weigh the protein to be sure you are truly giving a double portion. When I pay for a double portion, I expect it. read more

Delicious Korean BBQ Pork bowl. The staff was friendly and offered suggestions. Will definitely go back.

Unfortunately, after today my boyfriend and I have decided not to come back. The staff was so friendly and accommodating when they first opened but we were not greeted by that tonight. Seemed to be a lot of "no's" for menu items. My salad was tiny!! They told me a serving of tuna was "about 3 oz." online it is supposed to be 3.5 and when I measured it at home it wasn't even 2! Very disappointed in paying for a meal that didn't feel me up luckily we got it to go so I could add more of my food from home to it to make it a satisfying meal. Not worth the money when there are better options right around the area. read more

We were looking for a place that didn't serve greasy burgers on stale buns, faux plastic pizzas or other similar gastronomic delights while staying in Cool Springs and by chance came upon Core Life Eatery. I had the BBQ ranch chicken, she who must be obeyed had the Southwest Grilled Chicken and we shared a sweet potato Buddha bowl. They all were excellent. It is the closest thing I have come to City Silo. Well done. read more
