Like the old adage goes, you are what you eat! As someone who is very selective about what I put in my body, I am often conflicted about eating out due to the prevalence of unhealthy food options that are littered across the American landscape. Thankfully, businesses such as Corelife Eatery have altered the status quo and provide health conscious patrons with viable options that won't fuel a guilt trip or lead to illness. I decided to stop in to the Mentor location as I had a gift card that was collecting dust in my wallet. The first thing that stood out was the sheer variety of nutritious toppings such as rice, beans, noodles, and an assortment of vegetables, broth bowls, soups, and even tacos! I opted for the 'Build Your Own Bowl' and got thai noodles with tofu and some vegetables mixed in. What an amazing compilation of flavors! There are simply too many good options here to not be impressed. I will be back for more. Your body, your life - Core Life!

spicy thai chicken & rice noodles

Stopped here for a quick dinner. Had the spicy chicken Thai salad. It was tasty, fresh and quick.

Not a five and a generous four. The organic fast food concept is in and of itself amazing. However to keep prices very reasonable they hire kids who are not exactly invested. Their prep of food is often careless. They have to be reminded that you asked for double chicken routinely, which is a good example of staff's frequently-encountered inattention. They close at nine pm. I know with working out I tend to get their late. But as early as 8 pm I have been urged by staff to take my food in plastic "to go" containers even though I would prefer to sit in a booth for a half hour. Something about sitting in a restaurant and being urged to eat out of plastic containers and to use plastic utensils is a turn off. If you voice your objection, it is met with a sigh or a long look because someone doesn't want to wash an extra bowl or a spoon. So the enjoyment of stopping by is compromised by the inability to have things prepared the customary way. The customary way is not favored by a young staff itching to get out of work. Core Life has great potential. But their managers, if one is on duty, do not appear to be keeping an eye on whether customers are content. That is CL's biggest wrinkle. Great food nonetheless.

5 stars....5 stars...5stars!!!! My first time getting food from here and it most certainly will not be the last. Food was absolutely delicious. All of it. We ordered spicy chicken warm rice bowl and a pick 2 that consisted of small ranch flank steak bowl and cup of broccoli cheddar soup. So filling!!! If this is healthy eating then sign me up!!!!

Great food if you eat in, but ordering from the app is laughable. So DON'T skip the line by ordering through the app--go ahead and stand in line. It will be much faster.

This place is trash!!! Everything was completely frozen and the workers were so rude and rushed us. Never coming back again

The Chipotle of Health Food . Whatever food preference or intolerance you may have they've got you covered. The food is delicious and you don't feel guilty indulging in this giant bowl of greatness. Also the unique iced teas and lemonades are incredible.

They are generally very good. Just a piece of advise. Watch them make your bowl. I always ask for double protein (chicken in my case) and every time including today I've had to remind them. "It's double chicken"! Otherwise they put once scoop. It's getting a little annoying since all they have to do it read the ticket. But they don't.

Food is good, but they tend to over charge so be careful if you modify a pre made bowl.

Picked this place for a last minute planned dinner. So glad we did, everything here was so…read moredelicious, prices were fair, and ambiance was great! They had a great selection of food, apps, drinks, entrees, i mean everything! We all shared and we all enjoyed everything we ordered. The truffle addition was our favorite, we love anything truffle. We ended up speaking with the owner and he was very friendly and personable and you can tell his employees like working there. So glad we chose this place!

Servers are still quick, pleasant, & attentive. The food is still very good. What brings my rating…read moredown from 5 to 4 stars is the wait to be seated. First, there really is no seating while waiting for a table. Second, the hostess underestimated our wait time. We were told 20 minutes when it actually took 45 minutes. To be fair, I don't entirely blame her. When I mentioned how long we had been waiting, she apologized for being understaffed. EVERY PLACE seems to have the same problem so I get it. But what the real issue may be for Ridgewood Kitchen is an ability to be even semi-accurate in how long it will take a table to turn over. There were three elderly couples seated at a table when we arrived. They had clearly finished their meals & were conversing. They did so for another hour & forty-five minutes! How can a restaurant deal with that?!? Ridgewood Kitchen is still a great choice for food & table service. Just be aware the wait time for a table may be considerably longer than quoted.

The mixed drinks were delicious and very well crafted, with upscale presentation…read more The entrees we chose - mahi mahi and pork chop were perfectly cooked and very delicious. We can't wait for our next visit!

The food was excellent. The ambiance was good but small and noisy. The service was good but…read moresomewhat uninformed. "Hook and Hoof" has been in downtown Willoughby for quite a while so they must be doing something right. And the fact that there aren't that many high level dining establishments in the Willoughby area helps. The first thing I noticed was the facility is very narrow which lends to a crowded feel. And all you need is one overly boisterous table (which was right next to us) and the noise level can be overwhelming. The server we had for the evening was very pleasant. She did a good job being timely with everything. But, it was odd that she often did not listen to an entire request (or maybe just couldn't hear) before walking away. There were a couple of requests for simple standard items that she wasn't even sure they had. I just found it odd. The food however was excellent. The kitchen staff did an exemplary job all night. I had a marvelous cocktail from the well stocked bar. And my double cut pork chop was fantastic. So full of flavor, juicy, cooked exactly as I requested. The sides that accompanied it were just tender enough without being mushy. And my banana cream pie was great. Overall, I give "Hook and Hoof" a solid 4. I definitely can see us going back. They deserve another try. You should give them a try and see for yourself.
