Crisp, Lynchburg
Bruce K.

Excellent lunch today and we sat outside. Crisp is a salad made-to-order and they have a very organized system. Yes, there are some excellent suggestions including Baja (black beans, cheddar, chipotle ranch), Caesar (parmesan garlic croutons, romaine lettuce) and Greek (cucumber, tomatoes, feta cheese, olives) but you can also assemble your salad your way from the different lettuces, toppings, proteins and dressings. And they mix it up right in front of you and it's ready to go. I chose the Cobb salad and it was delicious. Tomatoes, hard boiled egg (sliced up right then!), blue cheese crumbles, diced chicken, bacon, and blue cheese dressing, thoroughly mixed with romaine lettuce. It was, uh, crisp. And delicious and at the end, I felt not only full but also like I'd made a healthy choice. Masks required, inside dining or tables outside along the street.

BBQ and Blue (left) & the Greek.

I have been in a handful of times, consistently, the staff is happy and polite. I find the salads to be divine! The greek salad is as traditional and tasty as you would expect, and some of the more eclectic juxtapositions like the BBQ and Blue are a fantastic surprise of flavor (who would have thought bacon blue cheese bbq and strawberry??) Yes, it works! Get in there, its for the hella health conscious thats demands good flavor!

Decent- not the best place I've been! I ordered from crisp while visiting in Lynchburg yesterday and did a BYO bowl with grains + salad, I also got the Baja salad for dinner. My BYO bowl was good, but I added steak and couldn't eat much of the steak at all with how undercooked it was. The Baja bowl was delicious, but I got chicken with and it didn't taste quite right, so I ended up picking it to the side and not eating it. I would likely order from here again, but I would forego any protein in my order.

Not a whole lot needs to be said here. If you like delicious, make-you-feel-good-when-you're-done, healthy food made with fresh ingredients then look no further than Crisp! I had the Pesto Chicken Bowl (double chicken add Avocado), it was everything I described above and more. Also got the Peanut Butter Banana Chia Pudding which was the bomb too. Do something good for your body and mind, skip the fast food and come to Crisp!

Great setting with a variety of seating (high tops, low tops & picnic tables) outside. Dogs are…read moreclearly welcome. And ours appreciated the pets from our server. It's next to a small playground and new amphitheater, so I'm sure this place gets quite busy on weekends. We all enjoyed our lunches; just unfortunate that it took well over a half hour to receive them. Since we were traveling home to OH, we weren't too keen for a laid back lunch.

So there were a few good things and a few things that to be improved…read more Pros - It's in a great location. Terrific ambiance. We got seated much more quickly than we thought. One person in our party said her salad had the best dressing she's ever had. The fried pickles were good. The shrimp was good. One bartender was good. Cons - We walked in and basically weren't sure what to do. There was a woman at we thought was a hostess stand, but she never said anything to us. We finally asked if we needed to check in with her to get seated. We did. But it was kind of weird. One bartender was awful. Never made eye contact. Wouldn't take any orders. Acted like she wanted to be anywhere else. I thought the Caesar salad was ok. It came with lacquered salmon. I would have loved the salmon, but not lacquered. It couldn't be made to order. Ok fine. I ordered it the way it was described. There was nothing lacquered about that salmon. It also was shredded on top of the salad and was maybe two ounces. That's ridiculous. Our server wasn't very helpful and not very attentive. I'm sure many people have had great experiences there, but I'm not sure I would take the time to go back.

Dish is my go to for all occasions…read more This visit was with a friend visiting from Georgia. We had items from the basic menu along with the daily specials. All delicious as always. Staff here is always very welcoming.

I just moved to Lynchburg a month ago and experienced dining downtown last night (for the first…read moretime) and it really made me question if I will ever go downtown again to eat out. I have several issues but will start with the first one that really bothers me: 1. As I approached the restaurant I noticed this homeless man walking around the block with a walker. I was in Dish from 5 - 6:30 and this homeless man came in THREE times to go into the bathroom (he was not a customer). This was not only a huge turn off but IMO a sanitary issue of him going into the bathroom doing who knows what. I saw the expression on the waitress face like she did not know what to do. Was there a manager working? Is this how it is at every restaurant in town that they allow homeless people in to use the bathroom? Are there homeless shelters for people in town to provide care and feeding for them? 2. I ordered a glass of wine on the Happy Hour menu and it was weak, like water was added to it. 3. I ordered the Smoke Salmon encrusted in Puff Pastry and the puff pastry was not cooked all the way (it was clearly visible that it was not a golden brown but rather a pale yellow. I just hope my future experiences in this lovely town on much better than I experienced last night. And one more thing, I have stomach issues today, and all I can think of is the cooks using that bathroom where this homeless guys went in 3 times in 90 minutes. I question how this is not Board of Health Violation.
