    Build Your Own Rice Bowl
    Mirian G.

    Today, I found myself really craving a fresh salad or bowl, so I turned to Yelp to see if there were any great options in Waterbury where I work. As usual, Yelp came through for me, and this spot was the second recommendation. Since I've been to the number one recommendation a number of times and wasn't in the mood for poke, I decided to give this one a go. I headed there for lunch with three of my coworkers. The place is pretty tiny and has only counter seating, but we decided to take our orders to go. The service was super friendly and quick, and it was definitely bustling during the lunch rush. I can totally see why it's so popular! I went for the burrito bowl and swapped out the rice and beans to make it a bit more low-carb friendly. I added steak for some protein and paired it with a Detox smoothie that had acai, berries, and almond milk. I'll definitely be back since they also offer wraps and açaí bowls that I can't wait to try. Another fantastic find!

    Outstanding barbecued chicken salad
    Janice Marie M.

    I did a Yelp search for the best salad near Waterbury Connecticut and read the reviews, with my staying at the Courtyard Marriott. I ordered the barbecued chicken salad which was to die for. I met the owner who said that this is their most popular salad. I had not eaten breakfast and was on work calls all morning with a need to do take out and come back for a 1pm call. This was a great choice and I plan to come back again. 10 out of 10 rating. Superb! My thanks for a wonderful and healthy lunch!

    Glow smoothie
    Erin S.

    I recently stopped in and tried the Mexican salad (Romaine, Onion, Corn, Tortilla Strips, Black Beans, Avocado, Aji Verde) and the Glow smoothie (Orange Juice, Carrots, Mango, Pineapple, Ginger.) I thought both were absolutely delicious. The dressing on the salad was refreshing and had a wang to it that I can't wait to try again (or try to replicate at home.) I did not add protein to the salad, but I'm sure that would have only enhanced the taste. I thought the price for the salad was very fair. I wish there was a bit more (of everything) in the container, but that's because I loved it. The smoothie was also a delight. The brightness of the citrus contrasts nicely with the peppery bite of the ginger. The mango and pineapple just brings you to the beach. Initially, I thought the price for the smoothie was a bit high until I recreated it at home. After spending the money on the ingredients and including the labor and service- the price is fair. If you are seeking a lighter alternative for your meal, then I highly recommend Greens and Proteins.

    The bowl ordered was delicious and fresh. They had run out of wraps so my husband did not order. Honestly it was a significant wait as the store was busy at lunchtime. This would be a challenge if I was on a limited timeframe. Workers seem pressured and weren't exceptionally friendly as a result.

    Salad made to order!
    Megan H.

    Stopped in for lunch and we both ordered salads. Their special BBQ Chicken was very tasty & definitely is not your typical salad with the different toppings, everything goes together perfectly. I then ordered a salad made to order which was great so I could accommodate my dietary concerns. They have a large variety of salad greens, proteins & toppings! We are looking forward to some soups this Fall, hoping they will be homemade & fresh. The restaurant was very clean, bright and extremely inviting. The staff was very friendly & took their time preparing our lunch, they even chatted a bit with us which was nice for a local business. We will definitely be back!

    The burrito bowl!  Deliciousness!
    Laura M.

    I order DoorDash from this little gem of a place regularly. Friday was my first time stopping inside to get an order for take out. It's immaculately clean and all of the salad, burrito bowl and smoothie ingredients looked very fresh. I ordered a burrito bowl with chicken. It came with brown rice, pico, avocado, black beans, tortilla strips etc. it was so delicious and filling and the price was comparable for a healthy lunch in the area. My daughter always gets the build your own salad! I will definitely be back and continue ordering from this establishment. My only wish is they stayed open a little later for dinner hours, perhaps until 7-8pm. That would be most convenient for me since I work and don't get back into town until after they close.

    Must add the avocado makes it even better!
    Katherine V.

    I work in Waterbury and I love that they are on Uber eats. I like to eat healthy so this place is perfect!! So far I have ordered here a few times. Although I have never been to the actual location i have seen only good reviews that it is clean and friendly. My favorite is the bbq chicken salad and I add avocado. I've only tried 3 shakes so far, and all of them were delicious. I want to try other things, but I love that salad so much I may just continue to order it every-time. I would recommend 100%!

    Romain lettuce and mixed greens, green peppers, banana peppers, olives, feta cheese, chicken salad with Craisins and walnuts.

    Still thinking about our excellent experience here! The inside is absolutely gorgeous, looks a lot…read morebigger than I remember it. Beautiful large bar, they also have tables and booths in the bar. Finally a restaurant that has comfortable seating! All the bar and dining room are very good quality comfortable padded seats. As someone who had chronic back pain for years that's so important when dining out. Now let's get to the food! The menu has a lot of Asian flair, very unique combinations and the things we tried were excellent. We started with the gochujang wings, juicy, good size wings, very well cooked. The sauce was delicious and paired well with the pickled veggies. My partner had the duck and absolutely loved it. I had the hanger steak... And let me say I'm extremely picky with my steak. One of the best I've ever had out. I like mine well done and it was still very tender, flavorful. Great size portion, came with fries and it was served over sautéed squash and zucchini. I went over the deep end and ordered the Keylime pie because it was served the way it should be, with a meringue! It was super sweet and delicious. Can't wait to return!

    My wife and I decided to try Good New for a late lunch. The atmosphere upon entering was inviting…read moreand spacious, we were immediately greeted and seated at a very comfortable booth in the bar area. The wait staff was professional and efficient. Farm to table was the theme and we were both excited for the new experience. We placed our orders for salads and burgers with a focaccia bread to share. The salads and focaccia arrived promptly and absolutely presented amazingly! Fresh doesn't do this place justice and the portion size was almost overwhelming.. My wife stated her wedge salad with warm bacon, crumbled blue cheese, pickled onion and other ingredients may be the best salad she had ever eaten and couldn't have been more fresh, my street corn salad, was equally amazing and fresh with just the right amount of individual ingredients proportionately arranged to satisfy your tastebuds with each bite. The smash burgers arrived right on time as we finished our salads . My wife had the Good News Burger with Fresh-ground black angus, new school American, baby gem, ripe tomato, pickled red onion and their good sauce on a toasted brioche, I had the Truffle Smash Burger a Freshly ground black angus, truffle cheddar, caramelized onions, local mushrooms, truffle fondue also on a toasted brioche. The experience and the freshness of both our meals were all we had hoped for as the flavors exploded in your mouth with each bite! I highly recommend this gem of a dining experience nestled in the quaint town of Woodbury, CT!
