F2O Fig Salad**
Stephanie G.

We needed fuel after the gym and came here for quick healthy eats. The ambiance is a bit outdated and it just felt dirty walking in, though it's nice to see that you can still order at the counter with an actual person instead of the self-order kiosks. The employee who took our order was super friendly and patient since it took us a minute to figure out what we want. We ended up ordering the fig salad with chicken and Mediterranean bowl with salmon. They brought our food to our table and we didn't wait very long. My salad was only 1/2 size but added protein and hit the spot. The chicken was not dry and my salad was dressed properly- I hate a wet salad. It also had all the sweet and crunchy toppings! I forgot about the croissants they serve on the side and these are delicious. My husband got the bowl could easily be shared between two people. Needless to say, we finished our food full and satisfied.

1/2 Caesar Salad**
Maya B.

I've been coming to this fresh to order location since my undergraduate days and it never disappoints. I dream of the sandwich I get every time which is the Asian chicken crunch panini. Plus they have amazing Caesar salad and warm bread rolls. Staff is always friendly and they bring your food out to you if you dine in. It's also never crowded with a massive amount of seating. Underrated Decatur lunch or dinner spot!

Great meal here yesterday! I had the combo with the half Asian chicken panini and half fig salad. It was a treat and I will be back!

Fresh to Order - Decatur
Erick G.

This nice quaint restaurant is perfectly located at a corner spot with parking nearby and a great atmosphere all around. The staff are always helpful and attentive. The menu is quite robust with many different options and combinations. However, it can get a little pricey if you start to alter their base offerings a little too much. Their sandwiches are good, taste healthy and are very well presented. But the portions a little small for my taste. Except for the salads.. they load those up! The cream of mushroom soup is fantastic! Best one I've had. So I definitely recommend that. Overall - the restaurant is a solid choice for a quick power lunch.

Let me start by saying this restaurant is a 10 out of 10. From the fresh, great tasting food to the manager Jaron taking care of my daughter and I this restaurant is definitely a hidden gem in Decatur. Parking near by is free for 2 hours which I didn't know so we parked at the lot a few streets over. I was nervous due to the homeless people on that street. However as we got closer there were a lot of restaurants, people walking with pets and just being friendly. We sat outside on the patio and the manager came back and forth refilling drinks, conversing and being friendly with everyone. A different customer parked on the street and forgot to pay the meter so he asked her if she wanted him to sit with her kids while she ran and paid to avoid a ticket. She was so gracious and he even gave the kids cupcakes while they waited. After we ate he asked where we parked and when we told him where he walked us to the car and thanked us for patronizing the restaurant. I cannot wait to return. FYI, healthy choices were to live for.

The food is very good. For traveling all day it was a great option for a healthier meal. The place has a good atmosphere and great food. The building could use some maintenance in and around the restrooms. The parking is okay if you park around the back and walk in. The Main Street was parked up.

Grilled Salmon Entree  1/2 Market Salad** Rice
Rebecca H.

Visit: 1/1/22: The service was great for our visit. The food is superb. Customer service was excellent. It was a rainy day so we could not eat outside but it was not busy inside and they abide by COVID policy. Touch less menu, mask required, seemed clean and spacing between tables. Bathrooms were clean and they checked our table frequently to make sure our needs were met. . The only issue was toward the end of our visit. A random male came up to the window and began yelling obscene things at us out of nowhere. Then he said he had a weapon and walked off. We actually left right after that because we were not sure where he went nor if he would come into the restaurant. This had NOTHING to do with the restaurant, they can't control what happens outside but we just did not feel safe in the climate. He seemed to be in mental distress but not our circus not our clown. Be safe and always be observant!!

Great food. I ordered the salmon hush puppies and a salad which were both good. The hush puppies were very flavorful with a little kick. Salad has chicken and veggies; really good!!!

Brittany F.

Good food and good service! I'd heard great things about Fresh to Order and visited on a Thursday for a work lunch meeting. We were promptly greeted and given a run down or the various menu options - and there are A LOT! If you are trying to stay healthy, there are definitely several options available for you, which I appreciated. I ordered the salmon with rice and it was very good! I was a bit caught off guard when the food came out because the salmon was very thin and almost looked like a pork chop to me. But once I got over that, the flavor and texture was very good. The manager came and checked on our group several times to make sure we were taken care of which I also appreciated. Parking was a pain. So be prepared to look for street parking around the area and give yourself some extra time to do so. Great lunch option in the Decatur area that I look forward to trying again!

This past Saturday, I was blown completely away by the ownership mentality, attention to detail, and unwavering desire to achieve guest satisfaction, exhibited by F2O Assistant Manager, Jaron. When I presented a loyalty/gift card for balance inquiry, I was informed that the program had been replaced by another, and the remaining funds could not be confirmed at POS. Jaron immediately joined the cashier at the register to determine the issue. Jaron leaped into action requesting my membership info and email address, assuring me he knew the person to call for resolution. When they had not answered or returned the call (probably due to it being Saturday at 8pm) Jaron stated he would follow up with me as soon as the call was returned.. I was more than prepared to pay for today's order and address the gift card issue on Monday, during the corporate business hours. Before I approached the cashier to place my order,Jaron smiled and again assured me he would resolve the issue and get back in contact with me. He then utterly surprised me by offering to comp my purchase... WOW!!! I was already quite impressed by Jaron's flurry of actions thus far, as well as the fact he deftly continued to run the shift simultaneously. Jaron's above and beyond gesture to turn a problem into a solution, thoroughly warmed this retired District Manager's heart! If I were still in the business, I would soooo steal this gem! Barely 10 minutes after leaving Fresh To Order with their delicious calamari and ale laced tenders, I received a call from Jaron. The corporate contact had returned his calls. She confirmed $66 was available on the card. Jaron informed me how to swap the old card for a new active one next week. I asked Jaron to use the updated info to charge my $23 purchase. Jaron again thanked me for my patience and understanding and stated this meal was on him for the inconvenience. Kudos again to Jaron for making customer satisfaction his priority. Kudos to Fresh To Order for facilitating an environment that nurtures ownership mentality and 'Can Do' management... The food was excellent too!!

Salmon with Coconut Curry Sauce and Rice
Tanya B.

I was actually on my way elsewhere and came across this restaurant and I'm glad I stopped in. There's a nice outdoor area to eat but I ended up dining inside. Menus were available upon entering and after reviewing the menu we approached the counter to order. I ordered the Salmon dripped with Coconut Curry Sauce and it was delicious. It came with rice. Their prices are reasonable and they have the best lemonade I had the mango orange lemonade it was so good. My daughter ordered grilled chicken tenders which came on a grit cake. She enjoyed her lunch as well. They had quite a few selections I wanted to try on their menu. Next time I want to try one of their bowls. Anyhoo great eats I'll be returning. Check out my pics

It's a walk up window spot with the menu and a bell, when you're ready to order, ring the bell. The service is friendly and succinct. Non invasive and just helpful without asking when needed. The seating area is a mix between covered and uncovered, with a small speaker playing contemporary tunes at a respectable level. There are string lights above, and I can only imagine how beautiful this all looks at night. I'd read a LOT about their fish sandwich. That it is a good size helping. That it has a great light fresh vinegar sauce with thinly sliced carrots and other crunchy veg. The fish tasted fresh fried. And I have to say, this is the Best fish sandwich I have ever tasted. I only am upset I hadn't come much sooner. I will have to return, probably on a monthly basis for that fish sandwich. There are enough pictures out there of the sandwich. But I also had the Thai basil lemonade and it was a nice pairing. Not a waste of time, effort or dough. Just go.

So far I've tried the cheesesteak, smashed potatoes, mac salad, quinoa bowl and lamb burger. All are flavorful and just different from what other places are offering around the area. I'm not super crazy about outdoor seating only (and the huge fans blowing everything around) but it's just this place's style and vibe. The good food and service is worth it!

Since it was a nice day outside, we decided to dine al fresco. Once we were seated, we encountered another wait, but this time it was because they hadn't assigned a server to our table. We had to get someone's attention because we noticed other people seated after us were being waited on. We ended up with Sienna as our server. She started us off with complimentary bread. We decided to order our cocktails, appetizers, and entrees since we had been waiting. I had the sangria, and my husband had the limoncello. We enjoyed both cocktails. For appetizers, we had calamari and cheese sticks, and the cheese sticks were definitely our favorite--they had a unique twist. For entrees, we ordered the lamb ragu and the chef's special, which was seafood ravioli. To end the night, we had the brownie sundae with salted caramel gelato. We thoroughly enjoyed our food and drinks. Although the service was a bit slow at first, Sienna was attentive. We look forward to visiting Paolino again in the future.

Ugh, they are closed for the time being. The building they are in did not renew their lease…read more Stupidity! Tried this place out for the first time a few weeks ago. It's adjacent to a parking deck and small. Very cozy, though! The menu is simple and it was a one-man show that day (other staff had left due to closing). LOVED IT! The coleslaw was really good and the Sammie was probably one of the freshest I've had. We had to wait a bit due to it being just him but worth the wait. I did the hot chick ... yeah, I can get away with saying that ... and it was huge, overflowing, tender and fresh. This is a SOLID spot. I was told they'd be re-opening nearby and I hope that's the case. They were BUSY as well so it's clearly not a customer issue. Check them out when they re-open. Simple and amazing!

The sweet potato fries ALONE... Makes this 5 stars. Ok... Sweet potato fries AND the comeback…read moresauce. Mmm... And the ATL chick. Ok listen, this spot is in the cut wedged between Bank of America and the back of Cornerstone Bank. It has about 7 booths and 4 tables (mostly 2 tops). Customer service is warm and friendly, it always feels like you've known the guys working for years. Now the food...O.M.G. My favorite is the ATL chick which is juicy fried chicken breast tossed in buffalo sauce and... ANNNND... lemon pepper. Cmon. We're in ATL. What other way is there?! Then it has ranch drizzled on top and dressed how you want... lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle. Even the bread is yummy. The sweet potato fries are crispy and airy and go great with the comeback sauce which is whatever smoky heavenly concoction they came up with as a sauce. Listen if you're in downtown Decatur... Do yourself a favor and get here! There is street parking available and you can pay by app or at the meter. It's about $2 for an hour. They also serve salads, other sandwiches, and breakfast. Small collection of beer, wine, and cocktails.
