    Inside seating
    Alyssa Marie H.

    Similar modern decor. Friendly cashiers and servers. Not much has changed inside since I came here in high school. Except they no longer offer the chicken salad sandwich. Today, I had the grilled chicken sandwich with caramelized onions, mozzarella, and bacon. This was decent! The side of sweet potato fries are excellent with the pesto mayo. Just trust me and try it!

    Fish Wrap with side of Vegetables

    Having not been to this restaurant for a very long time, we have it a try last evening and were pleased with the food. Orders are taken at the counter and then food is brought to the table by a staff member. I had the fish wrap which was crispy fish and cabbage wrapped in a tortilla. The spicy dressing really added to the flavors. My husband ordered the Strawberry salad but instead he was served the grilled salmon salad. He didn't return it because he really liked the flavors- nicely cooked salmon and mandarin oranges in greens. Galaxy Cafe has a full gluten free menu too! We'll be back!

    Very small power bowl.

    I like them okay. The food is decent and they are a bit more expensive however I do get them pretty regularly. That being said, the tiny portion I got yesterday on my power bowl has made me decide to start ordering elsewhere. I paid $16.99 for a very very small meal and ended up having to cook bc the portion was so small. It is time to move on from them.

    A few things about this diner... Overall.. the food was good, even though one of my bacons was a little undercooked. We were basic in what we ordered, first time so we figure you cant mess up eggs and bacon and toast. The service wasnt.... Bad per sé, but they cant call themselves a diner when you order at the counter and then its brought out. It takes away from the diner experience and what if the service sucks? Do i ask for my tip back that you pre charged me? I ordered an a la cart pancake.. not bad, but, for 3$ for a 4 1/2 inch pancake, you can at least put a dab of butter on top and warm syrup... so not the case here. The food was good but absolutely overpriced.

    Pancake Breakfast

    Visited Galaxy Cafe last week for breakfast. It's a "order at the front then find a seat" establishment and they have a regular menu and gluten free menu. I ordered the chocolate chip pancakes with a side of potatoes and my boyfriend got the breakfast sandwich. We also split a carafe of mimosas.

    Burger and fries.

    Great burger and fries with IPA. Typical eat breakfast there. It's all good. Staff is friendly and efficient.

    Truly delicious!!!! Asian Seared Tuna Salad & Chardonnay
    Dayna G.

    Needless to say I was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo disappointed to hear that my ALL TIME FAVORITE SALAD MEAL ahi tuna salad was deleted from the menu that I was forced to pivot to this salad - ugh - I honestly tried to keep an open mind and I'm glad I did. It truly was delicious but it's not the same. I miss my GO TO SALAD! Damn it I'll miss my all time favorite salad. So sad.

    Brie Burger* with side
    James K.

    We ate here yesterday for a late lunch and enjoyed it. We were able to walk up to the counter and order immediately without much of a wait, which was nice. They then brought the food out pretty quickly too, and everything was warm. I got the build your own burger and it was delicious! The fries were warm and very good as well. 5/5. My fiancé got the Brie burger and she enjoyed it, saying it was 4/5. Five stars though for good food & reasonable prices!

    Grilled Chicken Chipotle Wrap* with side (Sweet Potato Fries)
    Charisse G.

    Wow wow wow wow wow. This place is outstanding!! First time I ordered I had breakfast, I got the Migas Breakfast and it was DEEELICIOUS, the migas were so perfectly done. They came with a side of refried beans and tortillas, although I don't think the tortillas were homemade. Didn't really eat the tortillas but I didn't really need them for my migas, and the migas were top tier. Only con is that I had added breakfast sausage to my Migas Breakfast for an extra charge and they didn't put my sausage with my food even though I was charged for it, DoorDash had to pick up their slack on this and thanks to DoorDash being so great, they more than made up for it. DoorDash shouldn't be having to make up for restaurants forgetting items paid for though, establishments need to do better on carefully reading and packaging orders. Food from here was outstanding though. I also got the kids breakfast with blueberry pancakes and skillet potatoes, the potatoes were so well seasoned and very good. Next time I ordered here it had just passed breakfast so I ordered lunch and dinner items. I got the Grilled Chicken Chipotle Wrap which was DELICIOUS. My side was sweet potato fries, the sweet potato fries I don't recommend unless you're dining in because they get cold very fast and just don't travel well. I also got the Grilled Chimichurri Steak Dinner with whipped sweet potatoes, which were so good and my steak was perfectly tender, very good steak. Only thing is it was more so medium rare than what I ordered which was medium, there was some blood on the container wrapper inside the box and the very center of the steak was pretty pink well red-ish, they needed to cook it just a tad more to not have the more red center and a more brownish pink than red. It's a super tender steak though no matter how it's cooked and very flavorful. I added the Pesto Pasta to the steak meal even though I already had the whipped sweet potatoes and both the sweet potatoes and Pesto Pasta were both good. It also came with a side salad. Now onto the best part even though all of it was yummy. The Chocolate Torte, oh my if this isn't the most delectable thing I have ever had. Do yourself a favor, if you order anything from here, make sure you at least get the Chocolate Torte, it is the best thing I have ever had. Photos don't do it justice. Even if you're not a big chocolate or sweets person, neither am I but this thing is DELICIOUS. Chocolate Torte is a hit and a must get

    Power bowl with salmon. Not very full. Disappointed

    The Buddha bowl was great. Full of vegetables and lentils, etc. I can't say the same about the Power Bowl. It didn't even fill up the bowl. It had salmon and brown rice but little else as you can see. I'm disappointed to say the least. It did taste good. Salmon was very tasty.

    Chicken Scraps

    I ordered a chicken bacon mozzarella sandwich, I got a cheese sandwich. When I pointed this out, I got this hot mess. It chicken scraps, tough, chewy, overcooked, and cold. Not to mention the leftover bacon. I paid $50 for 2 sandwiches and 2 iced teas. Absolutely disgusting, zero stars.

    First time visiting with mom!

    Is it terrific marketing or terrible planning to put MAD Greens in the same building as CAVA? I…read morefeel like the kind of people who are interested in a healthy bowl of nourishing food would be split not quite down the middle between both of these restaurants. Are they hoping the better-known Mediterranean bowl place will be so full they can catch their overflow? People in a rush might skip the line and try this less-known healthy bowl food restaurant instead? But I digress... I had tried CAVA four times or so and every time I saw MAD Greens and thought, Someday I'm going to try that place. Well, last Sunday was the day. I got to eat what I wanted because I was eating solo. I'm going all in on this trial run, I thought to myself, so I bought one salad for that day and ordered another to be my lunch the following day. I walked in and was the only customer in the restaurant. I was greeted warmly by the young man behind the counter, who called me queen and had no complaint about my asking for no tomatoes and the dressings on the side. I tried the Greek one and the sesame sriracha one. The place was clean enough and the employees seemed to be enjoying themselves, chatting and goofing off a reasonable amount. The bowls were great. I chose the Greek one first when I realized it had pita chips inside. It came with two dressings, the creamier of which was a.m.a.z.i.n.g. Confession--I am a recovering picky eater and I hate cucumbers, but I love sneaking them into my body underneath delicious dressings and salty kalamatas. The second day I ate the sesame sriracha situation. It had tofu, which tbh I have never successfully eaten, and it was really good. It reminded me of the paneer in Indian food. That salad had edamame too, so I was definitely satiated and I'm guessing I got plenty of protein. Overall, I will definitely go back. CAVA has had some consistency problems for me, as well as some of my favorite offerings being limited-time or seasonal (isn't it the worst when restaurants lure you in with seasonal offerings you can't count on?!), so I'm glad to have had such a positive experience here and I'm hoping they will be consistently good.

    I'm gonna be honest... I'm not much of a salad person cause I love to leave it to the rabbits and I…read morecall salads "Rabbit food" lol. However, I must say that MAD Greens makes some MAD GOOD salads. My go to is the spicy bacon bowl with boil eggs. I feel better about my life when I order this because I'm getting my greens in, getting my protein with the chicken, and I'm actually enjoying my rabbit food (aka salad). This is a must have for me. Coming from a non salad person ( I know... it's okay to judge me) I really enjoy their salads and their spicy bacon bowl makes me happy. Another food item that I love is their Mac and cheese. It's so tasty. I love it here and love their salads because the greens taste fresh. #madgoodness

There is a very small building with indoor seating, but it only has a restroom and a handful of small tables. I do want to give the benefit of a doubt as I was part of a fairly large group meet up, so some of the delays in service and getting food was probably due to the large number of people for a very small kitchen. I also 100% have to blame the meet up organizers for not letting us know it was outdoors! The place is BYOB although they do have a selection of bottles nonalcoholic drinks. Even though it was outdoor seating at picnic tables, there was one girl taking orders, and another guy delivering food, we did have to wait a bit for our food, but the point of the meet up was chatting and socializing so it wasn't a huge deal. The food arrived hot and was pretty good. My main complaint is that the portion seemed a little small for the price point, I got the Tom Kha soup and $13 for a pint of soup and a scoop of rice seemed high. The flavor of the broth was good but there were definitely more onions than chicken! That being said I liked that the spice level didn't seem to be lowered- I got a 3/5 and it definitely made my nose run a bit XD All in all I think to really get an accurate read I'd have to try again under more normal circumstances.

With a point system to accrue benefits over time, and at each visit, and impressive happy hour specials for both food and drinks, it's hard not to visit more than once. Every member of service either greeted us, or supported our needs with a smile. Calvin, especially, made sure every step of our experience from walking in through ordering was special. While we didn't indulge in the beverages, we enjoyed the $10 burger special which also came with fries! We paired this with a side of a $6 Caesar Salad (really tasty and thrown together with thinly sliced cabbage, roasted chickpeas, and popcorn chicken). Next time, I'd really love to try the truffle mac and cheese (which was also on HH). We weren't aware of the upcharge for swapping out the slice of American for Cheddar (+$1.50), which would've been nice to know ahead of time, since we both got burgers and wondered about the swap...but lesson learned. Also, BIG lesson learned...the parking validation is for only two hours! We were having such a lovely time at Dish Society, but exceeded the 2 hrs (by an extra hour) and got charged a significant amount for parking. Next time, we will certainly park on the street. We tried reasoning with the parking attendant and they wanted no business in understanding we were patrons of the restaurant. It was certainly an unexpected shock, and didn't leave the best final touch of our evening (specifically in that parking garage). It's unfortunate that we got penalized for enjoying our time at dinner.
