This is a great place to dine if you're looking for healthier food options during the lunch day. They remind me of Souper Jenny but more trendy and modern than her homey aesthetic. I ate there often before I moved to California and the other day when I found myself in the Monroe street plaza looking for a healthy food option, they popped into my head. Lucky for me they had my favorite soup on deck, Thai Coconut Tofu. It's such a delicate and mild flavored soup. I just love the light sweetness imparted by the coconut. The bread game is strong too. Always get a whole wheat baguette for dunking. In addition to the soup we got a side of cheese tortellini with mixed broccolini, tomato and red onion. The salad game is also strong! With moderate pricing (healthy food cost more) and a cute atmosphere, it's perfect for a lunch date and probably even a dinner date (they serve wine). read more

The menu is always changing so you can surely count on seasonality here. Today I had (2 items) the kale and melon salad and grilled chicken. You can see all of the sides in the counter case which Is great The order came with a roll; I chose the pretzel roll; yum!! And the peanut butter cookie to finish it off. The chicken portion is huge so I had plenty to take home for dinner tonight to add to some leftover pasta at home. $10.90 was the damage and well worth it! They have a large patio area with fans. The staff is super friendly. read more

If you are in the mood for something healthy, delicious, and affordable then MetroFresh is the place to be. I love coming here on the weekends to choose from a wide variety of fresh soups and salad/vegetable sides. Located in the midtown promenade, MetroFresh is one of those places you can rely on to provide a quick and satisfying meal. The menu changes daily so there is always something new to choose from. Think Panera but way better! I also know they have a brunch and dinner menu but have yet to try anything on them (I will soon though). Also their gluten free muffins are a must try! I always grab one to-go so I can indulge later, hehe. You can find their daily menu on their website - MetroFreshATL.com before going in. Love, love, love MetroFresh! read more

The folks at MetroFresh are great. Not only did I get service with a smile - one of the guys who works there - Mitchell - let me borrow his portable jump starter so that I could get my Jeep going. Thanks for the help! read more

MetroFresh reminds me of the cold bar/salad area at Whole Foods. I like that they change up their menu daily and it's definitely affordable if you don't have time to cook, feel lazy but still want to eat healthy, etc. All the food is already pre-made so the line moves pretty quickly if you are strapped for time at lunch or something. Everything is priced by plate, so you can get 1 item for $5.50, or 2 items for $10.00 on the same plate. This is perfect for the indecisive person (read -- me) because I just want to try everything. Their lunch special is also a pretty good deal -- 2 menu items, a drink, and a cookie for about $12. I ended up getting the spring mix salad berries and goat cheese, the peach and chicken salad, the duck cassoulet, and half of the heirloom tomato, avocado and goat cheese sandwich. My favorite item was probably the spring mix salad, but I have been missing greens in my life lately so I could be biased. I really liked the earthiness of the spring mix paired with the sweet and tart berries. The goat cheese also adds a really nice creaminess to the mixture. The duck cassoulet was really tasty and I'm not usually a fan of having lots of things in my soups. I mostly prefer broth, but this was really well made. I had mixed feelings about the sandwich. The actual ingredients were great together but I really wish the bread was toasted or not as thick. My least favorite item was probably the chicken salad. It felt kind of heavy and a little too sweet for me. But my advice is, come come come! read more

I searched Yelp for "healthy restaurants" and MetroFresh was in the list of results. I checked the website and liked the meal options that were being served that day, so I decided to check it out. Everything was certainly fresh, and delicious. I didn't realize the sandwiches are served in halves, though (totally wasn't paying attention while they bagged my order). My husband and I were bummed because the turkey sandwich on cheddar focaccia was awesome. Everyone there was super friendly. Between MetroFresh, Ah-Ma's, and Trader Joe's this little shopping center is one of my faves in the city. read more

I've gotten fast food for years here. This was my first time having dinner. My salmon exceeded my expectations. I'll probably go back today.

Absolutely love coming here for lunch when I'm in town. Refreshing, healthy (or hearty) lunches for everyone including kids. I especially enjoy the sandwich/soup/salad combo. The Gouda grit is great as a side but tastes a bit too rich and creamy as an entree. read more

Everytime we have stopped in at metrofresh they have had some sort of special going on. The thing I love about this place is you dont know what the menu is going to be because they change it every day. They serve you a plate like you would at a potluck and all the food is freshly made with great ingredients here. Its a cool place and even though the food is healthy it tastes delicious. I'm lucky this place is close to my house, its always a treat to visit. read more

Went to MetroFresh for lunch on a Saturday. The restaurant is at the edge of Virginia Highlands and close to Piedmond Park. The place is known for its healthy food. For lunch they had salads and sandwiches. The most popular by far of the sandwiches was a turkey wrap. You can get them either as a full sandwich or half with a side "salads". The sides are fresh vegetable "salads". Everything is made fresh and the the taste is great. Great variety, taste and it is also healthy:-) The restaurant has in-door and out-door seating (the patio is not large, but OK). The setting is bright and overall a great way to have lunch. The food is not cheap, but overall it is worth it. read more

If Atlanta lacks something in the food category, it's a place that has legit soup, salads and sandwiches. MetroFresh is an unexpected pleasant ITP surprise, serving just that (and alcohol). Breakfast, lunch, and dinner entrees are all available. We came here for dinner on a dreary evening and had soup and salad with kombucha. I did not magically turn into a knob of turmeric and detox my body. It was just good food. Basically healthy yet delicious food without the 'California cuisine' pretense or some skinny person promising you detox food that's supposed to cure cancer. It's just good food that appears not laden with lard or sh*t. A cute place for a very casual date night. Fast service. read more

Hi We came here for a late lunch on a rainy Saturday. Had not heard if it before. What a wonderful surprise. I had the beef bourginon soup and it was super thick, rich and full of beef. She had a watercress sandwich and said it was good too. Very reasonable prices. $17 for lunch for two people. We'll be back read more

Italian wedding soup today - very salty. Usually good soups here but cook stubbed a tie on this one. Cashier was too busy chatting with coworkers. I gave her a $50. She gave me change for a $20. If I hadn't been paying attention I would have been out of luck and $30 bucks. read more

Best soups and salads in Atlanta. Constantly changing menu, great staff, outdoor and indoor seating available.

I liked MetroFresh a lot. The best thing for me was the kale salad with apples and grapes. I actually went for breakfast so I was happy they had a salad option. It was very refreshing and healthy. Kind of crunchy. I would give the salad a 5. Now hat I'm thinking of it would have loved a side of almond or something. I also had the smoked Gouda grits. Those were very good if you like grits. The restaurant was clean and had an emphasis on treating be earth well read more

MetroFresh has pre-made salads, sandwiches, and soups to choose from. This allows you to get your food very quickly. On the downside, the soup was not hot at all. The employees are very nice and helpful, and they quickly gave me a new bowl. While the second bowl of soup was hotter than the first, it still wasn't at the temperature I prefer. I also got a turkey sandwich, which was tasty, but overall I think at $12 for a soup and small sandwich it was overpriced. Not sure I'll return, but it's not a bad spot if you want a quick lunch. read more

Catching up on some check-ins... This place is always great. I have eaten here A LOT... If you want fan delightful salads that you won't find anywhere else, good sandwiches and soups!!! If you haven't tried this place you are missing out!!! And they finally got a loyalty program... Yaaaaaayyyy!!!! This time I had a Spinach and Beans soup, a salad of Brussel Sprouts/Apple/currants, and a Chopped salad of Broccoli/cauliflower/carrots/white raisins/craisins and probably something i am leaving out... Plus this ULTRA delish Blackberry Cucumber Lemonade... Ummmmm, their food is AMAZING but this lemonade was a Scene Stealer!!!! I imagine I will recreate this in warmer weather and maybe with a dash of Vodka... Cheers!! (check my Photo) read more

MetroFresh - Soup Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

This is the first restaurant I've ventured out to solo during my 6 days in Atlanta. I came here on a Saturday afternoon, hoping to grab a quick bite so I wouldn't grocery shop on an empty stomach. It was pretty empty - one party in side and two out in the patio, and they were playing jay-z. The vibe inside matches the name, I think. Modern decor with updated wood furniture. I liked it a lot. I ordered the Thai trail mix salad which is a cold salad with diced and chopped carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, peanuts, mango, and a Thai peanut dressing. It was really great combination of textures and delicious flavors, and tastes really bright and fresh. The salad cost 6.50 with tax and I originally thought it was small portion for the price when I first saw it served on a plate. However, I found the salad itself to be quite filling and I didn't realize that it's one of those order several items for a certain amount type of place (i.e. one item for $6, two items for $11, three for $14.5). You can include a soup or sandwich as one of the items which I wish I had known before placing my order. I think given how filling the salad was, it was overall a good value. Also, I like that there were vegan options. I was sure I'd never be able to eat out during my time in Atlanta so this was a fine surprise. All in all, I would come back here knowing how it works and try it one more time. read more

I came here for lunch & the turkey sandwich was good. I asked for tomato soup & they gave me something like a brown rice tomato based soup & I wasn't a fan. I ended up throwing it away because I was expecting a tomato paste type of soup. Overall, I would get the sandwich again & try the salad instead of the soup. read more

Some spots don't need long reviews. The food and experience speak for themselves. First visit and I'm fully satisfied all around. Food was great. Music was classically on point! Officially a new favorite in Atl! read more

Touring Atlanta we stopped here thinking to have a fresh, homemade meal. Well, yes and no. Metro fresh advertises with fresh, sometimes locally produced, fresh made products. And that's correct for most of the items. The soups and the salads. But unfortunatelly not for the sandwiches. On the day we dropped by there were only two choices in sandwiches. And it turned out: both made earlier, pre wrapped and terribly cold. The soup on the other hand was very tasteful and fresh made. But the sandwiches were such a dissapointment. Because of the cold, or the pre wrapping hardly any taste. So if you're in for a soup or salad, this is the place to be. If you're looking for sandwiches, don't go here. Most supermarkt deli's do a better job. And excuse any grammar and spelling mistakes. English is not my first language. And if that isn't bad enough, my Apple device keeps changing words into 'proper Dutch'. Yes, you've guessed right, my first language. read more

MetroFresh - Soup and a salad - Soup Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Fresh quality ingredients. Everything about this place is healthy and amazing! Can't recommend this place enough! Anything from the case is so good! They always have some sort of kale salad which is my personal fave. Try the chili on a cold day! Don't forget to try the mixed greens salad they have daily paired with their house vinaigrette. Did I mention they have brunch as well? Grapefruit cremebrulee, egg burritos, and the most flavorful b.el.t.! read more

This place has great fresh cold salads, like the kale and squash and the tuna black bean, however the sandwiches (even if they are made daily) are wrapped in cellophane which doesn't scream FRESH to me. In fact, the bread becomes soggy when they aren't made fresh to order to stick with the salads. Soups looked great too. Defo a place for something healthy! read more

I didn't get the names of the two people working today but they made my day. I work right around the corner so i frequent metro fresh often. I love that they always have a vegetarian option. The food is always fresh and i never feel heavy after eating here. They are on top of it with masks and hand sanitizer when you walk in so that's a huge plus. Thanks! read more

Very friendly staff but worst Bloody Mary I've ever had. Frozen rum drink was awful. Salmon cream cheese bagel and avocado toast were sub par with barely toasted bread and uninspired taste and appearance. Nice people but terrible food and drink. Sorry but that was my experience. read more

MetroFresh is an unexpectedly trendy lunch spot near Piedmont Park. However, despite the fun concept, I wasn't completely blown away by the quality of the food. We have passed this place many times, and decided to stop in for a quick lunch on a Saturday afternoon. Its location in a run-of-the-mill shopping center belies it's delightful interior, with clean white surfaces and California-cool vibes. The menu was varied and reasonably vegetarian friendly, with choices of various salads, soup, sandwiches and assorted deli items, along with an interesting breakfast/brunch menu. I ordered the lentil soup, which was actually very good, and the quinoa cauliflower salad, which was less good- a bit bland and in need of some salt. She ordered the kale salad, which was fine, and the vegetarian sandwich, comprised of brie, apples and arugula on focaccia, which was pre-made, a bit dry and not suited to either of our tastes. We also had glasses of a crisp vinho verde- their wine menu was very large and a welcome, if not strange, addition in a deli setting. A plus was the friendly service on the covered patio. I appreciate the thought behind this unexpected lunch spot, even if the food didn't knock my socks off. read more

I am so disappointed in the customer service at this restaurant. I love the food and have been a loyal customer for years but I sent an email to management twice regarding their soup container lids. They were not secured twice causing two of three containers spilling, staining my car flooring and I ended up with 1/8 of the amount of soup in both containers! This happened twice - both times it was the broth that was the issue. Fast forward, I went in today and mentioned it to someone whom I guess was management and his response "yes, we've had problems with the lids fitting properly." He didn't apologize, offer a gift card, just nothing! Keep in mind this is about $25 worth of broth that was spilled! Metro Fresh, please do better by your customers. So disappointed read more

I visited here with family and really enjoyed their salads and inclusive atmosphere! The staff is very sweet and attentive. Their homemade basil dressing is so good also! Much love read more

The food is fresh and healthy for the most part. I like that it's clean and that the servers are friendly. When the sun is out I highly recommend sitting outside! The only reason I'm not giving this place 5 stars is because the prices are moderate, yet I feel a bit too high for what is offered, and the food is nothing spectacular. Yes, you will find something there that you like, and yes, it will probably taste good, but it's not one if those "omg-nomnomnom-i-just-found-my-food-soulmate" experiences. It's good. Period. Nothing spectacular. Regardless though I like having the opportunity to get something fresh and healthy quickly. 3 stars it is for me! :) read more

MetroFresh - A typical combo: (squash curry) salad, with a (chickpea) soup. - Soup Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Wow, I was reading my original review today and was shocked at how much I used to admire this place. I swallowed the facade hook line and sinker, but a year into my ATL stay I basically don't even go here anymore. At some point they started refusing to honor simple requests. I'll give you an example. Their menu changes daily. Sweet, right? (Not really. It may change every day, but the truth is it changes every day for 7 days and then come Monday it just starts back over, so if you go in every day for 7 days you'll see a different menu, but if you go in every week on the same day you're going to see the same menu every time.) The changes themselves are mundane and uninspired, as in the breakfast burrito: store bought flavorless spinach tortilla with scrambled eggs, cheese, spinach, and the meat of the day. I always used to order a burrito with no meat, because in their infinite wisdom the ever-changing menu doesn't ever include a meatless burrito. Now though, they won't even make a burrito and leave off the meat. So imagine, me coming in and asking them if they will please omit the most costly element in the burrito and her saying flatly, "Nope." I'm, sorry, I think I just came in and basically offered to pay you $8 for $1.10 worth of food and you said nope... Obvious conclusion is that the food is pre-made. Kind of a drag... So, below is my original review. As usual it is filled with my honest observations punctuated by my original joy of eating here, and so as not to be vindictive I'll leave the insights, but the descriptors have all been amended and any changes I've made will be in parentheses. Anyone who can make kale yummy is a (professional cook) as far as I'm concerned. Its apparent everything on the menu is made with (food), and I (used to) go here every chance I get, which basically means breakfast and/or lunch two days a week. The menu changes daily but consists of about a half dozen breakfast options until 11, and about as many salads, sandwiches, and full blown dinner entrees. Prices are reasonable considering everything on the menu is (food) and probably at least one of the following: local, organic, sustainable, recyclable, fairly traded, filtered, hormone free, or eco-conscious. The decor is cute and looks expensive. The chairs and barstools all have backs and the tables don't wobble. These are hallmarks of a good (dining room) to me. The patio is clean and comfortable and has a designated "dog park-ing" lol. A foodie would have to look hard and long to find something wrong with this place (which, obviously I've done now) (C+) read more

MetroFresh - Kale is the new black - Soup Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Back when we lived in Midtown, a night starting out with "Where do you want to go for dinner?" frequently ended up here. With new items daily, we never knew what we'd find (although we could pretty much rely on their chili to be on the menu). From their tasty soups to their flavorful salads, we could always find healthy fare here. Even knowing that I could get a deep-fried, bacon-wrapped Twinkie just down the way in the same strip mall, I would be fittingly sated after meals here. Not that it stopped me from wanting it. read more

If MetroFresh were a person, he'd be a younger, overly earnest gay dude who, because it's a rainy Monday morning and he looks you right in the eye, smiles, and says, "Hey there! How are YOOOOOU?!" you think he's either high on crank or completely full of shit. But then you get to know him and realize, holy crap, he's actually LIKE that! So you become less suspicious of him actually learn to like him a little. You'd hang out with him more often if only he were a little less chipper because, c'mon dude, life is nasty, brutish, and short. No, I don't need a hug. Fine, hug me, but don't expect me to LIKE it. Damn, I liked it. That's MetroFresh as a person. MetroFresh the restaurant is green (as in the color, not the environmental movement) and happy and serves pretty good food. I was suspicious at first, but their buy one/get one free summer entree special won me over since it made their somewhat higher price point more palatable. Yes, I said you can be pricey, MetroFresh. No, MetroFresh, don't ply me with your dill and tomato gazpacho. Fine, I'll EAT your soup, but don't expect me to LIKE it. Damn, I liked it. read more

I now wash my hands of this place. I have walked in here the past 2 Fridays in a row hoping to get score some Matzah Ball Soup. Both times the sign outside as well as the sign inside said "Chicken Matzoh Ball Soup". Both times I came in at about 5 pm. Both times they had chicken soup, that contained nothing but matzah ball fragments. The guy this last time said "sorry we run out". Then take the words "matzoh ball" off the sign b/c it is essentially chicken soup now. Okay I am done kvetching. Just one more thing: PUT SOME BALLS BACK IN THAT SOUP OF YOURS! read more

MetroFresh is the Souper Jenny of Midtown, offering delicious, fresh, overpriced salads, soups and sandwiches. The menu rotates daily with usually divine choices. I most recently attacked a salad comprising mixed field greens, squash, peppers, mushrooms and goat cheese, dotted with the most delicious basil vinaigrette. I wish MetroFresh sold that by the bottle! I envied my mother's salad: baby spinach, juicy blackberries, kiwi, blueberries and shaved Parmesan. MetroFresh makes sandwich preparation look easy, but I can never recreate the seemingly simple turkey on a pita, or ham on a soft roll. You get what you pay for: chic sandwiches, snobby soups and salads dripping with elan (and dressing). read more

A disappointment. Really expensive for what you get. The girl behind the counter was talking to us and scratching her arm over our two plates. My fish was good enough--but overcooked and my boyfriend's chicken mole was not really a mole except by name.employees were nice. Each dish comes with a side, neither of our sides was half as good as a side you might get in the Whole Foods buffet. The price was $15.96 per dish which is ludicrous when comparing quality and price to places like Superica (where gourmet steak tacos are $15.95) or Gios Chicken (where a huge plate of perfectly juicy lemon chicken, or a clean fresh plate of pasta is also $15.95 both of which come with an exquisite side salad). If you are going to charge these prices, then you need to step up your game. We'll probably never eat here again. Service was nice and the space was clean (and almost empty because people probably know better than to eat here). Free parking in the TJs parking lot. I think Atlantian Yelpers are too generous with their ratings and some places like MetroFresh have raving reviews which is a huge disappointment when someone actually goes and eats here. read more

This is exactly the type of place I like to eat at for lunch. I'm a huge fan of Souper Jenny, but it's too much of a drive to go often. Metro Fresh is a great substitute, and it's within walking distance of my place in Midtown. I subscribe to their daily emails, and it's fun to read over their always-changing menu. I'm a health nut and have always wanted to try prepared salads at restaurants, but most places usually offer only heavy mayonnaise-based chicken and tuna salads. Metro Fresh is one of the only places I've had trouble picking just two of their options! A triple combo plate costs $12 (without a drink), so I try to stick with the 2-sides for $7.70. It's a fresh, light lunch that doesn't leave me feeling guilty, bloated, and ready for a nap. All in all, it's good, healthy food that changes daily, the service is professional and friendly, and the prices are ok. I highly recommend it, and I suggest subscribing to their daily menu email!! read more

This place was yummy! The menu changes every day (?). I think. So, you walk in and they have the day's selection on a chalkboard. Everything is pre-made, so you can see what you're ordering. The prices may seem just a tad high, but the portions are HUGE. They have a nice assortment of things, so there is something for everyone. I just happened to be carbin' it up the day I went with a friend, so I ordered half a sandwich (with goat cheese and avocado) and some noodle yums (with mushrooms and Asian/sesame dressing). On the other side, my friend is a rabbit and ordered a salad with chicken. Okay, an omnivorous rabbit. They probably served her, like, two and a half chicken breasts, so she had left overs. This was all around $10. It can get extremely busy at lunchtime, so make your decisions quickly, or the guys behind the counter get a little edgy. read more

What's happened? After years of service and flavor consistency the train has left the tracks. My last four visits have been met with inaccurate orders, cold or no coffee and gristle laden turkey. Unfortunately it doesn't stop there. I'm only bringing attention to the issue because Metrofresh has always been so good. I find it concerning that there have been problems every time since my visits have been scattered over the last three months. I hate to call it quits on a favorite, but I'm close. Please address whatever the problems are, I want the old Metrofresh back. read more
