The burger could have been from Wendy's for how small and generic the patties were and how soggy the bun was. It had a few sorry little slices of avocado and some chopped red onion; again, just not much to get excited about. The fries were fine, though very skinny. Service was low-key and my food was ready quickly; in general this is good, but it added to my sense that the burger was glorified fast food. The restaurant has lots of seating.

Imagine fast food, but healthy... and actually tastes good…read more High quality ingredients, with real preparation (roasted veggies, pickled items) and even fun seasonal options (candied pecans and honeycrisp apples for fall) The options are endless. Every thing was delicious. Portions are absolute huge. At first, you'll think the bowl is not full until you realize the bowls are huge. You could easily feed two people with a single entree. The staff is always ahead of schedule. I've never walked in and had to wait. Plus, the place is super clean and welcoming.

Roots is currently one of my go-to's - I regularly order lunch for pickup while driving to my…read morein-office work day. That means I haven't actually eaten inside Roots itself; maybe one day I won't be picking up my meal on the go? But until then, I can't comment on what a sit-down experience here is like. If the name didn't give it away, this is an eatery focused on "natural foods", AKA whole foods. So if you want a salad or a bowl, this is a good place to get one. They have a limited number of "set" menu items, and they let you make custom creations, too. This is where I reveal how lame I am, because I found my favorite order back in 2023 and I've never changed it up! If you see me here I'm probably ordering a Mayweather salad, which includes kale, bulgur, sweet potatoes, beets, red onions, goat cheese, and chicken. One day I might shake things up and try their cobb salad...but until then, I'll let the Mayweather continue to delight my tastebuds. Disclaimer that Roots is not the cheapest eatery on the block, but for me, it's my weekly treat. I could never make a salad as tasty as theirs, and a good (i.e. healthy and yummy) meal makes my in-office day a little better! I can't wait to pick up my regular order again later this week (although I might steal another reviewer's idea and get the BBQ tofu instead of chicken...it sounds good AND it would make me a slightly less boring regular!).

I had my order delivered. For $32 I got a cardboard container (similar to Chinese takeout) that was…read more3/4 brown rice. It had tofu, which I didn't want and 4 tiny little bits of chicken, which I did order. I added broccoli and got 4 tiny little pieces of yellow broccoli. I added mushrooms and there were 4 slices of mushrooms, a couple pieces of cilantro, and maybe 5 pieces of baby spinach. I guess they say that the sauce is absorbed by the rice, because there was no coconut curry sauce. The dish neither tasted of coconut or curry, even though the name of the dish is Coconut Curry. I asked for lime and got a lemon. This was my first and last time buying anything from HoneyGrow in Pittsburgh. I am glad that other people had good experiences. I am sure that it is better if you order it in the restaurant and see what they are putting in your dish.

I was in the mood for something healthier, so I tried SoFresh for the first time since I was…read morenearby. Ordering online was easy. I got a warm bowl with brown rice, spinach, cucumber, apple, edamame, citrus chicken thigh, and organic tofu. The portion was solid and filling, especially with the two protein add-ons at extra cost. I also tried the avocado creme sauce, but it was a little spicier than I expected, so I was glad it came on the side. Without it, the bowl tasted a bit plain. I'd still come back and try a different sauce or mix-in combo because it feels like a solid healthy option. Also worth noting: adding a smoothie to a bowl order drops the price to $6 instead of $8, but you have to add it through the bowl order rather than as a separate item. The Tropicolada smoothie was really refreshing and I'd definitely order it again.

You can create your own bowl or salad or wrap or choose one from the menu. They also have smoothies. I built a bowl/salad with spinach and red quinoa, and added mushrooms, broccoli and cucumbers. You get 3 toppings and you pay more for extra. Every protein is an additional cost. I got the chicken (around $3 additional). And then you get 1 included dressing, I got the agave mustard. I was pleasantly surprised by the bowl and thought it was tasty! I will say I wish you could get more included with your bowl, places like sweetgreen or cava or even chipotle lets you get however many toppings you want, and it feels more limited here (unless you want to pay extra). It would be nice if they allowed you to have 2 dressings too, 1 seemed kinda stingy. Good for a healthy quick casual meal in Pittsburgh!

The potato and leek soup was so comforting and rich but not overly heavy. I am in love with this place. I want more soup now.

People seem to go a little crazy for the sandwiches but alas I can't have them since I'm gluten free. They are very good about labeling their offerings so it's easy to figure out what's gluten free, vegan and vegetarian. I got the bean and chorizo soup and took some split pea soup to freeze (it's my favorite soup). The soup came out pipping hot that I had to wait a while before eating it. However it was good, not too spicy. My friend had a the girlfriend sandwich and it looked super yummy. They have limited seating so you might have to get it to go! They have some cute antiques in there, definitely a retro vibe.
