    Harvest bowl with extra Jalapeño sauce. My favorite.
    Omar S.

    Harvest bowl with jalapeño sauce. My God... this sauce is spectacular. I asked about where I can buy it and found out they make it in house. I would buy gallons of it if I could. I ask for extra sauce on the harvest bowl. It's a killer every time. Try it. Won't regret it.

    Sprout bowl with a brown rice/quinoa base, miso tofu, broiled brussel sprouts, all the included add-ons, and the miso ginger dressing. Yum!

    This is my new favorite place to eat on campus! The staff is always friendly and the portions are always generous (I can never get a lid to fit on!). I thought it was a bit on the pricey side before trying it but the food is super tasty, the flavors are pretty original, the quality is good and fresh, and the food is really (surprisingly) filling. Overall, I think it's a fair value. I've eaten here about five times now trying something new each time and I've been consistently impressed. I hope more locations get opened up around SD!

    Sprout Bowl: Brown Rice, Brussel Sprouts, Power Beans, Kale Avocado, sesame seeds, seaweed flakes, and Almond slices
    Stefan V.

    One of my favorite lunch spots in PC. Don't bother with the breakfast, you can do better. My go to is a Sprout Bowl because it's the perfect sized meal for when I'm in need of some hearty energy between my classes or after a workout. My favorite thing about this place is that it's healthy and delicious! It's something that I would never feel guilty about afterwards *cough* Panda Express *cough*. This time I got the quinoa base with brussel sprouts and power beans. Brussel Sprouts are definitely the go to option for veggies, because they're filled with nutrients like protein and omega 3s and so good. Sweet potatoes are second. As far as protein goes, my favorites are power beans!! for the nutritional benefits and candied pork when I'm feelin' a bit indulgent. The duck was anamazing option too, but unfortunately they've discontinued it from the menu. For sides, I love green onions, bean sprouts, a few jalapenos if I'm feelin' caliente, (edamame and corn for a Macro Bowl). For sauce, Kale Avocado or go home! All the toppings are good, but I usually don't prefer raisins. To sum it up: Power beans and candied pork are delicious with Brussel sprouts and go HAM on the toppings. And then send it home with Kale Avocado! Yummy and wholesome. You will not be disappointed. I rate it 4/5 because I'm not in love with ALL their options, but the ones I mentioned make it worth.

    Harvest bowl! Really tasty.

    This is the NEW best place for lunch on campus IMO. Unfortunately, the line is crazy long. I am betting that macro bowls is the next craze, and I am here for it. This place does it well! There's a TON of options for grains/veggies/toppings/proteins/dressing. I got the Harvest Bowl (there's pre-designed bowls or "make your own" but I was too daunted by options to create my own) and it was: cous cous (super fluffy and good),citrus chicken (tender and flavorful), apple slaw (amen), microgreens, sweet potato hash (nice, nice), and lemon-cashew dressing. I also added almonds to my bowl, and this thing is delicious. The flavors work well together and it's not too heavy. It is a generous portion and really satisfying. It feels worth the $8.95 (prices range up from there depending on what you get) and the quality seems good! The staff are friendly and helpful, also! They said the duck is super popular, but there's also a lot of vegetarian/vegan options. There's definitely something for everyone! Welcome to UCSD, S+S. I will be sad of your long lines but happy for days when I forget my lunch at home!

    I got the Duck + toppings (nori, nuts, jalapenos, bean sprouts?): was pretty darn good. The bbq duck has a more American flavor bbq than what I was hoping for. The avocado + kale dressing is the breadwinner. The micogreens, sweet potato + kale, and Apple slaw all blended together... and honestly I don't even think I got the right ingredients bc I didn't taste any apple flavor... I have no idea which toppings are which so I'd have to go back to check it out.

    healthy new lunch place in food court
    Kelly R.

    Had lunch here the day it opened! Was invited by some friends to try it out. Super glad I did! I had the buddha bowl (I think it was called) with sriracha flavored tofu. There were lots of options depending on what you like. PROS: Lots of vegetarian/vegan options Gluten free options very healthy Good portion sizes CONS: Possible long line (not their fault, just the UCSD food court trend @ lunch) This was a much needed addition to The UCSD Price Center food court. Will definitely be going again when I'm in the area!

    Crispy sesame tofu w chimichurri sauce in a sprout bowl :)))

    I come here all the time and the workers are always super sweet! The crispy sesame tofu is probably the best thing I've ever gotten on campus and off of it, great food and great people all around :)

    a bowl of rice and broccoli

    Food was good until I found this piece of plastic. I mean it shouldn't be that difficult to keep your food clean, there was practically no line. Overall decent.

    Macro bowl

    Really satisfying , and easy to go bowl take with you on the go. Recommend if you love eating bowls like chipotle

While I appreciate the offerings are local, organic, unique, plentiful, and downright flavorful, I was disappointed with Portions appearing much smaller (almost half) than advertised.

We also got the lentil quinoa bowl, but there was barely any quinoa in it, but the chicken was very flavorful and there was good pairing with the lettuce tomato's and onions.

    Oh my gosh. This place is so good, I highly recommend checking this place out…read more I had the Moussaka (Lebanese eggplant stew) and I throughly enjoyed it. It was so flavorful and the portions were pretty big. I also got to try the cheese fatayer, I loved the pastry it came it, it was great. This place has great vegetarian and vegan options along with some gluten free options. The menu is marked very well and they make it easy to navigate. The staff were friendly and the food came out fairly quick. The restaurant is on the smaller side. There was seating available for large and smaller parties. From the dinning area, they had a window into the kitchen so it was fun to be able to see the cooks make the food. They also had cute decor that added to the ambiance of the restaurant. There is plenty of parking available in the plaza that it is in.

    The food was actually really good, but the service was terrible…read more The staff seemed condescending and like they didn't want to be there at all. Not attentive, not friendly, just kind of dismissive the whole time. We ordered a bunch of dishes and to be fair, everything we tried tasted great and was flavorful so you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The cheese knefe was a bit disappointing though. It's supposed to be crispy, but it came out mushy and kind of fell apart. The rose water reduction also made it way too sweet for my taste. Still decent overall, just not what I expected. But honestly, the service alone ruined the experience for me. I wouldn't come back. Food: 8.5/10 Service: 0/10

It's a great place for those with dietary restrictions or for those who are trying to eat a little bit healthier. It helps that there is always a ton of parking available. I almost always get the chimichurri steak with garlic parmesan mushrooms and mashed potatoes. But honestly, you can't really go wrong. It's build your own plate. My mom loves their salads and my husband likes to order their sandwiches with mac n cheese and cauliflower. I've never had a side that I've straight up disliked, though a special shout out to the mushrooms and truffel fries. You can order at the kiosk or at the register. My mom likes to order at the register, but the kiosk almost never has a wait. We've never had to wait too long for our food to come out either. Water and to go boxes are self serve. They're conveniently located at a little self serve station by the door. They have a nice patio and outside seating area, though it can get a little loud when it gets busy. Some of the furniture could definitely use a little refresh (some of the tables are getting sticky/tacky due to the varnish aging or something similar). Though, overall the decor is cute.
