The food was good overall, and we enjoyed the quality and flavor of what we ordered. However, we…read morewere disappointed with our experience regarding dietary accommodations and ingredient transparency. My girlfriend has a very strict diet due to food sensitivities, so before ordering she specifically asked about the dough, bread, and flours used in the food. Unfortunately, instead of receiving details about the ingredients, she was simply told that she could eat it. Based on that information, she ordered the meal, but later had a reaction to the dough that was used. This was frustrating because the situation likely could have been avoided if we had been given accurate information about the ingredients from the beginning. We completely understand that not every restaurant can accommodate every dietary restriction, but being transparent about what is used in the food allows customers to make informed decisions for themselves. The food itself was good, which is why we're giving 3 stars, but the service on this particular issue left us disappointed. We hope the restaurant can do a better job of providing ingredient information when customers ask, especially for those with dietary restrictions or sensitivities.

The avocado toast is what lost them a star there wasn't much avocado there, but a lot of arugula. Next time we will try some more items and see if we can update to a five star review.

I enjoyed my Cuban sandwich while my boyfriend enjoyed the Blackened Salmon sandwich. There's some seating inside but we took our order to-go. While we were waiting for our food, we checked out the market side of the building. They sell a lot of niche brands within a category of an item (ex. independent, small batch chocolate instead of large company chocolate). There's a fair amount of parking in the lot, but I can imagine on a busy day that it may be a little tough to find parking. If you're ever in the mood for sandwiches, would highly rec this place!

Kale Me Crazy is one of those spots that makes you feel like you've got your life together, even if…read moreyou just rolled out of bed pretending you hit the gym at sunrise. Walked in and instantly knew this place takes health seriously. Clean, sleek, super fresh vibe. It feels like the type of café where your smoothie has more frequent flyer miles than you. The service was cool. The girl helping me was upfront and hilarious. She flat out told me she doesn't even like greens, so she wasn't recommending anything with kale in it. I respect the honesty, but I also feel like maybe we should have people making the smoothies who actually care if they taste good. Just saying. I grabbed the Powerhouse Smoothie. It sounds elite with avocado, blueberries, strawberries, cherries, cashews, flax seeds, almond milk, and vegan protein. The ingredients? Perfect. The execution? Ehh, solid 4 out of 5. It'll fuel your day but let's not pretend it tasted amazing. I felt healthy but also lowkey like I was being punished for wanting gains. The menu overall is stacked though: * Açaí bowls and oats for that island breakfast vibe * Cold-pressed juices that scream "I care about my organs" * Poke bowls, salads, wraps, sandwiches, healthy shots, specialty drinks The place gives upscale, health-focused energy. You could be in LA, Miami, or the Amalfi Coast but you're right here trying to level up. Five out of five for the spot overall. Service, ambiance, menu variety. But let's get more people blending those smoothies who actually care about the flavor. Your health journey shouldn't have to taste like regret.

The food was fresh and flavorful, but still a salad. The salad I tried was exactly what I hoped for in terms of quality and taste, but it did seem like it was thrown together pretty hastily in the back during the lunch rush. I The biggest drawback for me is the pricing. While I understand that fresh and high-quality ingredients come at a cost, the portions and price point feel a little steep for what you get. It is not outrageous, but it is something to keep in mind if you plan to stop by. Maybe this is a spot for a quick visit if you're needing a healthy, but quick, lunch.
