I love the Lake Street location. The store is always super clean and inviting. The staff are always friendly and caring even , when it’s busy. Most importantly, the food is always delicious and fresh. It makes eating better not seem like a chore.

I ordered the PB&J and it was amazing. One of the best smoothies I’ve ever had. Pricing is reasonable and service was fast. I would absolutely come back.

계란, 아보카도, 야채, 치킨 등등 건강한 재료에 맛있는 소스조합 음식들을 찾을 수 있는 곳. 커피도 괜찮은 편이고 음식 준비도 빨리되고 프로틴 쉐이크도 맛있음

I placed an order ahead through the app. Although my promo didn't apply when I called the store the representative was swift to correct the mistake and order pickup was smooth.

Great bowls, ideal for takeaway. Fast service and there is also an option to pre-order.

The food would’ve gotten a 5 star Cause it was really tasty but when you are paying .99 cent extra for something like Feta cheese and you see a small amount. I give a 4 star review the service was fast. But just keep in mind people want what they paid for in the economy, we are in today

Unfortunately disappointed. My wife and enjoy "fit food" and we thought this place would be a perfect place for us... Not so much. We ordered the southwest wrap which came out as a salad (no biggie), Mexicali bowl, vanilla latte protein coffee and a regular coffee. Everything was below average. The coffee drinks were not good. Regular coffee was watered down and generally not a nicely flavored coffee. Mexicali was very very wet and salty. It was on the verge of just being slop from a cafeteria. The SW bowl was just ok, not a whole lot of flavor.
