What 15 diners keep saying
verbatim, from Google“Great food, I always feel super healthy after indulging. Fresh, lots of vegetables and I love the dressing. Great price for the chicken bowl - could add a little more protein.”
“Their high protein bowl is absolutely fantastic!! I loved the pulled pork and the tofu especially. Super happy with the huge portion size for the price.”
“Was looking for a healthy, protein-packed dinner option and I would definitely order from them again! Got the protein lover rice bowl and it was so fresh, and packed with greens and different proteins. Also got the coconut greens smoothie and it tasted so fresh (and not overly sweet)!”
“Lets me just start by saying, I don't normally write reviews unless I really love the food. That being said, I REALLY loved this food :) We order the Waygu beef rice bowl and the Organic Tofu rice & cabbage bowl. Portion sizes were huge! probably even sharable...And packed with fresh veggies. The protein portions in each of the bowls was also very generous. You could tell it was made with care. 10/10. Also would highly recommend getting the chili crisps seasoning on the side. Delicious.”
“Absolutely disappointed by this place. I door-dashed this place and they sent me a photo of my bag with my name and correct receipt, just to cancel my order 2 minutes later by saying they’re closed despite the dasher already having my order and being on the way. The customer service is all AI and no one was able to help. This place is clearly a poorly run ghost kitchen. Do not go here if you’re looking to actually get your food.”
