"I 've been to this location and the now closed Short Pump location many times. I used to really enjoy coming here on my lunch break. Let me also say that I 've supported this restaurant all through the past two years when times weren 't normal. I 've gotten carry out on multiple occasions, and I 've also ordered a number of times from the food truck.Unfortunately since during and after COVID I 've just had way too many experiences where I 've felt unwelcomed. There is always plenty of seating inside, but during my visit today during lunch there was not one person inside. In other recent visits the place has also been basically empty. The staff to me are the restaurant 's biggest problem. They literally make customers feel like they are a burden as soon as you walk in the door. There is never anyone one working up front when you enter, instead they always come out from the back giving you the impression you 've interrupted whatever they were just doing doing. Tik Tok maybe?? After you order, while one person prepares your meal the other is already ringing you up at the register and hollering the total down the line to you while you are still in the process of your order with the other person. Today, as well as every other recent visit, instead of ever being asked if you 're eating in or if you want your order to go, it just gets put in a bag in a to go container. Basically they 're like ok, here 's your salad now please leave. That was not said obviously, just the vibe they give you. I ate my meal in the car, and honestly the ambience was better. Maybe it had to do with the fact that I 'm not wearing a mask anymore, especially in a completely empty restaurant, that the masked, self-righteous woke staff feel the need to ostracize me every time I come in there? Aren 't we beyond that level ridiculousness?Regarding the food, it was ok, and I 'll give the food one extra star. I mean its hard to screw anything up if it has bacon on it...even a salad, right? I am, however, amazed that a restaurant featuring salads doesn 't have romaine lettuce as an option for greens. Lastly, I 'll say that I don 't need a response asking for another chance. Scrolling through the reviews I 've seen a lot of that. Truth is that I 've given a lot of chances already and this review should have been left six visits ago. I 'll wish the ownership best of luck. I don 't want to see this business close like they had to do with the Short Pump location, regardless of whether I patronize them again or not. I think the current staff representing the company are doing it a great disservice."

"The food was good, the service was friendly, but the music was quite loud, and the prices seemed high for what we received. We stopped by for a light dinner and found the restaurant well-lit and inviting. The staff who greeted us were warm and very helpful. However, I felt that the menu could have been clearer. I ordered a grilled Caesar salad, while my wife opted for a half grilled turkey panini and a bowl of baked potato soup. The service was quick, and our meals were prepared right in front of us, as this is a self-service restaurant rather than one with table service. My salad was quite enjoyable—crunchy and fresh, with ingredients cut into neat bites. The chicken was cubed, and though I couldn’t tell if it was grilled, it was fresh like the rest of the ingredients. My only complaint was the bowl; its flat sides made it hard to mix the salad without spilling and it slipped around a bit. My wife found her sandwich to be very good, while she described the soup as average. The atmosphere was typical of a fast-food place, which isn't necessarily a primary consideration when you go to a salad restaurant. The loud music made it difficult to hold a conversation. In terms of pricing, I felt it was on the higher side for what we received. If I had enjoyed the same meal at a sit-down restaurant with proper plates and utensils, the price would have seemed reasonable. However, given the self-service setup and the use of plastic utensils and containers, the costs struck me as somewhat steep. Despite this, I must say my salad was very good."

"So, I placed an order via the online app, for convenience because as we all know, lunchtime can get a little more than hectic. I placed my order around 12 for pickup at 1. That’s a whole hour. Not to mention there was a downpour. I got to the store at about 1:20. I approached the order pickup area and was greeted by an associate who looked through the orders(there were about 6) but was unable to locate mine. She proceeds to ask another associate if she received/fulfilled the order. Just my luck, nope! Then, she asks the supervisor to come over and she does. She looks over the same salads in the pickup area for my name. Then, heads back to the computer where the orders are printed. She asked if I could show her an order receipt. I did not have my phone on me, so I had to go back to the car to retrieve it. I walk back in and head over to the pick up area yet again only to have to wait another 3 minutes for her to look at my order on my phone. She then prepared my order, walks over and hands it to me. Ok, so what happened?? Like was the order received or did someone handoff my order to someone else? Because there’s a printed sign that says” please show your proof of order/confirmation” something to that degree. At the end of the day, what are we honoring? No one apologized, nor was the supervisor at liberty to tell me what happened. I ordered online to save time. Instead, mine was wasted. Not good for business. 2 stars based on the quality and quantity of the salad."
