I had Go Raw on my to do list for years but never got around to it until recently.
Let me start with the good the female working the counter was very friendly and welcoming after I told her it was my first visit. She suggested juice ( Green Zing- granny smith apples, lemon, ginger) based off my bitter/tart palate I described to her.
I ordered the green zing and the gimme the beet 'cheese" burger with a house salad.
The juice was made rather quickly. I was really looking forward to it. Tasted like motor oil and was "luke cold" pretty disappointing start to my first experience but no biggie.
The beet burger came out and I really enjoy veggie burgers especially house made. The "living bread" it came on had the thickness and consistency of beef jerky but tasted like tree bark. The beet burger itself was only slight less disgusting. I came into raw very hungry so for me to say it was terrible is mostly shocking to myself.
The house salad was the best part as it was mixed greens kale and a flax seed oil garlic dressing that was just OK and that's rounding up a bit. The salad was by far the best part of and otherwise awful meal. I ate the entire meals as I was hungry. After eating I was literately turned off by the thought of more food even if I went next door to get a slice of pizza.
They do not refrigerate or cool or heat items to keep with the "raw" theme. That didn't seem like a big deal to me but only added to the awful tasting tree bark flavored meal I just ate. I like the concept of "raw" and natural yet they put to go items in plastic bags, plastic cups that are not made of corn or anything sustainable or green. They have bottled juices and vitamins in a refrigerator as you walk in but then everything tastes "luke cold" as if nothing is refrigerated that you order.
I wouldn't wish Go Raw on my worst enemy. If anyone wants a free get juiced card with a stamp on it, it's all yours. Skip it and thank me for saving your taste buds later.
