| - I really like that Mill has another option for the working crowd nearby. With our office down the street, I was growing pretty tired of the uber college pub-deli-pizza routine, in fact I drive away from this areas most days. But NCounter is a nice addition: cool space and a much needed revival on this corner. The remodel was done beautifully and the place gets so much more traffic now than it ever did with a crepe and coffee shop. Kudos to opening something comfortable enough to sit down in but quick enough for take out.
The food has been decent in my experience. Having ordered several meatless entrees from both the breakfast and lunch menus, my consensus is that the quality and creativity is pretty much what I'd expect from any Mill Ave establishment. Not knock-your-socks-off, but much better than drive thru. The presence of some healthy options is appealing. The egg white omelette was ok, but relatively flavorless even with tomato, peppers (still raw), avocado and cilantro. I usually get the Portobello sandwhich veganized with no cheese or mayo, but they've messed up my order a few times for take out, meaning I don't realize the cheese is on there until I've walked back to the office. I do wish the counter staff would pay a little more attention when customers order, but they aren't rude.
Can't say I'm a regular, but it's good to have a decent nearby option that's not burgers and fries. I do love scheduling "meetings" here just to get out of the office.
