| - Crisp has had the right idea for a while - crisp (for lack of a better word) greens, fresh vegetables and other salad yummies, cooked to order proteins, and a selection of dressings you wish you had in your fridge. Want to pick out exactly what goes on your salad? No problem. Feeling less creative but still want something super tasty? Choose from the awesome menu. So opening a second location would seem kind of a no-brainer. (And thanks for putting it a stone's throw away from my house in the Outback strip... a few doors down from Thai Thai)
if you've been to the Elizabeth location think slightly smaller seating area, same earth tones inside, same menu, larger parking lot, no bar seating, no cute patio, and not as good people watching (it's kind of at an odd part of the strip). If you've never been to Crisp, you're in for huge salad portions, some soup and sandwich options, and a fairly casual environment where you can eat and go fairly quickly or take your time and maybe eventually get to the bottom of your salad bowl.
I enjoy the atmosphere of the other Crisp more, it's a little bit more bustling, a little less sterile feeling - but this location still cranks out tasty salads and I see myself stopping in again in the near future. The only note is I don't think the employees have figured out the acoustics of the place just yet, although there were about four tables eating and conversing it all seemed to be drowned out by gossip and "omg"s &"totally"s coming from behind the counter and beyond.
