| - I've been here a few times now, with mixed results.
The Turkey Rueben was only okay. I appreciated the quality of the turkey, but the sandwich didn't really impress me flavor-wise. The Mediterranean Turkey Panini wasn't toasted, and was quite salty. The bread that the Turkey Panini was served on was kind of awful, and the sandwich was a mess. So, I haven't had much luck with Gooseberry's sandwiches.
Today, though, I had a great meal. I tried their salad bar, and I was really impressed. I've never seen a salad bar with this many options, and there were several soups to choose from. Everything seemed very fresh, and my salad was delicious. The honey mustard dressing was quite gelatinous, but had a nice sweetness. The pasta salad has been routinely bland, and that recipe could really use some sprucing up.
The newly renovated space is somewhat awkward, but overall very nice. There are plenty of windows to let in some sun, and it's been a pleasant place to sit and eat.
I've only been to Gooseberry for late lunches, and it's been pretty dead in there around 2 pm. Perhaps I'm just missing the lunch crowd?
Prices are pretty reasonable, with sandwiches under $10, which includes a side. My salad today was pretty large, and cost under $5.
Staff is friendly, and food comes out quickly.
I'll definitely be back for the salad bar.
