| - I drive past this place at least once every day, and assumed it was going to be just another sit down overly trendy Gainey restaurant. What it actually is completely surprised me. The best way I can describe it is the deli counter at AJs on steroids.
Just from what I saw they have salads, sandwiches, a hot carving station, an ice cream counter, a bakery, sushi, gourmet cheese, wine and pretty much any kind of side you could want from hummus to pasta salad.
Being in a rush, I opted for a ready made chicken ceasar . Henri is right, it's not fast food-y type cheap ($9 for a meal-sized salad, and, i think, $6 without chicken), but it's also a lot better than you'd get from a drive-thru. Along with the fresh greens and tasty dressing, you get nearly an entire chicken breast that actually tastes like someone tried to make it taste good, which is pretty unique for many take-away chicken ceasars.
While mainly a take-away establishment, they do have some limited seating.
So, if you're like me and work in the Gainey area and are really looking to get away from fast food for lunch and a place where you can quickly grab a variety of different tasty things for lunch, this place is an awesome choice. If you're looking for fine dining, you'll probably be disappointed.
