| - Quick summary: Food is good but overpriced and loses its attractiveness since it's served in a to-go box. The pressed juice was a complete disappointment! Good service at the register.
Update 4/14/17: Ordered French quarter again and it was good but after I was done saw a review here on Yep about undercooked shrimp now I am a bit worried but I think mine was cooked enough.
Kudos to manager and her response to my Yelp review. I substituted the red onion with yam and French Quarter was still good.
Did not order any drink this time because price too high for what you get.
Previous review 3/23/17:
Detailed review about the meal:
I liked the "French Quarter" meal I ordered which comes with shrimp, brown rice and greens. However, there was way too much red onion which overpowered the meal. About half way through, I picked out all the red onion (there was a lot!) and ate the rest of the meal.
If I go back I will probably order the French Quarter again and ask for no red onion (even though I do like onion) or substitute it for something else.
The amount of the meal was good but if you are really hungry or like big meals, this is not enough food. I wasn't that hungry and thought about ordering something else but decided not to because of the prices.
Detailed review about Pressed Juice:
I will NEVER order a pressed juice at Grabba Green again. I ordered the "Green" juice and it tasted like 10% juice and 90% water, seriously, I think they added water to make it hit the 16 ounces, which appear small for the $8 price tag. I also asked for ginger as an add-on and it tasted like it had NO ginger (they charged me $.75 more). I asked the woman who made it if she added ginger, she said yes, but if she did it, it was not enough. I doubt any ginger was added because most people can taste the tiniest sliver of ginger immediately.
Detailed review about the Service:
On the bright side, the girl who was at the register was very helpful, after asking a ton of questions I asked her if she was the manager and I found out she had only been there three days and knew a lot about the menu and she sounded excited about all the options. If it weren't for her, I would have given this review two stars.
Prices:
My total was over $20 after tax which explains why I labeled this place as "pricey". In other words, if my wife and two kids were with me (family of 4) we could have spent $80 just on lunch if we each got a juice (which tasted like water). If you are taking your family and you are on a budget I would say you would want to try somewhere else. This is good if it's just you (or maybe one other person) and budget is not a priority.
Final comments:
Try one of the meals and decide for yourself if it is worth paying $10.50 again in the future.
Do not order one of the pressed juices, (unfortunately I paid $8.75) instead, go to ChopShop, Raw Juice bar, or Whole Foods for the large juice.
