| - I've been waiting for Hello Bistro to open ever since I took it upon myself to investigate what was actually going into this savanna of a shopping complex. Finally the hour is upon us and they are open!
I knew that it was owned by Eat'n Park so obviously it was a given that it would be a place with sure-good food (word to the wise: my usual go-to place for a simple meal when I'm hungry is Eat'n Park). But from what I heard, this place was supposed to be more like a Panera with table-side service, and it was! Your meal is brought to you after you order at the front desk and they give you a number to put on your table.
It's bigger inside that it looks on the outside. The decor is super trendy in regards to it being somewhat more modern with a fun flair; they have a chalkboard in the middle of the seating area where you can write whatever you want.
They specialize in salads, burgers, and grilled sam'iches. My two times being there already, I would recommend the apple & cheddar grilled cheese or the rockin' moroccan caesar salmon salad. Also try their handmade pumpkin milkshake to get in the fall season!
They offer takeout as well, which is ideal for ordering ahead of time before going home after work. Since it is owned by Eat'n Park, you can expect to order some of it's originals like a superburger, Eat'n Park coffee for $1, their classic soups (like chicken noodle, potato, and chili), and of course smiley cookies!
I give this place a four star rating because all-in-all it's a great, simple little café-like place to get a good meal or take something on the go. The place itself is visually appealing and the food is very tasty. If you're looking for something trendy and "hip," then this isn't the place for you. But if you want a good meal and a good atmosphere, stop in and say Hello! ;)
