| - Glow Fresh Grill it is not. =(
An upscale version of The Pickle Barrel - literally. They are from the same owners!
But the commonality does not stop there because the quality of the food is the same.
The one thing that Glow has going for themselves is the ultra cool looking restaurant, with colorful modern decor and arguably a very chill cabana like patio, complete with a firepit on one end that's available to larger groups.
The two times I have visited Glow, I was not blown away or was impressed by the food.
Inspired by healthy options, the food can be best described as reheated and dull, almost lacking any memorable flavors. For a place with Fresh in their moniker, it currently does not deserve the name. The self proclaimed fresh Turkey burger tasted plain, and dry like a piece of cardboard. There was no notable taste to think of. The pan seared crabcake is notable for being cold, and also dry. It arrived at our table looking very unappetizing in presentation.
What's worst is on my 3rd visit for a birthday, most of our group all had some kind of stomach ailment that involved the porcelain throne the following day that we suspect was the result of Glow from the evening before. To add insult to injury, we were also charged a $3.50 per person plating fee for our cake, even when we were informed that we would not be, because of our advanced reservations and the manager at the time of making the reservations (2 weeks prior) had told us so. Upon bringing this to the manager on duty that evening, he would not allow it because he was not informed of this. The final total alone just for plating 15 pieces of cake was over $50!
I cannot recommend Glow unless some improvements are made, for now, Glow only has style to go on but no substance! There are much better options literally a stone throw's away in the same outdoor mall such as: Joeys, Bier Market, Linda, and Jack Astor's!
