| - I stopped by for lunch today, and was glad that I did. I'm happy to see a downtown restaurant getting on board with clean eating and offering free range chicken meal options. I was also pleasantly surprised that the place opened on Monday, and just four days later, it was super busy during the lunch hour.
It's definitely a hip, trendy lunch spot. The restaurant isn't very big but has several different tables to eat at, plus a counter and a rectangular bistro table (I think called the community table or something like that).
I had the free range mozzarella sandwich with potato salad and a pickle. Overall, it was good but I thought my chicken was lacking just a little bit of flavor so I added some salt and pepper to it. The potato salad was really good, not too mushy or mayonnaisey. My lunch mates both had the chicken caesar (also free range), which they said was delicious. One friend said that the dressing was fresh and tasted like it was made from scratch.
The one downside was the noise level inside the restaurant. Once the restaurant filled up, it became really loud and we had to talk loud (and basically shout) to hear one another. I wouldn't recommend more than four people to a table during the usual lunch hour.
Eat is a great place to get your grub on. It's cool, it's heathy, and there's plenty of parking around the block. The passion fruit iced tea is also very refreshing, and dare I say, better than the one at Paymon's???
