| - Compared to all other restaurants, I would probably give this place 2 stars, but based on "you get what you pay for," I'm bumping it up to 3 as perfectly acceptable.
Yes, there are lots of salad and topping options, plus an acceptable soup and carb station. Everything is "fresh" in the sense that it doesn't often seem like it's been sitting out all day.
That being said.. you know those bags of already-cut-up salad they sell at the supermarket? To me, they never taste as good as when you buy an actual entire head of lettuce. They always taste more bland and maybe just a little plasticy. This is what the lettuce here tastes like. The other toppings also look and taste like they came out of a factory / bag.
But can you really expect hand-chopped salad and fresh-grated cheese for $10 a head for dinner? Not so much.
Busser/server Amandi is the most hyper, friendly person you'll ever meet. Sometimes she can be a little obnoxious / intrusive, but I would much rather interact with someone like her than someone who is rude or negligent. And you can't fault a girl for having spirit! Last time we were there, we told her it was our friend's birthday, and she made him a happy face cookie with ice cream and got the cashiers to sing him happy birthday. If you ever meet her, you'll never forget her!
