| - I used to think this was the best lunch option on Craig Street, but I'm not so sure anymore. Their food is OK, but nothing to write home about. And it costs you a pretty penny.
The standard soups are pretty decent; I like the tomato feta, and the white turkey chili is great if you like turkey and beans. I have tried some "special" soups of the day that really missed the spot. Fortunately, they can give you samples of soup before you choose to order it -- don't be shy to ask for them!
Their salads are reasonable -- the greens mix is fresh, and the meat is fine.
I've also tried the pesto chicken sandwich, which I like (although the chicken isn't the best quality), the italian veggie wrap, which I found to be way too oily and heavy, and the BLTTA, which I did not like. The "avocado" part of the BLTTA is some kind of soft guacamole-like paste clearly squeezed from a tube. Don't expect fresh slices from an actual avocado!
Their desserts always look super appealing, but I always regret them once I get them. They are super heavy...TOO heavy -- either saturated with butter, or sugar, or both -- I often feel sick after eating a whole one! They are also not cheap!
All in all, I would expect the quality of the food here to be better for the prices they are charging (you'll easily have a $10 lunch here). If you want to give it a try, the best bargain is to get soup. Oh yeah, and the other reviews are right about the shitty checkout-line space!
