| - This review is actually for their catering - though I hope to visit their store when I can, based on my pleasant experience of their food at the event I attended.
I can't speak to their value as I don't know what was paid; however it was at a fundraiser for a not-for-profit and we were informed that they provided a great deal as a result - so they earn points for that.
Before I was aware of their approach and values (local sourced, healthy, seasonal, etc...) I could taste it in the food. All the ingredients had a natural freshness and taste about them, and though the food was well prepared and seasoned, the quality of the food itself is what stood out.
I was very fortunate that a lot of food was available, so I was able to have 3 proteins (don't judge) of salmon, roast beef and lentil and chickpea fritters. Each were near perfect, and though I'm not a vegetarian, it's actually the fritters that I'm dying to try again. The salmon was wonderful and I was very impressed out how tender and properly cooked the roast beef was. It's not too common in my experience to have great roast beef at a catered event (when the food is transported).
And on the subject of vegetarian dishes, how is it that the root veggie slaw and beet and feta salad are also vividly in my mind? Everyone at my table and earshot were quite vocal with their satisfaction in the food.
If you're looking for catering, I would certainly recommend that you look more into FARMR. Though I can't speak to the food at their restaurant, I would feel very comfortable directing people to it based on such a positive experience I had.
