| - The food is tasty enough, but it isn't worth it for the price (organic or not.. there are many other places that use organic ingredients for similar prices and they are not this cheap with portion size!). I ordered a 2 option combo today which costs a bit over $10 + tax. They use the small type of takeout container and they only fill it about half full(!) which is ridiculous. I had the lentil dahl with the rice (they said 1/2 portion of each can be considered 1 option) and the millet salad. What I don't get is why they call it a "combo" when it is basically two items of anything - and that salad and rice are also considered as the options you can pick. Most "combos" at most other restaurants include salad and/or rice, and you get to pick 2 mains. Once I realized what little food I would be getting, I felt too under pressure/nice to cancel my order so I just paid for it. The tiny portion size isn't fair to the customer for this price. I was still hungry after and had to buy something else to eat from another business.. but because I already spent my lunch money here, I could only spend $3 more later somewhere else. It was definitely not worth the price and I don't plan to return. I think it was probably only about 1 cup of food in total (a few tbsp of each dish).
I notice other reviews say the same thing (pricey for what you get, small portion sizes). I suspect this is the reason their restaurant is often pretty empty or only has a few people, when this kind of healthy food is very popular in Toronto. I bet if they didn't cheap out so much on the food, they might balance their finances through selling more food because of more people coming in to eat. People want a place like this for lunch, but not when you leave still feeling hungry and it was your lunch break (your one chance to eat for the work day) or that you did not get a fair amount of food for the price. That is the reason I won't return - not because of the taste of the food.
Nov 15th edit: I wish the owners would open up their minds and ears and listen to what people are saying. If multiple people have said the portion size is too small for the cost, then it should be something you think about. This is likely why your restaurant is so empty most of the time. We are just trying to help give you honest feedback so your business can get better and draw more satisfied customers - listen instead of getting defensive!! If you want to charge this much for this little food, then you need to change the look and service of your restaurant: it will need to be a proper sit down restaurant with table service, and nicer plating. Only then will people be okay with the price for the tiny portions, organic or not, tasty or not! For cafeteria style service, with pre-cooked food under glass, the portion size is NOT WORTH THE PRICE. Listen to your (ex) customers! I will not be returning here because it is a rip-off.
