I feel like I should write a review since I've been here 4-5 times since it opened a month ago hehe.
I've always been a fan of Hello Bistro since first going to the Oakland location when I lived there. Bobby fell in love with their salads and i dig the super burger and fries (& salads, but i'm more of a french fry person lol) I actually remember writing in my review for the Oakland location "it'd be awesome if they put a HB downtown". It's like I have a magic genie or something :O
The reason I waited a little for the review is because the first 2 weeks the wait time was a little long due to just opening and everyone checking it out. I didnt want to put in review that I waited forever for my food because I knew eventually it would be fine. But now even when it's busy, the wait time to get your food is not long at all.. so that's a plus.
They have specials here that I dont remember seeing at the other locations (forgive me if i'm wrong on that fact) You can get a grilled cheese, soup & drink for $6.99 or a super burger, fries & drink for $7.99. The grilled cheese was tasty and i've had it both with their tomato and chicken noodle soup. I felt the chicken noodle soup was really lacking chicken but eh what can ya do. The grilled cheese was fine and it helped my tummy a week after being sick and my appetite not getting back to normal asap.
I havent had a salad from this location, but every other location I experienced a great salad.
I'm so thankful and excited this is downtown since I spend 40+ hours a week here. I love the build your own salad idea and they have a lengthy list of choices to put on your salad. Check it out if you've never experienced Hello Bistro!
