This place reminds me of Panera Bread from back east!
Location & Aesthetics - Located at Litchfield and Bell in Surprise.
Lots of parking space and the restaurant is spacious, clean and well lit. Noise level isn't too bad.
Menu - very extensive and spans about three walls. What's nice is the soup menu is clear and separate from the others, e.g. salad, drinks, entrees. They're all on separate menus.
Service - Staff was super friendly, helpful and answered any questions we had.
Food - I ordered along with my party, ordered the Pick 2. I had the newly released flatbread - Thai Chicken with the bowl of salad and the Strawberry with Ginseng smoothie.
The flatbread reminded me of a taco and one in my party said it reminded them of a Naan bread. It was well toasted and filled with lots of chicken and other stuff and there was that definite Thai taste of mixed sweet, tangy, spicy taste and it wasn't even that spicy might I add. The bowl of salad - the strawberry, poppy seed was very taste with all fresh vegetables and fruit....very crunchy! The salad dressing was a hint and wasn't overwhelming!
The strawberry with ginseng smoothie was low salt so you don't get that sugar high yet it was still smooth and very cold! Very tasty. The meal comes with a complimentary cookie and despite not liking the one I was already given - chocolate chip, I was given one that I preferred - oatmeal raisin that was free!
Will most definitely be returning to try many of their other items on the menu and to also try their to-go service!
