| - Well, I REALLY wanted to love this place. The website was neat and informative, and the store itself is amazing.
When you walk in, you can smell the fresh vegetables. Clean as a whistle, and the glass-doored fridges were bursting with colorful veg. The space has enormous ceiling and is decorated as you would think a trendy vegetarian place should be.
The worker was very friendly and laid back (again, think hippie-chic), and was amazingly helpful. I ordered the 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Chicken, and they were quickly receptive to the request for a substitution.
The salad was made in a giant bowl right in front of you, and I was amazed at the amount each of fixings added. I asked for heavy dressing, the tomato-dijon jalapeno, and went back to work, excited for my feast. What a let-down. The flavors just weren't there. The dressing seemed to have spice, but not a "kick," and almost no flavor whatsoever. I tried adding salt and pepper (more than once), but with no luck.
I understand that it is supposed to be a health-food place, and I will try it again with a stronger dressing or added cheese, but this place just didn't "do it" for me.
