| - My company has a booth at the convention center this week and I was put in charge of food for our staff. We've had the typical Chipotle, Panera, Halal Guys, etc. so I wanted to change it up. I turned to trusty Yelp and found Karved, which is close by, does takeout, AND has 5 star reviews!
Karved actually opens at 11am, but I called at 10:52am and they immediately answered my call. I placed a large group order and they had everything ready to go in less than an hour. The food was still warm when we got back to the convention center.
The service here is really great. They got all of our orders right and everyone had utensils. They also threw in some extra sauces for us to try. Because I had a large group order, the guy also helped me carry it out to my car! So nice of them.
The only con is that because they use eco friendly takeout boxes, the boxes get kind of mushy. They actually get bonus points from me for using an eco friendly takeout option, but if you need your box to last through a long day, I suggest asking for an extra box and layering it.
Most people got the tri-tip platter and some got the salad. Everyone in my group really enjoyed their food. I got the porchetta platter and it was SO GOOD. I added the garlic sauce to it and it was on point. My coworker tried mine and actually said he wish he ordered mine instead. The porchetta also has the most perfectly crispy pieces of pork skin too. The servings of food are huge and will probably take me at least two meals to finish.
Oh, I also saw on the board that they had frozen Greek yogurt with baklava. Amazing. I wish I wasn't doing take out because I DEFINITELY would've gotten this. It's what my dreams are made of.
Whether you need something easy and fast or you want to have a sit down meal, I'd recommend Karved for both!
