| - I've been coming to this location [there's another one in Oldtown] for a few times now. My experience has been vastly different but satisfactory every single time.
I have been served by David or Drew everytime. They are both fantastic!
I was in for a weekday lunch and had the Turkey and Avocado wrap. The peppercinis blended with the lightly seasoned turkey made for a full filling lunch. To top it all off, the sweet potato chips were on point! I still can't figure out if they're baked or fried, because they weren't greasy at all but they weren't burned at all either.
The next time I went after the lunch rush and wanted the wrap again but decided to try the Butternut Squash and Corn Enchiladas since they were so beautifully described by Drew. Best. Decision. EVER. The only bad thing with them is that it was only 2. Please mister, can I have some more?
The most recent time, I had a date on a Friday night. The patio is nicely set up and we even had live music. To think of it, the set up inside of the restaurant is just terrible. Was this even built as a restaurant? Some of the tables outside are also crowded, but not as much. I gladly take my chances of getting a crappy table any day in exchange for the food served at the Herb Box. I don't usually take dates out on new places but I wanted to see the HB at night. Best. Decision. Ever. Also.
Once again, I thought I had tried the best thing on the menu until David, our server, made some suggestions upon hearing it was my girl-friend's first time there. I was a little skeptical about the ribs, but I ordered them anyways with David's recommendation. For the lady, she had the Serrano Shrimp Salad. While we waited for the food, we had a bowl of chicken chili and the korean cauliflower. The spicyness due to spices in the chicken were excellent and the korean cauliflower was unique and delightful; who knew you could do that to cauliflower? The bed of white quinoa leveled the spiciness and made it my favorite appetizer.
We could have not gotten better entrees. Every other review on here speaking about the Thai Baby Back Ribs do no justice to how they truly are: A MA ZING. And the Shrimp Salad did not fall behind either, the serrano glaze went great with the shrimp and lemony arugula.
Our meal ended and we were stuffed. David offered some dessert menus and we looked at it 'for fun' or so we thought.. we ordered the Crack Pie and boy is that addicting!
On our way out, we checked out the pastry case inside that David had mentioned. After hearing him describe some of the items we just had to take a few to go! They're gluten free options are unbelievable. I tried a GF brownie and it has been the best brownie I've ever had. The Red Velevet cupcake is great as well, can't go wrong with red velvet!
Overall, the restaurant could definitely use some remodeling but it's worth it for the food.
I love this place and will definitely be back!
