Went to lunch with my dad at the Herb Box today. It was a cool day, and quite breezy, but they had the huge windows over the bar open so it was freezing inside. We decided to sit outside hoping that the sun would warm us up a little. The hostess took us outside and said that she was going to sit us at one of the bar top tables on the edge of the patio, but the previous customers had not left yet, so would we mind sitting at a table right next to a large noisy party until they other customers left. We said fine. A couple minutes later she said it would be just another minute or two. The other customers left and someone cleaned off the table. We got up and walked over to the table and another employee told us it was reserved for another party. I told her what the hostess had told us and she reluctantly let us have the table.
I ordered the Market Sunflower Salad. Wow, was it disappointing. Mostly lettuce with a small amount of chicken. There were VERY FEW dried berries (could not tell what kind they were) and a couple of sunflower seeds. You could barely see the cheese, and I think I tasted two bites of bacon. For $15, this was very expensive lettuce. Not much taste at all. My dad ordered a sandwich which came with the house sweet potato chips. The chips were soggy and chewy. Pretty disgusting. We pointed out the condition of the chips to the waitress and she was very apologetic and offered us a fresh bag to take home, but by that time we were pretty much done with this restaurant. For an over $30 lunch it left much to be desired.
Herb Box used to be good, but the last couple of times we have come, it has been awful. We won't be back.
