I was walking in Old Town, waiting for my hair appointment later in the afternoon. I was looking for the Mandala Tea Room but found the Picnic Company first. There were about 10 police motorcycles out front and I figured they knew what was up food wise in the area.
I felt rushed from the second I walked in the door. The employees looked like they were in a hurry and I felt pressured to order fast. I quickly glanced at the menu, not wanting to get a sandwich, I decided on the Sedona Salad for $6.50.
The salad was slapped down on the pick-up counter, and when I got up there, it was the most unappealing, thrown together mess I've ever seen at any establishment that calls itself a restaurant. First, it was extremely small. Second, the spinach, feta, nuts, and red onions were all just thrown on there as though it went through some fast food assembly line.The vinaigrette tasted bottled. I could have made a more presentable salad that tasted better with produce from Fry's, that cost me less than a dollar.
Who knows how their sandwiches are. I'm sure they're decent considering all the cops in there. I won't be back to find out.
I was so hungry after eating this sorry excuse for a salad, I walked over to the Mandala Tea Room and ate another meal. ugh.
