My fave sandwich, salad bowl, and yogurt bowl. They got great coffee and cookies also. I love how fresh all the ingredients is. My daughter who dislike vegetables would eat all her veggies. We always stop by here whenever we go to Kearny Mesa.

Got the farmers wrap - chicken, bacon, green peppers, spicy farmers dressing - it was excellent. I’ve been looking for a lunch spot that’s relatively quick with good vegetable options (harder to find than it should be). Well, this is it - definitely added to my weekly rotation.

I really enjoy the food and the smiles with service. I will say I like the original set up of one person handling your order from beginning to the end. The new set up changes hands per station seems to take longer. I wish the this place stayed open later til like 7p or 8p. And look forward to other franchises opening up soon around San Diego and North county. The food is healthy and awesome! Great idea.

A medium-sized cafe serving salads, sandwiches, paninis, smoothies and more with high quality ingredients. Prices are decent and the staff is nice. I've been here probably 20 times over the past 2 years and never had a negative experience. Food is always fresh and very tasty. Great lunch spot. Parking can sometimes be a challenge but usually isn't terrible. Definitely recommend stopping in!

A Subway like experience serving healthy fare including salads, grain bowls and flatbreads. Good spot for a quick healthy meal.

Quick lunch spot that delivers on health and taste. Menu selection is pretty robust, all with a healthy spin. Only complaint is that while the food is consistent, the expediency of the order line is a little slower than it could be. In all, a better solution than other nearby offerings.
