Quiche was loaded with salt, unedible. Panini bread is hard and tasteless. Overpriced for mediocre food.

Family stopped in for lunch today on our way through Grand Junction. Was happy to see they had gluten free options as some of the former reviews stated. Even happier that the GF options were actually really good. Had the GF club panini. Whatever bread they are using is delicious. Small Cobb salad was also really good and fairly big serving. I could not finish it. We also had the soba noodle soup which we liked a lot. Restaurant is clean and casual. Service was very friendly. We will definitely visit again when our travels take us that direc read more

Super fresh salads, tasty paninis, and water mixed with cinnamon, apple slices, and basil. Great food, great service!

I got their trail mix salad I think it was and they forgot to put dates on it. Banana bread was dry. Didn't get a drink because everything was too expensive. They do have water right there tho. read more

I needed food for a business meeting fairly last minute because I changed my mind and wanted local healthy instead of what I had planned on. I called about 2 hours before the meeting and asked if they could help me out. The manager got on the phone and explained what they had. I love how the menu varies by season and local availability! There were 15 people I needed food for, and was a little worried that it wouldn't be enough when he told me how much each platter would serve. I ordered blueberry crumble bars and a hummus plate and was not dissapointed. There were enough veggies and hummus to feed an army, and it was this amazing, flavorful, sweet & tangy red colored hummus. Probably beets, but I hate beets and this was tasty so who knows. The carrots were the tiny baby carrots, which was great for me since we would typically have to stop the meeting to wait for anyone to loudly masticate the bigger "baby" carrots. Even the celery was cut down to manageable sizes. The blueberry crumble bars, there were enough to feed 25-30 people on the plate (cut into squares) and they were so much better than church potluck versions I've had in the past. The manager said they usually need 24 hours to whip something up, but were happy to do what they could. They said it would be ready in an hour, and it was. They rang me up over the phone, no need to wait in line! The helpful waiter carried everything to my car with a bounce in his step and placed it carefully so it wouldn't spill. The food was a hit, everyone was grateful it wasn't pizza, and there are still plenty of leftovers. read more

I suggest café sole for anyone who enjoys food! Their chick peas and peanut butter & banana sandwiches are to die for.

always our go to place when visiting Grand Junction. today, had truly outstanding breakfast burrito and latte. thanks for the consistent outstanding job. read more

If you're looking for a really good environment with amazing food, Cafe Sol is the place. My personal favorite is the chicken avocado. It has chicken, bacon, and guacamole. It's simple but perfect! read more

Cafe Sol is a cute cafe in downtown Grand Junction with fresh and creative salads and sandwiches. They had pallets of fresh vegetables by the counter and hallway, and the tomatoes tasted just a juicy as they looked. My caprese salad was more tasty and interesting than many other versions - with a walnut pesto vinaigrette and atop fresh greens - and the guacamole panini hit the spot. The flavored waters were a nice touch, too. Highly recommended if you're looking for something fresh and a little different for lunch. read more

My husband and I love Cafe Sol! We live in Glenwood Springs, and any time we have a need to go to Grand Junction, we try to time it so we can go to Cafe Sol for lunch. We are both vegetarian and appreciate their wide variety in tasty vegetarian fare and their use of seasonal, local produce. We recently got married at Crack in the Wall Gallery in Silt, and used Cafe Sol as our caterers. They were awesome!! Nick was easy to communicate with and we coordinated everything via email. He and Autumn and Joy made a great team, and we were so pleased with the quality and variety of the food. We explored various themes with Nick, and landed on a Greek themed buffet. Our guests were well-fed, and we have received so many compliments on how yummy it all was. Nick is a talented chef and he has a talented team working with him. They are in their element! We highly recommend Cafe Sol for your next catered event and if you are looking for a place to go in Grand Junction for breakfast or lunch. Enjoy!! read more

Hip, trendy, healthy. I keep going back as the menu evolves around whats available fresh. Sandwiches are amazing, every one has that one special sauce or condiment that ties the whole thing together. Sides and salads are equally amazing. The beet salad is fantastic. I have yet to try the soup... this fall for sure! Cool, soft cloth napkins. Love the complimentary flavored waters, decent but small beer and wine selection. read more

The food is great, although it is a little pricey. However, it is very fresh, quality, healthy food. The salads are unique and absolutely delicious and the atmosphere in the restaurant is a very hipster-y, crunchy vibe which if that is your thing, this is a great place to go. Even if it isn't your thing, I would recommend trying at least once because of how good the food is. It is not particularly quick, though, because they are making the food fresh so if you're looking for a quick bite I would not go here. read more

In this great country the usa 80% of all food has GMO. maybe youve heard of monsantos and round up. well take a break this gem is organic and made with love and respect the soup is the best in the whole state of colo. you can go to fast food and eat poison or try a place that will make you feel good. no greasy donuts here. read more

I'll start off by saying the food is good. We have visited several times now for the food, but we won't go back. If you are living on a budget, this restaurant is not for you. Not only is the price of food high, but they ask for a tip at the counter before experiencing the service. After you have paid your hefty price at the counter, you can then serve yourself a glass of water and take your drinks and number to your table, if you can find one. It's not that the place is packed necessarily, but there is no obviously designated table busser, and the tables are often covered in leftovers for up to half an hour before it gets cleared. The only service you will get from an employee is when they bring the food to your table. And busy or not, that food often takes over half an hour to arrive, so don't plan to eat here on a lunch break. So while the portions are large, and they clearly put effort into their food, the combination of the price, wait time, and service isn't worth it. read more

I checked this place out for dinner the other night. I was pleasantly surprised. The ingredients seemed very fresh, and the salads were huge. I got a Panini with Portobello mushroom among other things and and a salad combo. I am not a vegetarian, but it was great to have a delicious vegetarian meal. read more

YUMMY! The fresh quality of the food and the variety makes this a favorite lunch spot. Never had a bad meal and one of the few places I try something new each time with out feeling I am taking a chance. Thanks! read more

Yummy! Fresh real food. Sandwiches are delicious served panini style. Salads come in a small or large, small was enough food for me. Great food presentation. This is our new lunch stop. read more

This is an awesome little gem right here! We were in GJ visiting some family and stopped in here for lunch. We came right before the lunch rush, thankfully because it started to get a little crazy in there! They have a nice variety to their menu with lots of unique choices. I had 1/2 turkey panini and 1/2 of the wild west salad. My husband had the Reuben panini with broccoli slaw on the side. If you're wanting a giant salad, this is the place to go! My salad order was a half and it was still huge. I loved the panini and the wild west salad, so much flavor to both and everything was super fresh. My husband wasn't in love with the Reuben, and it was definitely missing something in the flavor. The broccoli slaw was really good though! They also have food options that are already packaged to-go for you so you can just stop in and pick something up if you don't have time to wait for it. And they also sell local goods on a little shelf by where you order which I thought was awesome. Local supporting local! If you're in Grand Junction, definitely stop in! read more

Amazing menus (breakfast & lunch) -- healthy, healthy, healthy very good food. The sides are innovative and prepared wonderfully. Covers all the bases from vegan (my son) to "regular" (me). And the help for ordering is excellent -- very helpful and patient with changes in ordering. We go back over and over again. read more

If you charge nine dollars for a salad it should be a good salad. The beet salad I had was not. The prosciutto had a foul taste. The dressing was very acidic and did not complement the greens. I would not go back. read more

The food is super yummy and fresh. The restaurant is is decorated cute and has a nice ambiance! it is so nice that Grand Junction has some good, fresh food places to eat. My mom and I had salad and soup. The seasoned walnuts in my salad were awesome. The Mexican Squash Soup was yummy. I'm so glad I had the chance to eat there. read more

Finally a great salad place in Grand Junction. Food is good, fresh and fast. I have eaten in and taken out and had delivery. Great selection of creative salads and sandwiches loaded with vegetables of all kinds. Grilled or not, both are great. I think the portions for take out are small for the price you pay, but seems like you get more when dining in? I can eat big salads so maybe it is just me, but I would like more greens please :) read more

We ate at Cafe Sol after visiting Colorado National Monument. Very cute rustic decor, good paninis, fresh ingredients.

Really great lunch spot. Unique, local, fresh and friendly. Portions are generous, food is delicious. Lots of local ingredients. Love it

Wide selection of great salads! This place is fun plus has great salads. What more do you need?

Creative recipes are used to serve up some very tasty soups and sandwiches. The service was good the first three times I ate there, but they lost my order the last time I was there so I haven't returned. I'm giving them four stars for the food and not deducting for what I hope was a rare service failure. read more

I really enjoy the fresh salads and they are HUGE too. Always plenty to take home for dinner. It's nice to have the patio option too when the weather isn't too hot or cold. I highly recommend this quaint little spot! read more

I just love this place. . . the salads and paninis are very good but the soups are five star: homemade, varied and really fresh. Super customer service as well: I mentioned my fish chowder was low on fish and they refunded my money. As we were getting ready to leave, the owner/chef approached our table, apologized and gave us a container of the soup he was working on for the next day. It was delicious. This is a wonderful restaurant and for Grand Junction it's a miracle. read more

Yummy! Had a sandwich here and it was fantastic- I highly recommend the slaw as a side. A great little place for lunch!

Best forest made organic food in junction. Love every soup and salad on the menu. Worth the price!

Delicious, clean, healthy food. Lots of gluten free and dairy free options available. This is my go-to place for a healthy delicious meal.

Brought family from out of town in for lunch. Super delicious! The food is farm fresh. They always have wonderful favors paired together in their salads and the soups are wonderful. I also love the flavored waters. Great customer service. I have food allergies and they are always flexible and answer questions about the ingredients. My family commented about how great everything tastes. Definitely recommend. read more

The food here is good and fresh! My husband and I got sandwiches and they were both delish but a little plain for my taste. This place is different from most others here in Junction, which isn't a bad thing, but the organic vegan/vegetarian type experience isn't what I tend to go for. I definitely recommend this place I just wish I would've known it isn't really what we like. The place is really cute and I liked the fresh flavored waters and décor, but like another review said, come when your not in a hurry since it takes a little while. I liked it overall though! Something that would be found on the front range. read more

Excellent! Fresh, delicious, creative, cool atmosphere. You can even get a beer or glass of wine. The small salad is BIG & filling. They play around with different infusions for their water too. We, by chance, ended up meeting the local farmer who supplies all their greens (Field to Fork) and they raved about Cafe Sol as a business partner. This same farm supplies to many local GJ area restaurants, but while many of them claim to use local produce they only actually purchase a very small amount and mix it in with cheaper stuff. However, the farmers said Cafe Sol (as well as Bin 707 & Il Bistro Italiano) truly do use local produce. I love supporting a business that is not only high quality, but is great for the surrounding community as well! Eat here now; you won't regret it! read more

Best quick food in the city, hand down. If you love a turkey sandwich........... You get one from Cafe Fn... Sol!
