    TL;DR: No fuss healthy clean eats - get the bone broth! Got the Korean BBQ Pork bowl a few times in a week - filling but not too much and packs a lot of flavor. Could do with a little more kick but overall delicious. Get the bone broth. It's warming and rounds out the meal perfectly Cheers, CoreLife Eatery!

    Food is always so delicious here! On top of that, the team is always so friendly and fast. Best place for a salad here on the northside! Wish they had more locations

    I just love going here for their tacos and the bowl. If you are looking to eat healthy I say go try CoreLife Eatery out. You will not be disappointed. The food is great and the prices are very reasonable, especially for you to be able to eat healthy. The inside is very clean. Customer service is very great and they explain things really well and will answer any questions you may have.

    Chicken Fajita Taco
    Imani W.

    I've ordered takeout twice and both times the chicken fajita tacos were very warm and delicious! I do wish that they came with some sort of taco sauce to give it that extra kick! I added my own instead. Overall though super good and tasty! I've also gotten their tomato soup! Fulfilling and flavorful! Preferred over Panera Bread's tomato soup! Looking forward to trying others items on their menu!

    Great restaurant for those focused on healthy eating and appreciating blue zone cuisine. Their menu has many predefined wraps and bowls but you can also build your own custom bowl which is what I did. The price for a large bowl was $11-12 which isn't bad. All the ingredients tasted fresh and well done, and it took less than a 5 mins for my order to be ready. After trying sweetgreen and BIBIBOP I would put this restaurant above those in terms of quality. Hope they open more locations around Indy soon!

    I discovered core life back in college in West Lafayette before sweetgreen (also not comparable but similar concept) came to Indiana & I have been a fan ever since! The location off 82nd is always clean and the staff is friendly/patient. I always say I'm going to try something different but the tuna poke bowl and the sriracha ginger salad have me in a chokehold. You can add 1 ingredient to your bowl/plate for free and you can sub rice for greens if you want! Whenever I'm feeling under the weather I like to grab their chipotle chicken bone broth and sip away my sickness. Yum, now I'm craving corelife!

    Amazing food! If you are looking for an away from home healthier food choices...that actually tastes yummy...then, head to CoreLife! Not only is the good tasty, but the interior and the service matches. When you walk in the place, there are a lot of warm and comforting colors that greet you. The pictures and the menu are clean just like how you feel when you are eating the food that you ordered. Earlier I touched upon the food being yummy...well, it is and my go to is the pick 2 ... a regular sized bowl of the bbq chicken...comes with all the goodies...told rice, chicken, corn, cheese, jicama and bbq sauce...topped with crunchy tortilla strips...oh so good! For my second item I always choose the gluten free Mac ...now, I am not a out of the house Mac n cheese person..usually underwhelmed when I get it out...but, here it tastes just like my MIL's baked Mac n cheese...except with gluten free noodles...how fantastic is that? Not sure how to answer that question...well then go check it out for yourself!

    This is the first time I've eaten at this restaurant. Very clean inside, great customer service by the door, repaired our food. She was helpful with her suggestions. We built on bowls, I chose steak, salad, rice, beets, cucumbers, egg, Pickled onions and Greek yogurt with sriracha dressing. It was phenomenal. My only complaint is that I would've loved a bit more steak. She measures it, so I would guess it's about 4 ounces- other than that I have zero complaints and would gladly return for more!

    I have nothing but good things to say about core life eatery! It is always so good and so fresh. Their aesthetic is so vibrant when you walk into the restaurant. It almost is like a chipotle style way to order. Therefore you can kind of scope out what you want. I got a bowl filled with quinoa, arugula, spicy broccoli, siracha sprouts, chicken, corn, and much more. Their jalapeño lime dressing is too die for. Perfect amount of spice and lime flavor. I also also get the chicken bone broth to sip on and it's perfection. It's a must when you're feeling under the weather or just want to warm up! I've also gotten the buffalo chicken tacos and OH MY WORD, insane! I don't have a picture because i literally inhaled it in two seconds. They put it on a pita taco and it has changed my life forever. Dramatic, i know. Overall, you can definitely find something for everyone here, kids included. Healthy yet so delicious!

I ordered the Caesar salad and the sesame chicken lettuce wraps then finished with an affogato. The salad was delicious although quite large. I really loved the chicken lettuce wraps cooked in such a delicious sauce. SO good. The affogatto was a disappointment though as there was waaay too much ice cream and it was served without a spoon. Weird. The espresso was very good as was the ice cream, just work on proportions, please. Absolutely wonderful wait staff. One other complaint, the tables on the patio are bolted to the floor so our entire group couldn't sit together.

For what it costs, it felt grossly overpriced and did not justify the hype. The bigger issue was the service. We waited about 10 minutes before a server came to the table, and then waited at least another 30 minutes for the food. I know the timing because we sat down right as the World Cup match started, and the food did not arrive until around the 35-minute mark. I understand restaurants get busy, but the combination of slow service, long wait times, and overpriced food made this a very disappointing visit. For the price point, I expected much better.

That was enough for us to give it a try and we're glad we did. The restaurant itself is clean, bright, and welcoming. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a smile, which immediately makes you feel comfortable. As soon as we sat down, a bottle of chilled water was brought to the table, a small but thoughtful touch that we appreciated. Service was very efficient. Our order was taken quickly, and the food came out at lightning speed. The waffle was light and fluffy, the fruit cup was fresh and naturally sweet, and the spinach omelet was absolutely delicious. One of the standout items was the homemade blueberry jam, it was truly out of this world and paired perfectly with the meal. Another feature we liked was the unlimited coffee bar. For $5 you can enjoy three different coffee flavors and even take a cup to go, which is a great deal for coffee lovers. We also learned that many of their pastries and treats are made fresh every morning, which explains the quality. Parking is easy with plenty of free spaces available, making the visit even more convenient. After finishing our meal, we learned that the business was sold about two years ago and is no longer family owned. Even so, the food quality, friendly staff, and great service made for a very enjoyable breakfast experience. If you're looking for a fresh, satisfying breakfast in a welcoming setting, Café Patachou is definitely worth a visit.

I love a solo date to Patachou but I let my Dad tag along this time for a daddy/daughter breakfast date. It was his first time & he loved it! I really need to explore the menu more but I always land on The Omelette You Can't Refuse & I'm never skipping on the cinnamon toast, ever! Everything is always so fresh because they source locally. Their mimosas are made with their house made Prosecco & as a self-proclaimed sommelier it's some of the best in the game. If you don't believe me, check it out for yourself haha. Laurie was our server this time & she was a delight. She was so bubbly, I saw her interacting with the small children & other tables, you can tell she loves where she works & I loved that.

I did see they allow you to make reservations on Open Table, so I booked it for a weekday to try it out. It wasn't nearly as busy as the parking lot looked, there was plenty of seating. It was a nice day so they had the windows open and they also had someone playing live music so it was a tad loud but, not overly loud where you can't hear your conversation. The menu is not your typical menu, it's very crafty if that's a word. The service was very good, and she explained the menu well and we took her up on her recommendations. Turkey pastrami which I had never had before. It tastes really fresh and felt healthy. The salad comes in a little small bowl but full of goodness. It's a really nice place for a girls night out, or a family dinner. Wouldn't consider it a good place for date night as it is pretty loud.

I…read morestopped in for breakfast after a morning event and really enjoyed the eclectic environment. The menu is solid, with good variety. I ordered the A La Crossing Benedict, side of gravy, lefse, side Norwegian potato cake, and peach ginger hot tea. I was thrilled to find the hot tea was loose leaf in a pot brought to the table. It's a lovely touch. The Benedict had perfectly crispy bacon and so much asparagus. The egg yolks were perfectly runny and the hollandaise had great flavor. I picked the house salad with champagne vinaigrette for the side and enjoyed that as well. I tried the gravy on some of the sourdough bread and it had a great flavor. The biscuits and gravy will probably be something I order next time because it was so good. When I read they season their sausage in-house I knew I had to try it even though I wanted the Benedict. The Norwegian Potato Cake was a delight! I love every take on a potato pancake or latke and this one had great flavor. The Lefse was a perfect treat to end- I had the traditional with just butter, sugar, and cinnamon. (I had leftovers of this and ate it at home with extra butter and a little syrup also.)

The price was more expensive than I anticipated but not crazy. Ruth's is a little of a distance for me which is how I base my final rating.
