    Yummy!!
    Lynette H.

    Traveling and wanted to try something sit down and quick. This for the bill. Plus the cost was good. I ordered the Korean BBQ Pork. I was pleasantly surprised and would order it again. My husband had the Spicy Thai Chicken and rice. He liked his meal as well. We left with happy bellies full of healthy food. Forgot to add that it had a cool vibe and seemed to be real actively new and clean. Definitely recommend.

    Found this place while looking for a healthy lunch on our way from Indy to Chicago. After reading the previous reviews we were skeptical, but we'd had CoreLife on our list to try for awhile, so we gave it a try. The service was top notch. We had lots of questions about the menu and each of the 3 staff members we encountered were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. The restaurant was neat and clean, and the food was delicious. We will definitely be back!

    Chicken Chipotle Broth- super flavorful and comforting. Spicy, but in a good way. Love it!

    The Greek taco was sooo good and I will totally get it again. Perfect fix for that Greek flavor. I am a big fan of the Chipotle Chicken Broth. It's rich, flavorful, a little spicy and hits the spot when you want something light or have a cold. The food and drinks here are always good, fresh, and offer nutritional meals that will satisfy. I can't wait to go back!

    Make your own bowl - noodles were not good

    Was so excited to try this place but was kind of bummed. First, cold noodles were hard and chewy - maybe they were supposed to be (super) al dente but basically my kids wouldn't eat them. Also they were out of tzatziki for the Greek quinoa bowl which was told to me after it had been made - really a deal killer and also the reason I ordered this bowl. Finally, food is so salty I can still taste it several hours later :(

    I always enjoy coming to corelife for a healthier take on a fast-ish meal. They have plenty of options for entrees with meats and a large variety of fresh veggies. It is an assembly line format where you walk in and order your ingredients as they slide your bowl down the counter. I always get the korean bbq pork and it is always very tasty. The portions are good and prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get. They also have a few flavored lemonades and I strongly suggest at least tasting the beet lemonade. I strongly dislike beets but somehow the lemonade blends very well with it and it just works. It does get somewhat busy during the lunch hours and I have had to wait 15-25 minutes before so keep that in mind.

    Does THIS look like a taco to you?

    I will start this review with the fact that my wife and I LOVE the original menu items here such as the bowls - they ROCK! Tonight we decided to try the tacos as we LOVE tacos and eat them at home in various forms of plant-based proteins likely 4-5 times/week and we do them very well. These Pita-bread things are NOT tacos and a shouldn't be on the menu as such to mess with folks who love tacos and want them. After my wife saw mine being made she almost asked them to stop and/or ordered something else but she chose to take one for the team... Soggy pita-bread in a bowl-shape doesn't make a taco... We had buyers remorse And searched a real taco place on our drive home. An hour+ later and I feel like I ate a pile of pita The contents were OK, yet the pita ruined these taco-imposters. We will go back and will NOT have these taco posers again.

    Food was good, this was my first time in. I was going to order a curry soup that I saw on the online menu but they did not have it on the menu when I went in. The customer service was a bit lacking, I could have used a little guidance but the employee barely spoke to me Update: Second time in, food was delish! Super long line that moved slow but I was patient

    I'm a huge fan of the CoreLife chain. Every time I go, anywhere I go, it's always good. I'm a fan of their tuna poke grain bowl. I always double the protein and add tofu and I'm full for hours. The ingredients are fresh and it's made to order, and always customizable. Service here was great too!

    Who knew there are decent salad places here! There is a sizable selection of salads and bowls that can all be customized to fit your taste all at a reasonable price. We love that there's a lot of seating indoors and outdoors, and the dining area feels clean. Taste can vary from order to order depending on your server and can be heavy on the sauces or make you wonder if they forgot to add sauces. Just let them know beforehand and it can be adjusted to your liking! There's definitely some healthy choices here for the health-conscious folk.

    My coworkers and I enjoy coming here often for lunch. Expect a lunch rush and ordering or building your options takes time. There is plenty of staff but not all dedicated to fulfilling bowls. The food is super fresh with abundant choices. I truly enjoy coming here and having a huge selection of veggies broths light carbs meats etc. even the juice selection is awesome and unique! The space is generous like the food servings! I come back here at least once a week every week. The only glitch is toppings that are free in the store are considered paid options when ordering online. Therefore we choose to go there instead of ordering online.

    1.2 ounces. I thought a serving is considered 2-2.5 oz

    Wish I could eat here everyday. The food is excellent and healthy. The only bad thing is the hours need to be extended past 8pm.

    Pricey for little food. Ordered a large salad and had less than 2 oz of chicken. Menu was confusing. Cava is far superior for similar food.

    Probably the best ambience at West Lafayette. The restaurant is well decorated and well organized,…read morefeels like high end. The servers are basically Purdue students and they were very professional, prompt and welcoming. Definitely some place where you should come with out of town/state date to impress them. All their offerings are 3 course meals. A salad or soup, an entree and a dessert. I tried their salad, Atlantic cod fish with some veggies and fresh fruit as the salad. I verified from the server that they don't use alcohol to cook. They had some interesting desserts, but did not try from concern of non-halal ingredients. Their food taste was overall good but the portions are not enough. I was hungry even after lunch.

    Nice sit down full service restaurant on Purdue's campus which is run by Hospitality students. I…read morehad s nice experience here with the restaurant. It was nice to sit down to a hot, well made full service meal on a campus full of student food choices. I had the Italian special, which was their daily special today. The pasta was well cooked, slightly on the bland side but once I salted it m, it was great. There were a lot of pieces of shrimp and plenty of fresh spinach in the bowl. The serving was a good size and also came with two mini cannoli. The cannoli was the highlight of the meal. Delicious cream, not too sweet loaded with chocolate chips and the perfect size. Service was also good, it's nice to be waited on instead of doing a cafeteria style meal. I'd recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a "better" meal at Purdue.
