I missed out on the Yelp Elite Event, since I'm not in Murfreesboro very often, but one night I was actually in the area, so I stopped in for dinner to go. After going back and forth between several different options in my head, I ended up choosing the Spicy Chicken Ancient Grains bowl. I swapped out the beets for tomatoes, and it seems like any and all substitutions are welcomed. Based on the name, I was expecting the bowl to have more grains with the kale, veggies and proteins on top, but it was actually a kale salad with a little bit of quinoa mixed in. I had to ask the guy tossing my bowl if my order was right, and he assured me it was. No big deal - I probably needed to eat more greens anyway. I chose the miso ginger dressing, and the bowl was tossed right in front of me before being put in the bowl. The menu suggests a dressing, but you can choose any dressing you want. Once I got home I was very delighted by my kale salad! Usually I'm not a huge fan of kale salad because I think it can be tough and chewy. But they chop up the kale small enough, and I think tossing in the bowl helps soften the leaves a bit too. The dressing had a nice zing from the ginger but was still very flavorful, and I loved the extra kick from the spicy chicken. I also ordered a honey ginger lemonade and thoroughly enjoyed that too. The drink was definitely more on the tart side, so if you like sweet lemonade I would skip it. I didn't see it on the menu board in the store, but online says you can build your own bowl. Next time I go back, I want to try to do that instead. It was pretty busy the last time I went, and I didn't want to overwhelm myself with choices during my first visit. Definitely a lot of healthy options that won't leave you feeling guilty! read more

I want to like this place but each time I visit I leave feeling profoundly unfulfilled and disappointed. It's not that the food is bad because it's not, the issue I have is that it is not for me what I would consider good. Heathy? Yes! but tasty? No read more

The food here is excellent quality, and the location is clean. Unfortunately for me, it just plain wasn't to my taste. Make sure you check out the menu before going. The average American palette isn't accustomed to this style of food, so it's a good idea to have some idea of what you'd like to try before arriving. read more

There's a real modern touch to this place. You walk up to the counter and there's countless yummy foods you can see! They look super fresh, almost like a painting. The staff is super nice and ask you several questions to make sure you get your food how you want it. You can buy a bottled drink but there's a ton of "fountain" drinks to choose from. Beet lemonade = the bomb!! Food is definitely fresh! It's tastes sooo good and sooo soo natural! A little pricey I guess for a salad and a drink but I'd love to come here ... a lot. It's a good place grab lunch with a friend or two. read more

Fresh food. Choose your own toppings. Fresh juice. What more could you possibly ask for!? I was here for Yelp night. It was so amazing that I went back for seconds. Beet lemonade is SOOOOO good. read more

I had the spicy chicken and purple rice bowl. OMG it was filling and delicious. The staff was knowledgeable and courteous and worked well together and the prices were reasonable. I would definitely recommend and will return to try more of their multiple dishes. I especially like the honey ginger lemonade. read more

I personally didn't really like this meal. It took me almost an hour to get my food and while they where making it nobody was wearing hairnets and one person was eating while cooking the food.It is over priced very highly.The serves were very nice though read more

This used to be one of my favorite spots until I was served old corn that was hard as a rock. Asked if I could get a new bowl and was only offered 50% off a new bowl even though I was given old food. I won't be going back. read more

This was previously one of my favorite spots. Unfortunately, they are not enforcing the mask mandate. As you can see from the photo, two employees and two customers were not wearing masks. I will not be back. read more

I have literally eaten here 6 times this week, I'm obsessed. I haven't gotten a bad meal even once and i've tried wildly different dishes every time. the Juice Bar is delicious and you can combine them to create whatever sort you like. The staff is patient and understanding and always has a lot of fun with me. I HIGHLY reccommend trying it at least. read more

There it is, the rarest of five stars. This casual dine and dash establishment is at the very top of the list. Although experiencing the curve of 'newness,' the staff is excellent and the food is simply amazing. I had the opportunity to meet with the owner, and we discussed the philosophy behind and execution of their menu. Simply put, it is all fresh, whole, and perfectly composed. Yea, you can 'freestyle' your bowl as you go, but the menu selections are well crafted and surprisingly complex. Do your body and tastebuds a favor and check this place out ASAP! read more

I love it!! All the dressings are made in house and the ingredients are beneficial to our health! If you are craving different and want to complement your body's needs then this is the place to go! read more

Tried Corelife Eatery for lunch to go and it was very good. I got the Spicy Thai Chicken and Noodle bowl, the small size. It was very filling and not super spicy. I also got the honey and turmeric lemonade which was different. I spent more than I anticipated but for the quality of ingredients and having it for 2 meals because it was so filling it did not bother me. The employees are also very nice and will answer all your questions/concerns regarding ingredients/spice levels while also making suggestions to cater the menu item to your liking. read more

The meat wasn't as fresh as I think it should've been, granted we did have an early dinner so it isn't very busy at those times. It was a bit on the expensive side, but I guess healthy/salad stuff is... read more

My family regularly stops in Murfreesboro on road trips, so believe you me, I was stoked with I learned CoreLife Eatery was just off I-24. My young kids aren't quite up for this culinary adventure, but knowing we were in for a few days of stick-to-your-ribs food, I talked my husband into letting me pick it up to go (what's one more stop?!). Oh how I love the spicy chicken and grain bowl- extra broccoli and sriracha, no beets. It's the stuff dreams are made of. I knocked off a star because neither staff member assembling my bowl knew quite what regularly goes on it, making me worried I'd get something outside my norm (not good for a road trip to go order). Luckily, it was as spectacular as usual. The staff member working the cash register was very knowledgeable and friendly. I'll be back next time we pass through Murfreesboro... this time with the app properly downloaded on my phone. read more

For fellow gluten free followers, this is a great place! Everything on the menu was gluten free and had plenty of options for meat eaters and vegans alike, which I love since I am vegan and my fiance is not. I had the spicy ginger tofu bowl and my fiance had the pick your own options with the steak, broccolini and mashed potatoes. Everything was very clean and healthy, which I really appreciated! Their drinks were also very natural and delicious. I was impressed with the wide array of food and how fresh everything looked. The only issues I had were the servers didn't seem to know which soups were vegan or not. Also, the meat was a little more rare than we would have liked. Overall, I would thoroughly recommend them and I look forward to returning another day to try some other options. read more

Everything is fresh and healthy! Love going here because of all the interesting choices and combinations with fresh and clean food. I could keep going here for a long time without repeating a meal!! read more

So delicious!!! I ordered my usual Tuna Pike Fire Warm bowl & the ingredients were 100% on point! Loving the shredded jalapeños & cubed avocado! Thank you for giving me a great food experience! read more

I ordered the Korean rice bowl but subbed it with tofu and it was a well put together dish. Super tasty and it reminded me of bi him bap. However, I'm only giving 4 stars because they forgot my broccoli and egg I'm not sure if it's because it was lunch time and they forgot, but I get that it happens sometimes. Workers were friendly but the price is a little on the higher side read more

Quite possibly the best clean food I've ever eaten‼. I drive 30-40 minutes just to eat there at least once a month. Wish there was one in Spring Hill or Franklin. Anyway, every time I go I try something different and everything has been fabulous. You must try this place‼ See pics of the food. read more

Really good though a bit pricey. Everything was great. Outstanding drink selection of unique combos. My only complaints were the frozen rice noodles in my salad and the small portion of protein when you order tuna. Otherwise it was a great find. I only wish there were locations closer to me. I will definitely look for their locations when I travel. read more

Very good and filling options. I went twice already and both times were delicious. The prices were kind of higher but I expected that from how fresh the food was! This salad was a small and around 9 dollars. My husband and I went he got rice noodles and chicken bone broth plus my Cobb salad and two drinks it came out to be exactly 31.00! Be ready to wait in line because they are busy from the opening, we waited about 20 mins in line. The atmosphere is very millennial and Nashvilleish. We will be going back when we want to splurge. read more

Core Life food is good, there is no question about that. And you pay a premium price for it. Also understood. What is not acceptable with this model is when they are willing to give you less than premium but charge you for it anyway when they are out of something, like drink cups with lids for to go orders. If I am going to lay down $10-15 for a bowl of food, everything about that experience is expected to be top shelf, and everything includes sides, drinks, & service. If I can settle for less, I can go to Burger King and pay less for it, too. No excuses proffered, none accepted. read more

We ate here last night and I absolutely loved it! Definitely my kind of food. Walking in, it feels similar to chipotle's layout but instead of Mexican, they take a whole food approach offering salads, grain bowls, broth bowls, and power bowls. I ordered there seasonal special chicken with watermelon, jicama, and greens. I can't have cheese so they substituted avocado which was a very tasty substitute. My husband ordered the teriyaki steak broth both which was incredibly spicy (he was warned). If we lived in Murfreesboro, I would frequent this place. You don't feel stuffed or gross afterwards. read more

I got food here today for only the second time and the girl who took my order was extremely rude to me after i stood in line forever not feeling well. I had asked her if the ranch dressing was gluten free and with a very smart ass voice she says "everything is gluten free " and laughed angrily .. i just asked out of habit.. then i asked her to add cheese to my salad and she also in a very sarcastic smart ass type of voice said " thats gonna be extra" then when i got home with my food which is literally only 3 mins down the road also off medical center my chicken was dry and my potatoes were hard basically the food was enedible so i threw it away and had eggs for dinner. I will NEVER eat here again! read more

First time here and we really enjoyed the food. I got the spicy chicken Thai noodle- my only complaint is there was not enough noodles, but it's a good strategy to keep the calories down. We also had the coconut curry bowl- he said he was happy except next time he would double the chicken. The design of the restaurant is inherently loud, with us having to ask the service folks to repeat everything they asked us, remember, first-timers. We went on Sunday morning at noon, wasn't crowded but one child taking loud carried throughout the restaurant. I could understand why some folks ate outside in the heat. After we finished lunch they lowered the music and everything got pretty tolerable, even the clanking of the dishes. We will be going back to try all the different new different types of grains. read more

You know how you feel when you find an option for "healthy food" that taste exceptionally good? Try CORELIFE EATERY on Medical Center Parkway in Murfreesboro Tennessee. Lunch was a delightful experience. Penny and Brianna went out of their way to exude excellent customer service. I enjoyed the new Bone Broth Chicken Tortilla Bowl. The portion was very filling. It tasted wonderful. The atmosphere was clean, fast and friendly. (CoreLife has on line preferring, delivery, pick up service and catering service). Try this.

If you enjoy "clean eating" type places with fresh ingredients and plenty of healthy options you would be out of your mind to pass this place up. I've never had a bad dish from CoreLife, be it broth, greens, or grain bowl. The restaurant and facilities are equally clean as food options, and the staff are prompt and generally quite friendly. Owners are seen in there regularly and seem to really care about their business. read more

After eating here several times I am pleased with the flavors and options. I am disappointed at the cleanliness of the dining area and restrooms. I do consider this a reflection of the staff and management making me question the cleanliness of the food prep area. I will likely not be eating here again. There are similar options nearby where I do not have to clean tables and restrooms before using them. read more
