If you are not able to arrive at 5pm, I'd recommend calling ahead to get the estimated wait time to plan accordingly. The food is solid.

I'd recommend splitting the entrees or ordering family style if you are with a large group. This is a common nicer date spot in the area and is very busy on family weekend or other major dates for the surrounding universities.

Since seating inside is quite limited, it's definitely more geared toward quick grab-and-go orders. Unfortunately, I had a poor experience with my order. I ordered the fried eggplant sub and specifically asked for no onions due to a food allergy. When I opened my sandwich, it was loaded with raw red onions. Because of my allergy, I wasn't able to enjoy the meal. I really wanted to like this place, but severe allergy mix-ups make it hard for me to return or recommend. I hope the team takes order notes and customization requests more seriously in the future for customer safety.

I frequent this location 3X per week, as it offers Vegetarian items on my list of important lunches…read moreand dinners. The Natural food section of Wegmans may offer similar items, but prices are generally the same, and the variety of Vegan/Vegetarian items at Greenstar is more to my taste and palate. The breakfast hot bar includes Beyond sausage links and scrambled tofu (also buttermilk biscuits for the southern inner child in all of us). I especially like the Indian food options at Greenstar and the small lunch prepared foods like spanakopita, vegan club sandwiches, and burritos. Frozen foods offer Cascadian Farms frozen cherries, which augment my daily bowl of Oatmeal. The NA beer section is comprehensive including the latest offerings from Athletic.

They have such an extensive merchandise, and a wonderful prepared foods/baked goods section!! I recently tried the "Made to Order" sandwiches, and it was DELICIOUS. I made mine with BBQ seitan, hummus, vegan cheddar, vegan mayo, spring greens, tomato, + condiments on a baguette. So flavorful and such a wonderful size. I've also placed special orders for their cakes and it was sooo good. My family couldn't been believe it was vegan! Outside of their food, the staff is always super friendly and helpful with any inquiries. Additionally, the store is always super clean and never too busy. They also have CO-OP member savings which are amazing! I love GreenStar!! :)

You're not truly living until you've drowned one in their magical boom boom sauce. And the salad bowls? They've somehow made me a believer that greens can be exciting. Seriously, it's the best salad on campus. Other stuff like their pho noodles are mehhhh. The vibe is solid -- decent indoor ambiance, plus outdoor seating for when you're feeling fancy. This place does get packed faster than a lecture hall on syllabus day. If you don't time it right, you might be left holding your burrito bowl like it's a newborn, desperately hunting for a seat. TL;DR: Come for the boom boom sauce, stay for the best eats on campus, and pray for non-awkward seats.

My friends went with burgers and fries, while I decided to try something different and ordered the onion soup. I don't normally order onion soup, but I really enjoyed it! This isn't a fancy place, but it has a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere, and that's something I really appreciate. The waitstaff was also very nice, friendly, and polite, which always makes a difference. Sometimes, a casual spot with good company, a fun game, and a comfortable vibe is exactly what you're looking for. A great place to catch a game with friends! I'd happily come back.

The Greenhouse, with its cafe-by-day and lowkey bar-by-night atmosphere is perfect for this. I arrived at 3pm and there were two table occupied, with a few more folks trickling in between the time I arrived and 5pm. This was ideal for a quiet afternoon of studying and working. I note this, because the space can become much livelier later at night, when folks transition to (delicious) cocktails and enjoy occasional live music. I recommend the Blue Skies gin cocktail, but I'm looking forward to trying multiple others on their menu. I ordered chicken sliders, which had a great aioli. Felt reasonable for $12 -- could easily be shared with another person. The interior is delightful, with a gorgeous seated bar and lots of healthy plants. The people working were lovely too.

"Creative and whimsical" pizzas…read more Eta Pie in Ithaca NY was recommended by friends for some of their fun recipes, so we got several to-go for our contribution to a little gathering. We started off easy, with a Napoli red-sauce cheese pizza. It's made with the best San Marzano tomatoes and fresh basil, generous fresh-tasting sliced mozzarella, and a tasty tangy an Italian cheese blend. The red sauce was a traditional flavorful slightly sweet, slightly garlicky tomato sauce. All on a tasty thick-edged bready crispy-crusted soft-inside crust. It was a delightfully better-than-it-has-to-be cheese pizza. We thought the Palo Alto BBQ chicken pizza would suit us: richly flavored sweet lightly smokey BBQ sauce, mozzarella & smoked gouda, grilled chicken, and red onions. It was basically a flatbread. It tasted good, but to quote a guest, "it wasn't pizza" :-). Maybe it was the gouda that pushed it to the fancier edge. We struck out on our own with an olive and sausage red-sauce pizza. This was our favorite, due to the sweet bright fennel, garlic, black-pepper sausage, which surely tasted freshly home-made. Eta Pie has creative recipes and ingredients. Cheeses can incluse Gorgonzola, provalone, feta, paneer, Swiss, and ricotta. Sauces and drizzles include blue cheese, ranch, garlic butter, honey, pineapple-habanero, crema, mornay, pesto, herbed crème fraiche, masala, Korean BBQ, and a spicy red-sauce. Toppings include steak, carnitas, Black Forest ham, fried chicken, shrimp, clams, scallops, smoked salmon, bacon, bulgogi, caramelized onions, vidalia onions, jalapeños, broccoli, fried eggplant, spinach, artichoke hearts, kimchee, and even peaches! Meet the Eta Pie philosophy: creative culinary seriousness. Choose thoughtfully, and you will find excellence on a crust :-)
