Today I went to get my free bowl. But the line was a bit long, but it moved pretty fast. Employees very attentive and friendly. Also the place is very nice. And about the food, it was delicious. read more

Today's experience was breath of fresh air! If you are wanting to make healthier choices with your eating habits you wouldn't want to miss fine lunch at Fresh Kitchen! Conveniently located off Newberry Rd and 62nd Blvd in Gainesville with plenty of Parking. Once I waked in I was greeted by a few friendly staff, I mentioned I was I was a new timer and they were more than welcome to assist. I was recommended to try the Perfect Spicy Rice and boy this rush didn't disappoint! I ordered a 4 Bowl with Roasted Salmon, with Perfect Spice Rice, Spinach Salad, Lemon Garlic Broccoli, and Creamy White Ginger Sauce. The staff had a huge catering event they were repairing for and accidentally brought me a Chicken Tender dish but quickly made it up to me with a Complimentary Drink. I mentioned it was okay because I was treated so well and enjoyed the beautiful Ambiance and cool restaurant music. I rate this place 10/10, I will surely visit again! Thanks Fresh Kitchen!! read more

Got some takeout from here and the food wasn't bad, it actually tasted pretty good. However, don't really think the portions are worth the price. The worst part, out of the skimped out chicken portion, there were several RAW chicken pieces. Didn't get the drips but won't be back anytime soon. Salmonella is definitely not a vibe. read more

For a nice filling lunch today I decided to stop by Fresh Kitchen after my workout. I have seen this place in Tampa before and heard nothing but great things, so of course I was looking forward to my meal. This location is placed right outside of the Oaks Mall and immediately I loved the interior aesthetics. Very tropical and the millennial pink vibe, and also so clean. The staff was super friendly and helpful with helping me choose my bowl options. I picked the 6 bowl which included: 2 bases, 2 veggies, 2 proteins, and one sauce. I got the kale slaw, sweet potato noodles, chickpeas, broccoli, citrus chicken and I substituted a protein for an extra veggie which were the green beans. The crew member recommended the white ginger sauce and it was so tasty. I ended up splitting the bowl with my parents as the bowl portion was more than enough for all of us. I'll definitely be back for more in the future! read more

The food is really great because you can choose which bases, veggies, proteins, and sauces you can have. I loved what I chose: sweet potato noodles, BBQ chicken, chic peas, and their house made sriracha! The service was really friendly and super quick! The ambience felt like it was supposed to be Miami themed with wallpaper and neon lights. The music was good, but the house lights could've been more Miami. Overall, great place for a fresh bite to eat! read more

As first-timers navigating the plethora of vegan options, the patient staff made our experience delightful, even though we created a bit of line for them! Special shoutout to Ray, the manager, for his thoughtfulness towards our toddler. We always love a place that's super kind to our tiny human. Ray not only offered an extra treat but also accommodated our dietary restrictions with a refreshing juice. He went out of his way to find us at our table after we had ordered and were seated. The cashier checking us out also gave our sonshine an avocado sticker! Highly recommend for both delicious food and exceptional service! Thank you for adding some love and kindness to our Saturday you made it extra special!! read more

Staff here is so kind, the portions and quality are great. Probably one of the best locations i've been to. Everyone had a great attitude and they were all cleaning up, good experience all around. read more

Fresh Kitchen - Citrus chicken, broccoli and cauliflower mash - Gluten-Free Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

Good choice for super healthy foods. No hot coffee for those of us who like our morning coffee. Also, the beverage machine wasn't working so you had your choice of bottled juices (carrots, greens), or canned cold coffee. You walk up to counter and choose what bowls you want. You can get sweet potato noodles, mashed cauliflower, or rice for your starch. Add either veggies (mushrooms, green beans). Add protein like BBQ chicken, sliced beef, etc. we were starved from traveling, so this fit the bill. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it. Fairly pricey for doing all the work yourself. Then poor choice of drinks and no hot coffee, sealed it for me. read more

This place makes me smile. Beyond delicious, bright fun food! We have ordered catering on two occasions and everyone was obsessed with the dishes. It's tough to totally nail medium rare/medium steak for 20+ guests and they manage to do it every time. My husband is somewhat of a picky eater and he can't get enough of the chickpeas. Who would have guessed? My faves are the almond chicken, sweet potatoes and white ginger sauce. You can't really go wrong with any of the sauces. Fair warning - the siracha sauce is hot hot hot. read more

Amazing food. Miss it since I moved to another city in Florida Love the kale and choices

Loved the food! Super fresh, quick service, everything tastes great together! Nice ambiance!

My first experience today for lunch was Amazing!!! You build your own bowl with a base of brown rice, cauliflower avocado rice... I forgot the other two. You pick your protein of marinated chicken, steak, salmon. Fresh hot or cold veggies. And the sauces to die for! I had the four: brown rice, Caesar kale, steak, basil mushroom, and holy kale sauce!!! Highly recommend!!! read more

obsessed with fresh kitchen. their food is always spot on. i love how its healthy but also delicious! the inside was so cute with light pink booths. i got a four bowl with kale caesar salad, cauli potato mash, green beans, & the baked almond chicken tenders. i always get those chicken tenders they are amazing. for sauce i get a side of the creamy ginger one because its addicting. they even have cane sugar sodas here! read more

This place was a unbelievable surprise!! So delicious. If I lived near Fresh Kitchen I am sure I would be there every week. We got off I-75 for gas and it's so hard to find healthy fast food on the road. We were headed to Chik Fil A until we realized it was in the mall and stumbled on this gem. Best meal, GF I've ever had on a road trip!!! The steak tasted like filet. Seriously delicious read more

I was staying at the La Quinta and finally settled in around 8 pm. I needed to find a place with decent food nearby. I tried Fresh Kitchen and really liked it! The employees were so friendly and the food was fresh. I liked it so much that I returned the next afternoon before leaving town. I ordered the 6 bowl with salmon and tofu, spicy rice, kale, noodles, chickpeas, green beans, and toasted almonds. The strawberry juice fresca juice is amazing! It's not cheap. It was $18 the first night and $25 the second time because I ordered a fountain drink. The employees came outside and checked on diners and even brought my dog a bowl of water while I ate. read more

It's been a minute Yelp Gainesville Community, but I had a dust off this old account to write a great 1-Star review for my new least favorite restaurant in Gainesville. Fresh Kitchen is by far my least favorite health food location and the food is just plain bad. Let me give yo some details. First, you can do a Four Bowl, which is 2 Base, 1 Veggie, 1 protein and 1 sauce. Or your can do a six bowl which is 2 base, 2 veggie, 2 protein, 1 sauce. This option is like $11.99. So I go with this option. Now you think this would be a lot of food but it is not. I've never been to a place that is so set in small portions, that you literally have a half filled bowl on the end. My base I got the chilled sweet potato noodles and the power rice. The rice was okay. The sweet potato noodles are chilled and prob the best thing I ate. For my veggies I got the mushrooms! First again super small portion, second they were burned! Like not a little burned they were black and you tasted how burnt they were. My partner got the mushrooms too and said the same thing. I also got the green beans which were okay. Proteins. I hope you like chicken! If you want beef or salmon you are paying a lot more for a mediocre bowl. I got the bbq chicken. It was gross, there was cartilage in the meat and made it hard (impossible to chew) I also got the almond chicken which was super dry! If you want to add anything else get the wallet out cause it's gonna cost you. The sauce was coconut sriracha and not bad. But the portion size was so small. The girl who put the chicken in the bowl didn't even put a full scoop. She said they are watched like a hawk and if they give to much they get in trouble. But not even a full scoop went in! The dragon fruit lemonade was gross! No flavor and sugar at all! For two dinners and two drinks it was $38 and then they asked to tip? What am I tipping for you are literally not serving me! It's like chipotle, we don't tip there! You put food in a bowl and were very stingy! I won't be back! Go to Bolay or Vale. Bolay and Vale are cheaper, you don't have to pay extra for beef, you get more food and the staff are way more friendly! read more

Fresh Kitchen was the one of the best eating-healthy places up to now for me. I hope they open a branch at or around FSU in the future! Bowl was so filling, I highly recommend crunchy kale salad base. read more

It's good and service is fast but nice employees. It is a little confusing if it's your first time there and hard to figure out what to put in your meal. I have been several times and can say I have enjoyed the food. The prices are a tad high but it's always consistent and good. I would recommend it for anyone. read more

Great concept. Pick your base, veggies and protein and make your own personal healthy bowl. Staff was great. Food was awesome. The steak, BBQ chicken and grilled mushrooms were my favorite. Everything looked and tasted so fresh. If you are looking for hot, fresh, healthy options then this is the place. We have already looked on their website and found other locations to visit. read more

First time customer, had sweet potato noodles and a kale salad and sweet potatoes and barbecue chicken and a white creamy garlic sauce. All very tasty: 4.7 outa 5. Very nice and clean. Staff was friendly. Not a place I'd go to frequently but was nice for something new and different. read more

Just like Bolay or Grill Fresh. Good vibe and good food. A bit pricey, but isn't these days.

I was excited for Fresh Kitchen to open up in Gainesville. The service is nice, the interior is cute, and they offer a healthy selection of foods. I've gone a handful of times and I realized that the portion sizes have been inconsistent every time. I usually get a four bowl with the same contents: kale slaw, cauli mash, sweet potatoes, almond chicken, and coconut sriracha. One time I went, the server sifted through the chicken and gave me the smallest pieces of chicken, and the guy after me got the same thing but he got noticeably bigger portions . During the other times I usually see they balance it out with a small piece and a bigger piece. Shoutout to the guy who gave me two bigger chicken tenders the last time I went! Hoping to see more balanced and consistent portions next time. read more

Super yummy and leaves you feeling healthy. This place is very similar to Bolay, but a bit more expensive. I got my bowl as part of a catering order, so I got all the toppings I wanted. However, if I was paying, I would not have paid for all of the extras (ex. avocado, tomatoes, salmon). Without these extras, the bowl would not have been as good. It is very tasty and they use real ingredients, but I would probably choose Bolay because of the price. The workers and environment is very pleasant though! read more

Love love this place. Great food great healthy options. I usually stop by when I'm traveling as it's a great option over fast food greasiness. Health yet delicious. Yes you can have both. read more

The person preparing my bowl literally drowned it in sauce, continued pouring after I said "that's good" twice and their coworker had to tell them to stop. Your only choice of utensil here is plastic, which is beyond gross. Will not order here again read more

Amazing service and good, clean food. I am gluten feee and dairy free and finding options is usually hard but everything here is GF/DF

The food was very fresh indeed! The chicken was juicy (I got both barbecue and citrus), the broccoli was a great texture and had a great flavor, the sweet potato noodles were yummy, and the cauliflower rice really tasted nothing like cauliflower (this was a plus LOL). Only 4 stars because portion and price (but reasonable to a lot of people). Overall very good!!! read more

Rude service. Inconsistent pricing. They don't put there customers first. Literally over charged me then argued with me about the inconsistent pricing when I come to multiple locations twice a week and it's always the same price. Now my food is cold and they wasted my time. I swear Gainesville is so back country they don't know how to run a restaurant. read more

Steak smelled like poop. Excellent service over all. Definitely wouldn't recommend though.

Food is way too salty! We were so surprised that almost every item in our bowls was noticeably over-salted. We didn't finish our meals it was so powerful. We don't avoid salt, but this can't be good for us (hello high blood pressure), but the taste was just too much. This kinda ruined an otherwise great idea..... read more

Super yummy!! A lil pricey but I still love coming here. Fresh food always! Great options!

Awesome place to eat if you're vegan or gluten-free! They are gluten and dairy free so they have something for your carnivore friends but almost all their delish veggie sides are dairy free so suitable for vegans! I've been 3 times already and I just moved to Gainesville 4 weeks ago. I'll be back! read more

First time ever and not the last. Totally loved all that I ate. We ate so quickly and forgot photos. The Citrus Chicken was juicy and tender. The experience was nothing short of fantastic. read more
