I felt fresh in this restaurant waiting for them to prepare my salad and looking at photos of vegetables on the wall but I didn't feel fresh eating that salad. I've seen these Freshii locations all over Vancouver and decided to grab a quick to go lunch after errands in Squamish. Unfortunately something was a bit off about my Zen salad (think it was the dressing?), like something was allowed to live a little bit longer than it was supposed to in the refrigerator. And for over $9 my zen salad was comprised of half of the bad parts of romaine lettuce only had a few edamame, sour tasting mango bits (thank goodness there were only 4 tiny pieces), 3 tiny tiny shreds of broccoli, and soggy crunchy won ton strips, that's not so zen to me. Maybe they are not known for this salad or maybe I ordered the wrong thing? I have no idea but I'll never spend this amount of money for something that I can get way better and cheaper at McDonald's.
I was also disappointed that they don't make juices when you order, they pre-make everything and stick them in refrigerators, so if you come here closer to 1pm they are already out of a lot of options because they don't make more.
So why the three stars? Well service was good, they are fast and maybe I just don't know of what to order in here yet or this was just an off day. I'll give them a try again but not for that salad!
