The owners are very nice people and welcome you wholeheartedly into the establishment. They use extremely fresh produce for everything they serve too! Today I got the California Sandwich, and I bought my mother the Oxy Pomegranate smoothie and the cranberry muffin. My sandwich tasted like the ingredients had just been harvested from the garden. The turkey was juicy, flavorful, and filling. The muffin was really moist and had just the right amount of sweetness. This store also sells a wide variety of supplements, cooking ingredients, coffee, and more. It's like a health food store mixed with a top-tier, intentional deli. I highly recommend checking it out! They even serve awesome burgers here!

This is the cutest little café with fun shop items and lots of delicious choices from ready-to-eat items in the refrigerator and display case to a whole menu. I didn't have time to explore as much as I wanted to as I need to get back to my errands so I just ordered a slice of the ham quiche. It was incredible! I ate every bite and it was super satisfying! I can't wait to go back and try other items, but I will probably have to get a slice of the quiche to go to have a later point in the day since that was so tasty.

Morena Provisions is one of the restaurants near my workplace. I had passed by for several years…read morewithout having stepped inside. My coworker and I recently decided to try various restaurants at lunchtime, so one Thursday, we walked into Morena Provisions. The interior is really cute, with lots of gift items and delicious-looking baked goods under the glass display. The woman who greeted us was also friendly. The back wall displayed several pre-prepared takeout items in plastic containers, along with various beverages, including a few bottles of wine. I took some time to study the menu. At the time, I was on a diet that was low carb, which meant that I was not ordering any of the sandwiches or bakery items. I thought the chicken atichoke salad sounded good. However, when I ordered it, I was disappointed to learn that it was one of the pre-prepared items, as I had hoped for a big green salad with chicken. However, they kindly added spring mix to the chicken salad to give me sort of what I had hoped for. I will say, that, though they were very nice to do this, it seemed that the serving and left me hungry, and it was pretty pricey for a pre-made chicken salad. My friend ordered one of the panini on the menu. I think she enjoyed it, but I would also say that it was very small. When I asked if she would be interested in returning, she said that she would prefer to go elsewhere, as Morena Provisions just doesn't have the best value for the price. All in all, it is a nice place, but I don't think that the serving sizes or the products themselves merited the prices that we paid. Perhaps there are other items on the menu that would be a better value. Also, it seems from the other reviews that the bakery items are a favorite. I would possibly try it again, but order a different item. For me, it was a 3-star experience.

It is a cool concept. I finally got the chance to try it out. I walked in and there was a solo customer and a group of three people ahead of me. The solo customer had just finished her order and I was focused on the menu so not really paying attention. Basically, you choose your base, additional add-ins, a protein, and dressing. The party of three in front of me were kind of talking amongst themselves and told me that I could go ahead. As I was ordering, I noticed they changed their mind and abruptly headed out. I was unsure why. The place is clean and ingredients look super fresh. As I was finishing up my order, I saw why they changed their mind and left. The woman serving me was helping me cut up my protein (chicken) and scooped it up with the knife and her gloves hand. She proceeded to pick up the remaining pieces with her gloved hand and place it in my salad. She immediately grabbed a towel and wiped her gloved hands with said towel. I was shocked and grossed out at the same time! She then rang me up (with same gloves on) and packed my order ina bag. I did not see her change her gloves at all. I understood why the party of three in front of me left. I was hopeful that the gloves were relatively new. I thought if I air fried the chicken well enough before the eating it with the salad, I might be safe. I was wrong. I had food poisoning. The salad was likely compromised by the chicken, but it could easily have been the chicken too (although I heated it up really well). I know it was from the salad because this was the only thing I ate that day and within the last 24 hours. When I work my shifts, I fast and when I get off, I sleep and get food a few hours after I wake up. It is sad because this place is clean and ingredients look fresh. The woman who handled my food was relatively friendly. I think she just needs retraining. This is why food servers get food handlers cards. I did scope out the place the next time I was eating at Flame Broiler. It was a different server and he changed his gloves and appeared to handle everything properly. That's why I can't give this place just a one star. Just be aware of how your food is being handled when you go in. Gloves are good if you change them and know how to handle food properly... otherwise, they are pointless! 0 / 5 - Food (poor handling) 3 / 5 - Cleanliness 3 / 5 - Service 2 / 5: Overall

My partner and I stopped by Evolution Fast Food in El Cajon this past Monday 06/29/26, and it was…read moreone of the highlights of our trip! As first-timers, we weren't sure what to order, but the young woman at the front (sorry we didn't catch your name!) was incredibly welcoming. She took the time to walk us through the menu, offered thoughtful recommendations, and made us feel like regulars. That's what great customer service looks like. We ended up ordering the Asada Fries and the Fuego Burger. When our food arrived, we both looked at each other like, "Okay...this is about to be good." The presentation was on point, and thankfully, the flavors lived up to the hype. Let's just say the fries didn't stand a chance. As a business owner myself, I know that great customer service is what keeps people coming back. Pair that with delicious food, and you've got a winning combination. We'll definitely be making Evolution Fast Food a must-stop on our next trip to San Diego. Until then, we'll be dreaming about those Asada Fries!

Non vegan reviewer here…read more The fysh tacos had a nice crunch to it but lacked salt/ fishiness taste. Majority of the flavor came from the chipotle cashew cream sauce and guac. Maybe it would taste better if they added lime slices on the side. Took about 10 minutes from ordering at counter to receiving food. Most likely wouldn't order fysh tacos again. Saw a lot of people ordering dishes with fries in it. Maybe get that instead next time. There are very few tables indoor and a few tables outdoor, recommend for small groups only. Shares parking lot with Donna Jean restaurant.

Here for work from NJ and bookmarked this place for the plethora of vegetarian options…read more A friend and I were the first ones in and after deciding on a few dishes to try, the friendly staff were more happy to answer questions. Firstly- the portions are huge! Salt and Pepper Tofu - Crispy chunks of tofu and broccoli with lots of flavor. This is a dry dish so the tofu stays crispy all through. Mongolian Crispy "Beef" - Amazing umami flavor. I got halfway through eating top to bottom before I realized the crispy short rice noodles were at the bottom! Advice: Mix it as you get it before eating. As we were finishing what we could of the meal we could smell fresh baked goods. I went to get a box for leftovers from the back counter and saw trays of fresh baked cookies on the counter. Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal Raisin, and the one that had my attention- Funfetti with an Oreo in the middle! When I asked if they had any ready up front they insisted I have one of the hot fresh ones out the oven! No pic of the cookie, it didn't make it far! Wish we had places like this near me in NJ.

And it got messy since i didn't have a fork but that's on me so I highly recommend you ask for one!
