We got to have our dinner in the dining room which was so much nicer and peaceful than the bar area, which I also wouldn't have minded but it was too noisy for a relaxed evening. Service was wonderful and very accommodating! I also loved all the monkey decor, it really tickled me every time we spotted a different monkey haha. We started with the truffle monkey bread! It was so good! For my entree, I got the miso cod, buttery mashed potatoes and a coconut margarita which were all amazing! We even got a complimentary dessert for our anniversary which was a salted caramel ice cream with a candle! We also ordered a banana split for fun and we loved it. I would definitely come back even in the bar dining area because I want to try everyone else's food recommendations! 10/10!

I was pleasantly surprised as to the topping portions with the rest of the greens - it said their most popular add on was the 7oz grilled chicken, so I went for it....for like 7 more whole dollars. the diced roasted chicken was only $4 more so I totally could've done that....but I am a sheep. - the chicken was charred in a really tasty way, however, it was cripplingly dry. even dunked into the lemon olive oil dressing the chicken wouldn't soak it in enough to make it less dehydrated - the dressing was simple yet delicious. overall this was a wonderful salad, I just think $23 is a little....much

For a dairy-intolerant vegetarian, Le Botaniste offers safe, healthy, clean, diverse, and delicious food, and friendly service - why should one go anywhere else? When I entered its bright, spacious and nicely decorated premises, I was greeted right away by a staff, who most patiently explained all their food items and the process of ordering, answered my questions, and offered great suggestions. Everything on display was a feast for the eye and and enhancement for one's appetite. I chose the combo meal of half Longevity Bowl (I really wanted to try their Falafel!) and soup of the day (tomato soup). Everything comes with a pile of add-ons. I don't remember them all, but whatever they suggested and gave me, the combination tasted just awesome! The soup was thick in texture, rich in flavour, crunchy with the chopped nuts and seeds, and piping hot. Every bite of the Longevity Bowl was surprisingly delightful. I wasn't super hungry but somehow devoured everything as if starved. I didn't feel stuffed afterwards, just totally satisfied, but the actual "fullness" lasted much longer than I expected. Such is the magic of life-enriching organic produce. Upon departure, I was handed a card, which records one's visits, and after 5 visits, one gets a free bowl! I will certainly come back enough times for that :-)

I got the chipotle aioli for my sauce. I really wanted to like the as the concept of minimal ingredients was appealing. However, the entire box felt like it was missing something. It felt like a collection of side dishes that was looking for a main starch to be paired with. Had the box come with a pita bread or a base of grains and greens, I would have been able to better justify the price. Out of the sides, the one I liked the best was the spaghetti squash. The other ones lacked flavor and mostly tasted like salt. WOULD I GO BACK? Likely not.

Finally time to expand my slop bowl taste buds, so here's my Cava review…read more To start off, walking in, it resembled your average slop bowl place. The long line alongside the glass window that overlooks all the ingredients. These places are never unique in their ambience, but they also have tons of seating, so that's always a plus. The waiters here were very nice. Sometimes at other slop bowl restaurants, they'll be really stingy about portions, but that didn't happen at all. I feel like I got plenty of food and the servers were so kind. They made it so seamless and simple. Thank you very much for that. Now, the food. I got a bowl with basmati rice, braised lamb, pita crisps, tomato, onion, cucumber, olives, and hummus. I shook it up a little bit, and wow, I wasn't expecting it to taste that good. The mixing of all the ingredients kind of resembled more of a poke bowl, it was great. I think that Cava's ingredients make it so it's easier to taste all the individual ingredients while they're all being eaten. Honestly impressed with this slop bowl location is approved. Not that it matters from me, but now you know.

Everything just landed just slightly below good, and together the effect was cumulative mediocrity. For a chain, where you'd expect consistency and standards, that's a quiet failure. With no shortage of brunch options competing for your time and money, this one doesn't earn a return visit.

Decor/actual restaurant: This particular location is very small and tight with limited in-store seating. The interior is cute, I like the blue color theme they have here. For a restaurant designed for to-go orders, I believe that there could be more waiting room and a couple less chairs. Service: Like many "fast food adjacent" restaurants, the people who work there have good customer service but I imagine deal with the worst. I know they're doing great with the situation they're in. Kudos to them. Food: this is probably my harshest critique. I ordered a pesto chicken sandwich, and it was fine. I don't believe it was worth the $16 I spent though. The chicken was kind of bland, tasted similarly to frozen grilled chicken pieces you buy from a grocery store. I do wish there was more sauce. The pesto tasted good but overall there was too much bread. I fear you would be better off making something like this at home for a comparable price. The bread was good, just too much. I don't want to base the menu on this sandwich alone, a lot of the menu options sounded delicious, but this was just the experience I had!
