    UPDATE : Quality of food and service has gone down drastically since my initial post .

    This is a small shop that is kind of like a deli but it has everything. I specifically went here for a healthy affordable chopped salad. I was quite impressed with the bountiful fresh options for toppings and the reasonable prices (about $10 for a salad with protein). It was affordable, service was efficient, and the salad was quite tasty. My only complaint is that the salad dressing lacked flavor and seemed watered down (I had the sesame ginger) but hopefully it was just that salad dressing and the others are good! I'll be sure to ask for a sample of the dressing next time. They also had smoothies, sandwiches, hot food, pasta, etc. and really anything you would truly want!

    Extremely overpriced food for an extremely subaverage food and service.  I will admit the two good things about this place was the convenient location and ONE of the female cashiers was very nice... you'll know which one bc the others are not customer friendly.. especially if you weren't a regular or a man. I've personally witness the drastic difference in behavior.  I didn't go here just once, I wasted my money on them 5 times..

    I initially wasn't going to leave this place a review bc there wasn't anything spectacular about it and there wasn't a super negative experience that would influence me to write a review.. until my last experience there and I haven't returned since.

    My friend and I came here to eat breakfast before we went to Central Park.  The way this place is set up is that you have to go to another station for food that needs to be prepared in front of you and there is one location where you choose what you want and they just heat it up.  I ordered with the guy that I needed one panini for myself (only needs to be headed up) and I ordered an egg sandwich to be prepared at the other station.  Well, my friend and I went to the other station and told the guy that I only needed one egg sandwich, he said ok and then said we can go to the cashier and he'll bring it to us (which was very nice to offer to be honest).  I told the cashier that I ordered a chicken panini and an egg sandwich..  by now, 15 minutes passed and the pre - made panini was not ready so the cashier asked the guy if he made the panini yet and he obviously forgot bc I saw him with my eyes take the panini from the fridge to heat it up and in the mean time the other guy came to deliver the egg sandwich and he came with TWO egg sandwiches. We told him we ordered one sandwich and he insisted I said two and would not give up on that.  He was so rude and told me to take it bc I ordered two, he was standing so close to me and was trying to intimidate me into saying yes so we pay would have to pay for the other one.. I told him that I only ordered two sandwiches one panini and one egg and maybe he was confused but he said no, he insisted I said two eggs.  Mind you, none of the employees spoke English well.. so I can be sympathetic to them but he made me feel really uncomfortable being so close and trying to get me to buy another egg sandwich that we never ordered that my friend had to step in and tell him we only ordered one egg sandwich.  Thinking about the whole situation really makes me upset still, not bc of the "misunderstanding" but mainly bc of the guy that was so rude and insistent that we pay for the additional sandwich we never ordered... it's not even a basic mistake.

    False marketing.  When most people (along with myself) see the word "green" nowadays, we connect that with eco-friendly, vegan/vegetarian, and healthy.  Well this place is none of those characteristics.  The only thing green about this place is the decoration and the amount of money you will spend on this low quality place.

    I absolutely would NOT recomendable anyone to go where when there are better options around at a cheaper price.  It annoys me when I think about how I wasted money on this place.  

    Honestly, if you decided to check it out yourself, I hope you have a better experience than I did.

    love this place! I order seamless here all the time - great pricing and fresh ingredients.

    This is my go to spot for breakfast delivery and their build your own salad is as good as any chic chain spot at $5 cheaper.
