    The central gourmet salad bar's loaded with 80-plus fixins', and prepped dinners include the fantastic pepper-crusted pork. There are also rotating themed bites and a wine bar. Read more

    Good option for a reasonably priced Gold Coast lunch. That said, if you're not extremely judicious with filling your plate at the salad bar, the price can soon rival the expensive restaurants nearby.

    Beyond the wine room "the quiet room" has a lot of additional seating, a pay station, and is generally out of site which keeps the room from becoming crowded

    One of the best psuedo-buffet place on Michigan Avenue. The hot food selections at the back changes monthly to match the time of the year.

    Thanks to the onsite pastry chef, many desserts are top-shelf, like the beautifully browned angel food cupcake ($2.95) and a chocolate almond croissant that rains down buttery, crisp flakes ($2.75). Read more

    Be careful about the weight on your plate... Highly recommend the mashed potatoes and meatloaf. Great soups. And make sure to customize your Coke drink!

    check out the "wine room" to the right.. it's a dining room with plenty of tables that the tourists don't know about!

    Delicious, fresh food. And, it has a really nice bar you can relax and have a glass of wine at, either after shopping or a long work day :)

    Their fruit is always fresh and juicy! Grab some pineapple, watermelon, grape fruit slices and a coconut water as fresh snack

    There is a quiet room for eating which is hidden past the wine room. It has its own cashier. And it has poor cell phone reception.

    Healthy food for travelers! If you're tired of oily, strong taste US food but still want to eat good food not spending too much, this is the place

    Sit at the bar. Order wine. Eat cheese. Eat cured meat. Enjoy the music and the people watching.

    Can't find a table? Head over to the Wine Shop, they have two tables for four that are usually empty because they are hidden from view.

    They use really high quality greens in their salad bar, like Tiny Greens organic spring mix and sprouts!
