Anna BrowneAugust 31, 2017Great vegan options! Got a "make your own" with greens, white beans, sweet potato, tofu, seeds, and a tahini dressing. Fast, easy and delicious!

Ms HeleneMarch 14, 2018Protein options: salmon poké, 2 slices of tofu or charred beet falafel. Charred sweet potato was best. Sauces stood out: red pepper and walnut and the turmeric tahini. Order ahead to skip lineUpvoteDownvote
The food is yummy and if you download the app you get $ off your order after a while. These are great: roasted chicken, beet falafel, beet& lentils. I haven’t tried the salmon yet.UpvoteDownvote
TomApril 14, 2016Fresh, health, and delicious. Ample amount of seating. They accept Level Up ($2 credit) and lines move really quick, even during peek lunch hours.

A bit expensive but totally worth it! The salmon is yummy but the portion is small. Get the chicken instead for more bang for your buck. The fall seasonal squash is also banging!UpvoteDownvote
I'm obsessed with this place and get my lunch here most week days. It's not cheap but I'm worth it! So fresh, healthy and tasty. Also vegan friendly. Winning!UpvoteDownvote
Patrice ChenJuly 17, 2014Came here for dinner, they get so mang seamless orders! $7 for chicken, $8 steak and $4 for a side..on the pricey end but it's worth it. Food cooked really well and the broccoli and kale are super!UpvoteDownvote- Julie BiAugust 13, 2014I go for lunch here every other day, love the little beet salad with added grilled tofu! Millet side dish is also excellent. Get the app, you get a $5 credit for every $50 spent.UpvoteDownvote
Layla Khoury-HanoldJanuary 31, 2014Great healthy lunch spot - love the grilled chicken or tofu with sweet potato & lentil sides. Gripes: Upstairs seating is too hot (winter) and sandwiches are a miss.UpvoteDownvote
Little beet has been my favorite lunch spot ever since I work on time sq. Little bit pricy but pay through their app and save some money-you'll get $5 credited after $50 spent!UpvoteDownvote

Salmon with roasted sweet potatoes and charred vegetables for lunch. Healthy but expensive. FYI the line moves fastUpvoteDownvote
LaurettaDecember 30, 2013Finally a healthy veggie/vegan friendly quick serve place in the neighborhood! The millet side is a knockout.Upvote1Downvote
The sweet potatoes, cauliflower and wild rice are insane. In terms of proteins, I'd suggested the chicken or salmon over the steak.UpvoteDownvote

Brette M.January 27, 2014Great steak and sweet potatoes, but crazy prices. $11.50 for a juice? No thanks.

Everything is delicious here for lunch. I recommend it highly. However the breakfast is a rip off. Stay far away. Unless you like undercooked floppy bacon that is all fat. Then knock yourself out.UpvoteDownvote
Do yourself a favor and order online for pickup. The crowds here around 1pm are crazy.UpvoteDownvote
JustinApril 29, 2014Portions are on the larger end -- this is coming from someone with a big appetite. Easily 6oz of chicken.UpvoteDownvote
Erica van RabenswaaySeptember 16, 2015Charred Kale was like eating burnt paper. Good salmon, broccoli, & sweet potatoes small portions for price. $18 spent with Sanpellegrino.UpvoteDownvote- JustinApril 29, 2014There is free self-serve water. Better than buying a bottle for 600 Space Credits.UpvoteDownvote
