If you are looking for light and fresh food this place is great. All there food is vegan by default and you can add on protein. Friendly staff, quick service. They have fully contactless kiosk and QR for ordering food.A bit on the expensive side, but in 2023 food isn't cheap, and healthy food is down right expensive. Even though I paid over $20 for a chicken salad I felt that I was getting a good value.If it's your first time to diamond jamboree shopping center be prepaid. Parking is a nightmare.Vegetarian options: Almost everything is vegan by default, you can add meatParking: Diamond jamboree parking is horrible. There is just too many Good restaurants and not enough parking. Lunchtime is a zoo

I heard good things from other people and wanted to try this place out; however, taste and portion size vs. pricing were disappointing. I ordered a Mediterranean Fuel Bowl, which was $14.95 without proteins. Adding chicken cost extra, and the chicken was dry and lacked flavor. The portion was small for the high price that you are paying. Despite the small portion, there was insufficient amount of sauce to coat and flavor the components; I was given a to-go packet of Tapatío hot sauce to add into a bowl. I've never seen that at any other Mediterranean restaurant before and I find that the flavors do not compliment each other well. Given that it is located in the Diamond Jamboree plaza, you are better off eating elsewhere.

Great customer service, great ingredients, great decor and displays. A very nice place to grab lunch !! Frapps are great and they'll add substitutes with milks or sweeteners and give little mint chocolates as a complimentary item. If you're in the area give it a try!Dietary restrictions: They substitute items if you have lactose allergies and will make things purely vegan/vegetarian if you're such. Im not got the chicken wrap was amazing I would recommend if you need some nutrient dense food with protein
