Fast N Fresh - Lakewood Ranch

I come here several times a week for lunch, and I'm never disappointed. I usually get a soup and salad combo. My favorites are tomato bisque or crab soup and the Cali crunch salad loaded with kale. They also put a healthy spin on a Waldorf salad. Today, for the first time, I tried one of their bowls and cannot believe how good it was. I have the flower child bowl that is pure vegan and with brown rice, chic peas, kale, plus many other goodies and a delicious tahini dressing. The staff is friendly. Food is extremely fresh, and service is usually fast. It's so much better and more creative than Panera.

Salad was tasty! The cashier was very rude to an older couple and a Bite Squad driver while I was waiting for my pickup. I still will likely try again. Food was pretty good

The food is always fresh and thanks to the convenience of their online ordering, lunch is a breeze. For someone like me who doesn't eat fast food and is health conscious, this place is a great option! The staff is always friendly and the place is always clean.

The menu includes soups, salads, sandwiches, paninis, and wraps. The ordering process was a bit confusing during our first visit. We noticed a station with clipboards and order forms where you fill out your choices if you want a salad, allowing for specific customization. This station also had a few menus for reference. After placing your order at the counter, you need to head to the back of the restaurant to pay at a long food prep counter. I didn't see a menu board, which might leave newcomers a bit lost if they aren't sure what to order. I'm not certain how helpful the staff would be beyond directing you to the menus, and there weren't any signs explaining the process clearly—perhaps I just missed something obvious. Once we ordered and paid, we found a seat, and our food was brought to us. While it wasn’t crowded during our visit, I wonder how efficiently things would operate with a larger number of customers. Overall, it seems like a warm, healthy spot to grab a quick bite while strolling down Main Street.

This restaurant is incredibly fast and fresh. I typically place my order online, so it's ready by the time I arrive. I've sampled several of their soups, salads, and sandwiches, and I have no complaints. The food is delicious and generously filled with ingredients.
