I was excited to check this place out today. It wasn't exactly what I was expecting. I was expecting it to be heavier in green salads, this was heavy on different types of cold chicken salad that you'd make sandwiches out of. That's ok, I love chicken salad too, and I'm flexible. I chose a southern style chicken salad on their classic salad with honey Mustard dressing. And it was blah. Honestly, for a place that says the founder's mission was to find the perfect chicken salad I expected more. I did not feel like the chicken salad I got, nor the "spicy" (not really) pimento chicken salad that my husband got, were anything but bland. My husband (who isn't GF) said their mac was thick and pasty without much flavor either. Like I said, it was just blah. I expected more, especially at the price.

I feel like it was safe, but barely. I had asked them to flag my meal as GF making sure he knew I was super sensitive to cross contact, but then they still added (individually wrapped) crackers and a cookie to my plate? Sure, I don't feel like there was cross contact, but still felt a little violated. And it didn't leave me with much confidence that they were as careful to avoid cross contact as they promised with the utensils they used in the kitchen.
