  • No, I would not go back!

Popped in there because it was recommended to me by employees at the Apple Store WELLLLL what I was looking forward too for a nice quick lunch was a joke. Not only were there phone lines down but I ordered a mediterranean chopped salad (to go which was probably the problem). The discription said chopped romaine salad topped with tomato, olive, feta cheese and served with a vinegarette dressing. Um excuse me! Where was everything????? All I got for $12 was chopped lettuce and vinegar!! There were probably three cut plum tomatos, a tablespoon of feta and mayyyyyyyybbee four olives. What a freaking JOKE!!!! I could've gotten a better salad at SUBWAY ! DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

I loved this place. The outdoor seating was on a really interesting intersection in the Meatpacking District, great for people watching. The softshell crab sandwich was great, and the honeysuckle cocktail was even better.

Some Hints:

  • The best reviews give a clear sense of why you liked or disliked a restaurant, bar, or store. And that means details. Mention specifics dishes, type of crowd, pros and cons...
  • If it's helpful to compare one place to another, go for it.
  • Come up with clever, funny, pithy subject lines, and write in the first person.
  • Don't forget to read the user rating guidelines and rules.
