"I note that the Everytable outpost at 620 Hacienda Drive in Vista is part of the company's expansion to increase access to freshly prepared food, offering the same individually packaged meals from its Los Angeles central kitchen — such as curry chicken, salmon adobo, and Spanish rice with shrimp and turmeric — plus wraps, desserts, snacks, and beverages. The store is primarily geared toward takeout and grab-and-go, though dishes can be heated for dine-in, and subscribers can pick up meals here rather than having them delivered. Like the Chula Vista location, menu items will range from $5 to $9 based on the neighborhood-linked pricing model; the company also offers a pay-it-forward program and uses stores as training hubs for a leadership program that enables employees to own and operate locations with no investment. CEO Sam Polk described the goal as “to become the McDonald’s of nutritious, delicious, fresh, and affordable fast food.” Starting Monday, March 21 through Friday, March 25, the Vista outpost is offering daily specials and promos, from buy-one-get-one-free meals to discounts on purchases and free desserts." - Candice Woo
