Kale Me Crazy | Health Food Cafe Buckhead Atlanta

Let me say, I am not a negative Nancy I hate to complaint. This was my first time being here. The person who brought me my to go order did not hand it to me in my hand like they did for another customer, they dropped it on the table. How freak’s disrespectful. But the food was delicious and I would like to return with service like that is it worth it? Yummy try the sea moss shots they were delicious. My sister said the overnight oats they were the bomb but didn’t taste any honey. My son had the avocado salmon wrap, my daughter had the salmon salad, my hubs had açaí bowl no one had any complaints so thankfully it was money well spent. Just bad service!

“I absolutely loved this place! The food is incredibly fresh, healthy, and full of flavor. You can really tell they use high-quality, natural ingredients. I had their açaí bowl and it was hands down the best I’ve had outside of Brazil — smooth, rich, and not too sweet, just like it should be. The atmosphere is super cozy and clean, and the staff was friendly and helpful. If you’re looking for a spot that serves real, nutritious food that also tastes amazing, this is the place. Can’t wait to come back!”

I have no problem spending money on good quality food. But I really don’t think the prices and quality are truly congruent here. The turkey wrap is about $15. It’s 75% lettuce, 15% wrap, & 10% turkey. I get the need for margins and it’s a business but geezzz.

Love how fresh my food is every time. I’ve been coming here for years! I highly suggest here. Especially when you’re looking to ear healthy or get over a cold. There were a couple of times when I was sick, their shots were the key to my wellness. 10/10

I really enjoyed their tropical tripping and recovery smoothies. Expect to wait around 5 -10 min as it can get pretty busy during lunch time. The place itself is not very big but there was plenty of seating options and decorated in a nice clean simple manner.

we absolutely ❤️ KMC…….but our experience just now was 😮bad ordered our favorites (1) tuna wrap, and (2) smoothies to be delivered via DoorDash. perfect delivery experience arriving on time….. but shocked to find THIS sent to us as a tuna wrap- eta- we are shocked how bad this was. The “tuna” was sour and obviously old as heck. Served on ciabatta?? We have become accustomed to the wonderful service and always fresh food at the Brookhaven location. In the event corporate is listening, Id get ahold of this franchisee…..and quick. For full disclosure, the smoothies were fine.

Wanted a healthy breakfast option after arriving in Atlanta on a super early flight. So happy I found this place! Incredibly refreshing, welcoming and polite staff. Very clean! I ordered the Recovery Smoothie, the Mushroom Coffee Iced Latte, and the Deluxe Açaí Bowl. Omg! Everything was delicious and exactly what I needed.

Im in love with everything at Kale Me Crazy, the egg sandwich is by far my favorite! I find myself eating it multiple times a week- it’s that good! I tried making it at home but it’s just not the same. I also recommend trying their Go Getter smoothie if you’re looking for a good source of protein. With their fresh quality ingredients, Kale Me Crazy never disappoints!

I've eaten KMC for years and have enjoyed their healthy and tasty menu. I recently went to this specific location and had a phenomenal experience and had to share. As soon as I walked in the door I was greeted by Gil who, next to the quality food is the reason why I will be coming back again and again. He recommended a new food item that was advacado toast with scrambled eggs and it was delicious and filling. I haven't ordered the advacado toast in the past as I don't like hard boiled eggs but the scrambled eggs are perfect. Although my order was ready in no time I couldn't help but stay and eat (I ordered to go) so I could continue my conversation with Gil. Post covid I have found this type of customer service rare and wish more people like Gil were in the service industry! There is plenty of seating inside and outside and the inside is decorated well, looking forward to see what their holiday decorations will be. Plenty of parking 5/5

Kale Me Crazy is a cute little spot, but the food is just... okay. I ordered the egg sandwich, and it honestly tasted like something AI would generate--bland, overly processed, and completely forgettable. Nothing about it stood out. The service is great as the cashier's were friendly. The restaurant itself has a nice aesthetic, and I can see the appeal for a quick, healthy-ish bite, but if you're looking for something flavorful or memorable, this isn't it. It's not bad, just incredibly average.

Horrible experience with customer service with the manager Liad. My smoothie was awful. I paid $2.50 extra for ginger and there was no ginger in my smoothie. The manager, Liad, had the audacity to call me after I already spoke with an employee for a refund - to tell me he watched the cameras and they did put ginger in my smoothie and that "this isn't smoothie king". He was extremely rude and refused to refund the cost of the ginger and continued to argue that I was wrong which to me, is going above and beyond to be rude and maybe one of the worst customer service experiences I've experience with the way I was spoken to. I recommend Dtox over this place any day.

Kale me Crazy is good if you need a nice quick bite! I always get the salmon toast! It's super good and the service is always nice! The overall ambiance is pretty cool and they have indoor and outdoor seating and free parking. It can get kinda pricey but is nice for a quick stop!

If you are ever in need of a quick breakfast, the salmon avocado toast from Kale me Crazy will be your favorite!

I love this place so much it's my go to for lunch/dinner everyday after work. Gil the guy that works the front, is a God send. He knows what I like to order and he even remembers what food allergies I have. The food is so fresh, delicious, and it's not outrageously expensive. You get what you pay for, so if you want high quality food it's going to cost a little more. The inside of the restaurant is nice especially the patio, so sometimes I stay and eat my food. If you dine in they'll wait on (bring your food out, bring you utensils, and pick up after you) even though you're not tipping. Needless to say KMC one of my all time fave spots. It's just an added bonus that all the food is super healthy.

Great food, great customer service, highly recommend! Very relaxing place and food came out within 5 minutes. will definitely be back !

Service is lukewarm at this location. Then having to pay $11 for an 8oz half a** made smoothie, that didn't give me the fruit/veggie volt I was seeking...just eh. I'm definitely not keen that there is not a mask mandate as a lot of fitness people come here, even with some folks hanging out & chatting it up. Regarding my OCD, the Grab N Go section was dirty, yet what is one to expect if safeguarding people's healthy & sanitizing isn't a priority. Not canceling out KMC as the other location by Vinings was spot on = will have to travel a little further to be satisfied at the minimum.

Good vibes and healthy food options. The items are a bit overpriced but the quality is consistent

I usually order Togo through the yelp app with no issues. My order is always ready in a timely fashion and the staff is always friendly.

Im not sure what the issue is today but there is no reason why it takes 20+ mins to make a smoothie. Usually I am in and out in less than 10 mins. I'm not sure of his name but the guy on the register (1st time seeing him). Talked wayyyy too much instead of just taking people's order. The ingredients for my smoothie sat on the counter why when it could have been blended for a quick in and out. Once my smoothie was done again it sat on the counter. I know NOT to come on Wednesdays staff is slow and talks TOO much

Nice service. Minimalistic ambiance/aesthetic. Really like my smoothie and efficient service at this locations

They gave me the wrong order and I don't eat meat so the wrap was just thrown away. Wasteful and left me with no lunch. The smoothie was good though

I wanted to start healthy today and I'm so glad I picked this location. I ordered the Super Matcha smoothie along with the avocado toast and omg it's literally food heaven. The toast is loaded with avocado, lightly seasoned, and the eggs are cut so thin and perfect. I added some red pepper flakes cause I'm a hot girl lol but it was fine without it. Definitely recommend if you're feeling green!

Kale me crazy was ok. Their smoothies are very good, so I will go back just to get a smoothie. I order the salmon toast and it was ok. I really don't like guacamole so ended up scraping all of it off. I will go back and try their kale salad because that looks good.

Helathy breakfast/lunch options. Tuna wrap (is what I've got) was a bit spicy, but tasty. You can not go wrong with any of wraps they have on the menu. They are filled generously, I couldn't finish the second one. The service was super nice, she let me take my time to decide what I want and brought my order to the seat were I was waiting. I only take one star off because I am not a salty/spicy person, next time I may try a different wrap. Will come back for sure.

Hmmm... so many thoughts: - They don't require masks (customers in the store were not wearing masks), which isn't a show stopper for me but good to note for those who care - very expensive for a small portion. There are other juice places that are less or equal to kale me crazy's prices but with better/bigger portions - I have no idea what the cash registers lady voice sounded like. She said nothing. She didn't "take" my order, more like I just gave her my order - why did they take so long to make these? I got 3 smoothies, 2 of which were the same. But it took very long to make three smoothies, especially when there weren't anyone waiting before me. - parking is not awesome. Kale me crazy is a bit hidden in the back from the parking lot. Behind other stores. Overall, won't go back. Not worth the price or the taste. 3 Gryffindor points out of 10.

Extremely nasty, possibly racist service at Kale Me Crazy in Buckhead, Atlanta GA at 3167 Peachtree Rd. Took a walk over from the business I own nearby at about 2:30pm on 2/22/21. I have a debilitating back condition, and need a bit of walking exercise each day. When I got to Kale Me Crazy, the young lady working the counter was helping someone. So I sat down at the little bar they have next to the cash register to rest my aching back. The lady looked right at me, and I waved to acknowledge. As I waited, 3 or 4 more people entered and formed a line behind the person she was helping. When she was finished, she completely ignored me, and started helping the next person on line. So I said, "excuse me, I was waiting.", in a friendly voice. She says, in a nasty, snotty voice "The line is over here. We don't wait on people sitting at the bar". Leaving me no choice but to get up and walk out. Even the other people on line were amazed at her rudeness. Whoever is running this place should learn to teach their employees the slightest shred of customer service, and human decency, especially in these trying times. Kale Me Crazy will never see another dime of mine or my employees' business.

I went in around 7pm on a Monday. I ordered a smoothie and waited apx 5 minutes before someone even started to make the smoothie. Did I mention I was the only customer in the store at the time? I found this to be disrespectful to my time and requested a refund. The associate then told me "I don't know how to process refunds" and she proceeded to call her manager. Her manger told me the refund couldn't be processed until tomorrow. Is that even legal? I left with no product and no refund receipt. This business has been established too long for this mediocre service. Do better.

I consider myself a Kale Me Crazy disciple, and I can't tell you how many (Refresh) smoothies and slices of avocado toast I've speedily consumed. (Call me basic.) This location, like many others, delivers healthy, tasty goodness. Sure, they could do better with wiping down their counters, but aside from that the menu remains the same, and I didn't have any qualms with their service. (Very polite and fast.) If I lived nearby, 3% of my income would go to them.

Great service. A women came in being so rude and complaining about how she wanted to do a juice cleanse and was mad that all 18 juices she wanted weren't available asap. The man working the register was so patient with her and walked her through every juice he could make her and what the benefits of each were. He went above and beyond. Great job dealing with a difficult customer.

I ordered this because I was in the area and I was craving an açaí bowl. I paid extra for more banana, and Cacao nibs. I thought it was a bit silly to pay an extra 0.50 for banana. I felt even sillier when I saw how much came on it. Didn't see or taste the cacao. The to-go process might need to be revisited, because everyone stood aimlessly around, and basically the people who cut others or were pushy got their orders first.

It's good but not good enough to justify some of the prices. first, I got the chicken pesto wrap and it was good but 75% of the wrap was made up of lettuce. for $13, i was kinda expecting more toppings and chicken. especially, since there's no side included with that price. I basically paid for lettuce with barely any pesto. second, i got the recovery smoothie which i was told was the most popular. i'm not sure how this is the most popular smoothie when it was so chalky and unpleasant tasting. not really my vibe and for the price you might as well go to sweetgreen and get a bowl for a better value.

If you are in a hurry, DO NOT visit this location. The service was terrible! Usually, I am understanding and patient because I know the service industry has suffered a lot during the pandemic but this is ridiculous. When I arrived, there was no one in the restaurant. The employees were walking back and forth having a conversation. After waiting 10 minutes (I counted) I got tired and just asked if they would take my order. The lady said, just a minute and then proceeds to finish her conversation in the back. She never came back and I got tired of waiting and I left. I only gave them 2 stars because I like the franchise but I will likely never return to this location.

Definitely a place one must try in Buckhead . It is extremely popular, so be prepared to wait in line during lunch time.Service is always great. Staff is super helpful. It's such a great place to come to for breakfast, lunch and dinner. This location in particular is my favorite, always clean and has an outdoor seating. Make sure to checkout their large selection of Juices as well as their smoothies. still cant decide between the salmon and avocado toast, they are both super tasty! Trust!!

Ordered online to avoid wait times. Checked in at store, still waited 20min for a smoothie. Asked twice to check on order, was actually ready in fridge the entire time. Owner came in, grabbed his food and left without helping very busy cashier to attend to the multiple ppl waiting in line or waiting for orders. Bad look. Product is good though.

Why does this place get so many positive reviews? I was actually super stoked to come here based on word of mouth. I am HUGE on fitness and health (cue IG: thedailynoms). However, call me crazy for not being a fan of Kale Me Crazy. I've been here multiple times with hopes that I'd change my mind...it didn't work. Pros: -food seems fresh -taste is a hit or miss, but that's just my taste buds doing the talking...I like the poke bowl -location Cons: -portion is minimal for what you pay (I live down the street and I do not mind paying premium for food--but this is a to-go joint, c'mon) -most of the employees are just hanging around and don't seem to care for customer service -it takes forevvvvverrrrrr for your order to come out -depending on what you get, the food is basic and I could whip that up in seconds (I'm looking at your avocado toast) Pretty disappointed as I was looking forward to something convenient to venture to when I wanted something healthy to eat. As Ariana Grande would say, "Thank you, next."

Great service and fresh ingredients. This is a great spot to grab breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even a snack in between meals. There is a variety of tastes for all tastebuds.

We placed a rather large order with Kale Me Crazy Buckhead today and unfortunately our food was mislabeled leading to an office member (a vegetarian for dietary reasons) eating meat. When we called to remedy the situation - simply ask that the particular wrap that had been mislabeled be remade - we were met with hostility and a lack of care. Not only did the MANAGER argue with us about how to fix this issue but they hung up on the office member as well. Terrible customer service No care for actual customers or their dietary needs/allergies Asking for a lawsuit Before hanging up this "manager" agreed to refund the order that was mislabeled however this doesn't exactly fix the issue of half of someone's lunch being eaten and someone else becoming ill due to them ignoring our requests. If you want to eat there be prepared for rude workers and the wrong food. God forbid you have an allergy. Ps I will be emailing the owner as well...

I love Kale Me Crazy! I was in ATL for work and was so happy I found this place as I try to eat healthy while traveling. The first time I went the service was horrible, which is why I'm giving it four stars. It was in the evening and the girl taking my order kept walking away during the order, made my coworker's smoothie wrong and then didn't bring me my drink until I asked for it again 15mins later. Bad service that day. The açaí bowl was amazing, though. However, the second time I went the service was great. It was in the morning and the girl helping me was attentive and efficient. Had the breakfast wrap and a smoothie which were both pretty good. Wouldn't recommend putting the Vega protein in the smoothie unless you really need the extra protein; would've been better without it. Overall, love this place!

Ridiculously slow, overly expensive and not so friendly staff. Not a fan. I'll only come back here if it's a last resort and I'm starving.

Awesome avocado toast!! Their açaí bowls are good as well. Not as good as Juiceheads in Buckhead, but still good.

Come for the hype and great smoothies. I ordered the grounded smoothie which was delicious. I waited around 25min for my avocado toast. I lapped it up I'm bout 3min. 1hr post meal, I'm sitting at work with half empty belly irritated at myself for ordering a DIY toast for $6. Don't get the toast, hella basic. Parking is free but a bit of struggle during peak lunch hours.

I witnessed a woman, who appeared to be a customer yet claimed to be the partner of the Kale Me Crazy owner, accusingly approach another customer eating outside inquiring if he'd ordered from Kale Me Crazy. She stated that he needed to order from Kale Me Crazy to occupy the seat and that often this was not enforced, impacting profits, so she was inquiring. The gentleman had in fact ordered from Kale Me Crazy and handled her inquiry quite well. Her tone was accusatory and very inappropriate. Her efforts have caused more harm than good as they have lost me as customer based on my observation of her behavior. Unfortunate.

Great food and smoothies. But: the line is too long and it takes too long. Please create a separate line for pick-up orders. Those people are saving you time and money!

delicious food & healthy options! I got the quinoa salad and added chicken. great portion and very fresh.

I got a snack at KMC. I purchased the "Grounded" smoothie. Fast service, and my smoothie is delicious. Parking on the other hand is not so great. I had to circle around the lot twice. Good thing P'tree was not congested. Other than that, I'm always satisfied with KMC.

I workout 4/5 times a week and I started coming to this location because (honest truth true food kitchen isn't open early morning after my workout). However I FELL IN LOVE ! It's my go to for fast , clean , delicious food & or smoothies. I stop in atleast 3 mornings out of the week. This staff is always nothing less than amazing! Rachel however happens to be my favorite so knowledgeable about all the items on the menu and persuading me to switch it up and try new things. i highly recommend to try kale me crazy atleast a smoothie (my favorite grounded and refuel) or the chicken pesto wrap! . Expensive yet worth it! You are what you eat :)

Kale Me Crazy was as expected, not bad, but could have been better. Location: This location is terrible (not necessarily their fault); parking is hard to find and what's available is super tiny and difficult to maneuver between other drivers and parked cars. Experience: Good enough -- the staff was fine, but not overly friendly and not super apt to answer questions I had as a first time visitor. Food: I grabbed a Tropical Trippin' smoothie during my visit. I certainly appreciate the vast amount of dairy-free/vegan smoothie options and enjoyed my drink. The price ($8) for a smoothie was very high and would definitely keep me from visiting in the future... There are other similar options that have a lower price point available in the city. I grabbed a Kale Yeah juice to take with me for later and while also expensive, had good flavor and I enjoyed it, but I probably wouldn't order it again.

Lost my appetite due the rude and unprofessional customer service. We were so excited to try.

The absolute worst service. If I could not stars I would. This was merely a pick up, post workout. Completely ignored, like trash. Maybe it's a Buck-head thing but they were disgusting. Decided to take the high road.... and post a review. No need to pay for bad service. Seek your healthy eating elsewhere.

Like, where's the menu? My favorite thing to do is eat, but my second favorite thing to do is think about what I'm going to eat, so luckily I'd checked out the menu online and was ready to order my breakfast wrap when I arrived. I'm glad I did, because there was no menu to be found anywhere. (Wall? Chalkboard? Laminated at the counter?) Maybe everyone here is a "regular" and doesn't need to look at a menu, but I was surprised. Posting a big, colorful, friendly menu on the wall is not only a basic customer service move, but would be a huge improvement on their spartan space. I get that dine-in customers are maybe not their primary target, but this location looks like it's literally mid-remodel. I checked twice to make sure they were open AFTER walking in. When my $9.80 sandwich came out, it was pretty sad looking. I'll give them credit for generous greens, but the wrap looked like something my mom would've given me for lunch in school (and she didn't charge me $10 to throw some spinach in a tortilla). It tasted fine, maybe even good, but the price + portion was disappointing. Doubt I'll be back.

I order from Postmates and get kale me crazy pretty often, at least 2 or 3 times a month. The bowls are always so good! And somehow they are able to keep them cold transporting them to my job. Always supee fresh fruit!!

Love this spot, especially that it's tucked away in the cut. Walked here with my homegirl after hitting flywheel and it's the perfect option after getting a solid workout in. The tuna wrap could be a little heartier, I'm sure that's intentional. I hope places like this survive in the "A".

We love coming to this location, but unfortunately the customer service has changed and they are not taking sanitation precautions due to COVID. If you have a sign that says to please wear a mask in your front door, your staff should be wearing a mask as well, not below your chin. The front staff wasn't sanitizing their hands after giving food to each customer and would go and touch their phone. I understand some people don't care or mind, but not everyone is comfortable with staff being careless. This is the food industry and so far this is the worst I've seen. Please make sure your staff is taking this serious and tell them to be nicer to their customers. I won't be coming back to this location.

Kale Me Crazy is literally one of my favorite restaurants. I've literally been coming here for yearsssss and can honestly say it has never once disappointed me. I love the variety of options that's provided as well things being freshly made. With both of my grandmas having cancer during COVID they literally love when I pick them up shots, freshly pressed drinks as well as snacks etc. The staff is literally amazing and everything comes out at a timely manner. Love it here!!

Please spend the money and hire more positive staff who actually enjoy client engagement. Also, there should be stronger leadership during peak hours....it's 12.25p. I love KMC as a whole and I'll come back because I live and work in the area, but your people will make or break your business.

NO RECYCLING?? Goodness... do you not understand your customer?? So terribly short sighted. If I'm paying $25 for a sandwich and a drink, I expect you'll be recycling the plastic container you serve me my drink in. Come on, guys.. I know this is Atlanta... but we have a responsibility to leave the world a better place. Hopefully you rethink your 'Just Throw It Away'. Mentality. As for me, I'll find another place that recycles.

Whoever thinks this is good kale, clearly hasn't been to Tassili's Raw Reality restaurant! There is nothing special about the kale at Kale Me Crazy...heck it's not even good. Not to mention they didn't have the salad dressing I wanted. This visit was a waste of $12. If you really want to taste the best kale you've ever had, go to Tassili's in West Atlanta. There's a reason they have almost 5 stars on Yelp.
