I'd been meaning to try this place ever since I saw someone on Twitter post pics of their plates. My job relocated me to a property within walking distance, so I finally got around to it this week.
The location is pretty small. You can parallel park on the street, but there's also a lot next door. I think most of it probably beings to Chick-fil-a, but I'm sure everyone just parks there anyway.
So when you walk in, you're RIGHT at the counter. Like, smack dab. There's a couple of seats to wait for your food and a little space on the side where you can stand if you want to. I will say: DON'T come here if you're in a rush or just an overall impatient person. Also, don't come here if you claustrophobic. My break is only 30 minutes and I spent the entirety of it waiting for my food, but it was worth it.
The famous "everything" dishes are listed on the menu as "healthy choice", and yeah, it has a couple vegetables- but it's still everything BUT healthy. Broccoli, onions, mushroom, bell pepper, tomato (I opted out) smothered in 3 cheese with your choice of meat (chicken, shrimp, salmon, steak) all over a hefty helping of yellow rice. They also have a nice selection of sauces to top your food with. Spicy creole (BOMB!), teriyaki, chipotle just to name a few, and they give you two for the free.
The portion size is huge. Your tray will end up being around $10-$12 but it's definitely worth it because you can eat from it more than once, or share with someone if they not too greedy. I had half for lunch and then finished the rest off for dinner. I really enjoyed it. The flavors were bold (def hints of Italian seasoning) and the sauce was the perfect touch. It's something you realize "Well damn, WHY didn't I think of this!" first, cuz you could definitely make your own rendition at home.
My only real complaint is that I wish the vegetables were more...vegetable-y. I like my broccoli vibrant, and green and very broccoli- lookin! My vegetables were on life support. Any bits of life/color my vegetables had was sucked out on the grill and then promptly escorted to vegetable hell. Like they tasted good, but I wish they were lamest well-done.
Oh, also! had a sweet tea that was really good, but only if you're the the that likes lemon already in there. Otherwise, not for you.
