      Love the owners, nicest people hands down always smiling. I love their salads, huge portions for the money. My fave salad is the chicken and bacon. The whole salads are enough to feed a few people or if you are really hungry it's perfect for one. They use romaine lettuce, fresh chicken, real bacon, tomato, red onion, 1 egg cut in half and sprinkle a seasoning on top that is very tasty.
      They have burgers, hot dogs, and other sandwiches, chips (no fries) and to save the best for last they have HUGE brownies that are so good I can't go and leave without one!!

      11/10 This place is a gem. If you are on the way back to Detroit from Chicago, this is a must stop. Easy off and on I-90. If you're nervous about it being in an office building... get over it. Best breakfast croissant i've ever had for the price of a fancy coffee in the city. The ladies behind the counter were nice and efficient.. you can tell they cared about the quality of food their putting out. It's more of a carry out vibe but there are some clean tables and chairs in the lobby to use. I'll be back to try a salad and a veggie burger my next trip. SUPPORT THESE LADIES!

      This is a little hole-in-the-wall food counter located on the ground floor of an office building. It was recommended to try the brownies and they didn't disappoint.

      Best jerk I've had in a while, and the spiciest. Workers took care of me because they saw I was hurting from the spice. 100% love this place

      Stopped in for lunch today and got the most delicious chicken greek salad. I got the full, which was MASSIVE, and my friend got a half. Everything on it was fresh, the cheese was perfect, and the seasoning on the chicken was spot on. Dressing came on the side, which I always appreciate. Super filling, super friendly folks, and a great gift to have healthy food options in the heart of Gary.
