Our Guestbook
“ This place has been on my list for a while because I love healthy and I love salads so this place seemed right up my alley. Really cute from the outside, some seating outside and they have a back patio as well. Pretty simple inside, you order with them and they bring out your food. It's not Chipotle style where you see them scoop the ingredients in front of you. We built our own bowl and added peruvian chicken thigh (extra cost) and avocado (extra). They have really tasty dressings... we got lime cilantro but the lemon herb is also delicious. Also for all those that are dairy-free, they have a dairy-free caesar dressing which very really excited me to see as caesar salads are one of the things I miss sometimes since cutting out dairy. The salad was ready and came out really fast. I thought it was really good! Everything tasted fresh. Not sure it had a ton of protein included, I had to keep digging in order to find pieces, but overall I was happy with it and would definitely come back if I was craving a healthy salad in the area. Super friendly staff here too! ”
“ For the most part, this location only has outdoor seating. The servers are kind and the service is quick - my friend and I got our food pretty quickly. I got the Peruvian chicken salad and it was delicious. It was a well balanced salad with lots of flavor, a nice crunch, and packed with veggies. The portion was substantial so I wasn't hungry afterwards. I can't wait to go back! ”
“ My wife and I went to alfalfa for breakfast. They have some of the best breakfast burritos in the area! The service is top notch the gentleman helping us was super nice! The coffee is also great! They have a patio in the back where you can enjoy the food. Highly Recommend: Chorizo Breakfast Burrito Bacon Breakfast Burrito Highly recommend Alfalfa if you are craving a burrito.

“ I love the whole salad wrap concept. It is delicious. I don't know if it's worth $14 but I guess that is the price these days. I got the Dear Darla. The chicken was good and the yogurt dressing. I would get this again and try different ones. ”
