Come here multiple times and always really impressed by the food. Calorie counts published prominently on menus and website. The chicken quesadilla and the BBQ chicken flatbread are my fav so far!
damionAugust 12, 2015The spicy chicken black bean bowl is surprisingly good. Add quinoa as a bonus. If you're dining in you'll get a device that lets the servers know where you're sitting by placing it on the table.
Stellaa DuhartNovember 17, 2015The veggie curry bowl was delicious. And the service wonderful: we were a large group, I messed the order up they took care of it and didn't charged extra. I would definitely go back there any time.- Madeline GullettAugust 18, 2014One of my fav places to eat. They have tons of vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and healthy options that everyone will love. They're vegan tacos are so good!
Nice healthy (and sometimes gluten free) food in a pleasant environment for a fast casual lunch. Some items are unexpectedly really spicy, so if you are sensitive to spicy food, ask before you order.
Susan ZochNovember 20, 2019I had the pumpkin bisque and it was great the cups that came with the guac were really good and the guac was fresh. It was nice to be able to get Ginger tea on a child day.
Laura NowakJune 14, 2016My first time here for breakfast and it was deeeelicious! Blueberry quinoa pancakes made my morning even better. Look forward to lunch soon. Download the app for points!
Nisha Kapadia BhesaniaDecember 18, 2014Art's Unfried Chicken was so good! Was a little worried about portion size from other reviews but it was more than enough, with a healthy pile of yummy butternut squash and Brussels Sprouts.
Lenora CravensAugust 5, 2015I had the bbq chicken flatbread which was enough for lunch. The chips and guacamole was very fresh as well. It's good to have wholesome food that's fast and healthy.
JasonApril 4, 2014I had Mahi Fish Tacos on my first visit. I went back the next day for lunch and had the Mushroom Flatbread and it great too. I highly recommend Lyfe Kitchen.
The roasted Brussels sprouts & butternut squash side dish is delicious. Also, if you're an afternoon coffee drinker, mix it up one day & try the ginger mint chia water instead.
Jason PastoreAugust 26, 2015Been here about 10 times and they never let me down. Love the Art's Unfried Chicken with Brussel Sprouts, but everything I've ever had was really good
This place is sneaky healthy. The unfried chicken was so tasty I couldn't believe it was good for me! So sneaky! Plus can't go wrong with brussels sprouts.
Gauri SharmaAugust 27, 2014Great breakfast spot- try the banana budino if you're looking for something light and sweet or try the avocado frittata for something more substantial
Lieke van der VorstSeptember 29, 2016Nice menu, got triggered by the Chipotle accros the street so i ordered the vegan tacos. Loved them
- Kavita BabaApril 11, 2015Incredible selection of food for the omnivore, herbivore or the gluten-free-vore. I loved the Thai red curry bowl with the chewy wheat berries
Great healthy food, the baked buffalo chicken strips are so awesome you won't realize they're only 260 calories! Salads are delish as well.
Michelle OrtizFebruary 9, 2014so good and fresh - Had the crispy gardein chicken sandwich - the sandwich was so flavorful and delicious. Definitely a winner!
smelf2April 22, 2016the vegan menu is quite extensive and I feel like I'll need another 4 or 5 visits to get an adequate hold on what's really going on.- Madeline GullettAugust 13, 2015They have amazing service too! The nicest people work there. And I love that they have a vegan and gluten free menu
Cory BangertJune 17, 2016Love the gluten free unfried chicken. The brussel sprouts/squash side that comes with it is fantastic
This place is so awesome and healthy! Caters to whatever dietary restriction you have. I'm Paleo and it's great! People are so nice!
Andy PerezFebruary 5, 2015Places feels and smells fresh - the tower of herbs growing in the restaurant probably helps.
Such yummy, healthy salads. Add the garlic tofu to any salad - so good!
Fantastic Mochas! Delicious organic coffee, cheap (2.99) and way less sweet that those sugar bombs at Starbucks.
JordanJuly 18, 2015Great healthy options for a quick meal. The staff is also extremely attentive and friendly.
Brace ClementJune 19, 2018Gluten-free cookies are sprinkles with magic and baked in a hug. Delicious!
Beril EsenJune 18, 2015Get the unfried chicken and the banana date smoothie and you'll be a happy camper.
- M. C.July 28, 2022This joke should be a healthy kitchen? You receive your tasteless food in a hot plastic box with plastic cutlery... I felt like I have a meal from an airplane... worst rice I’ve tried... never again..
Delicious, fast, healthy as affordable. Excellent customer service.
Flatbreads are better than they look. Try the margherita one!
LaineyDecember 11, 2013One big complaint: Asked waitress if something was gluten free. She starred at me for a moment and responded "I think?" Yea, not gunna' work for a celiac, lady. Otherwise good (but pricey) experience.
Kale smoothie is legit. Glad river north is stepping up their juice game.
Trever SweeneyMarch 27, 2014Brussel sprouts are an amazing side - decent choice of salads but staff is disorganized and service is slow even when the place is empty
Sean Maccarone-ReedOctober 6, 2014Had the crunchy quinoa bowl with chicken. Great tasting and perfect portion amount.

"On the pricey side for some things, but the quality and atmosphere are well worth it. Their pastas are perfectly cooked, even the ever-so-simple and satisfying spaghetti chitarra al cacio e pepe."
