"I asked for toppings on the side for my Pitaya bowl and they neatly packed everything in Togo containers so that I could assemble at home. Everything was fresh and delicious! The Basil Dressing for the Salad is my favorite, Love Swamis!"
"Instead of MMYO Omelette. I got something else. It had all the ingredients that I had not asked for and none that I had requested or are part of MMYO. The omelette did not look as if it was made of 3 eggs and the taste was overall very bland. Ver poor experience"

"This place is truly AWESOME & Amazeballs!!!! Best Filet in town. Not cheap - but WORTH IT by far. Always tender and juicy. Potatoes Rock!
The worst thing i can say is that last time there were only two vegetable spears - and I didn't really care. I was a vegetarian for over 15 years, and I don't eat meat on a daily basis - sometimes not even weekly - AND - the beef here feels like it is Good For You! Great Menu!!!!! GREAT kitchen staff!!!! Thanks for your expertise!!!!"
"The eggroll sampler was not great tbh. For $19.99, it was small amount of food -- one small fried eggroll of each flavor - Southwest chicken, hamburger, avocado and chicken taquito . They were soggy and barely warm. In the restaurant , the Southwest ones are a favorite of ours. Will not ever order them for takeout again. The Thai salad wasn't ready when I arrived so I think the eggrolls must have sat for extra time and that didn't help. Was only 10 minutes from pick up to eating and
The temps weren't hot. The Thai chicken salad was tasty, but they say it will have "satay chicken" on it and there was a very small amount of very charred chicken, almost burnt. Not juicy like normal satay is and certainly not even 1/2 of a satay chicken order would normally include. Again, for the price, ($23) there was not enough protein. Maybe add some edamame if going to chintz on the chicken. The cheesecake was very good, though so that was nice :)"
