Delicious salads. Nice for something different than typical “fast food”. The only drawback is that the order line moves quickly and if you’re not familiar with what’s available or what the choices are, the employees aren’t very patient.

First time at a corelife and I was pleasantly surprised! We had been told that it was a salad place and having 2 teenagers that means a big no. Boy was that description wrong, or at least very misleading! Yes they have salads but they also have so much more! Wraps and tacos and a helpful staff to answer crazy questions! And their juices.... OMG their juices! Crazy good! Place was fairly clean except for the flooring in front of the juice dispensers which was to be expected and they were trying to keep up. Restrooms were clean and didn't smell. We will return!

I definitely recommend everyone to never come to this place. I found a Worm in my plate, and all shift supervisor was responding to me was : I am sorry but we don’t wash the vegetables here, they come as pre-washed!!!! And all they did for me was refund!!!! I even have some pictures of that

I wanted to love this place because of the variety, how nice the place looks, and how nice the staff was. Food was disgusting though. The portion of chicken on my salad was SIX TINY CUBES, not even a whole strip. Owners are clearly on a penny pinching budget if they're watching portion control this closely. Salad was tossed in so much dressing it was soupy. The "Korean BBQ" wrap was soaked with sesame that overpowered every other flavor. The tortillas fell apart immediately from being so wet, and when we took the wrap out of the tortilla a literal puddle of oil dripped out onto the foil. Was a mess to eat and we paid like $30 just to throw everything out. I'd go back for the smoothie because that was good but I would rather eat a jean jacket than more food from here.

I really want to like this place and I think it has great potential. However I think the quality controls need to be checked. I had a vegan bowl and my son had a vegan bowl of soup. My son enjoyed his so all good there but in my bowl the quinoa was burnt and it had a taste that just felt off. (Maybe not soaked and rinsed or maybe old and a bit smelly)I did inform the restaurant and they said they would get me a new side of quinoa which would have been okay but then they forgot. So I asked about it again then I finally got it which is fine however it did kind of take away from the experience.Finally the new bowl was only the quinoa but was also a bit crunchy/crispy which tells me there's a quality control issue with making the quinoa...I'll probably try this place one more time perhaps at a different location

First off i never leave reviews but every time I go to this restaurant the staff is SO friendly! I love the vibe here :) I found this restaurant from a coupon in the mail!!! food is just incredible they have great prices and this is now me and my family’s GO TO SPOT ! I get my toddler the power bowl and I feel good about giving my child the food because it’s healthy and has what he needs to grow !

A sad, slow deterioration of quality of food and quality of service. The staff looks to be sleeping or on drugs. 6 employees huddled by the grill when I entered, none bothering to look up or come to greet the customers. The counter of ingredients was disgusting. Everything had mixed together and nothing was wiped clean. Food wells were empty. Keep in mind, this was at 4:15 on a weekday. Must have been when all 6 employees take their 90 minute break at the same time. Sadly this is not an isolated experience. Each time I visit, there's something new that leaves me wondering 'what happened to this place?', and feeling like the visit will likely be my last.

The customer service here is obnoxiously poor. I ordered at 1:30, arrived at 1:40, called promptly, to which I was informed by Angelo it would be out right away. Fast forward to 2:10, no one came out. I go in, which was extremely inconvenient for me because I didn't want to go in because I have a young child with me, and I was told off by an older, heavy-set woman with short hair. She told me I was wrong about how long I had been waiting, claiming that my order came in only 20 minutes ago, when in reality, it was a whopping 40 minutes that I had really been waiting. The order was said to be completed at 1:50, and yet, it was being made when I walked into the building, long after 1;50 had passed.It's ridiculous how entitled these workers think they are. I am deliberately polite and extremely patient, but this is just wild. If I had been told there was a wait, I wouldn't be writing this review. Instead, they lied to me about the wait time and then were combative when I politely asked what was going on. Never once was I short or rude with any of these workers, and still, I was met with hostility and aggression. This is not the first time I have received disturbing customer service here. This is the last time I will ever go to this location.

The coolest way to enjoy something healthy. My favorite is the Chicken Cobb salad.

Fast as well as as quality service. The restuarant was clean and there was plenty of seating. The food was good and reasonably priced. Expect to pay $9-10 per person.
