Best Salad option downtown period. They are very quick in assembling it and there are a wide variety of options. The pick your own allows you to make a different salad every time or to create your own favorite. The portions are pretty generous, and the only downside is it is a little expensive but it is always very filling and surprisingly delicious.

Loved coming back today for breakfast - Super friendly staff with Felicia & Amy serving up fresh hot coffee with a smile, Daryll the Duke of delicious Omelette’s and James working the dining area. Great food and comfort here. They have ALL the ingredients for a great start to your day no doubt!! ——————— Ingredients is inside the Westin Hotel. It’s basically a “grab n go” with fresh Starbucks coffee drinks, bagels and rolls. They do have made to order omelette’s and panini’s. In the cold case they have ready made sandwiches, fresh fruit cups and variety yogurts. Daryll was so friendly and made me a really good 3 egg omelette with fresh spinach and mushrooms. Hash browns perfectly cooked and nicely toasted buttered wheat bread. It was a nice plate! Amy made my coffee and wished a great day. Really nice people like Amy & Darnell make a difference in starting your day!

Love this place! The food was yummy but most importantly, it was the staff and customer service that was outstanding! Darryl and Felicia served us with a smile! Darryl made me the best egg white panini and Felicia was the cherry on top! The restaurant was convenient to our hotel, The Marriott.
