Decent
I've tried it a few times, some items I've enjoyed while some have been pretty bland. I liked the bison cheesesteak a lot (w/ the bbq sauce). Is it just me or is a 24 oz smoothie for $2.90 an excellent deal? I'll definitely be back for more of these

not so great
I always wanted to try this place but the reviews aren't so great but they were having a special buy 1 drink and get a free lunch. I figured this would be the best time to try it. the line was long as always for free food. the staff was friendly and super fast. i got the bison cheesteak wrap. okay so it was covered in oil! it was mostly tortilla. now the taste ---not good. i ate 2/3 and threw the rest away. it didn't really have a flavor. whatever it tastes like was not appealing. glad i didn't want waste my money.

great, healthful food
I live right near here but didn't try it until recently. I was hesitant because it is supposed to be healthy. I wish I had tried it sooner though, since I was actually really happy with the dishes I've tried. It seems like it is mostly a takeout place, but they do have seating available. So far I've eaten the bison wrap (kind of like a burrito) and the bison philly. Both were really good. It is a little more expensive than a normal sandwich, but not that much more. Plus, it is a hearty meal that I don't regret after I eat it. I will be back!

Trade offs - healthy so it ain't a Big Mac
I got a coupon in the mail - $5 off any purchase over $10. That's more or less half off! I was working from home around the corner, so when lunch time came around, coupon in hand I checked it out in search of a well priced, but more importantly healthy lunch. The place has had a recent facelift, and they now heavily advertise no menu item over 500 calories. This all sounded good to me. I ordered the kitchen wrap (ground turkey, peppers, tomatoes, onions, lettuce, low-fat mozzarella), and to drive my tab to over $10 I did the 2 sides for $3.99 and picked the home fries (baked with peppers and onion) and a garden salad which was fresh lettuce, cucumbers, and some lovely ripe cherry tomatoes. The sides would have been about $6 ordered independently (and they were small so that would have been a little excessive), so this seemed like a decent deal. So - the important part - how was the food? It was decent. I got hot sauce as a condiment (they offer a few options) which made the wrap tastier, but it still seemed a little bland. The salad and the potatoes were fine. The manager and staff were super friendly and the place was spotless. If I worked around here, I might very well come back often because it was reasonably tasty and absolutely healthy. A no brainer really. Would I come back for a craving? No. Would I come back to be healthy and for something decent? Sure. Check it out if you are healthy minded and have been interested. It is a little pricier than your deli or fast food options (just a little) but you are assured fresh low calorie food.

healthy should be good
I ordered delivery from here 3 times in the last month. I got the italian chicken wrap with sides, quesadilla wrap, chopped salad and tuna wrap with eggwhites. italian chicken wrap was decent, although last time i got it as an entree and it wasn't very good. the tuna with eggwhites were mushy with no vegetable flavors and i dont even know if they remembered the eggwhites. Sides are ok, lentil soup isnt that good and veggie chilli is passable. It is a little pricey and healthy food is not an excuse to lower quality, freshness and taste.

A necessary evil, I suppose
I'm grateful for the existence of these places, as they come in handy when you want to get something healthy and/or just to lose weight. Nothing in the store has more than 500 calories; in fact, most items come in between 300 and 450. Unfortunately, most of it is mediocre-tasting at best. Predictably, the items higher in fat taste better: the bison burger is better than the chicken burger, which is better than the ostrich burger, which is only slighly better than eating cardboard. The two soups -- the veggie chili and the lentil -- are both decent. The build-your-own-salad option is OK, but other places do the same thing, and with fresher produce. Value isn't great -- it's possible to spend over $20.00 in here and not even get 600 calories. But it certainly does take some of the thought out of dieting.

Not real health food
I feel this is a health food restaurant want to be. I don't think Energy Kitchen actually believes in health food. When you walk in all the major soft drinks are represented. The food is so so, not that fresh and not that good. I definitely feel bloated after my meal. Probably not much better than Subway.
