Fresh To Order

This will be a very brief review since I wasn’t even able to get past the door. I went by this location yesterday for some lunch around 1:30 in the afternoon. They were inexplicably closed. I checked the hours several times, thinking I had made a mistake. Nope. 11 AM — 9 PM Monday through Sunday written right on the door. At least 3 other potential patrons showed up and were equally surprised.
There was no sign, note, or any indication of reason. Even though I didn’t have to drive that far, I still had to sit in Sandy Springs traffic to get there and then further delay lunch when I had to make alternative plans.
This qualifies as my #1 restaurant pet peeve. Do not close if your hours say open unless there is an emergency or — at least — an explanation.
I’m never darkening their door again.

Subpar compared to the Chattanooga location. They didn’t have mushrooms to put in my salad and ran out of the wild mushroom soup. They also aren’t exactly friendly and cooperative in substituting items on my order. I won’t be returning.

This was my first experience with F2O and I’ll definitely be coming back.
I ordered a tomato/​basil/​mozzarella panini and a chicken tortilla soup. The sandwich was alright; it could have been warmer. The soup was absolutely amazing! It wasn’t as spicy as other recipes I’ve tried, but it had a lot of flavor it it and I could have easily gone back for seconds… and thirds.
My only suggestion is that they should put the menus where people can find them.

I have been coming here for at least 8 years they have never disappointed and if I have ever had any minor issues with my order they correct it with no problem and give something on the house ! They are really a pleasant crowd and I know most of them by name. Mark is the GM and he runs a great establishment they also Cook a lot better than all the other ones I been to thus far !
There is nothing I have tasted that I did not like the salmon, ribs, steak, chicken tender panini, creamy chicken soup, and tomato soup. The club salad is my #1 fav. And the croissants are carbs but they are LIFE!
I can literally call on the phone and they know my order!
I have turned a lot of family, friends, associates and dates on to this place and they all become obsessed !
The

Stopped by this casual spot for lunch on a Girls Day Out and we loved our food !
The large menu is creative with lots of add-​ons and mixing and matching. I got the Chicken Tortilla Soup and Asian Chicken Crunch Panini with Almond Rosemary Crusted Chicken, Ginger Apricot Coleslaw and Avocado Aioli. Both were delicious.
My friend got the Caesar Salad and the Smokey Southwest Chicken Panini with Fire Grilled Chicken, Cheese, Lettuce and Southwest Ranch Dressing. They were really good, too!
The portions are generous for the price. They offer home made flavored waters on tap which is a great touch. The staff was super nice and the place was nice and clean.
I’ll definetely be back for lunch but I’ll also stop by and get dinner to-​go after work. Yum.

I’m really not a fan of this place, but it could’ve just been the location. I feel like with a name Fresh To Order you should really have some juicy awesome food. Both my curry salmon and the chicken skewers were overcooked… dry, which is pretty bad considering the skewers are suppose to be the most popular and the salmon was drenched in sauce. I was on the brink of starving, so I ate it but I wouldn’t go back to that location in the future. I will say their lemonade was amazing. I normally don’t waste calories on beverages, but MAN it was worth it… twice lol. I would totally walk in and purchase one of those to-​go.

Wow! I was completely blown away! This is definitely a top notch establishment. Every item we ordered was delicious and made with the freshest ingredients I think I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The variety of dishes is sure to please every palette.
My husband’s calamari was perfect, light and crispy, well seasoned and included fried lemon slices which was a heavenly complement to the whole dish. My grilled chicken BLT panini was a wonderful blend of fresh meat and vegetables, on a light and chewy focaccia with a yummy drizzle of bacon aioli. The roasted corn nut salad was my favorite of all the dishes we tried and I plan on taking a bowl home with me on the next visit. Skip the soft drinks and enjoy the wonderful lemonade and waters.
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, the manager was attentive and even brought us a sampling of their delicious croissants.
This is a quick order at the counter and they bring it to your table restaurant, but it has nice seating and lighting that make it a fun date night or a quick business lunch.

I used to go to the F2O in Johns creek while growing up and loved that location. I don’t know if the menu option changed across all F2O’s or it’s just this particular location, but they didn’t have the salad that I grew to love. I ended up getting a shrimp salad and thought the shrimp was absolutely disgusting. It was in some weird curry sweet sauce and did not go with the salad.
Service is quick and lines weren’t too long.

F2O was a complete surprise. I wasn’t expecting much since in general I’m not a fan of chains. The food was very good, the portions huge and the prices moderate. Service? Meh.
So I took Nonna for our Saturday outing. The first few minutes were inauspicious. The place is staffed by very young people who have memorized the corporate-​approved lines to every question. They couldn’t quite figure out that we needed someone to say that you order at the cashier and they bring the food to the table.
And that table, BTW, was sticky,
But once I understood and we ordered, the food was surprisingly good. Nonna had chicken skewers that were very good. Very thin pieces of chicken breaded with a bit of panko and herbs and then grilled. I had the salmon on a greens. The sides were more interesting that I expected. The orders (¾ size) were still more than we could eat.
The dessert — chocolate silk ice box pie was good once I scraped off the whipped cream and the way too sweet sauce (was it raspberry?).
The concept is interesting: the menu has a handful of sandwiches, wraps, salads and entrees, but each is made surprisingly well. The sides are interesting. The sauces actually enhance the flavor rather than covering it up. F2O is a long way from the standard «family restaurant» chain. F2O received Nonna’s highest compliment: «Let’s put this place on the list to come back to.»

As a pescetarian I’ve eaten a LOT of veggie burgers & I have grown a preference to black bean burgers over the other beef patty substitutes.
That said, this place has the best black bean burger/​veggie burger I’ve ever had.
It’s about $ 8 & truly filling. A lot of calories but it’s protein-​filled. You can also add a side for $ 2 more & may I suggest the grilled veggies? It’s all delicious, hence I have made this my weekly spot.
There’s also an app for frequent visitors such as myself! $ 3 off your first purchase. On top of that, there’s also the F2O punch card that promises $ 5 off when filled up (and filled up it will be).
The employees go a little out of their way to make sure everything is to your liking, so 5 stars for this chain restaurant. Bravo.

Love, love, love this place after a quick work out! Best salads and lots to choose from! Quick service so you are in and out!

One of the worst F2O experiences I’ve ever had. Normally, I’m excited to go to an establishment serving fresh fare at a casual, quick, sit down restaurant, but this was anything but.
First, the ordering took forever. It was 10 minutes before we even got to sit down – they had one register open with another half open – the guy was taking orders one minute and running around greeting people the next.
When we finally sat down after getting our drinks, the food then took an excruciatingly long time to arrive. Fast casual? I think not. My friend’s bison burger was in some sort of pita wrap — WTF? It would’ve been nice to have been told that her burger would come looking like a flatbread with a patty on it. Five minutes later, my food came. I got the steak entrée, which came dripping in sauce and dressing. I got a another plate so I could wipe off some of the sauce and actually taste my steak.
The servers at the restaurant were awkwardly hovering around us the entire time too. And when we finally needed them to clear our plates, they asked if we needed a refill and then walked away.
All in all, a terrible experience and not worth the money for the quality of food we had. Not going back to this location again.

I walk into this restaurant that is literally right around the corner and I have never been until today! It is very nice inside and when you walk in there is someone saying «hello welcome» or something along those lines. It was not lo g until someone started to take my to go order. The cashier was very polite and seems to be very social with the customers. That is something I look for when I go somewhere for the first time. The prices are o. The high side or the scale but the food is fresh and tastes wonderful. I will be back here for many more check ins!

LOVE this place! Only place I know that I can get tuna without having to get dressed up & fairly quickly! I also love that their nutrition facts are available online-​helps me calculate my Weight Watcher points!

«Fresh» only partially describes the what you get from this establishment. «Quality Deliciousness» would be my word choices for the remainder. «Fresh Quality Deliciousness» has indeed been what I’ve received in return for all of the hard earned money I’ve handed over to Fresh To Order every time I’ve visited.
Superb food experiences have been had with everything from their Grilled Veggies, Chicken Tenderloins, House Turkey Club Panini, Creamy Chicken Vegetable Soup and my absolute favorite Tomato Bisque Soup. There’s without a doubt no tomatoe/​tomato debate here. Only totally good /​totally gone.
Fresh To Order has hit a home run each time at bat with me!

OMG. Why did it take me so long to get here? I had the soup and salad combo and it was plentiful. As soon as it came to the table I asked for a to-​go box. I just knew I wouldn’t be able to handle all of it. I tried my best to eat each item in proportion but it was hard. The tortilla soup was good and flavorful which I finished first and the Asian salad had just enough kick to it. Who knew I’d love ginger in my salad? I will definitely try my hand at making this at home.
I loved the set up as well. I think they sell beer or wine oh heck I don’t know there was some kind of libations being served but who knows it was during lunch on a Monday and my Boss hates when we return to work extra happy and buzzed. Ha!
No worries I will definitely be back to try other dishes and a sip of wine. I really hope to be brave enough to get a full plate. Seems a shame not to take advantage of so much goodness.

Just like any of their stores, the food there is great and obviously fresh. However, there were so many people at lunchtime, while a a majority of the restaurants in the same shopping plaza are empty. Luckily, I got there early so I could find a place to sit but there were lots who were not as lucky.
The food was definitely fresh I have the panini and their tomato bisque is always perfect. There hope things are always great but when the crowd got going the just a little and they were plenty of sticky hands!

Changed to 3 stars because of EXCELLENT follow-​up customer service post-​initial review.
Salmon panini was just too greasy!!:(had to use at least 4 – 5 napkins to sop it all up.
Fish itself no flavor: how is that poss?! No seasoning
Outfitted with corn, avocado, etc., which, in theory,
sounded great but wasn’t. Too bad.
Mint vanilla anise lemonade was the most redeeming part of meal.
PS Customer service was so on top of things and organized, was sent an electronic gift card as an apology for aforementioned inedible. Game to try a salad next or something! Impressed me mucho.

A friend suggested we eat here about a week ago when we wanted a quick lunch. She’d mentioned it before but I kept forgetting about them (gotta work on my Bookmarks!) so she was pretty excited to be there when I tried them for the first time.
It was nice and bright when we walked during the late afternoon thanks to all the windows. It’s a good space, and everyone was really friendly and helpful with my questions. When you walk in you place your order and then put a number on the table for them to find you. Since we weren’t incredibly hungry but hungry enough for a bite, we decided to split a salad and a bean burger. We chose the fig salad, which had baby greens, raisins, peppedews, candied walnuts, blue cheese crumbles and figs. Everyone says this all the time but my mouth is literally watering at the memory of this salad — and it was a big portion too! Even with splitting it we didn’t finish it. It had lots of figs, the greens were fresh and crispy, and I loved the peppedews. Not sure exactly what they are but they were pickled, peppery and delish.
And this is where we take a moment of silence, folks…
… for a damn good black bean burger that barely saw the sunshine after it came into my grip.
This was the best black bean burger I’ve ever had. Really and truly. It came on a grilled wheat flat bread with the burger, which had black beans, rice, avocado, lettuce, tomatoes, some kind of corn relish, pickled jalapenos and a horseradish honey mustard. My friend and I couldn’t get over how good it was — we were silently chewing and staring at each other with wide IS THIS REAL eyes… Yeah, it was sexy.
They have a whole variety of teas to choose from — some strawberry mojito one and a lemonade with vanilla, which I got and loved. It was the perfect complement to my meal, especially because when I checked into Unilocal while there I got my drink for free!
They have a long list of paninis and sandwiches with options like steak to salmon, pork, veggie, turkey… They also have «Real Plates» which are more of actual meals with sides like pork loin, grilled salmon, coconut curry chicken, etc. AND WINE. AND BEER.
It was an easy, quick, reasonably priced experience for some really good food — perfect for a quick lunch when you don’t really want a restaurant. Set me up with a bed and clean bathroom and I could probably live here.

I love Fresh to Order. Before coming here, I’ve only eaten at the Cumberland location since my work place always cater from them. Because of that reason, I became a fan and have been eating there since then.
I decided to go to the Sandy Springs location to meet up with a coworker from out of town.
It’s located right off Roswell Road near Fanoos & Punchline. I love the stylish modern look since I’ve only been to the Cumberland location and it’s located inside the mall. Inside it looks like a cool café. The staff was sweet.
My fave dish is the veggie panini. It’s so flavorful and healthy. Side dish is either chips or apples. I usually upgrade and pay more for a fruit salad since I prefer melons in my fruits. I’ve had the meat versions too but the veggie one is so freaking good. If I could eat it every day along with Indian food, I’ll be a vegetarian.
They have the best chocolate chip cookies ever. Seriously.
