Read moreJudging by the photos others have posted in other reviews, I know I was short changed. The food is delicious and the first person who helped me - wonderful. From there it all went a bit downhill. It was not a busy afternoon and there wasn't anyone immediately behind ne in the queue, yet the second person in the assembly line was not responsive to questions, and after I heard her order more aubergine from the kitchen (there was only 1 piece left on the counter), I asked for some as one of my sides. I also asked for a salad - I saw her dish it into the pot. I was then pushed through the queue at lightning speed (I can see where this is a good thing) and led to a somewhat aggressive person at the till who looked at me as if I were crazy to ask about the allergy info on the pastries (so I didn't get one). Before I knew it, I was being asked to pay and my dish was on the counter. So I paid and went back to work.
But wait.... where was my salad? And that lonely piece of old aubergine was sitting in the space where a side should be. The person working the side section only took the last small piece of aubergine and easily 2 tablespoons of sauce for my plate and didn't wait for the replenishment from the kitchen that I know was made while I was there. I saw it. The one little piece I had was very nice and it would have been great to get the full portion I had paid for. (and the salad).
If it were busy (and I know it can get very busy), I could see where they just wanted to get people through the process, but where's the customer service? Especially when it's not busy. I was hugely disappointed and feel a bit taken advantage of if i'm honest as a someone who's never been there before. With the exception of the first guy, everyone pretty much rolled their eyes if I asked a question. I guess making sure people with allergies are informed isn't a priority either.
I would've rated much lower if the food that was in my plate weren't delicious, but it was. In stark contrast, another assemble your own salad bowl is next door that has a much more complicated menu and the same customer volume and I have never had a similar experience there.
Reaching out to ask about being reimbursed for my salad proved very difficult too, hopefully, this review and...
Read moreToday I visited Farmer J for the first time on my friend’s recommendation and oh my god this was the best food I’ve had in recent time. First I was confused about all the options and got overwhelmed by the food choices but Piyush explained me very clearly and friendly. He explained about all the protein options as well as side options. And I got nuts allergy so he called his supervisor (Vivek) and he assisted me very carefully and explained me about cashew miso salad and also aware me about the open kitchen. I am vegetarian so not a lot of shops has vegetarian options but Farmer J has verity of vegetarian options and they’ve got one of the best tasting tofu I’ve ever had. Piyush suggested me tofu with grains and sides of broccoli and sweet potatoes and I got red pepper sauce as well to complement my plate. I must say the staff here is very friendly and welcoming. The place was really clean as well. All the team members were working together and assisting all the customers very nicely. I would recommend my this place to my...
