As a small business owner myself, I realize the importance of positive reviews. As a person with common sense, I also realize that there will be complaints and negative reviews. There are those who, if they were in the multitude fed by Jesus, would have complained that they would have preferred trout instead of tilapia, and really had hoped for rye bread because it would suit their digestive system better. Besides, with all that food, couldn't the disciples have passed out little bottles of water to wash it down? Now for the review . . . A sanitation rating of 100% and I challenge anyone posting a review lower than four stars to find another perfect score in Eden. The grilled chicken salad was served with fresh, cold lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese, homemade croutons and steaming hot chunks of marinated chicken. Service is always friendly and Speedy makes everyone feel like a regular customer, even on the first visit. On our third visit, she commented, "It's your third time here." Yes, she pays attention.

It was my go to then ... and just having started going back this past year, it is still on my list of lunch favorites. My friends that I meet up with all rave about the other menu items, but I'm a creature of habit and still order the Taco Salad. Service is prompt. Not being a 'local' anymore, friendliness is what you'd expect. Order,...

It was almost 9 dollars for this small amount of Teriyaki chicken, rolls, this small amount of onion rings & hush puppies. I wish more chicken came with this. I'm not a very big person, and usually 9 dollars worth of food fills me up, this did not fill me up at all. That's my only complaint. This is the first thing I have ordered from here. I definitely won't get Teriyaki chicken again, unless they up...
