Toastique — Restaurant in Orange

Oh man. What a bummer—- after Restore Cold Pressed closed at Pinecrest I was excited to see a new option for açaí bowls was coming. I ordered online ($19 dollars for an açaí bowl with almond butter drizzle and protein powder, ouch!) and came into the store 20 min later to pick it up. The place was packed with no semblance of organization, although it recently opened and it was during lunch hour. When I went to the counter I was notified there was no açaí in the entire store, and that there was no ETA for the ingredient. I was asked to pick a different bowl, and I obliged. Ten minutes later I was handed a smoothie instead— when I mentioned I had ordered a bowl, they said “oh, you wanted a bowl?”, and proceeded to dump it into a bowl in front of me. The very nice staff (it’s true, they are friendly!), then took an additional ten minutes to add toppings before handing me a watery, melted, bowl that looks nothing like the amazing marketing pictures on their website. I’m so bummed but the experience was so rough I doubt I will return (especially for $19…. a smoothie at Erewhon is $20!). I rarely write reviews but my hope is that the ownership will take an opportunity to briefly close the store or carve out time to fix what isn’t working with processes, the staff, etc. before their reputations tanks the...

I gave the food a three our toast was not toasted at all. My husband had a tsp of crab and his bread wet. The salmon pastrami had little flavor and white sauce not a good choice, add some goat cheese. The smoothies were barely blended and lumpy. The son of the owner was kind and served me with a smile along with cashier and older lady. It’s a small place, so a bit congested. Overall I like the healthy choice so I gave them five. FYI the address say 200 but on the building it is 147? In my opinion upgrade sauces make sure that toast is crunchier, brush some authentic flavor olive oil on toast like ginger and lemon or garlic are great choices. I think avocado and salmon goes great together. A bit pricy so make sure consistency amount is there with toppings. You want people to bite into it and say ummmmmmm. Smoothies need just to be smoother. Thanks again for bringing healthy food into our community. Make salads to order plenty of arugula and romaine greener, tomato cucumber salad with good cheese and authentic olive oil flavored dressing ....

Food was very bland no flavor, a little salt or pepper could have been added. It’s very small no structure. The owners hardly know how to work the register. One of the items I ordered on ice was out of stock . They tried to make me change it instead of just refunding it then stated oh that’s out of stock as well. I said I would just take a refund (I get it they didn’t want to lose the $ but pressing me and trying make me try stuff was a bit annoying) . Once we get to the register to refund the husband/ owner came to the register and said can we give her something for free . The wife stated she’s not interested in nothing we have and said have a nice day . Actually u offered me to switch out the drink I paid for , for 2 items . One of the 2 was not have in stock and I did not want apple juice which was offered . I will not be back . I can better quality items from Panera bread for half the price . I also purchased 3 juices in the glass bottle from their grab and go 2 was ok and 1 tasted just like...
