Corelife Eatery

I ordered the Korean pulled pork taco, the steak fajita taco, a side of GF mac and cheese, and the regular size greek chicken and quinoa bowl. At first the tacos looked a little smaller than I would have liked but they were actually very filling and not skimpy on the meat. The mac and cheese is really creamy and had a charred crust on top like it was oven baked. The greek chicken and quinoa bowl was really good and came with this really yummy dressing. I thought overall the food was priced well, the total came to around $20.

Disappointing. I ordered a large spicy ginger steak and rice noodle bowl and a power plate. The servings were extremely small. Everything on the power plate was cold and bland. The power plate had a tablespoon (like an actual tablespoon that you would use for measuring when baking/cooking) of corn (asked for more but was told that would be an additional charge), a few half-moons of cucumber, a one-ounce container of mandarin oranges, a quarter cup of cooked rice, and at most 2 ounces of chicken. The large spicy ginger steak noodle and rice noodle bowl did not look anything like the pictures they show online. It was mainly broth with few vegetables, a couple of ounces of rice noodles, and possibly 3 ounces of steak. The concept of their dishes is appealing, but the execution is atrocious. In addition, the service is extremely slow. You may want to consider saving your time and money and grabbing a bite to eat somewhere else.

I’ve been eating here for years, it’s a similar atmosphere to chipotle in the sense of you go down a line and pick your bases/toppings and then check out at the end - but it’s way better! I love their BBQ chicken bowls as well as their GF Mac & Cheese. I have stomach issues and normally places will bother me for a few days after eating, but with core life’s ingredients I never have issues.
