They have really fresh salads and produce. I enjoy the taco and cobb salads. The sandwiches are also of quality. The place can be busy, but the line moves fast, so dont let a line out the door scare you. This place has become a regular lunch spot for many downtown workers looking for a good/healthy lunch.

I came across Cafe 251 through google maps, just browsing for lunch. The location isn't quite as convenient as I hoped, but it's perfect for those who work in the same building. The soups are amazing! This week I tried the Chicken Velvet and Chicken con Queso, both amazing. 10/10 for the Chicken Salad Sandwich and Broccoli Salad. Delicious. The staff was incredibly friendly, as well as helpful! It was an overall welcoming vibe and I look forward to having lunch here more often. oh, P.S. - they have the good ice!

Great food and very large portions. I was a bit disappointed that it's a Cunningham restaurant but they don't accept the rewards system since it's co-owned. The place was clean and inviting, but instructions on how to order would have been helpful as a first timer.

This place is a regular for me for lunch. The staff there is amazing and makes you really feel at home. They're very personable and remember your face and your orders. Lots of options for food. The buffalo chicken quesadilla is my favorite, and their chicken velvet soup is awesome.
