Crisp

I liked it, but I wanted to love it.

Pros:
Nice sized restaurant
Delicious menu of freshly prepared lunch foods
Quickly made meals
Decent pricing
Pleasant music that wasn’t too quiet or too loud
Not stingy with napkins, which is important when eating fries and wraps.

Cons:
They didn’t have a clean fork when they served me, so I had to wait a couple minutes for a server to bring me one, at which point I was brought a second knife instead.

I asked for no tomato and got a wrap with plenty of tomatoes. It was still edible, but it would’ve been better without and I did say it clearly when I ordered (next time I’ll be sure to double check the receipt).

Diners are given complimentary cupcakes with their meals, which is great, but mine didn’t come with one. They were good about it when I mentioned the lack, but if I hadn’t been told about the cupcakes a day before by a relative and seen other customers with theirs I would’ve gone without, which would’ve been annoying since the cost of the cupcake is built into the cost of the food ordered.

While none of the issues were dealbreakers (overall a good experience), I still had to hover by the counter multiple times like an awkward gargoyle to get silverware, cupcake, etc, which sort of brought down the mood. They had a fairly steady stream of people for lunch, but it wasn’t *that* crowded that multiple mistakes would be understandable.

Summary:
Absolutely eat there if you’re in Newton Plaza. The food’s good and quick if you’re in a rush. I’d certainly go back (their fries are AWESOME). Just remember to ask about the complimentary cupcake.

Have been driving Crisp a few finally went for dinner tonight. Food was great, service was great, good place to sit and enjoy a meal. Will definitely be going back.

Really fresh and yummy. If you eat in the salads are huge. Like the size of a mixing bowl. Crazy good. Love their jalapeno ranch dressing. Also their fries are really good.

The salad shop has very few vegetarian options. Instead they ask you to substitute tofu or avocado in their full menu of non-veg concoctions. Sorry, but that is not the same thing as having the Chef create a specialty or menu item. And making a Shrimp PoBoy into a lettuce-heavy wrap is not OK by anyone from the region of the country that created the namesake sandwich. Total came to $26 for the two wraps
