text: Welcome Zoes Kitchen to the Midtown area My husband and I went to experience this new location during their preopening for lunch Granted this review may be slightly biased since it was complimentary to celebrate the openingnnFriendliness was consistent throughout our entire experience When we arrived we were greeted by eager staff at the doorway In addition when we placed our order we received friendly help As we were eating various staff would stop by to see if we needed anything They also explained how Zoes started in Alabama by a Greek woman to support her family since then it expanded and was sold to become this chainnnThe food was delicious I ordered the Grilled Veggie Stack and my husband ordered the Hummus Salad Plate The portions were of good size and I could not finish it all Their limeade was fresh and tart Delicious One of the qualities I like is that they make everything fresh every day They also offer side dishes without mayo for those that are allergic to dairy or are vegan Their hand made chocolate cake was really sweet and tasty They make their own pita chips and hummusthey are liberal with the salt so be warnednnThe atmosphere is clean bright and open It is also quite casual which I was not expecting It teeters on being considered fast food because you order like a fast food place but the quality of the food is like you would expect at a restaurant It is conveniently located near Best Buy Trader Joes and Target MidtownnnI am a fan and will be back Hopefully they stay consistent in their friendliness and quality and not just for openings
