Medium to High Cost.  

What to wear: as long as you're wearing clothes, you should be fine.  Beware if it's cold - there is indoor seating but this restaurant is best attended in the (sunny) daytime due to it's large open windows.  There is outdoor seating, too.

Is it Sara-Safe? It can be… 

Nature's Express is a great lunch spot, good for health nuts, organic-crazy folks, and vegetarian and vegans.  I love that they essentially have a guide for me to order a soy-free meal.    My favorite thing to order here is an almond sunflower burger patty and sweet potato fries.  Their air-baked sweet potato fries are nice (but not as good once they get cold).  One time I went and they were out of the burger patty I'd wanted.  I opted for a grilled cheese sandwich on rye, and was less than impressed because the fake cheese (made out of cashews, and actually very tasty) did not actually fill the sandwich.  I think I went home and made a real cheese sandwich later.  Even though they offer a soy-free menu, this is a soy-heavy place and not somewhere I go that often.

Meat-Eaters: They have a menu catered to possibly impress you.  (If I want meat, I would not go here.)

Do NOT eat here if you can't do cilantro.  It's in pretty much everything.
