What People Are Saying
from Google"They just rolled out their new menu. I had the smoked turkey club with avocado mash on gluten free bread. It was a good portion that left me full. The house made pickles was slightly sweet with a dill bite and great crunch. I came here with a friend before and had to come back. It’s a great feeling to be helping out the autistic community while enjoying lunch. This place is a real hidden gem."
"I had the Panzanella Salad - heirloom tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, roasted squash, and I added chicken. Very well balanced vinaigrette and that touch of basil really brought it all together. I can’t wait to come back and try their house burger. Great job guys!"
"We had a great lunch and was so great to be served by the students / staff at Meristem. An amazing program that’s really changing people’s lives. The focus on allergies with great gluten and diary free options while having great tasting food, speaks to the care and quality of the kitchen / chef."
