I had the southwest salad and I was thoroughly impressed :) the cilantro lime dressing adds a but of refreshing sourness to the combination and it such a good combination of ingredient!

Great selection of healthy options – it’s hard not to eat healthy with this place around. The salad was really fresh and tasty, and the keto coffee was a nice bonus. Particularly like the self-ordering kiosk, and the food came out super fast!

The Detox Shake was just what I needed after 3 days at a trade show. The online ordering was super easy, staff was friendly, and the shake is delicious. Love all of the customization options too! Great healthy breakfast option if you’re in Chicago.

Tried PBK for the first time a couple of weeks ago (our office moved in across the street recently) and have been back multiple times since. We order group lunches from here as well. REALLY enjoying their bowls and wraps! The portions are "just right", the food has a lot of flavor and I really appreciate that it's as healthy as it's possible for fast food to be. I'm having fun trying things I've bever had before. The service is excellent as well. Everyone is friendly, fast and all of our orders have been accurate. Highly recommend.

I was very pleased with my most recent visit to the River North location. I got the Saigon Bar-rito, and it was so tasty and made with quality ingredients. The current general manager was very friendly and her employees served my food with great energy. It is so nice to have healthy options in the area for lunch.

I made a build your own salad and it was great. The ingredients tasted fresh and the dressing was tasty. I got a green smoothie on the side and it was the cherry on top.
