    I really enjoyed my overall dining experience. The food is healthy and I appreciated the wide range of options. My friend wanted a vegetarian option, but I had the chicken. The chicken was tasty and moist! The magarita that I had was on point. Even though the decor and the ambiance was great, I could not give it a good review if the food wasn't equally amazing. That was my second time visiting and each time the servers, hosts and waitstaff have all been attentive, respectful and pleasant. I will definitely return.

    I'm not a health food nut, but The Well was recommended so we went. Great meal well prepared and presented. Not just for veggies and clean food extremists. I will go back soon! Try it and become a convert!

    The food was great, but a little overpriced. Restaurants with the kind of dietary flexibility this place has shouldn't be financially inaccessible, and though I did enjoy it, I am having a hard time justifying some of the pricing. The bathroom was also in shambles; every single toilet handle was broken and exposed. Not the kind of thing a place at this price point should allow. Our server was such a joy, and we had a good time but I personally will probably not return.

    Hi Corinne, Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed our food and found our server delightful. We apologize for the inconvenience regarding the bathroom. We assure you we'll be sure to address this issue. We understand your concerns about pricing and will take them into consideration. We appreciate your patronage and hope to welcome you back soon. Best, The Well Management Team

    Egg white scramble is so yummy and satisfying. Try the cashew milk - made in house and perfect in a cappuccino.

    Great quality food! Felt great after eating it, which I can’t even say that after eating at pretty much any even high end place. Loved the option of getting single sides of everything on the menu, so you can really create your own dishes

    We love this place, because I can safely eat here as a celiac. We keep coming back, because of the food, drink and ambiance. Something that has lacked both visits here, has been the service. Sitting with empty drinks most of our meal, and not seeing your server/waitress for a long time. When you come to order more and truly experience the place, it is a sight let down.
    The WellResponded 4 days ago
    Hi Ashley, Thank you so much for your review! While we appreciate hearing about your positive experience with our food, drink, and atmosphere, we sincerely apologize that the service fell short during both of your visits and hope this doesn't discourage you from visiting us again in the future. If you're interested in connecting, we would love to hear some additional feedback! You can reach out here or to the email on our website. Kindly, The Well Team

    This place was amazing!!! The service was outstanding, our waiter took us on a tour of UT after and that would not have happened if we had not tried the well! Got the steak and eggs and they were outstanding along with all of the drinks we ordered. Would go back again!
