Fresh2Order is delicious- love all the paninis and salads. It is on the pricier side for just a lunch-y place. Free 1 hour parking in the Spire deck.

Great Sandwiches, Great Coffee

The new F2O opened in my office building in Buckhead about a month ago. I tried grits for breakfast my first visit. They are made to order, so it did take a little while (every southerner knows it takes at LEAST 15 minutes to cook "real" grits). They were juuuust a little bit "gritty" but good nonetheless. For no extra charge, I added cheese and bacon. The portion was enough for two breakfasts. The coffee was strong and delicious! (I will call ahead and order grits next time so they have time to cook a little longer without me hanging around waiting.) My next visit was for lunch. I had the Turkey Club Panini which was small, but absolutely delicious. Turkey was tender and tasty and the veggies were all very fresh. And they could serve a larger bag of chips and drink for a lunch that cost almost $11, but that is my only complaint. The staff were all very, very nice (which is hard to find in restaurants these days) and the restaurant itself is modern and well decorated. I will definitely go again and try something new. (.... I am thinking happy hour at their wine bar after 5:00 one day.... )

• Pros: Extremely Friendly Service; Good Location; Fresh Food;
• Cons: Small Portions

all the good reviews couldn't get me to go back again

here's the deal. a new f2o just opened in my office building in buckhead. i tried the tomato mozzerela panini with lemonade and chips, and a grit cake.

the panini was good. it's hard to mess up tomato and mozzerela.

the potato chips, which referenced on the menu were house made kettle chips, were in fact the smallest (1 and 1/2 ounce) bag of lay's i've ever seen. there were literally 11 chips in the bag.

the lemonade was god awful. it wasn't sweet, it wasn't tangy, it was actually chalky tasting, and it tasted like someone snuck vegetables into it.

the grit cake was a clump of grits. i think it was supposed to be garlicy...? clump. of. grits.

$11 later, i would just as soon walk down to corner bakery, save myself $5, and get exactly what i'm paying for. or around the corner to big apple and pay for some real good zapp's potato chips.

in their defense, the lady behind the counter was very nice.

• Pros: ideally situated in my office building, looks like they spent a fortune on the inside.
• Cons: not for the value-oriented, lemonade will let you down.
