I got a salad bar with salmon and my party also got the Rice Krispie bar and a grilled cheese tomato soup combo. It is on par with other Jason’s Deli and I appreciate the options for dietary restrictions like gluten free bread, etc.

My toddler has quite a few allergies. When we alerted our server, he got the GM, Stacy. She came straight to me, introduced herself and explained that quite a few things had what he was allergic to in them (dairy, egg whites, soy, wheat/gluten, alpha-gal). She let me know what they had that would work. I asked if they had a white fish (my little one loves white fish). She said yes! She asked what they could cook it in for him. She gave it to the kitchen. They used gloves, clean pans & ensured there was no cross contamination for him! They bent over backwards to make sure he had something he could eat. It truly came from a place of concern and I will forever be grateful!

This Sprouts is my #1 market and has been for years. As someone who is a vegetarian, but also has a severe gluten allergy AND lactose intolerance; this store is like Heaven on Earth for me! It's easier to shop with their color coded labels of gluten free, organic, etc. I don't have to read every ingredient label searching for meat products, diary, or wheat gluten products. Also, they have more variety options for me. Plus, the fresh fruit & veggies are so much fresher! Or maybe by this point I'm already biased so they can do no wrong lol. Lastly, the bonus are the cashiers! They are sweet uniquely talkative. Meaning you can tell it seems genuine and better without the mandatory script other stores make them say unenthusiastically repetitively.

NOT FOR KIDS - These guys took burgers and chicken drumsticks off the kids menu. Hope your kid likes grilled cheese or mini pork sandwiches. Otherwise, you will spend 2-3 times as much for a burger or chicken for your kids. This also means there are now no gluten free options on the kids menu. Because of this, our little girl who eats next to nothing has to order a larger portion off the adult menu or she will get sick. Check the photo of the huge value we got out of spending twice as much for our other child’s burger. It’s the exact size we used to get for much less. I want to take a moment to focus specifically on the fact that Jim N Nicks’ kids menu no longer has a hamburger on it. Let that sink in. What kids menu doesn’t? The Mexican and Chinese restaurants we frequent have kids’ burgers. I want to wrap this up by saying that we just can’t go to Jim N Nicks with our children anymore. That, and I sure am glad I never went to this restaurant craving a burger. That thing was paper thin. Like somebody had smacked a slider with a frying pan. A nine dollar, flattened slider. Edit - While I appreciate Jim N' Nick's attempt to get me to just accept a free meal or two so I won't make a fuss about this not being a kid-friendly restaurant, really the only thing that will fix this is Jim N' Nick's fixing it's kids menu. Parents enjoy your food and like to spend time with their kids. Fix this. It's so simple and cheap (extra $$ for you) to take some chicken wings and throw them in a fry basket. No breading. No seasoning. Fry it until it floats and put it on a plate with some fruit and ranch dressing. You already have all of these ingredients. Kids love it. Parents love when kids don't complain about their food so everyone can have a good time. Don't leave parents hanging just because your chef isn't capable of thinking up these simple solutions when you realize you're loosing money on certain dishes (in Jim N' Nick's Bizarro(TM) accounting). I'll let you know an issue with your accounting that you may not have considered - if families can't come in to enjoy your restaurant, you will go out of business. Full stop. Do you really want to shed 15-20% of your business?

Person taking my order did great, order was on ticket correctly. But… I ordered a bowl with extra chicken and sauce Instead of wrap bc of gluten allergy, they brought out a wrap, I took it back up there for them to remake. They brought it back out with wontons (ticket specified no wontons bc of gluten), it did not have extra chicken or extra sauce (also in the ticket). I took it back up to them, by now they were busy and seemed annoyed and I specified extra chicken and sauce and no wonton. They brought it back out, no apologies this time and it didn’t have extra chicken. I decided just to keep it rather than going through the hassle again. Smoothie was great. That’s why they get 2 stars instead of 1

I went to Kabob-Licious for lunch and really enjoyed it. The food tastes great and is reasonably priced, the staff is courteous, and the restaurant is spotless. I spoke with the staff and they are taking an authentic approach to Pakistani food. As a result, some of the dishes were quite spicy. The restaurant will "tone down" the intensity for the less-adventurous American palate upon request. The entrees do not come with rice, but it can be ordered separately. Several gluten-free options for those that need it. I will definitely eat lunch here again soon.

From the cheerful cashiers to the knowledgeable employees at the deli counter, the level of service is exemplary. They go the extra mile to make sure you have a pleasant shopping experience. The variety of products at Publix is impressive. Whether I'm looking for a specific brand or a unique specialty item, I can usually find it here. The store caters to a wide range of dietary needs, from organic and gluten-free options to international cuisine ingredients. Publix's bakery and deli deserve a special mention.
