Located in Epps Bridge Centre, Clean Eatz is a chain restaurant that focuses on personal wellness and wants to make healthy eating simple and accessible.

Clean Eatz features a cafe menu, weekly meal prep plans and grab-and-go meals. The restaurant is open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays and until 3 p.m. on weekends.

The cafe menu includes wraps, burgers, flatbreads, smoothies and build-your-own bowls. I chose the “Hammerhead” wrap, which includes salmon, spinach and bacon with “Clean Eatz Green Goddess” sauce, wrapped in a garlic and herb tortilla. For my side, I chose sweet potato fries. My order cost just under $11, which I consider reasonable for a wrap and a side.

My food was ready within a few minutes. The tortilla was golden brown, giving it a crispy exterior. The “Clean Eatz Green Goddess” sauce was savory with a strong taste of herbs. The amount of sauce overpowered the taste of the salmon and was messy, but it gave the spinach a nice dressing. The bacon could have been crunchier, which would have elevated the texture of the inside of the wrap.

As an avid sweet potato lover, the fries were disappointing. Despite a good color on the outside, they lacked a desired crispiness and were soggy with grease.

Overall, the meal was filling. Although I am not rushing back to order from the cafe, I am intrigued by the convenience of grab-and-go meals and how they can alleviate the struggles of cooking.
