It took me a while to order at Maru, because I didn't really see anything on the menu that looked good to me. Nearly all of the dishes have beef and/or pork in them, but I prefer chicken. I ended up getting the Mixed Vegetable Noodles with chicken. The vermicelli was good, but I wasn't too impressed with the chicken. It was all dark meat and half the pieces were kind of chewy. I've heard decent things about the other dishes, though, so I might be willing to go back and try something else.

My friends have been obsessed with Qdoba since high school, but this is the first time I've eaten there. I'd put it at the same level as Chipotle. It's nice because the salads come in a tortilla bowl, but they aren't very big. For $7 or so, I would have hoped for a bigger salad. They also don't sell whole wheat tortilla, which is a downside. The food was good, though, and the chicken was well-seasoned. The guacamole was good, but not the best I've had. I'd go back if it was convenient.

I love sandwiches, but I didn't like my sub from Izzy's. The sandwich was relatively tasteless, and the turkey was the kind of slimy lunch meat that comes in a package at the grocery store. The bread was decent, but nothing special and I was a bit disappointed that they didn't offer wheat bread. The prices are good, but I won't go back.
