" I used Uber Eats for my first experience with Recess, and I was blown away! The Don Diego bowl was delicious and packed with a variety of toppings that felt fresh and carefully selected. Despite being takeout, everything retained its flavor beautifully. I'm looking forward to visiting the restaurant in person to get the full experience! I highly recommend trying their bowls if you're looking for something healthy and flavorful. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Recess. The food itself was quite good—fresh and healthy options abound. However, I felt the portion sizes weren't consistent with what I expected given the price. On one visit, my bowl was substantial, but another time it felt a bit skimpy. Nevertheless, the staff was friendly, and I appreciate their efforts to accommodate my dietary restrictions. I plan on returning to see if the portion sizes improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" Recess has easily become my favorite place to grab a healthy meal in Buckhead. I can't say enough about how fresh the ingredients are. The variety of bowls is impressive, and I love how they allow customization. I had the Chicken La Vega, and it was bursting with vibrant flavors. It's also a great spot for someone on a restrictive diet—lots of options! The atmosphere is lively and inviting, making it a perfect spot for any occasion. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely dinner with friends at Recess! The atmosphere was bright and cheerful, a perfect backdrop for a healthy dining experience. I ordered the Notorious PIG and it did not disappoint! The combination of flavors was simply incredible, and portion sizes were generous. Keisha provided top-notch service, making our experience even better. Can't wait to come back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Recess was generally positive. The food was well-prepared and satisfying, but I felt the atmosphere could be more organized during busy hours as it seemed a bit chaotic. Still, the flavors made up for it! I enjoyed the La Vega bowl and was impressed by the prompt service. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a healthy bite. " (*Curated Review*)

" Recess is definitely worth the hype! The food was fresh, creative, and satisfying. I went on a busy Saturday and, surprisingly, the service was quick and efficient. I enjoyed the La Vega bowl, and the portions were more than enough for my appetite. The ambiance was lively and welcoming. I can't wait to try more items on their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I were looking for a healthy alternative to our usual dinner spots, so we tried Recess. The food was refreshing and flavorful! I loved the coconut rice with my bowl; it was an unexpected twist! The service was excellent, and Keisha was very attentive. She even helped us with the gluten-free options, which was appreciated. Overall a fantastic dining experience, we'll surely return. " (*Curated Review*)
