Farro

Do not eat here. In my YEARS of working downtown, I have never encountered employees at any establishment that have this much AUDACITY. I've never been here before and I got there at peak lunch time but I guess the line wasn't long because it started right at the point where you need to give your order but I have never dined there not my out of town colleague that was with me. We were both looking at the menu when the start of the assembly line employee rolled her eyes at me to which I stated "sorry I've never been here before." We both just quickly ordered the first thing on the menu, the Mediterranean bowl and added chicken. The line moves really fast when the employees don't care to ask you anything and just build the chosen item but we get to the cashier to pay and after the tip screen it went straight to "your receipt has been emailed" without asking my colleague for their email and the cashier just immediately began ringing up the person behind us. The receipt was needed for an expense report so I asked "can we get the printed receipt?" Begrudgingly, the cashier said "you should have asked me for that a long time ago" in the most rude tone I have ever heard. If I were alone, I would have responded to this snarky comment, but I let it go. I've seen the other side of their little iPad, they can just scroll up the list of orders and click print. I don't know why the cashier was so PRESSED/ANNOYED to have to print a receipt. Calm down dude. To make matters worse, the food wasn't even good, I ended up tossing most of it but wish I could go back and toss it at them for being rude to us, completely unprovoked. Spend your money on an overpriced bowl elsewhere because FARRO doesn't deserve it.

Very filling salad bowls! I've been to Farro several times now, and it always hits the spot. My usual order is the Keto Bowl. What stands out to me the most here is the chicken, which they typically give a generous amount of.My only complaint is the price - while you do get a lot of food, it is more expensive than some of the other lunch spots offering similar items in downtown Houston. For how filling it is and the amount of protein included, however, I will continue to be back every once in a while.

Farro is located at the Understory food court in the Bank of America building. I'd never really paid attention to this place in the past, but a coworker mentioned it so I decided to give it a try. I ordered a BYO Grains bowl through the app Ritual and was able to step away from my desk at work to run downstairs and pick it up quickly. They prepared my meal in a timely manner, and it was DELICIOUS! The portions are generous - I barely got through half my bowl and had to save it for later (and I eat a lot LOL). I chose the Thai chili dressing for my bowl (pictured), and for all the various veggies and the chicken I added, it was well worth the price. If you're looking for something healthy, filling, and tasty, check this place out! I know I'll be back.

For those of you that want a healthier meal option Farro is the place for you. With different options for both wraps and power bowls, you'll feel full and recharged in no time. Although I'm not vegan, I suggest their vegan bowl. They have a nice balance of veggies and their balsamic sauce is LIFE. Cheers folks!

Stopped by for a quick lunch today and wanted to give Farro a try since I wanted to eat healthy and Flippin Patties isn't really in that category. Starts off with a salad, quinoa, farro, or brown rice base. Then you get to add up to 5 cold, fresh options that include chickpeas, edamame, cucumbers, beats, and many other options. Then you get 3 hot options, I went with the sweet potatoes, carrots, and broccoli. You have the option to add protein, I went with the sliced chicken breast. Finally there is the dressing, which I chose the orange tahini. Service was fast and friendly. The total serving size was good, but could have maybe used a little bigger scoop on some. Price is a little high, $17 for the bowl and a bottled tea. Will I go back? Without a doubt, very good, healthy option in the tunnels. Really enjoyed my meal.

Great option for a healthy build your own bowl lunch! Fresh ingredients and great flavors. I love the curried cauliflowers and the seasoned Brussels sprouts. The lemon dressing to top it all off just gives a fresh and tasty healthy option for my lunch!

The management staff was extremely helpful! As a first time customer I was offered a promotion deal to deduct 10 bucks from my 16 dollar order but the QR code didnt work. The manager on duty graciously honored their promotion and sold me the incredible bowl $5.87! Not to mention, all the salmon was cooked on cask iron skillet infront of me. And the veggies were fresh and seared to boot. The seating is open and easily accessible with free wifi and charging outlets. Noise level is moderate. One other thing to mention, this spot inside of understory and closes at 2pm.Hope you get a chance to try the food!

If you were to tell me that I had to give up all the foods I grew up with and could only eat one "type" or style of food and to choose....i would choose whatever great, goodness these guys make on a daily basis. I've only been a couple of times, but I leave happy and fulfilled after every visit.if you're trying to get as much protein as possible for your daily intake goals, you have to get the Super Protein bowl and then let them add that poached egg at the end. You can thank me later!Their juices are also a really great combination as well. Give them a try guys - don't be scared!

I tried Farro for the first time during the lunch rush. Since I work downtown, our work group loves to go to the tunnel and try new things! We walked towards the Understory area and found this place! It seemed like healthier lunch options so I tried the Vegan one and didn't sub anything because I wanted to try their bowl how it was intended to be eaten. One note- As a person who grew up vegetarian, I never liked imitation meet for ex: plant based nuggets I never tried before but never had the urge to try. The bill came out to be $15.00 without tip- I really didn't enjoy the taste of the bowl, It was definitely healthy but tasted bland even with the sauce they gave it with. It might taste better with other substitutes.

The cashier displayed remarkable rudeness. When I asked for a receipt, he insisted I should have tapped the screen faster. Even after explaining that it disappeared quickly, he replied with, "Be faster next time" before saying goodbye. Despite the receipt taking just one second to print, his impolite behavior was evident. There seems to be a need for better customer service training for the staff.
