Eat Rite has a restaurant connected to their health food store. The atmosphere is casual; the food is great. The theme is healthy food. They have a full self serve salad bar that is sold by weight, a menu with several sandwich selections, and a couple of hot entrées. My favorite is the green chili and sour cream turkey enchiladas!
