Reviews for Clean Eatz in Durham, NC
My husband called again, the owner asked for his email and date of purchase and promised he would refund. There has been no... refund even after 1+ month. We give up on believing the dishonest owner. Will visit the Cary one. ?????? Very dishonest store!We went in, due to the manipulative paying system they charged us ~20 dollars in tip (note: we were there just to pick up frozenpizzas). We realized it was wrong after getting a text message about how much tip we were paying from five stars so we calledimmediately to correct the tip amount. We were promised we would get the difference back but it never showed up. Then when wecalled again the general manager had a really really bad attitude yelling that we can?t get the money back since we ?paid it?,even though it was a mistake and someone already promised they would correct the mistake and refund the difference. Straight updishonest and rude. We?re willing to tip, but not willing to get scammed like this. Read more
Staff was very friendly and helpful, so this is not a knock on them at all. Just the food. Everythjng we ordered ranged from... gross to mediocre. Smoothies were grainy and tasted like artificially flavored protein powder and not much else. Mac and cheesewas a weird kind of watery queso poured over watery noodles. All four of my kids agreed the smoothies and macaroni were not verygood. Sweet potato fries were a weird combination of limp and rubbery. I got a bowl with chicken, which was small bland dicedwhite meat, brussels weren?t cooked enough, zucchini was okay I guess, roasted potatoes were overly salted and tasted likethey?d come frozen rather than fresh. Plus the menu wasn?t very descriptive so I wasn?t sure if ingredients werecooked/dressed/shredded/seasoned or what. I was expecting to be able to see them and pick that way. I wanted a quick healthylunch for my kids and paid $40+ for food that didn?t taste good and tasted either frozen or mass-produced. We went next door andgot a donut afterwards. For this type of food Happy and Hale on 9th does a far, far better job. Maybe this is healthy as in?low-calorie? but it didn?t taste fresh or unprocessed. Or tasty. Read more
For a place called Clean Eatz, I was surprised to find pizzas, burgers and fries, and no mention of organic ingredients,... grass-fed beef or really anything I associate with the word "clean" when it comes to food and nutrition. That being said, theydo have some "clean" options that may or may not fit your dietary needs and goals. I went with a (medium size) build-my-ownbowl--which has increased in price by around a dollar (and with more upcharges for the proteins) since the menu photos posted 6months ago. The man who took my order was impatient to get back to hanging out with his coworkers while I chose my ingredients.The limit of 1 base and 3 vegetables was a little disappointing compared to other places that are more flexible/generous. Aftersome wait (it's cooked to order), my bowl came out. The components were very lightly seasoned and plain, relying on the sauce(s)for flavor. After adding some salt and pepper, teriyaki and goddess sauce, it was ok. The "roasted" carrots were still mostlycrunchy, and the farmed salmon (+$2) pale and bland. The sauces were each mediocre, and I yearned for some herbs, sesame seeds,or perhaps pickled red onion to liven things up. It also didn't have quite enough brown rice (the base I chose) for the amountof veggies and protein. Overall, swing and a miss for me, and I could have easily cooked a better version of this at home. Forthe price and "clean" or cleaner ingredients with better flavor (and faster! and outdoor seating!) I'd go back to Chipotle orPanera around the corner, Tasu Express (for poke) or even Moe's.

Found this place while on my way to Moe's for a random craving. Glad I did bc then I found Clean Eatz and looked them up... online. For the last month or so been getting food off of their meal plan that changes weekly. I will have to say that I enjoy95% of what I get there. And even better since it is week to week ordering I can skip a week or some weeks get low carb mealsand other weeks get the regular meals as is. It is much more affordable and sustainable than other meal plans and best of allit is clean eating in a fast casual setting. The staff is friendly when I come in and answer any questions I have about theirfoods. Will continue with them as a healthy and convenient option as long as I can afford it. It had helped me make better foodchoices as I am less likely to get unhealthy fast food if I have this already at home and it takes minutes to heat up. Read more
I got a coupon in the mail and decided to check this place out. It's not only a dine-in restaurant but also has dozens of frozen... to-go meals you can browse and buy right there, along with their order ahead meal plan. I got a protein bowl (sweet potatoes andsalmon) and smoothie (belly buster strawberry and banana) to-go, and both were excellent. I got 3 frozen meals, and they've beendelicious, convenient, healthy options for my busy days. On top of that, the place is bright, open, and incredibly clean. Kaylawas so friendly and patiently answered all my questions. She was helping a dine-in group at the same time and was very efficientand polite. She gave great recommendations and even brought all the food out to me, even though she was also working theregister. I will definitely be going back! Read more
I cannot say enough good things about Clean Eatz Durham. The weekly meal plan process is easy from a variety of angles - easy... to order, easy to pick up, easy to warm up, easy to track macros/calories, and easy to eat these delicious meals! The store is a3-in-1. It's a healthy restaurant, a quick grab heat and eat (frozen) meals and a weekly meal plan with six different FRESH/notfrozen choices each week, and tiered pricing so the more you buy the cheaper it is per item. The restaurant is good, withhealthy options that taste good with surprising flavors that are tasty and fun! The frozen quick grab meals are delicious. There are lots of options to chose from among a whole wall of freezers similar to a grocery store frozen section. The portionsare reasonable and the pricing is easy, with regular options being $6.99 and the XL protein being $8.49. The meal plan with 6fresh options each week is our favorite. We had previously done a delivery meal service but were unimpressed at the value andthe quality of food. Clean Eats uses all fresh ingredients including fresh herbs, dynamic flavors and surprising combinations. For example, I just finished an egg frittata that was so so good, with fresh potatoes, onions and green peppers, eggs, shreddedbeef, cheese and flavorful seasonings. Their meals actually make me excited for the next one, and having them ready to heat andeat, versus spending 15-30 minutes prepping a meal, trying to figure out how to use the ingredients we have, and overall havingdecision fatigue at the end of a long work day - this is the answer to our unspoken needs. Thank you, Clean Eatz, we hope youare around forever!!! Read more
Had a terrible experience there. I went with some family and we ordered together. After waiting 20-30 minutes, my family's order... arrived but mine did not. I was then informed that they forgot to actually put my order in, but they would make it for me "rightnow." After another 15 minute wait, I got up to tell them to forget it, but they were just coming out to serve it to me anyway.The food was inedible. I had a bison burger that was flavorless and charred beyond well done. The sweet potato fries on the sidewere also burnt, and I mean BURNT. I love crispy fries, but most of these were black all the way through with no potato left.The rest of the family's food was equally bad. They apologized by giving a coupon for a free meal from their "to go" case, but Iwouldn't want more of their food. Read more
BEST place to get REAL healthy food. ???? The manager, Jacob, is super friendly & helpful. I?ve gone twice a day for two weeks... because the food is consistent & delish. Also, Liv is my new Clean Eatz bestie. Just go already! Read more
