i'm sticking with my initial thought. no one on earth cares this much about "market plates." :)

I mean, I think you’re wrong. And for what it’s worth, that is just an easier term to describe a clean, healthy portion of  “protein, veggies, sides, etc”.  I think folks would very much appreciate a spot like that done right.

It's actually not closed. Don't listen to yelp. I love this place https://www.yelp.com/biz/organic-food-natural-juice-and-coffee-shop-corp-ii-elmhurst

Yelp will say a business is closed when you are looking at the Yelp restaurant page after the business/restaurant has closed for the day......or, before it has opened.  You've got to be careful with what "closed" actually means.

I think there is a separate Yelp designation for permanently closed. In the area where it gives a business's hours, it will say "closed" if you are viewing it after closing time. But I think it says "permanently closed" in a more prominent spot if that is the case.

Yes, that is correct ljr.  But, it's an easy mistake to make to think a business is closed when you see "business hours" and it reads "closed."

This place looks great! Don't know how I've missed it. Looking forward to trying it soon. Do you have any recommendations for what's good?

There's only two choices for turkey or salmon as the main. Then you get to choose as many sides as you wish to fill up the plate. The soups add a couple or few dollars. Yes - I have been a fan of this place for YEARS but it never really got picked up anywhere.

This place called Organic food corp on 86 street, Sells NOTHING ORGANIC, I believe its illegal to promote a product your not really selling ! Or misleading ignorant people to believe your selling them organic products ! prices are too cheap at this place for it to be organic. Theirs is no way organic salmon can go for $16 it just doesn't add up ! or Organic chicken for $12.
