Clover Food Lab - Westford

This review is specifically for the Westford location. I was eager to try the Nashville hot mushroom dish again this year, even though I found the seasoning to be a bit overwhelming last time. I was hesitant to order from this particular location, but decided to give it a shot. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the portion size I received, which was much smaller than what I have received at other locations. Additionally, the fries were overcooked and resembled small McDonald's fries. My sandwich was mainly filled with corn cream mayo, with only a small amount of mushroom. I ended up throwing half of the sandwich away. I did not enjoy the mayo cream and do not remember it being on the sandwich last year. However, I did appreciate the use of sauce instead of powder.

The food is delicious when prepared correctly. Despite not being a vegetarian, I find the food here to be very appetizing. However, I have received the wrong items in my order on multiple occasions. When I lived in Burlington, the Clover location there was much more consistent. Although the Westford location is in a smaller space in Whole Foods, I still occasionally purchase from here. If you have access to other Clover locations, it may be better to dine at those establishments.

I was a little confused at what to order and the very friendly human behind the counter was patient and I had a great meal!

After taking some time to finally write this review, I am impressed by the efforts this restaurant is making to offer meat-free options. However, my main issue with them is their inconsistent cooking. I frequent the Westford location weekly, sometimes even twice, and it's hit or miss whether my order will be cooked properly. I have experienced undercooked curried carrots, overly hard or soggy potatoes, and consistently overcooked falafel balls that are almost too hard to eat. The portion sizes are small, which is fine, but I suggest serving three medium-sized falafels for better taste and texture. Until the quality improves, I have decided to stop visiting this restaurant.

This is a very interesting place inside the whole foods market. Lots of options
