I have to say, I was soooo disappointed with my last visit to The Herb Box. The Hubs and I took the wee one for a late lunch last week. The restaurant was surprisingly busy for how late it was in the afternoon, and we sat outside in their small courtyard. Our server was new (2nd day) and a little out if it, but nice nonetheless. We ordered the cheese plate for a starter, and the falafel and turkey avocado wrap for entrees. OH MY GOD the service was SO slow. It took a good 25 minutes for us to receive our measly, pathetic excuse of a cheese plate. Some Carr crackers and water wafers thrown onto a cheese board with a handful of dried cherries, boring slices of Tillamook, blue and some other something cheese no one bothered to identify for us. I was so sadly disappointed with the cheese tray. The cheeses looked as if they had been purchased in bulk at Costco and shaved onto a plate, the crackers I can find in my pantry at home, and the dried cherries came out of the bulk bin at my local Sprouts. Where was the variety? The grapes and apples and nuts and artisan cheeses and crackers? And of course the \"Market Cheese Board\" had a \"MKT\" price of TWELVE DOLLARS. No way!!! MISS.\n\nProbably a good forty minutes after ordering did we FINALLY receive our meals. Seriously, how long does it take to throw together a wrap? A COLD TORTILLA FILLED WITH COLD CUTS AND SALAD? Beats me, but for the time spent waiting I was expecting the best damn wrap I've ever laid lips on. WRONG. It was bland and boring. I didn't finish half. The sweet potato chips were devoured though, of course.\n\nThe falafel was pretty good. They were deep fried, and a little overdone, but still okay. I'll give them that.\n\nAll I am saying is what happened to my last 5-star experience at The Herb Box? The food was so miserable this time around, and the slow service was, too. Sadly, I don't think we will be going back.
