      I went to the Well in part because it's so close to ACL/3Ten. I had never eaten here before, but I loved the concept of healthier food per mindful preparation, and we enjoyed a couple of items off the happy hour menu before our main meals arrived. My friend enjoyed the fish, and I liked my entree in general, but I ordered the steak, and I was surprised to have two end pieces that were tough with gristle. When paying more than $60 for a piece of meat, this should have absolutely been trimmed. Every kitchen has an off night, so I would give the Well another go based on the ambience, appetizers, sides, and location. However, I've had much better steaks in Texas, which accounts for my lower food score. While I am not one, I would add it's a very good option for someone who is a vegetarian or pescatarian per the variety of choices that would please people in those categories.

      The food was amazing! It was so nice to find a place that is gluten free and dairy free. And the coconut ice cream was delicious! Server was very sweet and attentive. Would go again next time I’m in the area.

      I love having confidence in how the food is prepared. Not using seed oils is preparation makes the entire menu available. The steak is amazing!
