Muscle Maker Grill

Since I work right down the street my co workers and I are constantly ordering from muscle maker. The food is really good! Lots of healthy options and a great alternative to all of the unhealthy eats around my job. The turkey chili meal is unbelievable. It’s around 700 calories, but I split it in half and had it for lunch and dinner the same night. Great service and I can’t wait to order next!

Convenient location and filling portions don’t negate a messy dining room and slow service. that said… I’ll be back to try that signature chicken breast sandwich.

Just ran into this place and thought it would be a good for a quick healthy lunch. Upon arriving almost all of the options were 600 – 800 calories. I don’t know who eats that many calories for lunch… but as far as heating healthy I know I dont. I ordered the turkey taco salad since it was only about 550 calories. When I got back to work and opened it, it was drenched in what looks like enchilada sauce. Maybe their version of salsa and tons of meat. And it was definitely NOT turkey meat. It was beef. I never eat beef and was so diassponted. And on top of that some of the large chunks of the beef were almost rare in the middle. Ughh. What a waste of money. If you think people can’t tell t he difference between beef and turkey you’re crazy. This explains why there were 3 people in there on a busy Saturday at hamden plaza at peak lunch hour. Skip it!

We were traveling to NJ for the weekend and we needed a pit stop, so I checked my bookmarks, and saw I saved this place to try. It is near the highway, but we did have a hard time finding it. It was later in the afternoon, so it was not busy. The guy behind the counter was nice and very knowledgeable about the food business as a whole. We had a nice chat. I ordered the XXL Turkey Burger Wrap and my husband ordered the Teriyaki Grilled Chicken Stir Fry and a protein smoothie. My husband was totally happy and would seek out this place again. Mine was very good, except for the processed turkey meat. It was cubed and chewy and brown. It was not what I was expecting at all. I would think a chain trying to be healthy would have fresh ground turkey, not this made mystery meat. I would try this place again to see what the other foods are like. The concept is great, they just need some refining. You do not have to have processed food in a chain. One more thing on my sandwich, the turkey bacon would have been better if it was crispy. Since my husband and I are on a quest to lose 50 pounds each, we will be back when we see another Muscle Maker Grill.

I had the el Mexicano today with chicken! It was delicious! I am very impressed with the healthy options and caloric/​fat counts displayed on the menu. They have plenty of food choices for foodies to picky eaters alike. They also feature a meal plan option that is surprisingly very affordable on any budget! Will definitely go back very soon!

As good as it gets, great convenient location, right next to the gym, with tons of parking.
This place is great and clean.
The food is flavorful and always fresh, the service is fast and friendly!
The smoothies are super tasty. The tropical mango is definitely my favorite.
Note; you can always place our order online to same time if you’re on the go!

This place great. The food is excellent, the service is speedy and efficient. Everything tastes exceptionally fresh and is delivered to your table nice and hot. I have yet to try everything on the menu but i suggest the texas style nuggets and any one if their wraps! Not a lot of people find this place but def check it out asap. Its great for all those meat heads looking to count macros since you can see and taste everything that’s in it! Its right next to the Edge Fitness in hamden. Appropriately. Just go. Its great.

Ugh– terrible experience here. Food is basic– pretty much every meal is precooked chicken breast with some buffalo sauce. The service is beyond awful. Their registers weren’t working and these kids they had working had no idea what to do– so they kept taking orders without the ability to run credit cards or make change for cash. Got stuck while they were on the phone with someone and blatantly ignoring us. No apologies at all. We will not be returning– and hopefully you won’t either!

Great healthy food. I love the Rocky Balboa wrap the best.
The menu items are rather similar from one item to the next but that’s what you get when trying to eat healthy! Friendly service, pretty quick. Place your order online too!

I’ve been here twice and both times found the food to be tasty and on the healthy side. The second time there I got the Cajun Chicken with whole wheat pasta. When I see Cajun I expect the food to be somewhat spicy, but this was not at all. With that being said, it was still quite flavorful and a good amount of chicken.
I’ve also gotten a smoothie both times and they are good and a little tart since they don’t overload them with sugar. I’ve ordered their Piña Colada smoothie both times, but have been told they were out both times. It must be so good that it always sells out.

I had a signature wrap– chicken, turkey bacon, cheddar, lettuce, tomato and sauce. All wraps come with your choice of a side. It was good and also HUGE– tons of chicken. Nice to get food on the run that isn’t terrible for you!

What I had was very good, my friend and I enjoyed our lunch, I only gave four stars because I am vegan and the choices for people like myself are cliché.

I gave it 4 stars because there’s no other place like it and the food was good. If comparing it to all other available choices I would give it 3 stars. Very clean and bright. Free wifi and a tv on the wall. The booths are huge and can seat 8. Regular tables available too along with a counter. I had the Tucson which is the smaller version of the Arizona. I also has the chicken nuggets with BBQ. It was all quite tasty and very healthy. Perfect after workout meal and really good healthy meal anytime. The only complaint is that the chicken on the rice was a bit dry. They should put the nuggets on instead if they can’t keep the plain breast moist.

Muscle Maker Grill is conveniently located near the gym (The Edge). After finishing a workout, you can have a nice meal. Each meal displayed on the menu denotes how much calories the meal contains. My Queen enjoyed the European Wrap (grilled chicken, spinach and parmesan). Her only complaint, too much chicken!!!
I had the teriyaki grilled chicken stir-​fry, and I thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The meal was flavorful and the portions plentiful. The staff was helpful and cordial. Overall, it was a good experience and worthy of a return visit…
