"I enjoy how customizable the food options here are, from choosing your protein to do you need utensils. I remember being taking to City Lights almost 2 decades ago for the first time, and being amazed by each bite of food I stuffed in my face. City Lights is often my go to place, when I want/feel I deserve a reward! That should explain how much I like the food..."

"I am enjoying many of what I think are newer options like being able to choose to add broccoli to an entre, and the delicious fresh fruit option as a side. I also love the new branding, the updated City Lights bag is beautiful. It is fun to use during the week as my lunch bag."
