the Habit  (Station Park) Chicken sandwich w/ teriyaki sauce, onion rings, Super Food Salad
Hug Hes- Prime Rib Salad, bread is so good. (Chef Salad, not so good.) Nice quiet atmosphere, kind of pricey, good for a quiet lunch though.
Boba World (Bountiful) Pretty good Chinese food for this area! Loved the fried rice. Like the Pineapple Chicken and house fried rice. Special Chicken- terrible - little bits of dry fried chicken.
The Mandarin (Bountiful) like the cashew chicken
