The new restaurant, Eatsa has made its way to New York City, located at 285 Madison Ave (41st St). I managed to stumble across it while I was walking around the city and I immediately fell in love. When you walk in, you are greeted by very kind staff members assisting you if you have never been inside before. There was a row of touch-screen devices where you go and place your order. They have pre-set meal options such as various quinoa bowls and salads, but you are also able to customize it yourself.
The restaurant allows for zero communication between the cooking staff and the customers dining. You pay on the touch screen with your debit or credit card prior to heading over to the cubbies where it states your name on it. The cubbie will illuminate when your order is ready and your touch on the cubbie will open the door where your food awaits you.
Conveniently for New Yorkers, you are also able to place an order on your phone and go into the restaurant, find your cubby and head out the door with your food. Not only is the restaurant concept convenient, the food is absolutely delicious! I will be making many trips to Eatsa this semester!
