If you're looking for a borderline-edible salad under $10 with about the same level of quality as a street meat cart, then this is the place to go. But if you want quality, you're better off spending $15 at Chop't. I guess you get what you pay for.
Found a long hair in my salad within the first three bites. I ordered edamame: got artichoke hearts instead. Ordered red onions, got fried onions instead. "Crumbled" egg was more like an egg cut in three pieces. "Sliced" apples were the same enormous chunks. "Fresh" corn was brown & pretty gross-looking. The side piece of bread was totally stale.
As you get on the escalators to leave Penn Station, this place has a distinctive smell as you pass by
Got the South of the Border breakfast wrap. $5.50 gets you a 3 egg wrap (.50c/extra egg) with all the fixings- Pepper-jack cheese, jalapenos, spicy sausage. Eggs were cooked perfect. Make sure to get some ketchup or hot sauce on it. Great size and taste. The line moved pretty fast so didn't have to wait long.
Also this place houses a Red Mango so the smoothies are really good, tons of flavor. Apparently instead of sugar they use stevia which is awesome. I think the 16oz(regular size) was around $5
Finally- a small "food court" of sorts in Penn Station that joins together a Red Mango, full-service deli, convenience store items, and full bar that doesn't look or feel shady during the process! (I'm talking to you, strange Taco Bell-Dunkin Donuts-KFC- Pizza Hut in the LIRR wing!)
We came in for a quick bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich and were pleasantly surprised that the $3.75 price came with a small coffee bundled in. Unfortunately, they don't extend that combo deal to their breakfast burritos, wraps or omelettes, but we were both satisfied with the egg sandwich just the way it was. The roll was fresh, eggs fluffy, and bacon crisp, with a nice slab of cheddar (my request) keeping it all together! You can upgrade your coffee to medium or large for an additional $.30 or $.60, respectively.
On the lunch front, you can build your own sandwich starting at $8, but their house specials will net you more goods for less money, so I'd recommend going the latter route. The connected bar has good happy hour specials, but I'm not sure what's stopping you from buying a bottled beer off their nearby shelf and just walking five feet over to crack it open
From the glass guards to the salad bar topping, even to the floors, everything was meticulously clean and well-presented. I'd definitely recommend Chop & Toss to those looking for a good bite or place to relax for a few during their commute.

I'm not impressed.
