Great for lunch. Light and hearty options. It's cafeteria style when you go choose what you want, but there are menus on the wall before the food area. If it's not in the food area already, they'll make it to order. I would recommend this place for a group. There's something for everyone.

Burrito Thursday is the best! Best burrito in town. Menu changes everyday so check out Twitter for updates. The app makes it easy and you don't have to wait in line!

Good food. The place was packed as I can only guess it usually is since it's only open 11-2 Mon thru Fri. The ordering system is chaotic...so its probably wise to call your order in ahead of time.

Wow very good food and it’s fulfilling. I got a burrito and orzo rice. I normally don’t order Mexican food unless it’s from an authentic Mexican restaurant but this burrito was actually delicious and full of flavor.. they are generous with the chicken inside & it taste homemade. Loved it! Highly recommend eating lunch here.

This place is consistently great. They have specials of the day, which are fun when you want to mix it up. You don't usually need to, though, because their menu offers a lot of variety. They definitely have a "customer first" mentality and it shows. Wonderful place, wonderful people! :)

For a place that’s only open 15 hours a week, they are constantly packed and the food is always great!! I had salmon for lunch there a few weeks ago and it was in the top 5 EVER pieces of fish I’ve had. It was AMAZING!! It’s kind of hidden in a biz complex so you might not know it’s a restaurant but stop in M-F from 11-2. You won’t be sorry!!!!

Great lunch spot with a rotating menu of fantastic specials. I order online for a quick pickup when it gets mobbed at lunch time.

The food is good, but marginally pricey for lunch hours. However, it's a nice place to have lunch on the healthier side.

Cafe Meridian never disappoints with a wide variety of flavorful menu options. You can choose between hot bar items, salads, and sandwiches, and multiple daily specials. The cafeteria style restaurant's location is conveniently located off of I-40 and Highway 55 and offers dine-in and carry out.

Cafe Meridian is a real gem for folks working in the RTP area. The food is fresh, flavorful, and wholesome.

Very good lunch location for the area. It's a smallish cafeteria style environment with high quality food. There are daily specials. There are also very good sandwich options along with the daily specials. About 11:50 they get so busy the line almost goes out the door. It's worth getting here early to avoid the crowd. They are only open for lunch.

Daily and weekly specials keep variety in my life. Close to those that work in the meridian park area. Web ordering makes things easy. There are a few favorites that I have now, cubano, salmon, and whatever burrito they have that week always hots the spot.

First visit and very well worth it. Had the Hollywood sandwich, just a half. Should have gotten a whole and I could have saved the other half for dinner it was so good. Original sandwich that had Turkey, London broil, gouda, avocado and bacon lettuce and dijionaise, had the tomato left off, on a sub roll. I'm not one for trying new things but this one was well worth it!

The food here is always good!! Don't let the long lines (which moves pretty fast)deter you from giving them a try.

Good lunch spot, very popular and busy. The specials rolled through the line quickly, but I ordered a sandwich and it took a little bit during the lunch rush. The turkey chili was so, so, seemed like the ingredients weren’t the highest quality. Would go back, but would get one of the lunch specials.
