Mixt Greens salads rock my world!

by jbinner

What more could you ask for: delicious food, amazing variety, cool staff, awesome outdoor seating. It does get busy, but the line moves quickly and they have a to-go case you can grab from and go straight to the register, i.e. in and out in less than 60 seconds.

• Pros: fresh, gourmet ingredients, creative salad combinations, friendly staff
• Cons: popularity

Uncooked meat alert!!

by claresf

I can't imagine why people line up each day for these salads. I have given this lunch place many chances, and after many long waits (even before the lunch crowd), three separate incidents of uncooked meat, and one VERY SURLY salad maker, I've officially given up. I had to microwave the chicken on my pre-made salad because it was pink and runny, and I had already brought it back to the office. The turkey on the disco sandwich was similarly pink and slimy, so I had to toss the whole thing. When I ate at the location, I had to have the droopy bacon (also on the disco) put back on the grill so it wouldn't gum up the rest of the sandwich. The line chefs seem to pride themselves on speed, but one in particular became angry and verbally abusive when he rushed through my colleague's order and got it wrong. When said colleague contacted to restaurant to report the incident, she got some cheerful sounding manager that basically told her "thanks for the feedback!" and "come visit us again soon!" Do not fall prey to this $10 salad fad.

• Pros: Sustainability concept, including compostable packaging.
• Cons: Uncooked meat, surly staff, long waits.
