Friendly employees Rapid customer service Freshly dish made infront of you. They just let you choose what you want in it. I tried the Chicken Tonga Bowl "It was delicious". The atmosphere is clean and tidy. We will surely be returning. read more

I used to enjoy, Chopt when they first opened. But this is just saddening. I was super excited about getting the Palm Beach Salad that I have been craving for a couple days now. When I first entered, I was not greeted, which is something I never take as a good sign. When I ordered, I was used to them chopping the salad. Im sure this is probably a change due to Covid. Which is understandable. The salad was pre chopped which isn't the real issue; the salad leaves were wilted. I didn't notice until I was already in the car. I'm super disappointed with the salad as a whole. The chicken was super soggy and had no taste. Had I not been starving, I would have thrown the whole salad away. I truly cannot express the level of disappointment with my experience. Needless to say, I won't be back. read more

Hadn't been to a Chop't in years, maybe since high school so I was really excited to get one. I ordered the Crispy Chicken Ranch salad and added boiled eggs and avocado! It was really good. The diced carrots were a little harsh in comparison to shredded carrots. And unless you're going to eat the salad in one sitting, maybe there should be a smaller portion because it gets soggy fast! read more

It bothers me when food is not giving to you as advertised bc it's not cheap. It looks like my order was missing a lot of ingredients.

I placed an online carryout order for the Sweet Summer Cobb Salad, which features fresh peaches and sounded delicious. The salad was good in so many ways. The agave dijon vinagrette was a delightful dressing. The "sweet and smoky chicken" had a nice bite to it. All of the ingredients were fresh and crisp. So why did I only give it a "could've been better" two stars? Those ballyhooed fresh peaches? Yeah, they never made it into the bowl. read more

I had never been to Chopt before when I stopped by to grab a salad to-go for lunch one Saturday afternoon. Just like any fast casual establishment, such as CAVA or Chipotle, you can build your own meal or order off the menu! I decided to try the Palm Beach salad and added beets and shrimp. The staff member piled on the toppings before handing my salad to another staff member who then used a large curved knife to chop up and toss my salad with my choice of dressing - I went with the standard olive oil and balsamic vinegar. My salad came out to just over $11, which is actually a good deal considering how HUGE the salad was. I happened to be starving (I had a packed morning of spin class and a project meeting) so I ate the whole thing but it could easily be split into 2 meals if you wanted to save some for later! Chopt offers a simple, fast casual-style concept while still embracing healthy eating. My salad was flavorful and fresh with every bite, and I especially liked that all the lettuce and the toppings were chopped & tossed together! I had a great first experience at Chopt! read more

Yummy salads and wraps. Nice staff too! Great location Chinatown, so lots of action happening.

Maurice the manager at this location was phenomenal and made our first experience at Chopt one that will be very tough to beat! Bowls were fresh and tasty and all 4 of us thoroughly enjoyed our experience- mainly due to Maurice! He was phenomenal. Thanks so much! read more

Chopt. Ah, it's a chain and writing reviews of a chain is sort of like repeating yourself over and over and over and over.... yeah, you get the idea. If you haven't been to Chopt then I hope my review will guide you on what to get and what you can get. I, in no means is an expert at this place. So if you're hoping for me to go through every single option...it isn't going to happen. It's been a while since I've been to a chopt, but it was something that I wanted to check out considering that I enjoyed my first time experience. This time around I ordered the Crispy Chicken Ranch Salad. I wanted that chicken, and the ranch was an nice flair to it. The thing about Chopt is that you can choose any type of greens that they have and customize it. I think it was pretty daunting with so many people behind you in line that you sort of just have to know what you want when you get to the front. Or...alternatively you can just order it and just pick it up which I would highly, highly recommend. They place your order on the back on a shelve and you can just go and pick it up. It takes the stress out and you don't have to worry too much about it. The salad was great and I would highly suggest it if you're torn in what to get. I got it with the mixed greens and added the chimichurri ranch to it. You can also add other dressings if you want, on the side or in the salad. I believe they pretty much mix it in for you as default unless you ask otherwise. The biggest takeaway though if you decide to come here though, is that I would definitely recommend you to get here before or after the lunch rush because this place gets extremely busy. read more

I love Chopt and when I was in college in DC I used to frequent the one near campus. Today I decided to get my favorite wrap since I was close by. Upon entering I was not greeted for one. Next I was asked what I wanted and started listing toppings. The lady just acted like she didn't want to be at work and I get it . Work is exhausting. At the end I asked for it to be put in a wrap in which she stared at me and stopped chopping my salad. She seemingly became upset because I didn't make that clear at the beginning of my order. I stated she never asked me which one I wanted (salad , wrap, or warm bowl). She continued that I should have told her and made my wrap anyway. I expressed that she should have asked at the beginning of my order and stated that wraps are made at the end. She with attitude said no. As I sit here and eat she continues to look at me angrily. Very disappointed in the customer service . read more

Chop't is by far my favorite salad shop.  Their variety, the fresh ingredients, and their dressings, are all so good.  Their dressings in particular are nearly addictive.  They each have a unique taste, and are made much better than most dressings. Chop't in particular has all the standard salads, but then has some really creative Regional styles or variations of the traditionals. This Chop't is located right across the Metro stop behind Verizon Center.  Great people, perfect location, and outstanding salads!  Thank You Chop't! read more

I was recommended the Chicken Tinga bowl by Jimmy and I was a little skeptical at first but it was amazing! Great food and great service! Thanks to Jimmy, Mildred and Laura! Will be back again!!! read more

Generally very quick & efficient place to grab lunch- especially if you order ahead! I used the Ritual app and ordered the Mexican Caesar salad. Next time I might hold the jalapeño- it was a bit too spicy for me. I did thoroughly enjoy the Mexican caesar dressing- very tasty, creamy, and flavorful. Happy to report my order was ready, waiting on the shelf when I arrived. Yay, no wait! read more

Huge shoutout to Maurice! My order hit a snag, but Maurice handled it like a champ, with such kindness and professionalism. Maurice, you rock! read more

They had so many cool looking salads. Somehow I picked the one that wasn't. I picked a salad off the menu and the guy threw together my ingredients. It was passed to someone else to pack into a bowl and I was done. The other 4 people I was with, not to mention the swarm in front and behind me all got their salads chopped, and added in extra items. What did I do wrong? I really didn't know what was going on and no one offered to help. I get their busy and it's the lunch rush but sheesh, clearly I missed some important step somewhere. The full lead and mix wasn't great and would have been better chopped and with my own customizations. Maybe if I go back I'll figure out what I missed... read more

Good but overpriced salads. I got the Santa Fe salad and added chicken (sidenote: it bothers me when places charge extra for chicken, it's chicken. So I'm already paying $8 for lettuce and then you charge another $2 for chicken. What a rip off). Anyway, the place was packed but the line moved fast. There are a lot of salads to choose from. You pick one, tell the person behind the counter and they stuff all the ingredients in the bowl and add your dressing. Then they dump everything out of the bowl and chop it up. Good experience, I can't promise I'll be back tho, way too pricey! read more

I have eaten here three times now during my DC trips. Their food is fresh and fast. You get a large salad made to order. Would recommend to anyone looking for a salad for lunchtime. read more

Fresh, fast, friendly, delicious and with endless combinations. First visit to this chain and left wishing there was a franchise out in Montgomery County. Not only was the food great, but there are so many options. To put it in perspective, when I go to Chipolte, I have options but not THAT many, so I pretty much always get the same thing. And then I get tired of Chipolte and want to go somewhere else.... ...with Chop't, there are so many variations of toppings, meats, dressings, cheese and vegetables that it would seriously take a long time to get tired of this theme. Healthy and delicious. And if you don't have time to eat in place, get your salad as a wrap and eat it on the go! Great place. read more

Didn't want to eat what they had for lunch today at work so I opted to get a salad and here I am. I order the Texas Po' Boy salad with ONE modification and they got the order all wrong! I used their app so I can pick up and go! I had the time to sneak away and while doing so I discovered that my salad was made wrong. They left out the most important ingredient next to the lettuce . . . which is the chicken! I called the store and spoke with the manager and explained to him what happened. I opened my salad, poured the dressing, and took a few bites to discover the salad was made WITHOUT CHICKEN! I don't know how that happen, but how do you miss one of the main ingredients in the salad. It was not an add-on or substitution; it's one of many ingredients in the salad. After speaking to the manager, he laughed that the chicken was missing. I told him "sir, you don't get to laugh," and what is not funny is that I have to pay another establishment for food that I just paid for. He told me to come back, but no I can't. When I had the free time to come there, I did that now you want me to come back? Nah... I'm good and I cannot! I later learned that the other order that I picked up as well via the app was wrong too! She ordered kale greens INSTEAD of romaine lettuce. Was everyone having a bad day today or still sleeping? Reading is surely fundamental. I really like Chop't and it's my favorite salad shop! But this location, will no longer get business from me again. I need staff that is efficient and professional that can do their job with care! I mean, how did you forget the main ingredient! Anyway . . . I thoroughly appreciate management quickly responding to my issues regarding this matter and their swiftness to correct the problem was highly noted!! Thanks so much and I will be seeing you again! read more

My salad is absolutely always fresh and tasty! The sweet, smoky vinaigrette is to die for!!!!

I may be one of the last DC residents to join the fast-casual salad movement, but I can now say I am fully on the train to salad-town! Even though this is a chain, it was in no way lesser than any other salad-brandishing establishment. On the contrary, I was really blown away with the salad I had! First, you can have a warm or a cold (read: traditional) salad. I wanted a warm salad- from there you may decide between adding rice or cauliflower rice. The amount of rice they give is plentiful! I opted for cauli rice because it seemed like the 2020 thing to do. I always get extremely overwhelmed at fast casual ordering - because all the options - but Chopt provides their menu in printed format before you reach the ordering line, which was a huge sigh of relief for someone like myself that second guesses everything I decide to order (food FOMO!) With Chopt, you may pick any type of green / rice combination and customize it. They also, like many other locations, allow you to decide between some of their pre-arranged salad combo ideas from their menu. One thing I really appreciate was they also list their caloric / nutrition information! The caloric information is highlighted on their menu board, but a quick google search will bring up the establishment and the FULL nutritional breakdown of their menu listed salads (with both cauliflower rice and regular rice identified). One other main thing to note: this is RIGHT IN THE HEART OF CHINATOWN. As in immediately across from a metro stop. If you have any notions of getting in and out quickly, do not try and brave middle-of-the-workday foot traffic. I went on a weekend late in the afternoon, so did not have any issues with ordering or seating within the location, but I can imagine it can be quite hectic during the weekday lunch periods! All in all I absolutely would come back, I LOVED my salad - it was enormous and well made and tasted amazing. read more

Why are lines out the door? I don't get it...it's a chance to create your own expensive salad. They give you so little meat and the final price is around $14 for what, exactly? I understand that lots of people are on the go and may not have time to create a simple salad but this place is the epitome of a restaurant overcharging busy customers. It also feeds on customers who want to be "healthy" and justify their food options when without the high-calorie dressing, the meat has no flavor to make the salad worthwhile. There aren't many other healthy options in the area, so I can't tell if people who frequent Chop't really like the salads, or if they are settling for the only healthy choice. The lines do move pretty quickly though so if you want to give it a shot, do it! read more

Overpriced but good Walking in feels like a crazy cattle call and your try cattle Which means I wouldn't recommend eating here - not if you'd like to preserve your sanity BUT it's a great (trendy) healthy option Flow: 1. Walk in and take a menu 2. There's some attendant who will direct you to one of 5 stations- each has a staff of 3 who will make your salad dish 3. Tell them what salad/ toppings you'd like 4. They'll chop it up and add dressing 5. Kindly move your bottom to the check out line and grab a drink 6. Then leave lol seriously there's like 2 tables - not enough room read more

Delicious salad, very fast, customized...good shop location. App didn't work, no a/c (and it's hot and June!), and ice machine didn't work. No outlets to charge your phone. This place is very busy and they know how to keep the line moving! When I went, only two people stayed to eat. There are at least 10 tables here, maybe more. Lots of weirdo customers and good people watching on 7th St. (free entertainment)! $11 salad and drink. You can get a piece of bread from the cashier if you ask for it. I would come here again just bc the salad is so good but everything else is kind of annoying. read more

A few things should bring your attention to this place: 1. 6'5" muscular guys at my gym who do crazy work-outs which involve climbing ropes and balancing on gymnastics rings eat there (and feel full) 2. A very picky eater whom I have never seen eat a salad for a meal eats there. 3. There is a line out the door, down the block at 3 PM, of people waiting to eat there. Just the third point itself should stir a desire inside you to belong to a popular community of eaters and propel you to go. Oh, sorry, that's what propelled ME to go. That and the fact that you can add fried chicken as a topping!!!! OK OK maybe fried chicken is not as healthy an alternative, but my trainer told me to eat more calories so I don't care. This was my choice for $7.79 Chop't Po'boy - Romaine lettuce, home fried chicken,tomato,red onions and white cheddar with tex-mex dressing and pita bread. The salad was HUGE for me, I could only eat half, and all the ingredients worked extremely well together, I was full and satisfied and for $7.79 (which could potentially feed you twice) I don't think you can beat it. You can also create your own salad for $5.99 or salad sandwich for $5.79 with lettuce, 4 ingredients and dressing. Some of the ingredients and all the meats cost extra, but I think if you chose wisely you can still end up with a great salad for what I think is (in DC) a great price. And with stimulating ingredients to choose from like grapes, grilled portabello and edamame plus exotic dressings like general tso's chipotle dressing, spanish cucumber vinaigrette and rocket fuel dressing :) [it's fat free], you can always try making your salads exciting. A couple tips: -If you don't want them to chop your salad too much, just... yeah, exactly, tell them to stop. -If you don't want too much dressing, just.... yup, you guessed again, tell them you don't want too much. -Try the iced tea or lemonade, they're delicious And don't complain about the price... please.... we live in Washington DC, you can't get a salad for $4. read more

Impressive expediting during the lunch rush which is pretty important if you're wanting to get in and out with a salad before your lunch hour is over. Chop't probably has its New York roots to thank for that. The chopping with the "double-bladed mezzaluna knife" seemed a bit overkill to me. They say they do this because the salad tastes better "chop't" and I am just not sure I agree. Seems more fanfare than anything else. Nonetheless, my steakhouse salad was an enjoyable after-gym meal. I especially liked the kick of the tex-mex ranch dressing! Rumor has it that the Dupont Circle location at 1300 Connecticut will open in February 2008. With chop't in walking distance of home, you'll likely find me there, nibbling on a salad with a look in my eyes that can only mean one thing, "Why can't anyone do a salad as good as Mixt Greens http://www.mixtgreens.com/ ?" read more

I hesitate to go to Chop't because it just never seems appealing to me. While I support the local businesses in DC, if it's not good, it's not really worthwhile. However, in the insanity of the 'Chinatown' area, Chop't is a quick and healthy choice. I appreciate their efforts to go for local farms and purveyors of their ingredients. I appreciate the rotating special seasonal menus that celebrate the bounty of the moment for a few months- peaches on anything makes my mouth happier. Root vegetables are so tasty, and take so long to prep, it's dreamy to just add them in here. Many people order salads, but some order wraps. Go whatever way suits your mood, same price. Go for a mix pre-selected and thrown freshly together, especially if you want more than just 4 ingredients and a base. If you know what you like though, as I do, it is such fun to make your own! The Chop't salad greens blend base is extra, as is arugula, but it gives you multiple healthful green veggies and seems worth the $0.79 price tag! So many choices, but they don't always have every veggie under the sun. Tomatoes, cukes, onions, carrots, falafel, almonds, dried cranberries, olives and celery are some standards. I wish there were more, but is still a decent selection. All the dressings are gluten-free, and they mark the ones that are vegan, along with listing the calories. That's cool- you can even just go for lemon or lime juice. I like the tahini based ones and chili cashew. Some premium toppings are worth it, like avocado! Here's the part that is annoying to some folks... They, yes, chop everything up after they select your ingredients as directed. Then they dress it up with your amount of dressing. This chopping is annoying, because you don't see the beautiful wholesome ingredients in as gloriously represented a state as possible for cut veggies... But, I actually find it convenient. You know when you are eating a leaf of baby spinach or a slice of pepper, and you have a bunch of other stuff in that bite, it can hang out of our mouth. Here, you really don't have to worry about arugula stems sticking out as you try to shove a mouthful of salad into your mouth. Convenient! Overall, this place is not bad. I wish they had more vegan dressings and more vegetable choices, but, seasonal and all the time for veggies doesn't make sense for some. However, the location always makes me feel like it is sticky and just well worn from so many people in and out. I would go again for fast convenient salad that is fresh and easy to eat. Yay Chop't blend! read more

I come here at least once a week for lunch. The service is always prompt with a smile. You can usually order a sandwich and pay for it in under 5 minutes. It's nice to get a healthy option in Chinatown amid the casual fast food eateries. I never feel guilty after eating Chopt. As a tip, I recommend coming here before noon, when it starts to get packed. read more

If ever oh Lord would you put one of these in New Orleans I would be the healthiest person in the city. My God how I loved this place. The salad and service was excellent with an excellent business model. Its really a chipotle for salad and better than chipotle. The menu combinations and dressings are staggering. If I lived in DC I could eat at Chop't every day. For 7 bucks you get enough salad for two meals and its so good you can't stop eating it. The dressings and veggies are so good the meat gets in the way. A sure fire way for me to go vegan, please oh please come to New Orleans. read more

Get your rabbit food fix here and leave satisfied. The salads are filling, very fresh, and you get a variety of ways to make it, perfect for the lunch crowd who's trying to shed that freshman 15 or 20 after you've graduated GWU.... some ppl complain about the prices but i think it's par for course here (the salads average between 6-8 bucks) but if they were any higher, there should be more "premium toppings". I did like the chef specialty salads. they also serve soup and salad sandwiches... The decor is nice for a take away/carryout spot and I like the Boylan soda selection on tap. Definite plus. I don't like how fine they chop the salads. the pieces in my salad were cut smaller than baby food, so next visit imma tell 'em to be easy on the chopping. read more

Dont get me wrong, the food is very delicious, and the customer service and staff was superb. The restaurant dining was also fantastic especially the intrinsic value concept of the innovative interior design quality on par to decor. However for the quantity size of the Salad was not in favor to the size of your stomach capacity and the size of your wallet. Kind of reaching past budget, or a little too expensive for a cup of small salad, it comes in 1 size i believe, or the largest size is still small. read more

Ate here the other evening. Had the crispy chicken ranch salad. I thought it was really good. The only issue I found is that the menu picture shows big chicken chunks, however, they were as finely chopped as the salad. I would have liked more chicken as well. The dressing that comes with the salad has a nice spice to it and is flavorful. Definitely going back. read more

I love Chop't! I'm upset that they only have it in Washington DC and New York! That just doesnt seem far. I think their marketing team really needs to throw Chicago into the mix. My favorite salad is the Palm Beach salad. It comes with tomatoes but I like to substitute it with broccoli. Its ultra delicious with caesar salad. The crowd here during lunch is insane. The line is out the door and down the street. Thankfully they increase their staff here for the lunch hour so the line moves pretty quickly. But good luck finding a place to sit down and eat. We had to really fight for a table. I will miss you Chop't! read more
