Wow, I was not expecting to be impressed with this place as much as I was. was expecting to be disappointed and think it was overpriced and a downgrade from SweetGreen. NOPE. If you're not eating meat, then the value here is so high! I got a solid bowl for less than $13 because tofu is one of the standard/free toppings so you can get a super filling bowl without any uncharges if you want. I was also impressed with the quantity and that it's served in all compostable packaging. Great labeling for allergies too. Annoying that quinoa is more expensive than rice but oh whelp. The server who worked with us was so nice (ugh wish I could remember his name, it was four letters I think??) will definitely be back. This place has nothing on Mendo in my opinion. I would also just plan to park in the garage by QFC rather than look for a spot in the general lot. read more

There was no line and the service was fast. Got a steak salad and the portion was kinda on the smaller side, especially for the steak. Seating was nice. I could people watching at the shoppers from the window read more

I remembered Evergreens being good and a place to get a fresh, healthy meal. While it may still be fresh and healthy, it was not as good as I remembered. I thought they had WiFi (based on previous reviews), but when I paid for my meal and asked for the password, the cashier said it wasn't available to the public. Had I known that there wasn't WiFi for customers, I would've gone elsewhere. read more

So we were staying at Seattle childrens hospital for my sons big surgery for a couple days and I read about this restaurant and I thought it was my type of food. I never been so I asked the guy working there to help with suggestions and he did help but the sauce he suggested was so spicy I couldn't eat it !!! I like spice so I was so surprised and brought it back and the lady took it and tried to refund my card but had so much trouble. We never got the refund to our credit card so I emailed two times NO response wow!!!!I decided after a month I'll call tomorrow the store and ask for the manger and I'll let you know what happens I'm annoyed mostly cause she was having so much problems refund my card she even said once oops I almost gave the refund to another card lol Wow now I see why I didn't get my refund! But the website not returned my 2 emails that's terrible customer service read more

Service isn't always the best but lately it's been great. I can't ever get enough Evergreens. Come here any chance I get! They have the best salad options and the hard part is decision which one to try that day! Currently obsessed with The Spice is Right. Hoping they make it a year round option. read more

EVERGREENS NEVER MISSES!!! Bella provided the best service today. I tried the minty green sauce (Cholula I think?) that she recommended and it was SO delicious! She really hooked me up with portion sizes too. I also ordered a regular size salad, but with all the toppings I chose (unlimited!) she ended up putting everything in a large container so it felt like I got an upgrade haha. I got a BYO salad with mixed greens, a scoop of rice, added corn, cucumber, hummus, pickled onion, cauliflower and a whole bunch of other things. I always love adding a scoop of bacon at the end so I did that, and it rly hit today. Soooo yummy and fresh, healthy, super filling, and honestly just makes my body feel great. They really don't skimp on the portions or quality here!! Will always continue coming back. Thank you Bella!! read more

Evergreens - BYO BUILD YOUR OWN SALAD - Salad Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Yum! Came here for lunch after an interview nearby and was starving. I love big salads and this place certainly delivered. It is very similar to that of sweetgreen which I have been to a number of times on the east coast. Not sure if there are any out here yet! I did the customized salad/grain bowl option. Went with quinoa, arugula, chickpeas, lots of toppings and the caramelized onion dressing. It was so big! I really liked the flavors of all the toppings and the dressing combined. It also includes a nice chunk of focaccia bread. The staff seem very friendly but also efficient at keeping the line moving. I can imagine this place might be very busy during the lunch hour. I went around 2:30 and there were still quite a few people grabbing and going out with their salad from here to sit elsewhere. They do have indoor seating available as well. No bathroom though so you have to go around the corner for that. read more

Everyone is sleeping on on evergreens!!! Y'all missing out... I love the fact that you can add most toppings without having to pay more. This makes for an INCREDIBLY filling grain bowl (like, two good meals worth of food) for around $12. Not to mention the free piece of bread they also add! Also if you're a student, DONT FORGET to ask for the student discount to knock down the price a little more! There is almost never a line, unlike chipotle which is right around the corner and can have ~30 min wait at rush hour. Also, I love the customizability of the bowls! There is such a wide variety of sauces and toppings that you can really mix it up every time you go. This place is ideal for busy college students who need a quick and healthy meal without breaking the bank. read more

I go to evergreens for either the el sombrero or super bowl, but dang it is getting so expensive. $20 with tax/tip for a salad with protein.. would recommend adding extra toppings that are free to make it more filling and worth it. The focaccia bread it comes with is good! read more

I've only ever gotten soups here, but they're super affordable (the soup pictured was $4) and flavorful!

Evergreens - Butternut squash soup - Salad Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Pre-pandemic I was a frequent weekday Evergreens customer. The build-your-own large let me customize the elements to my dietary needs and create something delicious that I could eat every day. Post pandemic I have found that as the number of locations increased, the quality has gone down. If I'm going to eat out and paying $15 +$2 feta +$2 avocado +20% tip for a salad, I expect it to be as good or better than what I can make at home. They stopped chopping the leaves which means that the dressing absorbs less and the flavor tastes like seasoned leaf. Chopping was a unique selling point (USP) and they completely lost it. Giving them 1 star so their business pays attention. Maybe I'll start my own salad company so they can remember how it's done. The UVillage location has a Homegrown 10 steps away. read more

I'm a huge fan of Evergreens Salad, so it's nice to know that there's a location at U-Village for whenever I'm in the area. And I do find that at this location, the staff gives you a lot of bang for your buck! I visited Evergreens Salad for lunch while shopping at U-Village and ordered one of my favorite salads, the spicy kale caesar salad. This salad has a kale base and unlike the traditional caesar salad, there's a kick to this one, as it comes with crushed jalapenos, seeds and all! I definitely recommend trying this if you like spice and caesar salads. And the employee there gave me a hefty amount, so much so that it would not fit in the large bowl I ordered. They're definitely generous here. Space for dining is spacious enough, including some tables outside where it's dog-friendly. As with its other locations, you can use your phone/rewards system here for transactions, and the menu features not just salads that you can customize, but grain bowls and wraps. I love Evergreens, so find me back here when I need a healthy meal while shopping at U-Village. read more

Evergreens - Spicy Kale Caesar Salad - Salad Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Solid salads. It's expensive. It's healthy. It's green. Is it steak, no? Cheeseburger? No. It's what you eat after a long night out drinking Pabst and tequila. Ask for extra dressing if you are feeling wild. read more

One of my favorite chains when eating out. When you enter, it both feels & smells quite fresh & invigorating. The color palette & design is cool and the dark vibrant green is a perfect base of such a place... to stuff... your face. The staff is always generally friendly & smooth. Depending on w/e factors, sometimes the scooping of ingredients can come across as a tiny bit ditzy (airborne shrapnel from the speed they're moving the scooper/spoon thing). One of the old/former ladies at front was a familiar face from Veggie Grill downtown so that was a cool exchange of pleasantries. One of my go-to's is fairly simple yet balanced: a large size custom bowl, brown rice, various colorful veggies, sometimes some beans, a few spices/herbs and lemon squeezes for dressing. I typically skip their oil-based dressings but sometimes I'll do them because they seem to have great flavor profiles. I wish the staff could chop the order up, similar to a few other locations from back in the day. I think the foccacio bread was also vegan(?) but don't recall; I did try it a while back and it was meh (cold bread blah). This reminds me of a random tangent, long ago, where there used to be an awesome local salad bar chain location in Zoopas (Tukwila & Bellevue)... RIP :/ read more

Evergreens and ever so many toppings! I am a fan. For so many reasons. This chain is similar to Pluto's, Sweetgreen, Mixt, etc. They have a choose your own or pre-made salads and wraps. But, I actually liked it better for a few reasons. 1. All the toppings! That's right. "How many toppings can I get?" "AS MANY AS YOU WANT." I don't know if this was by some error, but I got UNLIMITED TOPPINGS. Boom, done, drop dead, amazed. 2.Greek yogurt, lower calorie dressing option! This was a nice offering that other places don't have. 3. They have housemade bbq sauce you can get which you can get as a finisher - super awesome. 4. Yummy focaccia bread included. I like this better than Mixt's bread. 5. SO cheap - relatively. $9 a pop for a salad is a few dollars less than SF chains. Yes, it is still lettuce and some veggies or whatnot. And, a lot of items that cost extra at other chains are included here. 6. Also, witty names for their pre-made salads. I have an appreciation for some food humor. A healthy lunch option at UVillage! Plus, UNLIMITED TOPPINGS - whether accidental or not, I will take it! read more

Evergreens - Make your own salad! Unlimited toppings!!! Love this place. - Salad Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Whenever I decide to treat myself out to lunch, I always find myself coming here. Evergreens is a pretty decent spot to grab lunch in university village if you're look for something light. My go to is the spicy kale salad and I love making it my own version by adding their pickled onions, corn, chickpeas, and cucumbers. Their ingredients are incredibly fresh and the focaccia is a nice cherry on the top. I love seeing the salads get mixed, it's actually kind of incredible how fast it can be done. Each salad goes for $10, with upgrades to a larger size at $11. The best bang for your buck would be ordering their kid's size which goes for $6 and it is just as filling as the regular size! Don't bother adding protein or avocado in your salad. It's normally an extra $2 or $3 for a very small portion. I would come here during lunch time with caution. Sometimes they can get you in and out in 10 minutes, but there's been times where I've found myself trapped in there for 20 minutes. It may be best to order through online if you're looking to avoid long wait times. Overall, a good place to grab a delicious and healthy meal. read more

Evergreens - Spicy kale with corn, pickled onion, and chickpea add ons - Salad Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Not bad but not great. If you are a vegan looking for a food option at university village, this will suffice. Salads have interesting topping options but you just don't get much. If I'm paying $15 for a salad, I don't want just a sprinkle of other vegetables. So, food for value is why I give 3 stars instead of 4. The experience just wasn't good enough for me to return. I'd rather try other restaurants at this shopping center. read more

I really wanted to like this place, but perhaps I came on a bad day. Tldr: tasty salad, I like the concept, but the service was pretty bad. My significant other ordered a wrap that came ripped. I ordered a large salad with a dressing on the side, but I had to come back because he'd forgotten my dressing. I guess he also ran out of dressing and it wasn't filled all the way. Not a huge deal if he hadn't seem so annoyed with me the entire time I ordered. It was also my first time in, and the guy seemed really annoyed at everything I picked, and any question I asked. Especially when I asked if you could do a half and half protein. I didn't think it was such an egregious question, as it's a chipotle style establishment. (No half and half option, it's $3 any meats). Perhaps I came on an off day, as a lot of the reviews rave about the friendly service. There was no line either. Maybe it would make things go smoother if everything was labeled. I had to ask what some things were like the dried apricot, much to the dismay of the dude working there. The salad tasted good though, I got romaine Lettuce, mixed greens, arugula, with a ton of toppings with the evergreen caeser. They Smash it so it's got a good texture. Something I'll incorporate in my salads at home. We also got a side of tomato soup (+$4), which was pretty tasty. A bit more sour than a lot of other tomato soups, but tasted fresh. I love the idea of eating fresh, locally produced veggies and fresh food you customize, but it wasn't a very welcoming or friendly atmosphere. read more

We ordered online and were able to walk around U Village for a bit before our food was ready. The folks working were all really friendly and helpful. The Med Over Heels is DELICIOUS, although not on par with authentic Mediterranean of course. The Teriyaki Pun Here was pretty average. I wouldn't recommend the bread that every meal comes with, it was tough, flavorless, and spongy in an off-putting way. Overall it's a good place for a quick healthy meal in a pinch. read more

Said no to yummy Shake Shack & tried Evergreens. I had a custom kale & arugula salad with avocado for $14. It was generous in size and quite good. With the slice of focaccia bread, it's filling. I felt healthy eating so much kale. I wish we had more salad places like this. Minus 1 star for a couple of pieces of not quite fresh arugula. Overall, I like Evergreens! read more

My fav part about this place is their salad names. Kudos to whoever comes up with these. I've come to terms with the fact that salads are $10+. However, I have not come to terms with the fact that a little 2oz cup of chicken is $3. How do I know it's 2oz? Well they forgot to include chicken in my salad so I went back to get the chicken added. After the lady at the register inspected my salad (because, yes, I sometimes lie about whether or not there is chicken in my salad to get more chicken), I was given this cute little cup of chicken (see photo). Cute is to describe baby chicks, not to describe the chicken portion that I am given at a salad bar. Salad itself was ok. I ordered the Thai salad with the curry coconut dressing. Again, small scoops of toppings. My fav was the blasted broccoli. Wish the curry coconut dressing flavor was stronger but I guess it wouldn't be as healthy. Would rather get a chipotle salad next door or wait for a Tender Greens to open here in Seattle. read more

Evergreens - Cute amount of chicken - Salad Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I love a good salad and Evergreen Salad does not disappoint. The have great options for protein, tuna, chicken, or quinoa. Their menu's are so delicious, I love how they change them every season too! The store is nice and clean with compostable products too. I love eco conscious restaurants. I wish they still had my favorite salad ever "off the hook", but when they change menu's they often still have a lot of the ingredients so if you remember the recipe you can still kinda make it! Plus the names they come up with for recipes are so fun, truly cool and trendy, with a side of bread! Love this place and always will read more

The food was excellent and the place was clean, but the service was not good. It wasn't slow; it was actually the opposite. It wasn't busy, but the lady seemed to hate her job and it's redundancy so much that she didn't look up at me, went through the motions at 10x speed and didn't even give me an opportunity to think about what I wanted to put in my bowl. I've never experienced something like that before and it was so unpleasant. I did not enjoy my experience. read more

We randomly came here for lunch and were pleasantly surprised with our visit! They have all sorts of salads you can choose from or you can make your own. We ordered the El Sombrero and The Situation. You can ask them to leave an ingredient out you don't want. You can also ask for dressing on the side, which I thought was nice. It was really fast moving, just like chipotle. The staff was SUPER friendly, which made the experience even better. Salads overall were pretty good! They were definitely fresh, had a good amount of ingredients and good flavor. Mine came with a cilantro lime dressing, I didn't love it but that's my own opinion. Other than that, they were great. Our lunch was under $20 and we were both full. We did not add protein to our salads, I think it would've been $3 extra for each. We didn't feel it was needed after we ate. The salads are pretty good size. I would definitely come back. It's nice to have fast and lighter options in the village! read more

Interior Design --- menu design/interior design folks get big props- very nice signs and tables/chairs layout of store. +Solid Salad Ingredients +Solid selection on menu +Free bread option for salad, Filtered Water.. +Kids portion menu ---------- -Not so clear line queue -Lack of amount of said ingredients in salad, i.e, two pieces of tomato in a salad that says includes tomatoe(s) - Customer Service.. not so much- a bit lackluster but may have been the time of the day I went by.. I love to eat salad, Evergreens is a great place to sit and chow down on a light lunch. The options for getting a wrap may have been better or another salad choice but given price and the amount of food may... have to think about if I will go back again. read more

The salad dressing wasn't overly sugary or salty either, which I like a lot. It was also a giant wrap so I couldn't even finish it all. read more

$3 for 3 oz of steak....clarify that BEFORE I pay please. 2 stars because I put in an online order with steak and they forgot the steak. My bf picked up the order so we only discovered the mistake when he got home and I was about to eat. I drove the 20 min back to the restaurant and they gave me steak....but only 3 oz. it has cost me an hour now to make up for the incompetency. If I had known they give so little steak I would've saved myself the hassle. Will not be returning. read more

This place was great wasn't sure what to expect. Wish I had one closer to me. They did rush us pretty fast through the line but I'd return.

They don't mix in the dressing anymore because they don't want to hire a dishwasher. Shame on them!

I like salads with my meats. I'm not the person to just order a salad, but because I had classes the rest of the day I didn't want to induce a food coma. So I turned to the alternate of Chipotle of the "tree-huggers" Chipotle. I really liked the salad! Even though I ordered a small, it was enough that I was feeling full, but a good full. It was $9 for the sombrero which I added chicken to, but that scoop of chicken was not justified for $3. Now I know a company with several locations is hard to ask for a justification, but that made me really upset knowing that the kind of chicken that is usually in the high school cafeteria's chicken bar is an extra $3. Disclaimer: I love my meats, so maybe it could just be me who just needs to not choose a salad restaurant buttttt I'd like to think $3 for a scoop of chicken is just kinda ????. Despite the lettuce and it's taste, I hope that the experience at Evergreens isn't always like what I experienced, or else I could see a lot of people choosing the QFC salads. The line was long at 1:45pm but not because there were many people, but because there's one person scooping all the ingredients you want. Note, this isn't Chipotle or any heating up place where you have to wait to have your food adjusted. You just wait because there's only one person who can make a salad for many people- so I waited while he's starting up another person's salad, and finishing up the person's salad before me. Shortly after, you're moving along the lines of the sauces and the next person who then displaces your salad onto a cutting board, to get crushed, and to add the sauce. BUT, while waiting for my turn at the sauces, the cashier curtly signaled that she was ready to ring me up. It's confusing because it's a line, but because they take so long to make the salad, they want you to pay for it and basically go back in the line- it was confusing for my first time. It took 15 minutes to get the $13.29 small salad- those numbers seem bigger than they should be. (+Optional garlic bread mmm) read more
