The love-- omg never felt so seen by a salad chef! Tivo is the star of this place, walk in and get red carpet treatment. But the whole team is dedicated and happy to be there. My order has always been custom salad with so much TLC from their team. This location always has the freshest ingredients. No dried up or overcooked items. Consistently best salad in the neighborhood-- and I'm a salad addict. read more

I think that this is legitimately the worst food delivery meal that I have ever gotten in my life. Like it was so bad it is almost funny. I ordered one of their Market Plate dinners. The one where you build your own. It was crispy chicken with black lentils, and then two sides. One with sweet potatoes and hot honey and goat cheese and another with chickpeas and Fata. What I got were a few pieces of ancient desiccated chicken, little teeny, teeny tiny pieces, resting on top of a bed of uncooked black lentils. And please let me stress this. They were dried lentils, like if you go to the market and you buy a bag of dried lentils that you cook at home? That is what the chicken was on top of. And then one of the sides was two small pieces of sweet potato, and a very large ice cream soup size of feta cheese, and then where the chickpeas were supposed to be was this green sludge on which was a lot of feta cheese. My take on this is that they were closing , or maybe were closed, maybe? But instead of calling me and telling me that, the most recent hire in the company was put in charge of making this and having it sent to me. I tried calling, but there was no answer. My delivery guy waited there for about 15 minutes for the food and in fact sent me a picture of a completely empty restaurant. I tried calling them and just as I did he finally arrived. I just cannot believe how bad what I got was because, again legitimately, I have never gotten a food delivery order this bad. Because again, Uncooked lentils. They served me uncooked lentils. read more

5 stars! Just Salad is hands‑down the best -- fresh ingredients, fast service, and consistently great quality. And Tivo makes every visit better. He's always friendly, welcoming, and genuinely cares about the customers. It's rare to find service like that. Highly recommend! read more

This is not a safe place to order lunch from during the week. Unless you are here in person with 30 minutes to spare, I'd avoid it like an empty subway car in July. It has nothing to do with the lines. They can be very long but even with no line or if you order hours in advance, it's a roll of the dice whether your food will be ready. Today my numbers didn't come up. After a customer service call, at least I'll be getting a refund. Anyway, if you're looking for a quick spot to grab a healthy lunch, keep looking. Thankfully there are plenty of options nearby. read more

Can get really crowded during the week since it's close to a couple major hospitals, but overall good service and decent pricing! Love the salads here. read more

This company offered me a credit to try their food again. This time I got a vegetarian salad and was pleased!

This is a delicious salad! I also really appreciate the really friendly, helpful salad guy. Will be back! read more

First thing I noticed is how clean this store is. Great job from the staff for taking pride in the store and making it look great. I went with the kale caesar but I added a bunch of extra stuff to it. Every ingredient tasted fresh and worked well in the salad. You can be in and out of this place pretty quickly. For the price you also get a good portion and will leave full. The one thing that is interesting is the drink selection is all weird brands that I never heard of. No big deal but I just want a poland spring! In a city full of quick service spots this place does it right. read more

Good salads but they don't mix the bowls well. As I was eating my chicken caesar salad, I was wondering where the chicken was. I found it with most of the parmesan at the bottom of the bowl. About the service, I placed my order through their app but when I arrived to pick it up, they couldn't find it. The transaction didn't go smoothly but the quickly remedied it by preparing my order on the spot. read more

Just Salad - Caesar chicken salad - Salad Near Me - New York, New York

Ordered salads here from Meal Pal multiple times. From the selection of vendors on MealPal, I am a big fan of Just Salad. I've tried different salad bowls and wraps - Thai Chicken Salad, Buffalo Chicken Salad, Sweet Mama Salad (has turkey bacon), Buffalo Chicken Wrap. I feel healthy eating the salads here. The greens and dressings are good. The chicken is good. It's about a scoop of meat mixed in the salad. I don't really eat too much meat so it's just the right amount for me. The inside of the Buffalo Chicken Wrap is the same ingredient as the salad, just that it is in a wrap. I'm not a wrap fan although it is easy to eat on the go. They have soups here also, which are actually surprisingly good. I've had the pea soup and pumpkin bisque soup (in season), which are really good. I think these are seasonal soups so not regularly on the menu all the time. The price for the soups are comparable to other soup places, $4 for a small, $6 for a large. The customer service I experienced when picking up my pre-ordered salad has been fantastic. It's ready when I come in to pick it up. I just go to the register and ask about my order and don't have to get in the line to select a salad. They have a pre-ordered salad pickup station also right next to the register. Quick and easy. read more

This was my first time getting a salad from Just Salad and it was utterly delicious! I never knew how fun salads could be, but these are the salads to eat! The crispy chicken poblano??

Used to be better but still a good experience. I'm not sure what happened to just salad as a result of COVID, but they've definitely changed their operation. They seem to have moved more toward a "bowl" world rather than a salad world - in other words, they are no longer "Just Salad" and that's a shame. For example - Just Salad no longer has mushroom slices as an option to add to a salad. They have balsamic glazed mushrooms if you wish - but honestly, I don't want balsamic mushrooms in my salad. Sometimes, I just want fresh mushrooms. Why they would eliminate this, I will never know. This particular location had less seating than it did precovid and the staff looked kind of out of sorts. Like they were completely overwhelmed. If anyone from "Just Salads" is reading this, please restore your pre-COVID menu because the place was doing much better in those days and the selections were far more plentiful. Return to norm soon before you go out of business. Ok - I didn't hate my experience, hence the three stars - I just sincerely preferred my earlier experience to what I saw this time. I don't know that I would come back with any excitement. read more

Overall, Just Salad is a decent place to grab a salad. Bring your reusable bowl, which you can purchase for $1 and get 2 free toppings or 1 premium topping each time you come with a bowl. Bring your own fork, too! The company has sustainability goals related to making zero waste and reducing plastic use through the reusable bowl program, and I applaud and support these efforts. If you also are aiming to be a little more green, following are some tips: if you are going to eat in, tell them you are staying so that you don't need a plastic cover. If you are buying a salad to go and are walking a few blocks away, then you may not need a paper bag that you use for only 2 minutes. In short, happy eating green and being green! read more

Best healthy lunch option in UES area. Cheaper and more filling than Sweetgreen, fresher and healthier than Dig Inn, and heartier than Little Beet. Also has fresh and clean interior with nice seating read more

Just your typical salad bar. Girlfriend and I had it to go and picked the warm chicken with goat cheese and she tried the sweet potato version. Overall, salad was pretty bland and a bit expensive for what we received. Place did not have the mushroom balsamic and we substituted with the broccoli cauliflower. Definitely try the pablano/chipotle sauce? Was tasty and would recommend. read more

Two days ago, I ventured out to Manhattan from Queens. I stumbled on the restaurant, " Just Salad" It was my 1st time in Just Salad restaurant. I was served by a very sweet young man by the name of Tivo. He made me a very delicious bowl of vegan salad. It was one of the best salad I've had. Thumbs up and hands down the best. Thank you Tuvo. read more

I always come to this just salad and love everyone's service. However, this particular experience I had Tivo take care of me and he was exceptional.

He handled all of my 5 orders perfectly, the food came out perfect in a timely fashion all while being super friendly. read more

WORST SERVICE IN NYC. These people pride themselves on being hostile. The salad was WAY under-dressed. I ask for a second (sitting outside and go in). Rude sullen woman barks: "You'll have to pay for that." So I get out a dollar. This chick hasn't fulfilled her horrible woman /c*** on customers quota for the day clearly. So she barks out with a level of "I hate my life anger" that should make some New York record book: "No cash!" They charged my card 89 cents. Probably cost a third that to run the thing. Skip this location. Midtown East is a delight. read more

Talk about Excellent Service!! What an amazing staff they have here, starting from the management team they are the best. I go there at least 2-3 times week and its always a pleasant experience with the entire team. We need more places like this. Keep it up :). Shout out to MAYA for great customer service while making my salad exactly how I wanted it. Ambiance is nice, they are really quick you are never waiting long. Salads is always so good.

I was just at this location and my experience was awful. There were 6 people behind the counter. Only one was taking order. One other person appeared to be restocking and not sure what the other 4 we're doing. When I finally got to the counter to pay one other person was there making drinks. There were 2 people chatting and when I asked if I could pay for my order the woman making the drink for someone rudely file me I had to wait. I've been to this location before a few times and the service is always like this. Slow and rude. I won't be going back. read more

Healthy lunch option around NYP but way too expensive. To order, you first choose a vegetable base, then four toppings and then a dressing. The toppings aren't labeled though, making it hard to tell what some toppings are. I would say the service is ok. It wasn't bad but I feel like they could be nicer. I got the kale with a hard boiled egg, cucumbers, buffalo chicken, avocado, and balsamic vinegar dressing. The kale was really dry! I had such a hard time swallowing it in the beginning! Even though the server chops the salad and mixes the ingredients for you, still mix everything adequately before eating to ensure that the kale isn't too dry!! After mixing, the kale became edible and actually tastes pretty good. I thought the toppings really mixed well together and everything was really tasty! This is definitely a healthy and tasty place to grab lunch around NYP but it is just way too expensive! My salad ended up costing $12+ which is ridiculous. I honestly don't know if I'll be back. The other food places around the area aren't that good but having to fork over $12+ for a salad is just ridiculous ya know?? read more

Had a delicious lunch at Just Salad and was greeted by Tasha Roman who was extremely customer service oriented. We were greeted with her friendly smile and Tasha went to the max to ensure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. I wish I ran into Tasha's everywhere I went like the bank and the pharmacy. The world would be a better place to live if there were more Tasha's! Our salads were delicious with the variety of choices that were offered and the great service we got from Tasha S.

I was a very loyal customer of Just Salad but I will never again eat at Just Salad. After messing up 2 online orders over the past few months, I quit ordering from them online and only started ordering in-person. The other night I finally built up the courage to give their online-ordering service another chance. I have never been more disappointed in quality and customer service. They delivered my "salad" without lettuce and refused to refund me (or at least provide a full credit) due to their system error. I paid $17.36 expecting to receive a full salad and only received my salad toppings (see pic attached). After multiple unanswered calls and emails, they remediated the situation by giving me a $10 credit for the missing lettuce -- explaining to me that they cannot refund me for just 1 missing item (even though lettuce is the main ingredient in a salad). They are effectively charging me $7.36 for a small portion of olives, apples, cranberries, lentils and goat cheese -- an order I would have never placed. I understand that restaurants sometimes get orders wrong, but to consistently mess up orders and then not make it right with the customer is truly disgusting. Save yourself the trouble and go across the street to sweetgreen or walk a few blocks to Chopt. read more

I just wanted to say that I went to pick up my food which unfortunately someone hungrier than me decided to take. Shout out to Gloria who immediately noticed and helped me out. While another employee was making my (very tasty) salad, yet another employee asked if they could help me. &&&& they were super busy. Very grateful & just plain full :) read more

The salads themselves are pretty good. And there are plenty of options to choose from, from preset combinations to make your own. You can choose the salads chopped or whole, decide which dressing goes on there, and there is an assortment of decent ingredients to mix in there. It's definitely fresh, and (usually) fast. Sometimes it takes a while for your salad to be ready, especially if the person ahead of you orders 4 salads to go. In any case, this place is a take out place. You can eat in, but the fluorescent or LED lights are a bit white and harsh. Plenty of space. The front end is a juicery, so if you want to combine your healthy meal with a healthy drink, I guess it's right there! Pricing for a salad is generally around $10. Not bad! read more

I've walked by here many times and never tried it out because my boyfriend is allergic to vegetables. So today, while he was at work, I decided to give it a go. I love it!!! They give you a LOT of salad and everything was fresh. I love that their meat/seafood is sustainable/antibiotic free. I particularly liked the custom salad option and price wasn't too bad ($11 total for mine). The salad is so big I ate it for lunch AND dinner. I'm not sure why all the bad reviews about service, I had no trouble with mine. Will be coming here often during the summer! read more
