Good if you're looking for something that feels healthier. Wasn't the biggest fan of the crispy chicken, I think the roasted chicken would be a more substantial-feeling protein option. The smoothies aren't overly sweet, although the taste of the protein powder in the acai one isn't the best. Ordering is similar to that of Chipotle or other setups like that, where you start at the far end of the counter and move down to the register as they make your salad/wrap/bowl. Inside is very brightly lit and located within walking distance of the university. read more

Just Salad got this special? Down pat. Looks like I got a two random iHot Honey Harvest but not heated up and not a lot of honey. For 5.99+ for what apparently goes for 12.49+ basically, an awesome deal too. :) I loved it. Very appropriate for upcoming Thanksgiving and didn't have to be. And seemed pretty healthy just like the name. Staff was efficient and friendly. read more

Just Salad - Hot Honey Harvest - Salad Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

My 3rd time eating here. It's convenient to lunch, since I work nearby. They do tend to get really busy during the lunch hours, so I normally will place my order through the app and pick up. Very convenient! I like to build my own salad, but they do also have premade salad bowls, wraps, smoothies, chips / sweets and drinks! The store itself is a bit small, BUT there is still seating for those who want to eat there. I recommend signing up with the app and place an order, you get a free smoothie! read more

I got there about 30 min before closing and they were totally okay with me ordering a smoothie! The guy taking orders was awesome; super friendly and polite, and listened to my request for the PB smoothie with no agave. Give this guy a raise The place was super clean as well! 5/5 read more

Okay salads with quick service. Just Salad has many menu options and their bowls are cheaper than sweetgreen (although not as filling). This location is rarely busy so it's easy to get a quick bite at. read more

Just Salad - Tokyo Supergreens, Tofu - Salad Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Super yum! I loved my buffalo cauliflower salad, and it's an easy walk to and from CHOP. Definitely want go to back here!

I ordered from Just Salt for lunch via UberEats because I wanted to try something different than the usual Sweetgreen or Honeygrow. This place is definitely a nice alternative and their seasonal menu was particularly interesting to me. The meal was expensive but tasty. My main complain stems from the fact that it was poorly packed and did not travel well. I would be curious to see how the experience is in person. My salad also had too much dressing on it, but that was my fault for ordering it mixed in. I would avoid the avocado toast. While it had plenty of avocado and great toppings, it was just soggy by the time it got me and the toast could have been a little more well done. I'm giving them 4 stars because they offer something interesting and the food was not bad. I will only eat here again if I go in person. read more

Great place for a healthy meal! Such a huge variety of salads and grain bowls plus you can create your own. They also have smoothies, soups and avocado toast. We've been here a few times and have had everything but a smoothie and a grain bowl. It was all delicious. Impressed that the items that are listed as spicy do have a nice kick. Only qualm is the inconsistency of the level of dressing mixed into salads. You can order light, medium, or heavy; however, depending on who you get medium can be heavy and light can be medium so there's room for improvement on that. Also, it sucks that this location is closed on the weekend. Otherwise, this place is great! Will return and do recommend ! read more

Just Salad - Chicken Shawarma Salad, Crispy Chicken Poblano Wrap & Chicken Poblano Soup - Salad Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Came here for their grand opening $2 event and it was amazing! The line was down the block, wrapped around the corner but it moved pretty fast. Also, there were plenty of people who came by with free reusable salad bowls, tote bags, Instagram photo frames and stickers to keep us occupied so it was totally fine. Came during the noon lunch rush and waited 50 minutes in order to get inside - once we were inside, everything was super fast though. I got the Tokyo Supergreen Salad with tofu and it was great! The thing that stood out the most was how fresh the avocado was - stood out from all the other ingredients and I was shook. Where do they get their avocados and can I get some? I guess it just speaks to their quality of ingredients because you can truly taste the difference. Initially, the miso dressing was a little strong (not mixed enough) but after mixing it a little more, it was perfect. So many more options than Sweetgreen, tastes better, fresher and for me (home base is 40th and spruce) about the same distance away so I'm going to opt to come this way for lunch more often. I docked a star because I came back two days later for their Smoothie Happy Hour (50% off every day in April from 3-6 PM!) and my smoothie (Berry's wild) was lukewarm... I saw the barista put ice in so I don't really understand, but smoothies m u s t be cold. At least in my book. Great hip place, salads aren't that expensive and for how fresh the ingredients are, definitely well worth it. Other menu items are a little steep imo but I've never been one to purchase avocado toast at a store and would rather make it myself (personal preference). Their social media game is on point too. Definitely coming back here with my reusable salad bowl to make my own! PS: tried to make an online order cuz a dude was handing out "$5 off first online order" flyers in front of the gym but they didn't even have this location online.. so how am I supposed to put in an online order ? -.- read more

I ordered a salad online for pickup. It was a Thai chicken salad, and it contained no chicken. They also gave me a lemon instead of a lime. The vegetables were fine, but I paid for chicken. read more

I had some wraps and the Autumn Caesar Salad catered for a work lunch and was excited from the simple and clean presentation of the packaging. Sadly, the attention to detail stops there. I strongly believe that a salad is not a meal (fine as a side) so I went for a wrap. I had the California wrap and mostly had mouthfuls of romaine lettuce. Feeling unsatisfied and still hungry I picked up the tofu banh mi wrap and a heaping serving of salad as well. Incredibly, this wrap was worse than the first. It was a whole wheat wrap filled with 90% raw carrot, 5% raw cucumber, and 5% tofu and some sprinkled furikake with no sauce or other flavor. It was so awful and rabbit food-esque that I tossed it after a couple bites. Maybe stay true to your name, stop throwing vegetables into tortillas and marketing them as wraps, and stick to just salad. Though even then the one I had was mediocre at best. I'm off to have a slice of cake now because I am still hungry after the triple disappointment and I just need something that won't let me down. read more

My experience at this location was just so-so. I was meeting a friend for lunch and while it met all of our needs (we just wanted something fast and casual on Penn's campus), I left underwhelmed. I walked in at about 11:50am on a Friday and it was completely empty. Since my friend wasn't going to arrive until noon and I was a few minutes early, I figured I would just browse through the menu and wait until she got there. Little did I know that just a few minutes later, the place would be packed. It seemed like all of their customers were making a quick stop in during their lunch break from work or school. My friend and I had only allotted one hour to meet and in an effort not to waste any time, I figured I would just jump in line then before it kept piling up. I ordered the Barbacoa Market Bowl which comes with chicken barbacoa, warm brown rice, Brussels and kale slaw. It sounded great on the menu and the friendly waiter told me that it has a bit of kick to it -- perfect, that's exactly what I wanted. Just a few moments were spent to prepare my bowl and to process my order so the entire process was fast and easy. The Barbacoa Market Bowl itself was just alright. The chicken was good, the rice was warm just as suggested, and the Brussels were fresh, but honestly, the bowl was flavorless. It had no kick to it whatsoever. Putting the underwhelming food aside, I was content with the layout of the restaurant, prices and staff. Everything was kept clean and tidy, and the staff was nice. For roughly $10, I left content without that uncomfortably full feeling. Would I return? Possibly. Although it wouldn't be my first choice, I do like the fact that it's a healthy and easy option for a lunch meeting spot in University City. read more

Just Salad - Barbacoa Market Bowl - Salad Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I had a very interesting experience here. I was thinking about ordering an ahi tuna salad and getting it delivered but I'm glad I didn't! When I walked in, the workers didn't seem thrilled to be doing their job which is understandable, but I also was the only customer in the store so I would expect at least a little bit of customer service. Then, they said they were out of the tuna so I decided to do a pick two with a salad and smoothie. The menu is very misleading as it says that the steak is only $1 extra, but they mean that specific steak salad on their menu is $1 to the combo, not adding steak on the build your own. To add steak is $4 and when I got to the register and explained my misunderstanding they didn't say anything except this is how it is, so I ended up paying $4 for salad. The salad and smoothie itself were freaking delicious. You get to add 3 toppings for free and the green goddess dressing is so good, so overall it hit the spot for craving a salad and the price was actually great for what I got. I'm giving it 3 stars because of the experience, but if you can get past that the food is great. read more

Just Salad - BYO salad and Berry Wild Smoothie! - Salad Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I want to preface this by saying I am not the type to give a bad review; in my year of using yelp I've given very few bad reviews, if any. That being said, I've been to this location of Just Salad twice now, and I've had a horrible service experience both times. First experience: I had never been there and was wondering how do order - the lady was super rude despite the restaurant being practically empty and wouldn't take the time to answer my questions. At the end they give you bread for free and I didn't know so I asked what it was. She looked at me condescendingly and just said "it's bread." After a series of more condescending answers to my questions I just got the salad and left. The salad itself was mediocre - I'd give it a 3/5 for taste itself. Second experience: Penn had a promotion with justsalad where if you bring their re-usable bowl you get two free toppings. I wanted to take advantage of it so I asked if all the toppings were free. The lady said yes. I pointed at the specific topping I wanted - it was a protein - and asked so if I got that it would come with the bowl right? She said yes. Then I also got quinoa which I again asked "so since I get two free toppings with the reusable bowl the topping comes with it right?" She said yes. Then when it came to pay, I was disheartened to find that they had in fact charged me for both the toppings that were supposed to be free. When I brought it up with the lady she just kind of shrugged as if she remembered those toppings weren't included in the promotion. Not wanting to make a scene I just paid and left. I will decidedly not be bringing my service to this location again. If you're craving a good, fresh salad and also good service - take the extra 10 min to walk to sweetgreen. The workers there are super sweet and the ingredients are clearly much fresher. Edit: managers reached out and righted the situation. I was pleased with how they dealt with it. Honestly for the taste itself it's ok; you get what you pay for. Not the best but not horrible in terms of quality either. read more

I ate here for the first time today. I had the Autumn Caesar (seasonal only) and a piece of bread. It comes with romaine lettuce, grilled chicken, croutons, dried cranberries, bartlett pears and shaved Parmesan. I had my dressing put on heavy. The bowel it comes in is big and they fill it up to the top. I felt the sweetness from the cranberries were a perfect mix. I'd definitely come back to try some of their other choices. You can also buy a reusable bowel and get free toppings each time you use it. read more

Great option, IF, they ever had ingredients. For the past two weeks they were out of several of their salad ingredients both veggies and proteins. Today, they were of 50% of their ingredients. It's getting very old. I don't want to hear that its a supply chain issue. There is a grocery store down the street. Take a trip down there, buy that day's missing ingredients and start chopping, cooking etc. or just shut down. I'm tired of pay $12 for a bowl of lettuce with cheese dressing and a crunchy topping. read more

I love it here, the salads are always delicious , it's nothing like a rainy day a movie and some just salads read more

Just Salad - Just sald (university city) - Salad Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Just salad is a fantastic experience if you are looking for real fresh, real fast, real healthy, real tasty salad. I took my Wife and kids here because we were all craving a nice salad. I heard great reviews about this place and they more than met our expectations. There is off street parking that is pretty easy to find after 5 o' clock. The restaurant is easily accessible. The dining area is very clean and comfortable. The staff is very hardworking and courteous. The bathrooms are very clean and well kept. The prices are very reasonable for a fresh salad. I ordered the Chicken Shwarma they ran out of the correct dressing for the Chicken Shwarma. I was a little disappointed but opted for the Ranch which was very tasty. My Son got a Buffalo chicken salad and he said he liked it very much. My wife and Daughter ordered the Classic Chicken Caesar salad and they also enjoyed their meals. I can say that the salads are very fresh. We had zero complaints and had a very nice meal for a reasonable price. Go check them out. read more

I am a frequent flyer of this location. I always enjoy the Crispy Chicken Poblano and Chicken Fajita Warm bowl. I recommend getting one of their reusable bowls and bringing it to every visit as you are able to get a free topping and also help the environment. The staff is also really sweet and helpful. read more

I came back a month ago and ordered a Tokyo Supergreens salad to go. The staff was very speedy with preparing my salad and took my vegan diet into account. I enjoyed my salad at work that night and it was delicious! I loved the tofu and avocado. It was also super filling! I definitely will order this salad again. read more

I was so excited to come here as I really liked this place back when I lived in NYC. Overall I wish I could give it a five star because my harvest salad was AMAZING!!! But there's one little thing that happened that does have to be mentioned :/ My friend found a hair in her salad which is gross. I noted that the workers behind the counter did not have hair nets and I think they should after this experience. However, what just salad did to correct this issue went above and beyond. Not only did they offer to comp her Salad, but the owner offered to make the two of us smoothies and gives us free bags of chips. I thought it was totally unnecessary to give me anything as my salad was fine but the owner wanted the both of us satisfied since we came together. I would recommend this place invests in hair nets but overall I still did like this place read more

Was excited for the Just Salad to open on campus because I had been many times in NYC beforehand. Recs: - 2 for $12 deal - you get to choose two items (I always opt for the smoothie and medium salad). The salad though technically smaller still will fill you up and you can choose any salad. - Barbacoa Market bowl - I prefer this warm bowl over the salads actually because I think there's more flavor. I personally think adding the corn + bean side to the bowl fits really well. - My favoriteeee thing about this place is actually the Avocado Dreamsicle smoothie!! if you're an orange dreamsicle fan this is an awesome alternative and is always satisfying -- extra worth when you get it in the deal Cons: - Though the salads are very classic flavors and don't try to be fancy for no reason, the meat feels very processed to me (it's super cube-like and that makes it less appealing and natural to eat). read more

Solid healthy lunch joint that, despite its name, doesn't sell "just salad." A tad overpriced (thinking of that long ago Tweet from someone that said "Salads. We're $16 now!") But it's true. I mean, you want fast casual organic ingredients, you're gonna pay. Bonus points they offer reusable blue bowls to bring back for your next lunch. I wasn't sure if I'd be back so I just got the standard compostable one. Regardless, it's one of the few healthy lunch options on that stretch of Spruce (the Sweetgreen over on Walnut somehow only does mobile orders now and is always chaotic?) and so I probably will visit back, especially because their Warm Chicken Thigh and Goat Cheese bowl is a close second to Sweetgreen's Harvest Bowl, and that's saying something. Definitely not as big, but an adequate, protein-fueled lunch with really delicious balsamic mushrooms which is a nice added touch. Without a drink or anything else, it was over $10, which is to be expected. Line was longer than I'd care to wait in on my limited lunch hour, but also par for the course these days. read more

First off, the Barbacoa Market Bowl is amazing, *if prepared right*. Unfortunately, that's a big if. Some issues I've faced: - the portion size varies way too much. Sometimes it's filled to the brim of the bowl, sometimes the bowl is barely half-filled. - way too many mistakes. I've had countless visits with issues, most often missing an ingredient in my bowl. Considering the market bowl consists of ~ 4 ingredients, this shouldn't be the case. - poor new employee training. I've had employees literally ask me what goes next in the order. I had to talk him down the line, telling him what goes in the market bowl. He asked me if his scoop of chicken was "the correct amount." Not my job. - the brown rice is sometimes very hard. Either it's undercooked or gotten very dry. It's like having small pebbles in my food. Not fun. train your employees better! make sure everyone knows what goes in a menu item and understands the standard serving size. read more

Stopped by in the afternoon for salads to-go. Ordered the Crispy Chicken Poblano and the Thai Chicken Crunch. Both salads were quite tasty and generous portions that filled us up. Service was fast. Store was clean; area behind the counter with all of the ingredients was clean as well. Definitely recommend for delicious salads! read more

There isn't much to look at in my picture because I got delivery (didn't know Just Salad did that...and now I'm OBSESSED) but I wanted to post a quick review. The Crispy Chicken Poblano Salad is so delicious! The Poblano salad has in it: romaine & kale, breaded chicken, cotija cheese, avocado, mexican quinoa, tortilla chips, topped w/ a smoky poblano ranch dressing. The bowl was filled to the brim and was delivered in a reasonable amount of time. Already looking forward to getting take out again. read more

I have only come here for the smoothie, and both times they are extremely delicious! There is not much for me to comment on other than it's all freshly made and the service is very fast.

So I wanted to be healthy once, okay? I got their Autumn Caesar Salad, which was simple, clean, and filling. It was packed with squash, which is a nice and unique addition to any salad. The service is fast, fresh, and while the salad is a little pricey, you'll feel good about yourself afterwards. It's a great restaurant for a to-go salad. I will definitely be back as needed. read more

I frequent this place at least twice a week, sometimes more. The whole staff is very friendly and helpful. The salads are pretty good sizes and they have several options to choose from. They offer wraps and smoothies as well. Great place to go if you're looking for healthy options! Someone mentioned the prices are a little high, but show me a place these days where prices aren't increasing. I feel the cost is worth the portion. read more

I just got a salad from there and the workers attitude was so bad I almost walked out and left the salad there. I've never encountered such a severe amount of attitude for no reason. Also, I went an hour before closing and they had all of the chairs up and some of them were scrubbing floors and angry that I dared entered during business hours. The salad was also subpar and not worth the attitude or the price. read more

Jerome dyheem gave amazing service, they were so polite , they were vary versed on the products and made my experience even better!! Really fresh and light ! I also had a berry wild smoothie without yogurt and replaced with almond milk !! It was all delish !!!! read more

I am so shocked at the number of low stars on this location. I honestly used to go to the one at chestnut street, but this location was so much closer to me. I am welcomed every time I walk in and everyone works at a fast pace. I am in and out within 5-10 mins, especially with the lunch time rush. The two females Maria, Kat, and Fanny are always very nice and ask how my day is going. When I have a long day and ready to eat, I come here because they are clean, and all the ladies are very nice. Its basically a store ran by females, besides one or two guys working there. I usually get the Thai Chicken salad and the peanut butter smoothie, it tastes so delicious. If you ever are in the area and need a quick lunch or want to sit and eat, this location is great and healthy. Thanks Just Salad!!!!!!!!!!! read more

They have a nice selection of salads and toppings. The dressings are average. I never had the Avocado toast so I cannot write about that. The chicken noodle soup was somewhat flavorful but cold. The wraps are small, expensive and unfulfilling.......you're better off getting a salad. The detox smoothie was 5.99 for 16oz (Starbucks Grande Size) and half of the smoothie was the leftover pulp from the ingredients that was blended. I filled the cup up with water to drink the remaining smoothie particles. Now as far as the service....75% of the time the people who work there have an attitude. I'm not a rude customer. l say please, thank you and I try to smile as much as possible. It's RARE when those courtesies are returned. I try not to take it personally but at this point I don't even like going in there. The level up scanner works 50% of the time. Now one thing I noticed is that there is ALWAYS gnats and flies in the store because they leave the door wide open. All of the ingredients are exposed and there's nothing covering the food. I just thought about it today what if I was eating some fly larvae in my salad? Food for thought..... read more

When I first entered the store,the first thing I noticed was how clean and inviting the atmosphere was. After that, I was greeted by Karen and the rest of the staff. Everyone was so friendly,welcoming and very knowledgeable about the menu because I had several questions. I ordered the Chipotle Cowboy salad and the Berry Wild smoothie. Everything was delicious and fresh. If your looking for a healthy fast food restaurant, this is the place for you! I was very satisfied with the quick service and will be returning soon. read more

Just went to Just Salad for the first to time. Although the food was good the service was "Just Awful" The young lady made mistake after mistake with out a single apology, she actually seemed to act as if her errors were our fault. Oh well there are other Salad places close by. I will try SG next read more

I have to echo the common theme from other reviews and say that the customer service really needs some work. I work on campus so I've been here probably 10 times. I can think of maybe 2 instances where someone wasn't rude to me, a person who is paying for a service. It's almost always the same girl who is rude and acts like helping you is a giant inconvenience to her. She will stop paying attention to you mid order to turn and talk to her coworkers about something that happened last night. If you ask a question about a menu item you are treated as though you are stupid. It makes no difference if they are busy or not, she's still a jerk. The food is ok but not worth being mistreated. I think today will probably be the last time I go here unless I'm desperate at some point in the future. I'd rather pay slightly more and go next door to kitchen gia. They seem to understand how to treat their customers. I hope this doesn't end up costing them their business. They already took a risk by putting a new salad restaurant in the same place a different salad chain didn't work out. read more
