If you know, you know... this spot is tucked right into the Encanto neighborhood and is part of that whole McDowell strip that's quietly becoming a go-to for good eats This place is SUCH a vibe when you want something quick, fresh, and actually satisfying--especially when Phoenix is doing what Phoenix does and it's 100+ degrees outside Think fully customizable bowls and salads with tons of clean, feel-good ingredients. I loaded up on tofu, greens, edamame, and all the crunchy toppings and it hit every note--fresh, flavorful, and filling without feeling heavy. They also have a solid lineup of house-made dressings (pro tip: don't skip those ). Huge win for my plant-based friends --plenty of vegan options and super easy to build exactly what you want. It's not a sit-down-and-linger type of place--it's your "I need something quick but still healthy and delicious" go-to. And honestly? That's exactly why I keep coming back. Repeat customer for a reason . read more

Great late lunch/early dinner at Mad Greens. We had the MADiterraneam Bowl with Tofu and the PanchoVilla Salad with Tofu. Both were delicious. This is our old location and it was fun stopping in again since we were on this side of town. New employees for us but same great service and the place looks great and well taken care of. Hibiscus unsweetened tea hit the spot and instantly quenched our thirst. Thank you Mad Greens for always being so reliable with awesome selections, great taste and wonderful service. We have always loved how the location looks on the inside, clean, tidy, eclectic and a cute little shared outside courtyard. We also got to use the last of our Christmas time gift cards we purchased while Mad greens was running their promotions. $$ Terrific!!! read more

Our diet had been lacking vegetables lately, so we decided to try a salad place for dinner. We ordered the Green Machine Wrap, which was vegetarian and included hand chopped romaine, lemon herb grilled organic tofu, crumbled feta, fresh avocado, cucumbers, green onions, and house made green goddess dressing wrapped in a spinach tortilla. The wrap was surprisingly hearty even though it did not have much meat, and it was visually appealing because of all the green ingredients. I had half of the wrap and it was enough to fill me up. We also ordered the Siam I Am Salad, which was vegan and came with spinach, kale, cooked quinoa, lemon herb grilled organic tofu, shredded carrots, green onions, shelled edamame, and house made ginger soy dressing. It typically includes crunchy sunflower seeds, but they had run out, so I chose pecan praline as a substitute. The sweetness surprisingly worked well and helped balance the overall flavor of the salad. Overall, the meal was very satisfying, and I felt very healthy eating such a clean meal. read more

I've been here before and do enjoy the salads. It's nice that fast food salad places are becoming a thing, but I do wish it could be less expensive. My friend and I walked in around 615-630 on a Thursday night to order food to go. No one else was in line when we arrived. The restaurant was clean and stocked, and there was an outdoor area for seating too. Everyone working was nice. I decided to try the mangocado salad size small and my husband ordered the cowboy cookout steak salad. They were both good, just pricey. read more

This place is my newest obsession, only tried this salad and it's delicious. I get heavy dressing, no cheese substitute for edamame. Ambiance was empty and clean, service was attentive and nice. I will be getting this salad over and over again, just wish it was cheaper but worth it! read more

I came here during lunchtime to get a salad to go. I ordered the Don Quixote salad which tasted fresh and flavorful. The salads are a bit pricey. The parking lot was super busy and I barely got a spot. There was no line in the restaurant to order though. read more

Ordered for lunch today, haven't tried this place before. I had the Cobb salad and a Topo-Chico. Overall the salad was good, I did order it with medium dressing mixed in. Was a good choice on my part. I hate mixing in my own dressing as I feel when I get it on the side it's never enough . This was perfect! I also ordered a regular size which was perfect for lunch. I'll def order lunch here again. My only complaint is the water isn't screw top so I had to hunt down a bottle opener in the office. read more

One of the best salad places I've gone to. The salads are very unique. My favorite is the Don Quixote. It is always clean in here and they have a good amount of seating options. The salads are a little pricey but the food has always been fresh. The staff are friendly. The only thing I dislike is the parking lot is small, nothing they can control however. It can be chaotic during lunch time. read more

Wow. Such good value!! Really enjoyed my build your own salad. Vegan protein options, yummy hummus, good portions. And great outdoor seating area (inside available as well.) service was efficient. Would be here all the time if I lived in PHX. read more

Ordered dinner to our hotel via grub hub. Was thankful to find a healthy option. The food is fine. Underwhelming. Portions are very small! For a bowl of mac I would expect more than 1/4 of the bowl to be filled. But perhaps that's just me. The kids Mac was a larger portion then the adult, so get that one. Paid extra for extra dressing, not included. The wraps did need it. Healthy option, not healthy for your bank account. But great concept. Kids approved. read more

I loved the food and the selections and the ease of ordering the food! It was delicious and I will definitely return. The staff was helpful and friendly as well. My only complaint is the price for the size of the salad. I pay less than te hat MAD Greens charges at most other places and the salad is bigger. read more

My salad was delicious. The service today on December 7 was top notch. The music was too loud. But a lot of people like that.

Thought I'd try a 'create your own wrap' instead of the risky southwest grain bowl. . Romain lettuce, mixed greens, wanton strips, celery, cheddar, carrots, grilled chicken and a spinach tortilla with cilantro chili lime sauce. Never again. One half had 3 tiny bits of chicken and the rest was lettuce rind, celery and a bit of shredded carrot, aaaaand, way too much chili lime sauce - it was pretty much inedible. The other half was sadly the same. Foul. I'm done now. Thank you for teaching me to not be so lazy and to make my own food in the future. read more

Feeling nostalgic about Souplantation of the 90's on a semi date with a female. Mad Greens would be my 1st choice to take a female on a date! You cannot screw up with their variety of choices from salads, grain bowls and mac & cheese. They even have a good choice of independent sodas on tap(Root Beer). For around $12, I choose the Elote Mac & Cheese with house grilled chicken and creamy ginger sauce on the side. They use bowtie pasta. Not a meat eater, you can let the friendly staff know and you can ask to replace it with something else. You can't go wrong taking your date here! Lots of seats to chat and gossip. read more

$13 for a half filled chicken wrap should be a crime. There were literally 7 small pieces of chicken and about 50 cents worth of lettuce in this wrap. Absolutely nothing like what's presented in the photos and seriously lacking in flavor. This place is a joke. Never again. read more

first time on a sunday afternoon, store was empty and no line. i asked the girl up front some recommendations and they were quick to answer. food was amazing and the best suggestion. i got the elote mac and a mad salad. a bit pricy but was worth it. the only thing i was would was that the table i sat on was a bit dirty but nothing major. amazing will be back. read more

Great place for a business lunch, nice ambiance. I really enjoy all of their bowls. Need help deciding just ask for suggestions, they are great. read more

I got the southwest bowl a few days ago while out on errands. The salad didn't have enough dressing and the rice was hard at some points, which is honestly a dental disaster if someone isn't paying attention. They didn't put the other half portion of avocado since I asked for avocado instead of grilled chicken so I didn't get the actual correct amount of avocado that should come in it. Overall, could have been better for sure with it being so expensive. It wasn't that busy either so it was fairly quiet in the shop. read more

Absolutely awful experience at Mad Greens. I'm not sure what was worse--the wilted, soggy lettuce, the bland, uninspired toppings, or the staff who clearly didn't want to be there. My "custom" salad was thrown together with zero care, half the ingredients were missing, and what I did get tasted like it had been sitting out all day. To top it off, the place was filthy. Tables hadn't been wiped, the floor was sticky, and the drink station looked like a science experiment gone wrong. I've had better salads from gas stations. Never going back. read more

Fast, easy and healthy. Really like this place and recommend to anyone who's looking to eat clean.

Id love eat for salad bowl For good healthy lunchtime with drink this afternoon and Evening

The food was amazing The employees were also attentive and informative and pleasant will be back

The ambience is great and the food is even better. The service was spot on. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quaint spot to have lunch or dinner. read more

Total rip off. A large salad for $13 and was nothing but a lot of Romain and a sprinkling of veggies

The food is healthy,fresh and delicious. We were out for lunch and wanted something different and this place came right in on target. Walk up and order with fast service. read more

I only had 45 minutes for a lunch break, and a friend had recommended Mad Greens that morning, so I popped in. Ordered the Baja Shrimp grain bowl to go. Very tasty! It had 5 good sized shrimp, avocado, mango, spinach, red onion, tortilla strips, and cotija cheese . If I order this again, I'll skip the red onion. Shrimp and mango have mild flavors, and the onion overwhelmed them. Many interesting choices. I definitely will go back. The employees were friendly, and greeted me with a smile. Mad Greens is in a strip mall with several other small restaurants, so parking is tight. The restaurants share a patio. read more

Great place! the manager Victoria was very sweet accommodating to my dietary restrictions

This place has my heart , soul, and everything in between. The food here is soo freaking delicious and portion/price is really the best. I find it hard to eat healthy since the cleaner food is typically bland, but this place has become my solution. Love , love , love MAD Greens! read more

Just ordered off of UberEats. We got the Caesar and Greek salads. We got the regular size, which goes for $11.50 but is the size of a Safeway grab n go salad that goes for at least half the price. Honestly, we would have been better off going to Safeway. The Caesar dressing had the viscosity and taste of mayonnaise. I understand they contain similar ingredients but nothing about the dressing rang Caesar to me. The Greek dressing was better but on both salads the tomatoes were mushy, the lettuce was browning, and seemed unwashed. We had to order from somewhere else. read more

Used to love it but it's all over now. High fat salads and high prices. No longer a fan.

Location; SouthEast McDowell and 7th ave - has to be the worst parking lot ever - not enough spots for as busy as this shopping strip needs. Food; ordered a "Siam I am" salad - instead of tofu got chicken which was a little fatty and dry but packed with fresh greens - tons of quinoa, edamame and peanuts - I should have gone without meat and salad would have been perfect. Upon arrival was greeting immediately and he was super friendly. read more

We stopped in here after I had a really stressful day and my partner told me we would pick up food from anywhere I wanted. I have been craving the Don Quixote with shrimp, so he quickly made his way to 7th Ave. Perfect salad. I got the Mad Spice on my avocado and boy was it delicious. The spicy mouth burn slowed down my quick eating and helped me to savor the meal that much more. I like how they cut down the giant leaves so they aren't the size of my face and cover my nose with dressing every time I take a bite (this may or may not happen frequently with homemade salads). I appreciate how hearty this meal was with the pine nuts, corn, and avocado which really nicely compliments the shrimp. Yum. Love this spot. Can't wait to hit them up again soon! read more

I thought I found a good new place to get some healthy greens. But was i wrong! I ordered a wrap with southwest chicken. It tasted good, BUT as I'm chewing and driving, I thought I was chewing on the roasted red peppers I replaced the tomatoes with. Something wasn't right so I pulled over, on the freeway, to check it out and it was RAW CHICKEN! On top of that, there was yellow chicken fat on the chicken. They must buy the discounted chicken. After calling to ask for a refund, the employees were rude and laughing on the phone about me getting my money back and kept questioning me about me name. She also told me that the chicken was cooked this morning... I was there about 7:40pm tonight. I will NEVER go there again, except to get my refund tomorrow. No wonder it was empty! I hope I don't get sick! read more

My go-to favorite is the Poe but I'll also take an Oakley. Except recently, I am more infatuated with the grain bowls. I don't know what they put in there but I'm pretty sure it's 100% certified organic love. The combination of flavors and textures just make my taste buds sing and my tummy happy. I'm also a massive fan of the salted caramel cookie; sorry if you thought you were going to be healthy today - life is short, eat the food you want and stop with that negative self-talk nonsense. read more
