4 stars and up. A qualified best but a great way to eat salad. Dave's Taco Bowl: really good. Bachelor: good but I feel like the meat was mistreated. Light dressing was dry. The Falafel: the warm falafel, avocado, and grilled cauliflower really bring this together read more

MIXT - The falafel - Vegetarian Near Me - Berkeley, California

This place is conveniently located at the bottom of a building which I think gets alot of business during the weekdays at lunch. The mandarin orange salad was incredibly fresh, with crisp greens and juicy mandarin slices that added the perfect touch of sweetness. The flavors were really well balanced--light, refreshing, and not overpowering. What I loved most was how everything worked together. The citrus from the oranges paired beautifully with the dressing, giving it a bright, clean taste that didn't feel heavy at all. It's the kind of salad that feels both satisfying and refreshing at the same time. Definitely a must-try if you're looking for something lighter but still full of flavor! read more

Walked in and was helped after a while which was fine and making the salad was pretty quick. I had to get in and out and I think I was out in under 10 minutes at 1:40pm on a workday. Salad wasn't as fresh as I'd hoped for this price point. Greens are getting soft and thin which is a sign of dehydration. Avocados used are browning as they're pre cut without vitamin C they'll brown. I did like that they sprinkled a little cuts of basil on top of the salad based on the recipe but it was very minimal and a little more would have gone a long way. read more

This review is based on a take out order that I had. It was Jings chili crisp salad with blackened chicken as the protein. The salad was packed full of veggies, bell pepper, edamame, avocado, carrots...i loved the crunch from the wonton crisps! It was delicious and filling. I had some leftover for later. I also liked the crispy cauliflower, they serve it with sriracha ranch, that was green in color and so tasty...I've never had green sriracha? The food is fresh, the portions are hearty and I will return whenever I'm looking to fill up on real food and lots of veggies! read more

MIXT is located in the center of downtown Berkeley on Shattuck. It is tucked into a strip of other businesses and has some outdoor seating that is open to the public. MIXT also has a decent amount of indoor seating. When I walked in, the individuals working the counter were welcoming and friendly. It took a little while to place my order because I went in during the lunch rush. I ordered the Smokey sandwich. For the price, the sandwich was quite small, but it was tasty. The bread was soft, the smokiness was definitely there, and the ingredients tasted fresh. I just wish the price weren't so high for such a small sandwich! I would try MIXT again and maybe order a salad (they looked large!). read more

While I love the Harvest Bowl from sweetgreen, I have a new warm, rice bowl/salad that is my go-to for these hybrid hot/cold days. The Bachan's Bowl from MIXT is heavenly and everything this mom-on-the-run needs. This bowl comes with fried chicken for the protein, which pairs perfectly with the Bachan's Japanese Barbecue Sauce drizzle. There is also avo, edamame, cucumber, radishes, cabbage, arugula, cilantro lime brown rice, and a ginger sesame drizzle...I don't think I left anything out. Chef's kiss! I can't speak to eating at MIXT or the ambiance inside because this location is a bit too hectic for me with parking to eat inside, so I normally just do MIXT on food delivery day/evenings. Even with delivery though my bowl has always been spot on with no missing ingredients and fulfilling to the max. I love this wave of warm bowls made fresh to order because they're so satisfying and filled with lotsa good stuff. You can also design your own bowl or choose from a variety of menu salads, sandwiches, sides, and make sure to grab a choco chip sea salt cookie...delish! Pricing is fair for the quality and quantity ~ would love to eat on location, but Shattuck Ave. doesn't make it easy. Normally I don't review chains, but I appreciate businesses that have a great mission to provide better and to be better nourishing their customers, employees, community, and worldly. read more

$35 for a salad that was mid at best. I'm not even gonna waste characters describing how tragic that "Caesar" was. The chicken? Flavorless. The atmosphere was all vibes, it was Nice. The service? Was good. The salad? Straight-up dumpster. How do you mess up a Caesar?? It's literally lettuce, dressing. Save your coin and your taste buds hit Chipotle or grab a $5 premade from Walmart. at least that one won't break your heart and your wallet. Mixt, I love the aesthetic but c'mon... Do better . If you want an actually good Caesar, go to Mendocino. They understood the assignment. The good salad in Campbell is as well. read more

Favorite salad place in the town. For someone who is trying to eat healthy, there are very few options in the area. So Mixt tops the choice for clean and quality custom salads. read more

I am never a salad person, like ever. However, the Mediterranean Bowl I had here was so delicious, it's literally the only salad bowl I've truly enjoyed. To give some background on how I was convinced to go here: My friend and I were originally looking for a cafe nearby where we could have our interview-esque conversation, but the cafes were extremely busy and crowded or just not convenient. So, we decided to go to Mixt. We had already eaten lunch, but since we were going to sit there, we decided to share a salad - the Mediterranean Bowl. We tried it and eventually fell in love with it. We postponed our activity to enjoy the delicious bowl of salad - totally deserving of 5/5. The texture from the walnuts was my favorite! The variety of flavors in this salad (the sweetness and sourness of the currants, the savory grilled chicken, and the acidity of the pickled red onions) was a great mix. I enjoyed every bite, and I definitely will be coming back! read more

Great variate of salad. Quick, easy, yummy and not expensive! I would totally recommend thid spot!

I have now visited this MIXT location twice. My friend and I came in for free meals during the Berkeley Friends & Family Preview Event, and most recently, I had a reward in the app that was good for $7 off. There are definitely some positives at MIXT. I like the tasty options and the container they use for your salad. I also like that the staff is patient and friendly. It is a solid meal. The reason I'm not a regular is that I feel it is way more expensive than I think is reasonable for a salad that size. I can't imagine a scenario where I would be willing to pay full price here. Even when I have a reward and pay less, I try to make it last for 1.5 or two meals -- which can be tough since the portion is not huge. This time around, I tried the Pacifica Crispy Chicken Bowl. It has quality ingredients: RightRice + cabbage, crispy chicken, cotija cheese, pumpkin seeds, cherry tomatoes, black beans, fresh herbs, cilantro jalapeño vinaigrette, and chipotle honey drizzle. The staff kindly gave me extra dressing when I asked for it. At $13.95 before tax, it isn't too bad -- but it ain't cheap. Several of the salads on the menu are $15.95 or more before tax. This of course does not include adding a cookie or a drink or leaving a tip. Since I make salads at home all the time, it's just hard to feel like MIXT is worth the time and money. read more

Been holding off on trying this place since I typically find it hard to justify spending money on salad, but finally decided to give it a shot. Got Bachan's bowl and I was happily surprised with the portion size and taste. Definitely prefer it over some of the other healthy/salad places around like sweetgreen or Tender Greens. Plus, there's a $5 coupon when you order for the first time so the meal didn't end up being too expensive. I did take out, but the inside is very cute and clean, and the staff is friendly as well. read more

i'd describe this salad bar like a mix of sweetgreen and cava! the interior is a sleek design with plenty of seating. i made my own salad, and i loved the fried cauliflower!! i like how they have unique toppings like caramelized onions and falafel crumbs!! there are so many dressings to choose from as well! it's a big portion, and i like how you can count the calories if you place an order online. it is a shame that the oil seeps through the bowl super easy, so be careful! read more

MIXT - DESIGN YOUR OWN SALAD - Vegetarian Near Me - Berkeley, California

I have ordered from here probably 5 or so times and it has always been really good. I decided to order Thursday July 3rd for dinner. The next morning (yesterday, 4th of July) I woke up with the worst food poisoning. I spent the entire day and night throwing up and in the bathroom. I remembered making a comment about how the "hooked me up" to my husband the night I ordered as there was way more chicken and bacon than usual. There were more toppings than actual lettuce. I was trying to convince myself that it must have been something else that I ate, but the salad was the only possible thing that could have made me as sick as I was and I could see my stomach rejecting it. It will probably take a while for me to convince myself to go back if ever. I'm bummed that I spent $72 on that dinner, then missed the entire 4th of July sicker than ever. Please check dates!!! read more

My go to is the madarin salad very delicious. This time around they seem to have forgotten the oranges which is honestly kind of annoying. I'm paying about 18 dollars for a salad... The overall ambiance of the place is modern and clean. Gets kinda busy during 1pm. read more

Won't let people use the bathroom until they pay even though I got a meal. No respect for customers. Kathy is not a nice person.

The menu looks great, however the beet salad i ordered heavy on the arugula, and not sure if the staff knows what arugula is SUPPOSED to look like, but my salad was full of hard arugula STEMS, they were like little sticks or toothpicks in my salad, and by the time I was halfway thru my salad, I had picked out 20+ of these hard stems! Sorry but that isn't supposed to happen, and IMO that means quality control both from the produce supplier and at the location is like ZERO, not happening. Nor do I believe the manager on duty, who said that was the First Time it ever happened, but didn't even go to inspect the bowl or bag of arugula when I showed her the pile of sticks I'd pulled out of my mouth and salad. I think they just don't give a sh!t. I can't see paying $15 for a salad with sticks in it. Or giving a tip at the counter without knowing the service and attention to quality for what's being served is a good idea anymore. Not going back. read more

It was my first time trying this salad place while being out in Berkeley. While getting my food I noticed some staff members were coughing while preparing the food. I'm sure this is not safe due to staff working so close together and handling food while covering their faces while coughing. If staff is sick, why are they allowed to work? read more

Salads are amazing. Large portions. Definitely will be going back for lunch. Highly recommended

Food was great, wished I could say the same about the customer service. The employees talk to each other in Spanish the entire time as myself and other customers ordered. One person walked out upset since she was not getting her questions answered. I believe there was a language barrier between the employee and the customer. The ambiance is gorgeous and quiet...I would love to eat there again, probably not the Berkeley location. read more

Order straight from their website. It's really good. I've liked all the salads and they make it easy to get the kind of dressing you want and add or eliminate any ingredients. The ingredients seem really good quality to me and their Fried cauliflower is amazing. I get it too much because it's so good. read more

This is my new salad place. I use to go to Tender Greens but they discontinued the Chinese Chicken Salad. It was the best. I decided to try their Mandarin Salad and it was really good. I added avocado and goat cheese. The only thing is parking is a little tough in this neighborhood because it's so close to the college. I think next time, I will try the Oakland one. But this is my new salad place. read more

Just order 3 salads, order of cauliflower, 3 cookies and 3 drinks from MIXT through DoorDash! Darn!!! I didn't receive one of the $21.00 beatnik salads and the cauliflower dish! Such a pain in the neck. The 'dasher' said she asked the restaurant if the order was complete, was told yes and then took the two bags. Obviously MIXT didn't actually check!! No bueno!! read more

Super disappointed. I used to love MIXT. Yesterday, we ordered salads at work. We ordered what we all usually order, BUT when we got the delivery, the salads came in a smaller than usual box and cost the same price. Bummer. Some Shrink-flation???? Not worth 20 bucks when you get a 1/2 an order of salad. Boooooo MIXT! read more

Terrible service, expensive, I really needed to use restroom and was happy to buy something but wouldn't give me code until waiting in line. Terrible service, terrible experience. read more

Their website saved an order from ages ago, and would not let me delete it. I tried starting over several times and it kept ADDING to my order and never letting me delete anything. Or, for that matter, check out! It just kept that circle circling. Until they have a WORKING website, I won't be a customer and won't recommend it to anyone else. read more

The customer service can really use a push, felt unwelcoming, maybe a short staff issue. Place used to be friendly and was in an out. Last time I was there it took long to get my order just to find that it was made wrong. Don't think I'd go back to this location. read more

Unfortunately, our family won't be frequenting this location any longer. After being loyal longtime customers and spending a lot of money there weekly between friends and family, my wife was denied the use of the restroom, simply because she didn't purchase something on this day. To add insult to injury, she was denied in a very dismissive and disrespectful manner. I can appreciate the spirit of their rule, but it's ridiculous that they apply that to regular paying customers. Especially when non-paying customers that never purchase anything simply wait for someone to come out of the restroom and just go in after them, instead of requesting a code. It may sound like a small thing but I am growing tired of these ridiculously inflated prices and the lack of appreciation for those that support these businesses. read more

I seriously hate leaving bad reviews but I hope this gets to someone in management because I genuinely like this place. I ordered from here through Grubhub and I've ordered the same thing manyy times and I always order extra sides of dressing so I can eat this big custom salad in two sittings, the dressings always come in their own containers like every other salad place does. I received my salad and ALL of the extra sides of dressings I paid for were ALL mixed in to the salad so when I received it from the delivery driver the salad was obviously absurdly over dressed, soggy, and inedible. C'mon now y'all For the price of this salad this should be obvious. read more

Really wanted to like this place but I ordered a salad called "Falaf" thinking I'd get a good amount of falafel for $18. I get home to eat and open my bowl to only four little tiny falafal nuggets. 4. For the price I could've gone to one of the great authentic mediterranean places around and gotten a feast for that price. It was a hot day so decided to give this place a try since its on my walk home from BART. Yeah they should've just called this salad "Spring Mix" because thats mainly what it was. Small portion. Wouldn't go again. read more

Food is consistently delicious and ingredients are always fresh. I crave their bowls all the time anytime because they are that good. Highly recommend and versatile protein options to suit your liking. Easily my favorite food place around! read more
