When you pay $15 for a salad, you expect all of the ingredients to be in it. FACEPALM EMOJI. So frustrating. If you're going to eat here, don't bother ordering online. They routinely forget to include key ingredients. And sometimes even add in toppings that you didn't even want. As a vegan this is especially frustrating when you get home to find cheese in your salad and now it's inedible. Get it together MIXT!! read more

My co worker and I were going to go to Panera in Emeryville for lunch to get a salad but saw this place and decided to try it instead. Both of our salads were flavorless. I got the falaf and she ordered the custom salad. Thank goodness the bits and pieces of falafel were in my salad cause it was the only thing that added flavor. I went medium with the dressing but couldn't even taste it. Unfortunately the guy who prepared my coworker's salad gave her a half empty container. As we watched everyone else getting their orders, the salads were bulging out of the containers/bowls. Someone else made mine and there was so much salad, it definitely was a two meal salad. She said there was no flavor either, not even in the dressing. Her salad contained: wheat berries, spinach, grilled asparagus, avocado, golden beets, shaved Parmesan, black beans, and avocado goddess dressing. The line was out the door and people seemed happy with their food, so we both felt like asking everyone about their salads and what they ordered, lol, we just didn't understand. I might go back because the salmon looked good but I believe the Starbucks salads are tastier and definitely prefer Panera's Fuji apple salad. Gave them a star for a cute place and a star for the friendly staff. read more

Me: Cowboy Salad no chicken, add bacon light dressing What I got: Cowboy salad no bacon heavy dressing, and of course they charged me for it. Every time I go in here they get something wrong, I'm literately standing in front of you telling you what I want and they still can't get it right. Why is it so hard. So time to stop going to Mixt. read more

First time in this spot but it will not be my last. I ordered the Beetnik (see photo), with grilled chicken and scallions. I ate the entire salad which for me, is saying something. My salad was prepared by Carla who was friendly, knowledgeable and patiently answered all my questions. The prices seemed about at median for downtown and I lve having another go to spot for fresh, friendly and fast filling food. My vote is a !! read more

MIXT - Beetnik salad with grilled chicken and scallions! - Salad Near Me - Oakland, California

Mixt might be brand new to Oakland, but because they're an established restaurant in SF you would think they'd be able to have better managers running their establishment. Isya, who runs Mixt Oakland is rude, overbearing and disrespectful to customers. I understand that they're just opening, but their completely disorganized. The way in-store purchases and to-go orders is very inconsistent. I waited over 30 mins to get an online order that was made 30 mins prior. I asked for my salad to be mixed with dressing - this was denied by their manager because "they don't do that" even though they will mix all to-go orders who are ordering within their line. This can be easy to understand if it's explained appropriately, but Isya doesn't think speaking to customers kindly is a thing he has to do. Unfortunately, I watched him mistreat several other people who were waiting significantly longer for their to-go orders than they should as well, so I'm led to believe it wasn't a personal attack on me. Beyond the bad customer service by management. The salad was fine. Is it worth $16? Absolutely not. Oakland might be on it's way to taking on SF's people, but it still isn't SF and we shouldn't be made to pay these high prices for, TBH, a normal sized salad. There's plenty of places to get salads in Oakland that treat their customers with respect and don't overcharge them. I'll also mention that Mixt has already removed one of my reviews, because it didn't fit their standards, so hopefully this will help them understand that their restaurant is unpleasant because who wants to pay for on overpriced salad and get treated poorly. read more

Fresh, custom made salads, only one I've found in Oakland that I like. Reminds me a little of Sweet Green or Chopt.

The chicken tasted very bland. The ingredients were fresh and proportioned but the overall Cobb salad was not the best choice.

Mixt may seem a bit expensive for a salad, but their food is always fresh, delicious, and the portions are always large enough for two servings. The staff at the Broadway location is friendly, helpful, and generous with the portions! I'm thrilled there is a Mixt so close to my apartment now, getting good miles out of their reward program. read more

I've lived in the neighborhood for a few years and have had a hard time finding a place to get a quick, good, healthy salad besides Whole Foods. I've gone to Mixt a lot in SF so I was really jazzed they opened right near Drake's and Brown Sugar Kitchen. I've only been to this location one time, but I've never had an issue with service. Even during SF lunch rushes, the line has always moved really quickly as efficiently. I decided to get a few things for dinner for my boyfriend and me to share- I got the zesty grain bowl (one of my favorite options with quinoa, kale, pickled red onions, chicken, avocado, orange and feta) and then opted for one of the dinner plates (which I had never tried) with the trout, mashed cauli and grilled broccoli. The salad was fab as usual, and the fish came in a nice sauce with super generous portions for the sides. The two combined was more than enough food for both of us to share, and we ended up with some leftovers. Although it's not cheap, it's on par with many of the other restaurants in the area and offers a great selection of really healthy options. They have tons of salad toppings so that you can make your own or choose from one of the other pre-made options where they update a few seasonally. SO happy to have this around, will definitely be a regular. read more

This is my 2nd time coming here and I came back because my salad the first time was really good! The first time I did a build your own salad and the ingredients were super fresh which made for a bomb salad. This time around I ordered the Falaf salad. I'm slowly but surely trying to get into the Vegan life so I appreciate the vegan options Mixt offers. I first thought to myself "these ingredients are a bit interesting" and was tempted to just stick to what I know but I'm glad I stepped out on faith lol. The grapes in the salad really give it a nice sweet taste that compliments the other savory ingredients. Roasted cauliflower in a salad? Let's just say this was a first and surely won't be the last. I'm looking forward to trying more salad creations read more

The salads are huge here! I mean, rarely have I become full from a mere salad! Mixt serves jumbo salads that can feed two! Customers essentially choose from over 15-20 different ingredients (from the type of leaves for the base to the toppings) and watch as a server masterfully mixes your salad right in front of your eyes. This location is clean, spacious, and quick with the service. The salads are a bit on the expensive side, so expect to break a $20. "Healthy" can have upfront costs, but healthy choices make life affordable later. read more

This is my go-to and I eat salads here all the time. I usually get the Cowboy salad. What I like best is that you can customize a salad on the website and know exactly how many calories are in it. For all of us trying to lose COVID weight, this is godsend! read more

Salad was on point! Just next time no sherry dressing too sour throws off taste of salad.

I ordered a salad tonight for the first time and I was disappointed. I got the falafel pieces added to my salad and it was like eating rocks. I worried about my dental work and chipping teeth the pieces were almost impossible to bite. I added avocado as an add on and i got one slice cut into 2 pieces so maybe 1/16th of an avocado when it shows much more in the photos. The roasted cauliflower wasn't roasted or golden at all and seemed steamed and soggy (it has no color or flavor indicating roasting). The serving of arugula was plenty, the other items not so much. The tahini dressing is good, but needed a bit more. I would order again but just be aware of things that I have raised here. It is a bit pricey for basically a bag or arugula that costs $2.99-3.99. read more

I had a great salad. Filling and healthy portion. Also, tried the turmeric and blood orange drink- really refreshing.

My favorite salad here is the orchard salad!! Omg grilled chicken, bacon, avocado. I need the secret to their vinegarette! The salads are a bit overpriced as the total was $17 with tax. Lmao this location gives less than the SF locations ive been too. Sad face read more

I picked up my salad as normal notice that it was not what I normally receive for a $15.00 salad. The eggs were soft and just a few pieces of bacon. I couldn't return and I was starved. 2 hours later bridesmaid movie scene sets in. Instead of a bridal house I was at the office ALONE! It was . After about 3 hours I felt better. I was wondering why the staff was looking at me. I use to LOVE this place. read more

Over $31 for two salads. Mandarin salad came with 6 pieces of grilled chicken of about 1 in maximim size. Tomatoes in the Bachelor salad were not fresh. Mandarin dressing had good flavor and the greens seemed fresh. Not a fan, due to price point, freshness inconsistencies and minimal protein serving to price ratio. read more

The food is good here but it's weird that they don't have a contact number to call. This place was 5 stars to me until today. I went and got a peachy salad and when I made it home I was eating my salad only to realize there were no peaches in it! There was no number to call the store so I had to walk back to the store because I'm sure that if I didn't, they wouldn't believe me if I tried to bring it up at a later date. I told them there were no peaches in it and one of the employees looked around at it I guess to make sure I wasn't lying?? She then went back and cut up some peaches and came back with a handful of them and threw it on the top of my salad. Last time I got the salad they had the peaches already cut up in a container. It just made me get the feeling that they didn't have them so they just decided to omit them. Idk it just seemed off. And I never got an apology or a simple "I'm sorry about that". It just all seemed off to me. Edit: Just bit into the salad and the peaches that she threw in are hard and sour. They're not even ripe! At this point I'd rather have my money back but considering I have a bad knee I'm not going back for a third time. read more

Ok.... normally I love Mixt so I was excited when I saw they started having a few season sandwiches. BEWARE!!! I'm not sure they know what a sandwich is and they should probably just stick to salads. I ordered a sandwich and it came smashed and deconstructed into a box under a bunch of greens, I literally thought they accidentally sent me a salad until I saw the bread pieces. Won't be ordering this again. read more

You guys. Omg. I cannot express how Delicious, sustainable and freshly made all the dishes are at mixed in open. We were in vited has for the grand opening and every single plate we had was phenomenal. Their staff was beyond knowledgeable, super hospitable and trained to AT. We ordered the Wranglee Salad, The Cobb Salad, and their seasonal plates as well. The flat iron steak was very well seasoned and tenderly cooked, the Herb roasted chicken was so juicy and phenomenal. My favorite was prolly the parmesean cauliflower mash! Omg odk how they made it so buttery but YASS. If you need better options then I would take a visit when you can!! read more

I'm never going to mixed greens again! This place is SO good. The salads are so flavorful and come in HUGE portions. All the ingredients are fresh and they have an abundance of different dressing flavors. 10/10!!! read more

MIXT - The cowboy salad with avocado - Salad Near Me - Oakland, California

Filled my salad halfway on the container. For a 16 dollar salad it should be a fair amount. The quality of these salads has gone down significantly since my first visit two years ago. I am a regular and I won't be going back anymore. read more

Best salad I ever had. It is a little pricey, but it is "you get what you pay for." When I was down for business I went here 3 days in a row and I don't eat salad that much. Highly recommend and I will definitely be back. Thank you! read more

Got a salad to go...found a sharp screw in my salad. Thank goodness I found it before I ate it. read more

MIXT - Kale gone bad - Salad Near Me - Oakland, California

Fully recommend it if you want good tasty light lunch. Bought it for my parents and loved it.

Came here again during my lunch . I wanted try another item from their menu so I ordered chicken sandwich. TRE (employee) tried two times to make the sandwich and for some reason she was struggling to follow the recipe. She was going to make it for the third time when I stopped her and walkout. I don't think it's her fault I believe it's lack of training. I waited at least 12 minutes to order my food and then waiting 7 minutes watching TRE struggling to make my sandwich and still walked out without food. I should have just ordered my usual COB salad. During my last visit I gave them 4 stars, due to my today's experience I have to take away two stars. I don't think I'll be returning here for a while. read more

Excellent fresh and flavorful meal that could never be confused with a usual salad. Delicious!

Had lunch at Mixt with my friend. There was a long line 10 mins before noon, so we ordered salad in a to go box. It took about 5-10mins to prepare an order. We ordered Beetnik and Orchard salad. The dressing tastes flavorful and the veggies were fresh. There was too much dressing on mine. Next time I will ask for less dressing or get it on the side. Also, I will probably call to order ahead. read more

Something is different since the last time i ordered a salad here in December---that something propelled me to write a review. I placed an order online for the first time; reluctantly, as the reviews about mobile orders always mention portion sizes or lack thereof. I get to the location around 815 (45 min before close), the order wasn't ready yet but it was no rush, there was still 15 min until the pickup window would have come and gone. When I mentioned my name, they advised that it wasn't ready but one of the Team Members advised that I was there and looked to speed up my order (there was no other customer in the store, just other mobile orders being filled). He asked the other employees who were on the salad line, to assist with getting my order done then headed to the kitchen area after their reply. He comes back about 5 min later to let me know that the delay is because they are waiting on rice and offered me a beverage for the wait--I accepted. He comes back a few moments later with a fresh batch of 'right rice' and they proceed to make my bowl. As I waited in the lobby, I watched about 5 salads made, all with generous portions, double checking orders before they were deemed 'ready' then checked again by the Cashier before being bagged. To the Management Team here, you all have seemingly taken the online reviews and made a true effort to address some of the concerns. As someone who frequents this location, even just to grab a Orange Turmeric juice or a cookie, I want to say, job well done to the team on shift tonight. At a lot of restaurants if you arrive in the final 30-45 minutes of closing or as food stations are being broken down, your meal is often subpar and it feels like you're getting scraps. The salads I watched being made tonight were anything but that--the ingredients were still very fresh, no wilted greens or other veggies. Shout out to Saint, if he isn't a Manager, you should strongly consider it. He has a great disposition with customers and other Team Members alike. He spoke to his team with courtesy and respect and the offer of the juice while I waited was not necessary but very kind, in consideration of the wait time. Great job again and thank you! If you had "MIXT" reviews or you wrote this particular location off for any of the reasons that I've addressed in my review, consider giving them another chance---they seem to take the customer's issues into consideration and implement better ways to operate and to ultimately make the customer happy. read more

Really?! All these other reviews with 4 or 5 stars. Hmmmph! I must disagree. I ordered the Summer special - Sandia. Wayyyyyy tooo much lettuce. It's quality of the bite and definitely NOT the quantity. Looks like a lot............ of lettuce! I really should've asked for less lettuce. I'm looking for a BALANCE of ingredients and flavors in every bite and not an overwhelming taste and feel of lettuce. So much lettuce. This gives you the illusion that you are getting a lot of salad in those containers (ordered to go). I don't want to chew on lettuce or taste lettuce. It's overpowering. I would much rather get (a lot) less lettuce and receive a better tasting salad, imho. Remember this...quality over quantity. I would rate this review a 1 star however the customer service was nice, attentive, and professional. Keep up the good work ladies and gentlemen. So I'm giving this 2 stars. Please work on the proportions. read more

I love this place because of the variety of salads and their crispy cauliflower is great. However, ordering online (caviar) does not allow you to REMOVE items you might be (not anaphylaxis levels) allergic to because they lock out their comments. A add to that that you can't find a phone number for them and it's infuriating. read more

I wanted healthy salad. What I got was wet soggy mess. So sad I've given up on trying to buy salads.

Got the napa chicken sandwich. Super tasty. Next time I'm getting the steak so I definitely will be back.

GUSHING REVIEW - on both the food AND the customer service! I started a new job in Downtown Oakland and needed to provide a working lunch for 16 people. Armed with nothing but a Google map I landed on MIXT and I'm so happy I did! The food was delicious - the salads were fresh, with crisp juicy greens, LOADS of fixin's, and salad dressing you wanted to DRINK! (Seriously - order extra cause you don't want to run out!) The sandwiches were full of goodness and amply loaded! I, unfortunately, ordered the wrong-sized salads (smalls instead of larges) and in seeing my panic with a hungry crew approaching - Ryan was able to place an order for the large salads, and he was back (no joke) in TWELVE MINUTES! What a lifesaver! We will be back! Thanks Ryan and everyone at MIXT Oakland! read more

Fav place for hearty, healthy salads!!! Soo good! I ask them to mix the siracha dressing with the honey drizzle (sooo damn good ) on top of my salad. read more

lots of healthy options and I really liked their salads and sandwiches!

A year later is this was part of my regular rotation of lunch spots pre-COVID. The staff is great and the food is always delicious. Parking is sometimes a challenge, but that's not Mixt's fault. I believe they're now available on some delivery apps, but I prefer to go in to get a break from sitting in front of the computer and pick it up in person read more

I usually go to MIXT in the city and was so excited to try this new location in Oakland. I usually get the Bachelor and went there tonight (Thursday at 7pm) and ordered my usual. Sadly, there were only a few small pieces of steak in my salad and that serving size is not consistent with the other locations. Hopefully this is not normal. read more
