Don't get it delivered. Something magical happens when they toss your greens, dressing, veggies, nuts and seeds all together in that stainless steel bowl. And all that is lost when they deliver it - goodies on top and dressing on the side.Try as you might to get the same result by shaking the biodegradable box under your desk, it just doesn't end up nearly as nice. Thus, three stars for Mixt Greens when it's delivered to my office and five stars when I go get it myself. My current favorite salad is the (slightly modified) Caesar: half romaine hearts/half kale, jettison the white anchovies in favor of beets. (It's especially nice when paired with a bottle of the Beta Beet juice from nearby Juice Shop.) read more

Not sure why this place has only 3 stars. Food: I got the mixt Caesar salad with medium dressing and it was great! I am a vegetarian so I didn't get chicken and this salad completely filled me up. It was a little heavy on the dressing so I would probably get it light next time. Service: the line was short when I got here and they make it right in front of you so it's very quick. Great place to pick up lunch to eat in the office. Ambiance: this location is a decent size. There was plenty of seats to sit at when I went. I would come back again to get lunch, just lighter on the dressing. read more

Too bad I can't attach a video, then you could see the bug on my salad container doing it's wriggling thing. Needless to say, today's salad was a bust. Gagging at the thought of how many of his friends I ate before I saw him. Mixt is being removed from the rotation. read more

MIXT - The bug in my salad - Vegetarian Near Me - San Francisco, California

Pretty darn good! Lived up to the hype. Will have to try to customize a salad of my own one of these days. $9 for a meal sized salad is still cheaper than what you can get at a restaurant, and is still a MUCH better value than the tiny sandwich I got at Sellers Market. I have to admit though...I don't exactly feel healthy having one of these for lunch. The bleu cheese, bacon, egg, oil, and avocado made me feel as greasy and bogged down as any other lunch. It's a hefty lunch even though it's a salad. read more

Love their salads.. Fast service. Good prices. Fresh... read more

It's a 10 minute walk for me to get to this place, but it is completely worth it. The salads here are delicious. You can choose from the pre-designed salads, design your own salad from scratch, or split the difference and request modifications to one of the pre-designed salads. While the salads are a bit pricey, they are also quite large. Moreover, they are made with all fresh, locally sourced ingredients. A selection of sandwiches is also available, but I've actually yet to try them. Given the same people are behind Split Bread, though, I'd wager the sandwiches here are pretty good too. Beware that there is a lunch time rush and the line often stretches out the door at that time. You'll need to allow 10 to 15 minutes to get your salad in this case. The peak time is usually 11:30 AM - 1 PM. Also, you may not want to wait too late to go there (they close at 3pm), as they do run out certain ingredients later in the day. If you become a fan of this place, I recommend that you sign up for the rewards program offered through Thanx: you receive a free salad after buying 10. Somewhat annoyingly, though, the "free salad" is only a $10 credit when all salads hover around $12. read more

Yay I finally made it early enough to get the Maui and try the ahi tuna for the first time. And boy was it fan-fresh in your mouth-tastic! The mix of avocado in every bite w/ the butter lettuce, cherry tomatoes and slices of mango gave it a slightly tangy, sweet and a touch of creaminess in my mouth. Yum. I never enjoyed a salad this much since I first had my room mate's steak salad. The seared ahi tuna was the perfect top off to the salad. It's like tasting paradise in your mouth. wow. read more

Place has a long line during lunchtime, but worth the wait. You can order their specialty salad or build your own for about $8. Such a variety...spinach, romaine hearts, red leaf, mixed greens, etc. you can order steak, tuna, chicken, yumm! if you don't feel like a salad you can always grab a sandwich, they looked delicious, will have to try soon. read more

MIXT - Maui Salad - Vegetarian Near Me - San Francisco, California

UGH. It pains me to hate on a downtown salad trough location because its already so basic. Expectations should not be high regardless. But this place is so underwhelming. This is my 3rd time to this location and its my last. I kept hoping I had a bad batch but I've concluded its just bad. Reasons: its expensive, the lettuce and incredients are usually wet so your salad is usually wet and soggy, the bowls are just not good. The rice is hard. Ugh I cant. read more

The salad is good. But I found this paper in my salad....and they just said sorry and nothing else. read more

MIXT - Vegetarian Near Me - San Francisco, California

This place was awesome. I was worried about the long line during the lunch hour rush but the employees were able to get the customers moving at a pretty decent pace and I didn't stand in line for more than 5 minutes. There was just so many selections to choose from I didn't know what to get. I decided to get the seasonal selection of the heirloom tomato salad. MAN was it good. My mouth started to water as I saw the guy making my salad pull out a HUGE heirloom tomato and add big thick slices of it on top of my salad. The salad was VERY good and very refreshing with the huge pieces of tomatoes. I highly recommend it before the summer ends. I'd absolutely come back again. I also love this place's emphasis on local ingredients and sustainable practices with compostable take out containers and cutlerly. read more

Beautiful layout of all the ingredients from which I can build my super-expensive, already waited so long I'm about to pass out, something wrong with the flava-less dressing salad. Kill the line, cut the price and bring-your-own Newman's Own dressings and Mixt G gets 5 stars easily. read more

Before Mixt Greens come into my life....I could never imagine looking forward to having salads for lunch. Now...it's all I think about...I was there 3 times this past week!!! Just what makes it so special??? hmmm....I suppose apart from the super fresh ingredients...it's the imaginative menus. Where else can you get crispy lotus roots, roasted truffle potatoes and cilantro jalapeno vinaigerette on your salad? Not that many places I bet. read more

MIXT - The Madison - with extra cherry tomatoes - Vegetarian Near Me - San Francisco, California

The lunch line at this place is SUPER long. Snakes inside and outside of the place. I ordered a Hatch salad which included chicken, watermelon radish, fennel, onions, eggs, and avocado. Was mediocre. It was missing a certain pzazz that I hope to taste when I'm paying 11$ for a salad. read more

Everyone seems to rave about how fresh, how big, nice sides, etc and how it is the best in SF, but this looks like what Pluto's been doing way before them. I got to admitted that its been awhile since I've been to Pluto's, but for twice the price, they better be what people expected for having organic this and that and the high lease they pay in return for the high prices. My Maui salad with the ahi tuna was ok, but given the good description of the salad ingredients, they didn't delivered as describe on my first visit. More lettuce i understand as THIS is a salad of course, but 5-6 pieces of 1/2 cherry tomatoes and no avocado i've seen in my salad. All the other items was ok, but this left me with an unmemorable experience with such high 4-5 stars from other yelpers. read more

MIXT - Vegetarian Near Me - San Francisco, California

Great salad place. Way overpriced though. Expect to pay $13 for a standard salad without meat in it. Still, it's fast and healthy, I suppose. And tasty. I suggest ordering through a meal ordering app to get your food in a timely manner or else you'll be swamped by lunch lines. read more

Pricey, but very good stuff. I came to this location because I had a coupon from a friend and I was always always curious about what was all the hype about. I will say this right off the bat the place always had a line, but it moves pretty quickly at the busiest time around 12pm I still only waited about 5-8 minutes until I got to the front. I made my own combination of a salad and created a pretty good ranch dressing salad with corn, chicken and a ton of veggies. The staff were very nice and although I still find it hard to pay 10-14 bucks for a salad I enjoyed the fact that the place is very clean and have a very fresh product. I will definitely give it another go soon! read more

MIXT - Made a combination salad of my own with lots of veggies, chicken and corn! - Vegetarian Near Me - San Francisco, California

Oh I absolutely LOVE it here. I wanted a quick to-go dinner that I could anti-socially eat in my hotel room while catching up on work (and crappy TV, let's be honest), and Mixt was the perfect solution. The menu and build-your-own salad/grain bowl options are wonderful. I ended up going the classic route with a chicken caesar salad, and it was so above and beyond what I expected. Beyond fresh greens and tasty chunks of chicken, it included giant hunks of avocado, radishes, garlic croutons, fresh herbs and a housemade dressing. Really appreciated that the gal making my salad asked if I wanted light/medium/heavy dressing, so when I got the salad it wasn't uncomfortably drenched. Anyway, I know the point of getting a salad is to be somewhat healthy but I don''t regret a single thing about this caesar - it was pure salad decadence. It's an incredibly hearty serving though, so I'm sad to say I wasted about 1/3 of it. read more

The staff here must eat their vegetables because if there is any correlation between what you eat and what you look like - I am going to have to eat salad from this place everyday for the rest of my life. The boys who work the register are darling and the service is excellent. I usually stick to the Cobb Salad and the Filet Sando. Both stellar choices. Slap me silly and call me Sally cuz this place kicks some food pyramid booty. The prices are a bit on the steep side, but considering its only a few bucks more than a mediocre salad I make concessions in the wallet department and come here. Get your salad on and feel like you are being healthy! An additional plus is that they are very eco friendly with compostable containers and biodegradable bags and recycles paper products. Extra points for Thinking Green! read more

Expensive salad? Yes, VERY! But it's definitely a delicious salad! I only have it once in a while and it's always a very tasty salad. I love ordering their Mixt Cobb salad WITHOUT blue cheese. Sorry, but I HATE blue cheese. Depending on the timing, the line might be horrendous! Staff are all pretty nice! read more

MIXT - Heirloom tomato salad w/ Bacon - Vegetarian Near Me - San Francisco, California

I love Mixt Green's! Yeah, $10 is a lot for a salad but you gotta get it into your head that this is ORGANIC and it come is a pretty big box. I've ordered the Chicken Caesar salad on occasion and it was yummy! One thing, sometimes the chefs/salad jockeys (dunno what they're called) forget to add the ingredients listed in the menu so ya gotta definitely watch out for that and ask for it if it's missing. Case in point, they forgot to give me the croutons for the Caesar so I had to ask! Otherwise, it's a great place for take out salad (and when you want to eat healthy!). read more

My favorite place to eat when I worked downtown. Four stars because it's $10 per salad (O_O). But oh, what a salad. This baby is choke full of strange looking lettuce and all sort of high brow dressings and whatnot. All of their salads are good, but my favorite is the cobb. Beware of the huge portions....if you don't think salad can get you to gain weight...this place just might prove you wrong (but in a blissfully happy way....) Cool things about this place: (1) The greens (green does belong to the cool color family, afterall) (2) it's Green (their restuarant was built with many recyclable/renewable sources, their plastic bags are fully compostable) (3) the people - one of the most friendly staff I've encountered in those parts - nice smiles when asking if you want bread with your salad... not so cool things: (1) the green (money, that is...) (2) the line (know when to go to avoid the overworked office stiffs) (3) the hours. It's only open weekdays for lunch. Boohoo. read more

I want to give this amazingly fresh lunch spot five stars, really, I do. I love the vast selection of produce for salads; that's why I go there, for the salads. Whenever the restaurant offers a vegan dressing without vinegar, or offers apple cider vinegar as an option, I might just update my rating. As well, I hope they incorporate a gluten-free bread option as an add-on to the salads, such as a baked flax cracker. This would most definitely more frequently entice me into the ever-popular Mixt Greens. It is rare that I go there when there isn't a line. read more

I'm really somewhere between a 3 and a 4 on this one. Here's why: Mixt Greens is one of those places you just feel healthier walking into. It is, of course, a place devoted primarily to the custom salad. At lunchtime in Fidi, the line is usually out the door. They do have these beautiful pitchers of water with cucumber for those waiting in line to quench their thirst. I just love it when restaurants do this! But since, i'm no fan of lines, I often come here and turn around when I see the length of the line. But on those days when I do make it, the salads are always fresh. Even more impressive than the food is the staff--always super friendly. Mixt Greens has a really positive atmosphere with fun employees. And I think that's definitely a plus. I usually walk out with a smile. Even though the salads are tasty, I think the cost-value ratio is a bit off at Mixt Greens. If I ended up getting what I really wanted on my salad, it would probably cost $20-$25. So, I just pick a few toppings and spend about $14 or $15 on a salad--which means I never get the salad I really want and still feel like I spent a lot on take out lunch. That being said--the food is good, the staff is friendly, and they have lovely cucumber water for patrons to enjoy--Which makes it an A-OK place for lunch. read more

The sandwiches and salads are amazingly good. So why just 4 stars? They're pretty darn expensive and there is always such a long line during lunch. But its worth it. Mixt Greens is usually my once a week splurge treat. I do, however, wish they would bring back the heirloom tomato salad which was, apparently an experiment. But it was the one salad I ever purchased where they actually undercharge for, in my opinion. For $12.95 +tax (I believe it was) you got mixt greens, a huge portion of heirloom tomatoes, figs, corn and goat cheese. It was phenomenal! read more

For those healthy living/eating peeps, yes, this is the spot. A variety of fresh greenery salads. Gets crazy busy during lunch time so I'd recommend picking something up before noon or after 1pm. Lines move fast so long as you know what you want. Just know that this is not cheap salad. read more

I love love love salads, but the high prices here are a huge turn off! Based purely off food, Mixt Greens is a great lunch option. The ingredients are all fresh, however they definitely skimp a little on the toppings. I've had the Hatch salad off of the summer special menu, which included grilled chicken, avocado, kale, radish, and shaved fennel. I had the cilantro jalapeno vinaigrette instead of the regular dressing, and it added a nice kick to the salad. Like I said, the portion of chicken was definitely too little for the price I paid. I've also designed my own salad with mixed greens, quinoa, chickpeas, roasted red peppers, and cucumbers. Once again, the salad was primarily greens and just a little bit of the toppings I chose. I do like the slice of bread they include. It's a good additional carb, and the texture of the crust is nice and crunchy. If you're looking for healthy lunch options, this is the place to go if you don't mind paying a little extra! read more

MIXT - Hatch salad (summer special) - Vegetarian Near Me - San Francisco, California

Never irritate a hungry person or give false pretense. That is the number one rule that any place that serves food should remember. And it is about quality service and not the quantity of lettuce you give. Their Madison salad was suberb, but cost me $13 (with my Keep the Change system). I appreciated that the mixer asked how much dressing I wanted. I love how the chicken was grilled to near perfection. And the overall portion given to me that made my lunch complete. Yet, when I orignally ordered the Bachelor I was told they "didn't have meat", strangely my friend who was with another mixer who ordered the Bachelor literally a couple minutes after me. And I don't care if they "just put out the meat", don't say you don't have something, when he could of said, do you want to wait a second? And mean they mix first and then than put the meat ... and that was obvious because I was watching them the entire time I was standing in line for five minutes. Yes, I was hungry and yes, I was b*tchy ... get it right Mixt Greens ... I don't mess around when I eat. read more

I love the concept behind Mixt Greens and my salad was tasty and filling. However, there was a massive bug in my food. Too bad I noticed it when I was on my last two fork-fulls of my salad. I understand that bugs live in vegetables and would be more understanding if this was the first time it happened. My friends have had similar experiences, so it seems like this is the norm. There are other great salad options in the area, with higher cleanliness standards. read more

Always a line out the door by 12 noon, especially on sunny days, so go early if you want to avoid the crowd. The line does go pretty fast though. Excellent salads and sandwiches, pricey, filling, organic and "healthy." Favorites: - Bachelor Salad - Maui Salad - Dagwood Salad - Farmers Sandwich add Steak read more

Fresh salads, well tossed, hearty ingredients. They ask you how much dressing you want, so it's customizable. Have only tried the vegetarian salad so far, but the tofu was firm and lightly seasoned. Warning! lines around lunchtime are 10 minutes deep at least. read more

MIXT - Veggie Salad - Vegetarian Near Me - San Francisco, California

Mixt refuses to mix salads ordered online. If you like eating a pile of tomatoes, followed by a pile of egg, followed by a pile of lettuce, this is your place. If you like eating a mixed salad (like 99% of people), find another place to eat. On Wednesday, there was a LINE of people asking why their salads weren't mixed. (Can't make this stuff up...) read more

What a great place to have lunch! Two friends and I went here today for lunch at 11:30. At this time there was no line and we were able to get a table. The salads are so fresh and you get a huge portion. And Mixt Greens supporting local farmers is a bonus too! You know your salad is fresh when it is all grown locally. Between the three of us we got to try three different salads, each one as good as the others! I now have a new place to get a great healthy lunch! Thanks Mixt Greens! If you don't want to wait in line get there early as it gets very busy! But they are still very efficient at moving you through the system . read more

Total hit or miss. If you want to create your own, good luck being able to communicate with any of the employees, it is SO LOUD. Specifically one employee always asks how my day is (which is a nice gesture) but always ends up forgetting something and then just throwing it on top of the already mixed salad. Also because it is so loud, I've been overcharged multiple times because they can't hear me and assume. Bottom line(s): good salad combos, definitely $$, and annoying service. If you're looking to just grab a bite and fresh air, this place won't give you any piece of mind. read more

Really good salads, obviously. Expensive for sure but that's to be expected around these parts. The one I've tried that I really like is the Bachelor - it has skirt steak, potatoes, blue cheese and breadcrumbs in addition to the normal salad stuff (aka greens). I probably can't afford to eat here more than once a week but I still plan to come back and try the cobb (one of my fave salads in general) and the Cowboy! I think if I eat here and Blue Barn a couple more times, I might somehow gain enough expertise to be able to make these expensive-ass salads at home. read more

I work in the area and came here for lunch because I need to start eating more healthy. While the line is long, it moves quickly. There are many people at the counter making orders and they mix things up pretty quickly. I agree with the other reviewers that said this place was noisy. I had to repeat my order several times and I was just choosing one of their options. I can just imagine the stress of building your own in this chaos! I ordered the Orchard which had chicken, bacon, and avocado, which came out to be $15 with tax. Now, this place isn't cheap but most places around the area aren't. Just slightly more than what I would be paying elsewhere. Definitely a solid salad spot! read more

Went into Mixt last minute and ordered a Mixt Cesar. There was a maggot in my salad so I went back to the store immediately and they told me to take a picture of the maggot and email the company for a refund. I haven't eaten since - so disgusting. read more

It is hard to go wrong here. First time and I wanted something pretty healthy so I ordered the Beetnik salad (with mixt greens, arugula, roasted golden beets, avocado, goat cheese, toasted walnuts, dried cranberries, shaved fennel, savory herbs, balsamic vinaigrette). Very yummy. The line moves pretty fast at 11:45am on a weekday. Standard $10 price for a lunch salad for SF. I will be back to have others. read more

Boyfriend rocks. Because of my super glam job, I have very few opportunities to leave the office for so much as a breath of fresh air, much less a full lunch. On days like today, I call Boyfriend around 11 and start whining, fussing, and crying about the injustices of being me. I threaten to do things like jump out a window, throw myself into oncoming traffic, or undergo sexual reassignment surgery if someone doesn't get me a damn bowl of soup or salad by 12 noon. Being the most wonderful boyfriend ever, Boyfriend almost always complies. Today's lunch was from Mixt Greens. While it wasn't HORRIBLE in actuality, it was indeed horrible after all the hype I've heard about this place. Boyfriend and I have attempted to brave that city-block-long line snaking out of the joint on numerous occasions, only to give in to our tummy grumblings and waves of dizziness after 3 or 4 minutes in line. Apparently, if you go closer to 1:30 you'll wait only 20 minutes as opposed to the usual 30-40 it appears people are willing to endure. Boyfriend got me a cobb salad and it was alright. My main problem was that my lettuce was largely browning and wilted and some of it was of that tissue-thin, transparent, and watery, mushy consistency that old, rotting greens take on. The toppings were plentiful but the chicken was chewy and all bruised looking. Ew! I did love the generous sprinkling of very crispy, very thick, very UNchewy, UNfatty bacon. Delicious! And the cheese was very good too. They could have been a little less stingy with the avocado considering this is a $10 salad. The cherry tomatoes were perfectly sweet and very ripe. The menu says "butter lettuce" but I know mine was Romaine. Bottom line? Boyfriend rocks. Mixt Greens just does ok. read more
