    Jing's chili crisp salad - highly recommend
    Sharon Y.

    We've never eaten here since they don't have outdoor seating, but we have ordered delivery and pickup and multiple times, and they never disappoint. Definitely one of our top salad places in Santa Monica. The combinations they suggest are well put together with nice contrast in taste and texture between the leaves, protein, and other accoutrements, and their ingredients are always fresh and high quality. Portions are generous. Some of my favorites include: elote, mandarin, Jing's chili crisp

    Fresh ingredients and amazing value -- you get a giant bowl that's good for at least one (probably two) meal. Love that you can choose from a variety of pre-made bowls/salads or build your own. Great to have a healthier option for lunch and dinner in Santa Monica that's reasonably priced!

    My DYO salad ($11.95)
    Tatiana P.

    Decided to stop by Mixt Santa Monica for lunch, and didn't regret it. They have endless options for salads. You can design your own or select from a ready menu. They also have sandwiches and warm bowls. I went with DYO so I could select what I like. It was great - good portion, tasted very good, and ingredients were fresh. I really liked the balsamic dressing with it. The restaurant was clean with nice decor. Fabian helped me and was wonderful.

    Ceasar with crispy chicken
    Shinay W.

    Love this place. Great ceasar and warm bowls. Their crispy cauliflower is so so good too. Carrot, turmeric, strawberry drink is also a win. Service is hit or miss but when it's a miss it's still a hit. Although they aren't super great with large orders for some reason. Sometimes literally something different than what you ordered lol, not even wrong just different. I love their sun room sitting area. Big and airy. I own a space close by and it's a go-to!

    Be-LEAF-me, @mixt is definitely a must try if you're looking for a salad in LA! I love how you can MIX things up with either their build your own and pre-fixed options, which are perfect if you're indecisive like I am. Their quality is consistent throughout both their Bay Area and LA chains, and I love how you can get unbelievably large portions with very fresh ingredients for very reasonable prices! My go-to's are the Mandarin salad and Mixt Crispy Chicken Sandwich, but their new Peachy salad definitely takes the spotlight, and I would highly recommend checking them out while peach season is in full swing. Featured here: Elote salad Peachy salad Mandarin salad Mixt crispy Crispy Cauliflower lemonade agua fresca All the employees are seriously so kind and helpful, and this is definitely a spot that I would bring my friends to for a casual hangout!

    DESIGN YOUR OWN SALAD
    Alyssa C.

    Salads here are huge and love the variety they have!! I wasn't crazy about the marinated tofu and I wish the design your own salad came with a bit more of the toppings (they allow only 5 and don't put much of any of them on - as you can see). Their reciped salads might be a better choice! They seem to include more and aren't much more expensive. The service is pretty good, although that might depend on who's making your salad It's a peaceful spot, good for lunch or even for studying (saw a few people with their laptops out). Would definitely return!

    Cowboy Salad with WRONG dressing... where's the chipotle honey drizzle??
    Kelly C.

    This is a super expensive place .. for salad. Over $50 for two salads. So when the delivery comes and the order isn't correct-- it's super disappointing. There's also no way to contact the restaurant. Any issues with an order can only be pursued thru their "help" / contact via email (no chat avail) so if you have an incorrect order or something is missing -- you're forced to send an email, and then wait over 24 hours to hear anything (if you hear back at all..) When the order is correct the food IS good -- but it really depends on getting the right combination -- In this instance they omitted the chipotle honey drizzle that accompanies the "Cowboy" salad is really the star of the meal-- so to see it substituted with some orange thick gross "dressing" (it was so thick -- I couldn't even use it.). I contacted the company thru email over a week ago, received an auto-generated response and then it was never followed up. Thankfully there are many other options in downtown Santa Monica & I'd recommend going there or only going to Mixt in person so you can watch them make the salad.

    First time coming here. Was thinking of getting a salad but went for the bowl! Quality ingredients and what's cool is you can see them make the food. Service was top notch with a cool dine in place. Will definitely come back

    What a great salad spot! A good hidden study spot if the coffee shops are full. Leif really helped out and speed up the line. he's a super good worker especially for only being here for two weeks. Anyways, really enjoyed my experience here, the ambiance is great.

Perhaps I should have ordered a bakery/bread item given that's what they're known for. The omelette had no flavor and the cheese definitely didn't taste sharp. Something in the herbs also didn't go with the eggs (perhaps tarragon?). The included salad was overdressed and too vinegary for my taste. The cappuccino came out cold and I asked to have it heated up, and they gladly made a new one for me. Also, the loud music blaring at 8am when trying to have a conversation was annoying. This was a miss for me. That said, my friend enjoyed her bakery items very much

[Parking]: Free 1-hour customer parking behind the restaurant. [Atmosphere]: Cute decor and the restaurant was playing funky music in the background. [Menu]: Customers build their own bowls with 2 bases (6 options), 2 vegetables (4 options), and 1 main (8 protein options or 1 vegetable instead) for $12.99. The back side of the laminated menu also lists all allergens for each item. Top Yelp highlighted items include Orange Mango Chicken (main), Chow Mein (base), Cold Noodles (base), Almond Roca Chocolate Chip, and Scallion Garlic Cheese Toast. The best-selling dish at Cassia, chickpea curry, is also available on the menu as main. *** Bowl (bases - chow mien + cold noodles, vegetables - cucumber salad + chopped kale salad, and main - charred honey chicken - $12.99): Generous portion with enough to split between lunch and dinner. I really liked the kale salad as it tasted creamy. The cold noodles were not too spicy with just a tiny hint of numbing spice. Honey chicken and chow mein were good. The order also came with green sauce and sweet & sour sauce. The green sauce was absolutely amazing (creamy and spicy) and the sweet-and-sour sauce was not as good as the green sauce but still good. *** There is no question in my mind that Jade Rabbit is one of the best Chinese American restaurants in LA and Orange County.
