    Strawberry Shaka
    Drianne B.

    On my way to the Cal Berkeley vs UCLA game we stopped here to grab a smoothie. Honestly it's not the type of place that would catch your eye but once inside you'll be glad you came. They have quite a selection of smoothies, fresh pressed juices and salads. If you're vegan or vegetarian or looking to eat healthier I would recommend giving this place a try. I'm not a big fan of smoothies that are yogurt or milk based so I was glad they offered options that didn't consist of either. I also prefer fresh squeezed juices as a base rather than from concentrate, they did not disappoint! There was no line when I arrived. They offer indoor and outdoor seating though there isn't much of a view aside from normal street traffic. I thought it was cool they had air plants and succulent beds in the windows. The decor is modest, tables are clean and they offer reusable utensils. As I only purchased smoothies, there were straws on the tables as well. We ordered two Dr. Green smoothies and one Strawberry Shaka to be split between the girls. Everyone enjoyed their smoothies. The smoothies were quite refreshing, smooth and tasted delicious. I only wish they were closer to where I live so that I may visit more often. The next time I'm in the area I will definitely stop by!

    The Tuna Avocado salad I had was great, I'll just lead with that!! They make the salad right in front of you, the place was empty when I came, so the service was quick. They gave me a lot of tuna, and it was very flavorful, I didn't even need to use the pesto dressing. They had outdoor seating, so I decided to eat here since it was a nice day. Everything tasted fresh, no doubt I would come here again!!

    Italiano Style Steak Salad

    I've only had one meal here so I can't say this is an accurate review of the whole place, but what I will review is the salad--I got an italiano. On first glance, it looked like a hefty amount, but I think the proportions are off because within just a few bites I was completely done with the meat and toppings and I was just left with green leaves with barely any dressing left. It's a little expensive for 95% leaves and 5% everything else I'll come back for the smoothies and sandwiches and see if I can change my mind

    Was looking for a nearby place where I could get a smoothie that didn't cost an arm and a leg. Organic Greens on Solano delivered! I got the Dr. Green smoothie and it was exactly what I wanted for a mid-afternoon pick me up. The smoothie was fresh, healthy, and affordable. I love getting smoothies but hate how expensive they can be. The Dr. Green was less than $8 The inside of the store is bright, clean, and comfortable. They also have a small outdoor section that's perfect for enjoying your food when the weather is nice. I didn't get any food but the salads looked delicious and much more affordable than places like Sweetgreen. I'll definitely be back to try those and their paninis soon! The service was quick and friendly and the quality of all the ingredients looked great, too!

    I'm just glad Organic Greens has arrived on Solano even if it isn't the complete menu, at least during their soft opening phase. Healthy options are good for those of us still struggling with innately indiscriminate palates. I really had a hankering for the Zucchini Noodles they serve at their Kittredge Street location but was bummed when I didn't see it on the overhead menu. After some major eye-darting, I settled on the $10.99 Arugula Princess Salad, which turned out to be a good-size bowl of fresh and mostly sweet ingredients. It was all tied together by the baby arugula and the strawberry vinaigrette. Strawberries, dried cranberries, goat cheese, and red beets were counterbalanced by marinated chickpeas, ground pistachios, and radish slices (photo: http://bit.ly/2NUJJLW). It worked. Somewhat bereft without a Coke Zero option on the premises, I went for a $5.99 Mason jar mug of The Beet Monster, a not overly sweet combination of beets, red grapes, apple, cucumber, mint, and ginger (photo: http://bit.ly/36IxpH0). I felt healthier already. FOOD - 4 stars...healthy ingredients with genuine flavor AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...typical looking eatery on Solano SERVICE - 3.5 stars...a bit uncertain but delivered the goods TOTAL - 4 stars...now if they add the zucchini noodles, well...

    Buffalo chicken salad and Vybes Hemp drink. Delish salad!
    Blair P.

    Organic. Flavorful. Satisfying. Nestled into a convenient corner of Solano you'll find the new Organic Greens. On the menu are smoothies, pressed juice, paninis, multiple signature salads, açaí bowls, wellness shots and a few dinner entrees. I came in for a late lunch and enjoyed the buffalo chicken salad. The buffalo flavor isn't spicy but rather wonderfully flavorful. A generous portion of dressing is mixed into the greens. Each ingredient tastes fresh. The Open sign wasn't on, but they were indeed open. I will return. Awesome salad.

    I love Organic Greens! I order food from here at least once a week for hikes, picnics, or when I want to treat myself to a healthy lunch in between zoom calls. I've tried most of their salads and sandwiches. My favorite salad right now is the Thai Girl Salad and favorite sandwich is the prosciutto-mozzarella panini (honorable mention of the chicken pesto sandwich too!). If you order the Kale Chicken Cesar ask them to go east on the dressing. They really drown the Cesar salad for some reason. Today I tried the Grains & Greens Chicken Salad and while it's heavy on cabbage, it worked for me because I like cabbage. Not a huge fan of the arugula salads: Italiano Style Steak Salad was okay; the arugula was too bitter because not much else is going on in that one. The Arugula Princess Salad was also okay but I probably won't get it again. I usually order on DoorDash and select the pick up option. Super fast and easy.

The braised lamb was tender but $19 for a lamb wrap seemed a bit too much for me I also had an orange blossom lemonade which was quite refreshing. Not sure I'd come back knowing that it was so hard to have a conversation with those at my table.

Most recently I finally was able to give them a try. So glad we did! We came around lunch time and sat at a booth. There were other worker bees grabbing a quick lunch. The service was quick, efficient and friendly, and we ordered the French onion soup to start, and split the fried chicken sandwich and Philly cheesesteak sandwich. The sandwiches come with a side, so one plate we did fries with a house-made aioli and the other plate, their quinoa kale salad. Delicious. Such hearty portions! The bread is so fresh, the meat juicy and ample, and flavors just right. We also ordered beer on tap, shoutout to Oakland United, and tried their house-made hot sauce that they also sell by the bottle. Would love to come back to try brunch here too. I also saw a patron ordering the quinoa kale salad with fried chicken, and yes, that's the vibe! Pricing is fair for the quality and quantity, and street parking available (although the restaurant is located at the bottom of Solano where it tends to be a bit more busy). Women-owned biz, and they also were on Check Please! Bay Area.

My meal came with potatoes, though, and I thought those were cooked perfectly--soft on the inside with a little crunch on the outside. My husband ordered the carb sampler, and when his food came out, there was no syrup. I'm assuming the server simply forgot to bring it, but we ended up having to flag down another employee to get some. I remember seeing someone comment that the food was more aesthetically pleasing than it tasting good, and honestly, I have to agree. The pictures on Yelp look fantastic, but taste-wise, I thought the food was just okay. Nothing was bad, but nothing really stood out to me either. The service could definitely use some improvement. After being seated, we waited about 5-10 minutes before our server came over to take our order. She only checked in on us once, and by the time she did, we were already halfway through our meal. After finishing our meal, we had to wait another 10 minutes for her to give us a tab, again I had to flag her down for the tab. Overall, the food was just okay, and the service left a lot to be desired. Based on the overall experience, I don't think I'd come back. If you plan on visiting, I'd recommend checking in on Yelp ahead of time to avoid a potentially long wait during busy hours.
