BYO bowl, went with Lamb & Chicken
Josh A.

As someone who loves Cava, I was delighted to find out that there is a restaurant with a similar concept nearby that is 100% halal, seed oil free, and locally owned. Sala just opened recently and I had to try it asap. I went with a bowl and got a side of pita and their creamy garlic sauce. The food tastes homemade. They use fresh ingredients and you can absolutely tell. Very friendly staff. They gave me good recommendations and even let me try some of the meats beforehand. I highly recommend Sala if you're in the area.

Located right in downtown Walnut Creek and close walking distance from the mall. Parking can be challenging with two parking garages near by. Food line does move fast but with every new place a wait would be expected. Lots of choices such as signature bowls, wraps, make your own. portions are smaller compared to other similar restaurants. Only able to get three sauces vs unlimited. Toppings are capped too. For price and taste id say 3.5 stars . More can be desired.

Ancient grains, hummus, arugula, harissa, slaw, pickled red onions and falafel

On 5/17/2026, my wife and I, had a really great experience at "Sala Grill". The service was great and the food was amazing. The place is spacious with lots of seating inside and outside. We created our own Mediterranean bowl and it was excellent. They also have the best baklava that I have ever tasted. If you are looking for something delicious and healthy Sala grill is a must try. All in all, I give Sala grill five

Place is very clean and welcoming! The staff were friendly and patient as there are lots of options! I did a build your own bowl which was huge and delicious! The sauces were so flavorful and the dips as well! I did falafel and lamb, which the falafel was perfect and not dry at all. I personally didn't love the lamb as I wish it was more of gyro style and shaved not chunks of it. The pita chips were so good but very small portion for the size you pay for it. Overall very good and I'll go back and try again!

Saffron and pistachio delight

My son and I came here for dinner. It was delish! I am so full! My son ordered the Mezze Market and I ordered the Falafel Souk. Also ordered the strawberry lemonade and some delight candy. My falafel bowl was delish. I asked to get three of the sauces as I wanted to try them. All three (spicy harissa, hummus and tzatziki) were delish. My son liked the spicy one more. The bowls are a nice size, I am still very full. Nice protein portion. Th saffron rice was delish. Got my greens too and added some beets. I loved the Saffron delight while my son liked the pistachio delight more. All was great. Service was quick. We were starving and there was no waiting for food. Kind of pick as you go if want anything additional added to the bowl. The service was great from beginning to end. We were welcomed as soon as we enter and they thanked us for visiting. My servers offered to let him know if I wanted to try anything as it was my first time. They had several lemonades. Staff recommended the strawberry and it did not disappoint. I finished it all aside not always finishing my drinks. The tables were clean. There's booth and table seating looking out. Large windows. It's a nice large place.

New must try restaurant in Walnut Creek!! They are still in their soft opening phase but i already came here multiple times and each time is so good. The owners and staff are super nice and welcoming. And the place is clean, modern, and aesthetic, especially for a quick service! I always get a bowl and every bowl I get is super fresh, flavorful, and filling. You seriously cannot go wrong with any of the choices. Their baklava is soooo good too, you need to get it if you come here! Highly recommend checking this place out and will definitely be coming back

Been a while since we went here but I am craving it so bad! its delicious-- has a mixture of flavors that is not too much. food tastes so fresh! the employee helped me with my decisions & was very patient and kind with my indecisiveness. Not too many tables but it's spacious!

mezze market bowl
Molly B.

YUMMMM got the mezze market bowl and wowow everything is so fresh and delicious!! super cool interior, nice patio too! bonus: staff is so friendly and helpful, can't wait to come back and try more! great healthy addition to broadway plaza :))

Came here on my lunch break. It's very nicely decorated inside. It is a chipotle style type of ordering which is nice because you can customize what you want. Service was quick. They were super nice and helpful and allowed me to try the different sauces, dips and sides since they are new. I got the Mezze Market bowl which I liked all of the ingredients inside. The style of bowl reminded me of Nick the Greek, but not as flavorful. It is not anywhere as good as Cava. Overall I couldn't quite put my finger on why it was just okay. The ingredients were all fresh but the flavors weren't as flavorful as other places. I have been back few times because I still like it as a healthier quick option for lunch.

1/2 chicken, 1/2 falafel. Chicken is almost non existent
Donna N.

My bf and I came in the other day for the first time. The flavor and quality was definitely there but lack of protein just doesn't justify the cost in our eyes. The bowl would be amazing for a vegetarian but if you're looking for a well rounded meal with enough actual protein, probably look elsewhere. My bf got 1/2 chicken and 1/2 beef, the total amount of meat was probably 1-2 oz total which is a little absurd considering the price for a bowl. We made more protein at home just to get enough protein intake. Flavor = 4/5 Quality = 5/5 Protein quantity = 1.5

Desserts yummy
Niki L.

Sooo second time there and the food was amazing and super delish! Staff were very friendly and fun :) Ambiance and set up was so nice and clean like the first time i checked out this awesome spot. Got a chicken bowl with everything and a mint lemonade! DELISHHHHHH As far as dessert well what can i say that was amazing too ! Try everything

Sala Mediterranean Grill is a new restaurant offering fast-casual customizable bowls and wraps featuring fresh, vibrant Mediterranean flavors. I started my bowl with a base of romaine and kale, and then tried several protein selections including spiced and grilled chicken, braised beef, braised lamb, and falafel. My favorite was the falafel, which had a nice nutty aroma and crispy exterior. The selection of dips included hummus, tzatziki, spicy harissa, roasted eggplant (very smokey), and muhammara, and each dip was creamy and flavorful in its own way. Then came a selection of toppings, including cucumber tomato salad, tabbouleh, balila (chickpea salad), beet salad, pickled onions, cabbage/carrot/fennel slaw, pickled cucumbers, and feta--each of these was fresh, healthy, and delicious! Finally came a selection of dressings, and my favorite was the Creamy Garlic, which had a delicious garlicky toum flavor but with a pourable consistency. On the side, we had a fluffy, chewy pita bread, which went perfectly with all the different dips. Overall, the food here was fresh, vibrant, and delicious--a great casual addition to Walnut Creek!

Sala Mediterranean Grill is a great new addition to Broadway Plaza. Build your own bowls with fresh, flavorful ingredients and plenty of options. Everything tasted clean and well-balanced, portions are solid, and pricing is fair. Huge shoutout to Assad for bringing this spot to life and amazing service.

As I entered, I eyed Cholita Linda, and since we had already eaten at the place near us, I knew what we wanted and would enjoy for our late lunch or early dinner... a Cubano! For those who might not know, a traditional Cubano sandwich is made with Cuban bread (a white bread loaf with a thin, crispy crust and a soft, airy inside. Usually, a moist palmetto leaf is placed on top of the dough before baking to create its signature split), Mojo-marinated roasted pork (slow-roasted in a marinade made of sour orange juice, garlic, oregano, and cumin), glazed ham (sweet, deli-style sliced ham), Swiss cheese, dill pickles, and yellow mustard. Of course, here in the US, the recipe is adjusted based on the location and available ingredients, but the core stays the same, which makes for a delicious sandwich. Cholita Linda's Cubano is made with pulled pork shoulder, black forest ham, mustard, pickles, aioli, and Swiss cheese on grilled French bread. Trust me when I tell you that it is a delicious version! Anyway, this location is very well managed and maintained. The staff are friendly and the place is clean and nicely kept. They have tables inside and outside the mall. On a warm day, you might prefer to sit outside and enjoy the fresh air while you eat.

My mom and I would…read moresplit a cilantro lime chicken salad, a cup of tomato soup, some bread and lemon waters before shopping. For nostalgia, and since the Stoneridge Nordstrom shut down, we came here on a Saturday afternoon to relive that memory. They still have the salad I've been raving about for years... Clam Chowder (4/5): Yummy and chunky! Roma Tomato Soup (3.5/5): Not as sweet as I remember + smooth and no chunks. I've always liked the bread they give with the soup though. Cilantro Lime Chicken Salad (5/5): This still has the same flavor and it hits every time. Chicken is different but the dressing + cheese is my favorite. Santa Fe Panini (3.5/5): Alright, didn't have the most flavor so I ended up dipping it in the tomato soup. Ask for bread for the table and it's free - Their butter is so fragrant! Order up front before grabbing your table. The service is also as amazing as ever. Everybody working is very kind and attentive. I'd say it's a decent cafe to stop by for a bite while shopping.

My friend had their breakfast sandwich and commented that the bread was super soft and delicious. Happy to know there is a good place to eat within Nordstrom. The booth seating inside was comfortable and good for the kids sitting next to us.

This type of burger is my go-to and I wasn't disappointed. So good and I didn't even request most bbq sauce because it was flavorful enough and not dry (like others make it). My friend got the grilled fish tacos and enjoyed them. Looked delicious and he was satisfied. We were seated quickly at the bar to watch the playoffs and all the servers were checking on us pretty regularly. We were well taken care of.

Later he used the same line at the table next to us and to be honest no one distracted him or talked to him I know because I was trying to get his attention to ask for something after we got the food which someone else got instead. Sister's burger was yummy she got a basic burger and said it was juicy and she liked the upgrade to her fries. I had the Desperado fries- and though coated with things they stayed crunchy, the steak was yummy though I wish it had a little more for the price. Not sure if there were refills to our drinks as we weren't asked but a hat tip to the food runners they were super nice and helpful. We came for lunch and they were busy so maybe on a slower paced day service could have been better and more prompt? Due to lack of parking options and ample offerings in the area we may not make a particular stop here.
