This place has FRESH tasty salads for CHEAP The place use to be called Salad House when the old management was around. To be honest you get a lot of food regardless, but the old management was WAY better. You can get a delicious filling small cobb salad for under $5.00! read more

I absolutely love coming here for lunch. There is ALWAYS a line up during lunch hours, but the line moves fast. Their portions are huge even when you order a small - you definitely get your money's worth. My favourites from here would be the Cobb salad and the Smoked Salmon salad. Great thing about this place is that you can substitute the toppings in your salad for anything else so you are paying for exactly what you want to eat! This is definitely my favourite go-to place if I'm craving a healthy meal! read more

How can they survive with such a low price? I give them 10/10 as it is worth every cent. Fresh and Delicious... I see this location as "take out" I totally recommend Salad days. I will go there every day if I can. The only issue is that it is cash only. I am pretty sure customers do not mind pay 5% more and use their credit card if they don't have cash on them. read more

Great place for a salad on a budget. Wasn't too impressed with the smoked salmon but everything else is solid. Very much worth the price

Chicken lunch special is my jammy jam. Jam all night on that salad. After the price increase on their whole menu, going there is a little less exciting for my wallet, but when I am craving a zesty & filling salad, S days sets me right the heck up. For 6.75 clams you get some kick butt crispy fresh lettuce, cubed cucumbers and tomato, two dolma's, two ice cream sized scoops of mashed sweet potatoes, generous dollops of feta cheese, humus, tzatziki, a medium sized piece of their signature spiced chicken breast, and dressed with a nice home-made vinaigrette. I went their yesterday after realized I haven't eaten a single vegetable for nearly two weeks, and realized I needed to stave off scurvy, so I RAN, not walked to salad days. Fore some reason, their chicken that day, which is usually flavourful and midlly spiced was covered in chilli flakes and nearly made me choke. But the humus and tzatziki balanced things out for the most part. And now I wont get scurvy. SCHWING. read more

Definitely worth the wait in the longest line ever. And because i wanted to try a little of all of their ingredients, i decided to customize my salad. overloaded with healthy yumminess it is absolutely scrumptious!! read more

The Salad House can be tricky to find but it's well worth searching out this local gem. Located inside Cumberland Terrace, you'll be able to spot the Salad House by it's long line of lunch regulars. Expect to wait 10-15 minutes to get your salad (they offer wraps as well), it's worth the wait. I'm a big fan of the Cobb salad which seems to be a crowd favorite with most patrons. They jam-pack a takeout container with romaine lettuce, tomato, cucumber, chunks of seasoned chicken breast, avocado, tons of corn and chickpeas, half a hard-boiled egg and either feta or blue cheese, topped with a tasty house vinaigrette. Sometimes I can't even finish this in one sitting which makes the low-price tag (about $8) even more appealing. Stick that baby in the fridge at work and I've got a snack for that afternoon craving. read more

$5.30 tax in, for a delicious Cobb salad (small size), that is arranged with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, corn, avocado, feta cheese, Olives, half an egg, and some chicken slices. It's enough to make you content. Extremely fresh and delicious. Definitely going to be here often for lunch! Cash only, long lineups during prime times. read more

Salad Days - Cobb salad (small) - Food Stands Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Salad House is a tiny gem of a place in Yorkville for lunch-it used to be in Roy Square but after the development there it has resettled into the Cumberland Terrace mall on the street level. Just a small take out joint selling salads, soups and wraps but at wallet friendly prices.....everything here is easily priced here under $10, large salads coming to 6-7 unlike the Lettuce eateries sprouting up around town or Fast Fresh Foods downtown. You can start with a base salad and add a few extra fixin's from eggs to beans for extra buck. All in all a cheap place to grab a quick lunch at Yonge and Bloor. read more

Great value! Try not to come around the lunch hour rush. Even though I got there around 1:15pm, there was still about a 15 minute line. I can imagine a much longer wait around noon. I got the greek salad with chicken breast, dolmades, and two scoops of sweet potato mash and was very happy with the portion size and the price (~$7). The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the chicken breast which tasted boiled/steamed rather than grilled. Other than that it was a great flavour combination especially with the hearty dollops of hummus and tzatziki. The restaurant is located on the concourse level - just follow the signs to the food court and you will see it along the way. Also, they take credit card now! read more

It was slightly hard to get to, but once my friend and I found it, it was smooth sailing from there. The place was a lot smaller than we expected it to be (it has just enough space for people to go in, order, and get out), but there was a seating area just outside the 'food stand' that could accommodate a good number of people. I ordered the lunch special, a greek salad with grilled chicken, mashed sweet potatoes, and stuffed vine leaves, $6.45, which was equivalent to the size of a large salad. My friend ordered the small greek salad, $4.85. Both of our salads were so filled that the containers could barely close! For my lunch special, the chicken felt a touch undercooked, but was by no means inedible. The mashed sweet potatoes were under-seasoned for my liking. The stuffed vine leaves, although I've never had stuffed vine leaves before, tasted as though there was room for improvement. However, my friend and I really enjoyed the greek salad by itself so we will come back for that, especially at the price that it is. While we were waiting for our food, I started chatting with a man who I can only assume was the owner of the place. He was very kind, just as the rest of the employees. After we paid, we went to sit at the seating area. The owner saw us sitting, came over, and asked how everything was, all the while still beaming as before! He left and we thought that that was it. But he came back out with bottled water for each of us and said that he "had a surprise for us"! Ok... wonder what that could be? Well, a few minutes later he came back to our table and gave us a spinach roll! It was probably because we were first-time customers but regardless, it was a really nice and unexpected gesture! As mentioned above, we will definitely be back! read more

Cheap and healthy and I love how they don't charge extra for avocado!!! There's a line up during lunches but it's worth the wait! read more

Salad Days - Smoked salmon salad - Food Stands Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

The best value for a lunch anywhere near here. I love this place and will continue to be a regular here. The small salads are the perfect size for a lunch. The lines get crazy at lunch on weekdays so allow yourself an extra 10 min if you're planning on going here. The fattoush salad is amazing (if you're extra hungry, ask for extra pita in it for only 76 cents extra.) The Cobb salad is another favourite of mine. I've never had a bad lunch here. Service is quick and friendly. Would definitely recommend. read more

Amazing custom salads for $5! And in Yorkville! The box they put it in may seem small but they CRAM IT FULL! Don't believe me? Empty the contents onto a dinner plate or into big salad bowl - you won't be disappointed! There is always a huge lunch line but it's worth it. Your belly and wallet will be grateful. read more

Delicious, cheap, and filling I got the small cobb salad and they filled the container so much that it almost spilled out when I lifted the lid. It tasted great and I was very satisfied for just $5. The store is very small and kind of hidden within the building. Just follow signs to the food court once you get inside and you'll find it across Esther's Soup Kitchen. Will definitely be back! read more

When I'm in the mood for a salad lunch, this is where I go. Yes, the line up is long, but there's a reason for that. The salads are meals. Not these measly little boxes you get from Freshii. My go to is always the large Cobb. What you get with that is a huge container of satisfying crunch that covers all the food groups in one meal. Who doesn't love a generous scoop of avocado with their meal? Considering the area, $8 for a meal salad is actually quite the steal. read more

What to say about Salad Days that hasn't already been said? Generous portions of fresh and tasty salads at a very reasonable price. The "Lunch Special" is one of the most delicious salads I have ever eaten and for $6.20 cannot be beat! Definitely worth a try if you're in the area! read more

Salad Days - The "Lunch Special" ($6.20) is a Greek salad with chicken, sweet potatoe, stuffed vine leaves, hummus & tahini. So delicious! - Food Stands Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

One of the best, most affordable salad places in Toronto. I always get the hummus salad for around $5. They give you a lot of hummus with chick peas, veggies and even a pita. It's super delicious! I could have salads from here everyday. The only point to note is that this place is cash only. It's also only open during the weekdays and closes at 4 pm. Highly recommend this place! I will definitely be going back and trying their entire menu read more

Love this quick place! Line is usually very long but the service is so nice and food is fresh and large-portioned for cheap price! read more

What a gem of a place, all I have to say is: -Affordable -Large portions -Great Food -Flexible -Fast What else can you ask for during the Lunchtime rush?? If you work in the area you must give this place a try. read more

Salad days is a great healthy option for lunch and dinner. I've tried their salads and menu options during the lunch time rush when there is always an extremely long line-up, and also for dinner, closer to their closing time. I'd have to say that their food is of higher quality earlier in the day, and by dinner time, it's usually the leftover salad, and chicken, and they quickly run out of salmon fillets. I have to mention though that the consistency of the chicken breast is a bit off, as it tastes a bit rubbery and 'manufactured'. The staff are very pleasant and efficient, and the prices are reasonable, especially for their generous portions. I will most definitely come here again, but probably for lunch rather than dinner. read more

I don't really need to review this place seeing all the good reviews below, but my experience was so good that I feel inspired to write one. While it's true that the lines are long at lunch time, the workers have it running like a well-oiled machine and I got to the front in no time. The service came with a smile which is pleasantly surprising given the crowd that these people have to deal with at lunch. Their salad special, comprised of Greek salad, stuffed grape leaves, chicken, hummus, tzatziki and a couple of dollops of mashed sweet potatoes (random...but I'm not complaining) is a phenomenal deal at $7 including taxes. The portion is enough for 2 meals - this coming from someone with a pretty big appetite (all I had for dinner was soup after having this at lunch). The salad was super fresh and very tasty. I usually feel ripped off after getting lunch downtown but I am quite satisfied with everything about this place. Will be my new go-to spot for lunch. read more

This is a great place for a quick lunch that costs less than 10 bucks and you feel full and it's healthy. I always get the salmon special and the portion sizes are just bursting out of the container. My go to place, better than going to Subway! read more

I have been a regular at this place for years. They used to make huge salads and I never paid more than $6.I have noticed recently they have been stringent with the toppings and the prices always fluctuate, They opened a second location and this is when it all went downhill. There are lots of staff, most of whom don't even speak English. Too bad. read more

Yup, I come here for my salad fixes which is basically 2-3 times a week. At $5.30 for a small cobb salad (which trust me, most of the time fills 86% of most people until dinner rolls around), it's a good deal. Yes, some may say, whatever they're doing you can do it at home. Which is true, and for $5.30 to some it might seem ridiculous AND prices have gone up from the past. But I guess to this one sucker here who doesn't have the time to normally cook at home or prepare a lunch, I'm a fan. So here's my $5.30, I don't mind being a labelled a 'sucka.' Note: Feel free to ask to substitute certain options for others. For an example, don't want cheese, you can ask for beets instead. read more

I was looking for a lunch place around where I work, and in checking out the Yelp reviews for one restaurant, someone commented saying Salad House and Salad Days are some of the best places for salad. I looked up Salad House first, but turns out they have long lines at lunch, and also accept only cash (which I wasn't carrying). I turned my attention to Salad Days, and my problems were solved when I saw that they're on Ritual. Not only does that mean I can pay through card, but also that I wouldn't have to wait in line for my order. I ordered a small Cobb salad on Ritual, and it was ready when I got there. There was a line-up, so I'm pretty glad I was able to order ahead. You can also call and have them prepare the order, and it usually takes under 5 minutes. It's worth it to note that I'm really not much of a salad eater, but I really enjoyed this one. It was a blend of great flavours, they had plenty of chicken - I also added salmon for just $1.45. One of the best parts was that they didn't hold back on the avocado, and it lasted the entire meal. Even though I ordered the small salad, which comes in small box as well, don't be deceived by the outward appearance of the box. I emptied the salad out on a plate, and it filled the entire plate - I was definitely full by the end. I just got the lemon vinaigrette dressing, and that gave it plenty of flavour. Service: 5/5 Speed: 5/5 Accuracy of order: 5/5 Avocado helping: 5/5 Price: 5/5 (just over $6 for the salad, unreal) read more

Great salad place in Cumberland Terrace. This is by no means gourmet, but everything is fresh and the portions are very fair. I had a small Cobb salad and was satisfied with the taste and the amount. I'm glad to discover this place, as it's in a little bit of a food dead zone. This will be my go-to when I need a quick inexpensive lunch around Yorkville. read more

Tasty YES. But owners: take a tip and look at IQ foods menu (2 locations downtown). Id rather pay a bit more for ORGANIC produce, avocado, organic eggs, hormone free chicken etc. Please get with the health needs of the health conscious and offer more choices even if more expensive, we will buy it. ANd do takeout boxes for dinner like IQ foods for the densely populated bay/bloor area. Freshi in the area needs to clean up their act as well. read more

Salad Days has opened at Yonge Bloor Subway and I am so happy! I actually hate salads however they make them filling and wonderful! Love their special salad too witht he grape leaves and sweet potato!!! I am going to be going there everyday! And they are so accomodating because I take subway in morning to work at Yonge and Finch and I get my salad in the morning and keep it till lunch time!! Yonge and Finch does not have nice health options so this place has been a life saver!! THANK YOU!!!! read more

One of the few places in the area where you can get a lunch with a drink for under $10. The fact that it's mostly healthy stuff is a great bonus! Portions are substantial, no wimpy salads here. If you get here during the lunch rush (11:30ish-2:00ish), expect a lineup. The line moves quickly and despite the small space, is very efficient. I really like the special: chicken breast, greek salad, stuffed vine leaves and sweet mashed potatoes. read more

I know this place is cheap but don't have the chicken it doesn't taste good and the corn was old. It had good and bad days but it's not always fresh read more

While $6 sounds like a lot for a salad, these salads are more like a full meal and fairly calorie dense. I can eat 30 pieces of sushi and still not feel full, so while $6 sounds like a lot for a salad, it fills me up. The flavor is pretty good, but nothing mind blowing. There isn't some amazing salad dressing you've got to try or anything. It's just some good ingredient combined together to make a filling meal that tastes fresh. read more

the salad special is incredible! it's a great affordable option for those of us who have no time to cook, ate out few too many times in a week and need something nutritious to balance out what we've done to our bodies ;) not mention it is soooo delicious!!!! The line moves fast but i use ritual to get points, and get in and out of the place in under a minute =P!! read more

$4.20 for a salad so big I can't even finish it? HELLO! This place always has a long line and for good reason. They pack your little take out containers shock full of fresh salad ingredients. You can go the 'make your own' route if you're picky, but most people choose their pre-made deliciousness. Cobb salad is my favourite of the ones I've tried. Oh ya, and the guys behind the counter are so smiley and friendly. They work so quickly and still take the time to smile. If you're in the area, this place is worth your time and money. FYI: CASH ONLY read more

The salad days of Salad Days were back when it was Salad House. That's salad irony. They charge $2.50 for chicken and $1 for smoked salmon or tuna. But whenever I swap out the meat in my Cobb salad for fish, the cubed chicken becomes 2 tiny scant pieces of salmon, if I'm lucky. Huh? They also throw in just a little bit less of everything now: less avocado, three carefully counted olives, and no longer the beloved problem of closing the lid. I guess with the perma-queue out the door, they can afford to cut some corners. The previous owner was anything but skimpy, so the change in management is definitely notable. It's still the best salad option in the neighbourhood though, so whatever, I'll see you there at 12:30. UPDATE (11/29/2013): There was a long hair in my salad today. I think it's safe to say today was a very dark Salad Night. read more

This place is no longer worth it after raising prices, especially for the salad special.

Excellent quality food, healthy and super affordable. I've changed jobs and have moved out of the downtown financial district. I was asking around the office for something healthy and cheap and was given directions to Salad Days. Along the way I realised I'd eaten here once before and remembered loving their salad - so much provided for so little. I was feeling like some carbs so got the Chicken Cobb pita wrap which was huge for $7.60, I was able to eat half then and the other half later. Service was friendly and quick, I thought it might have been quick due to me arriving at 11:30am, however I went back today around 12:30 (I'm so bad at bringing lunch to work!) and the line was out the door, yet I didn't wait more than 5 minutes to be served. I had the lunch special Greek salad with mashed sweet potato and two vine leaves - another winner. I don't think you can go wrong at this place! Highly recommend! read more

I have tried this place twice when I've been in the area and in a rush, looking to pick up something light. Saw the rave reviews on Yelp, but coasting on a good price point and enticing variety isn't going to do it for me. I need more. The two things that I have tried (small cobb salad and daily special, fish version) were not fresh at all and I couldn't even finish the special. The olives tasted off, as did the sweet potato mash. I won't be returning, not that they need my business - this spot is so popular! read more

Love the Cobb salad here. Lettuce, corn, chicken, avocado, olives, cheese, tomatoes.... All heaping and all for $4.75!!!!!!

Had the Cobb salad as there are too many options. The staff behind the counter forgets that not everyone knows how the system works. My wife tried to order a custom salad but it was difficult to communicate. Bottom line the food was excellent. Would definitely return. read more
