I thought I would try grabbing a salad here instead of my usual Local Foods or Mendocino farms. I didn't expect the same quality as it's more of a fast food place, but I expected the salad of the same size to be less expensive than the other well-known, high quality restaurants. Plus, it's only a three block walk from my home as opposed to about 2 miles to Local Foods and 3/3.5 miles to Mendocino Farms. The ingredients were definitely not as high quality and obviously didn't have the same atmosphere as Mendocino Farms or Local Foods (as per my expectations), but I thought I was making a trade off between quality, atmosphere, and the cost I pay at these other establishments. However, even though the larger Salata salad was about the same size or a little smaller than the other establishments, it was several dollars more expensive. I will definitely not be sacrificing the quality and the convenience in the future. read more

Excellent experience at Salata. The ingredients are fresh, there is a great variety of options to customize your salad, and the restaurant is very clean. I would especially like to recognize Maggy, who was friendly, helpful, and professional throughout my visit. Definitely a highly recommended place to enjoy a healthy and delicious meal. read more

Salata - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

When I feel like I need some healthy fiber I stop by to get their salad. Love how you can customize a colorful bowl. Easy meal that doesn't feel heavy. Easy take out or dine in. Haven't brought my kiddos yet, but it's nice they have a kids meal too. Seating area is ok, but I normally just do take out. Service is like any other cafeteria line places read more

Fresh ingredients and lots of options to build your own salad. Everything tasted really good and the staff was friendly. Definitely a good place if you want something healthy but filling. Ms Elia, Maggie and Maria were super friendly and professional. Great team read more

Pretty decent spot. Service is quick and reliable. They never screw up my order. I feel like the costs are a little high for some grass but overall it's pretty tasty. My girl loves this spot, so I can't complain. Definitely recommend. read more

There's "alata" locations of Salata, so each one needs to live up to standards, and this one is far, far below. They get an extra star for having some nice employees, but that's where it ends. Some of the employees here were pretty nice which is about the only good thing I can say about this location. Very disappointing on a lot of levels. Smaller salad than expected and a lot of the stuff was wilted or rotten and definitely not what I was hoping for. We've been here four or five times just because of proximity to where we were working out, and it has been a pretty consistently bad quality salad, with excellent service at times, not so much others, and really disappointing and wilted salad salads to the extent that we now avoid this location. 1 star for salad, 4 for service, averages to 2. However, I added a 3rd star because anywhere that Barbi can look this good, this often, can't be all bad. read more

Salata is one of my go to places for a quick but healthy meal. I hadn't been in a while, so I'm not sure if it's specific to this location, but I was happy to see more variety of protein in the Heights location. This time, I ordered a cucumber wrap with chipotle shrimp, carrots, cucumbers, chick peas, black beans and honey mustard dressing. My friend ordered a similar wrap with chicken. Salata offers plenty options, so you won't be disappointed. Their juices are tasty without being overly sweet too! read more

I have to admit, I have forgotten all about salata! But they just have so much to offer, spring mix, arugula, spinach ... beets, eggs. Cucumber, beans, edamame, .... I mean can I just live here??? Imagine eating salata everyday, I'm sure my skin would be glowing, or I could turn into popeye the sailor man lol. I decided to go with lemon vinaigrette for salad dressing and I really like the options available! My protein: Crab mix with shrimp. I always feel so good after leaving here! Enjoy y'all! read more

Salata - Nothing like your own custom salad - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

I started off great with my salads being prepped and was switch to another person to finish. She was wearing a tag labeled in training. From there it went all down hill for me. I believe new worker in training should be with someone helping them to guide them. If they're good to go, set them on the floor without the label. This specific person in training grabbed my toppings with her hands. I understand they wear gloves there but I don't appreciates glove latex in my food. She then realized it and switch back to spoons and tongs. Also, usually this location doesn't have issue giving the right portion of toppings in your salad but today it's just all wrong. It's not about the value of the salad, it's the logic of dos and don'ts read more

I LOVE SALATA!!!! Fresh salad on demand. However, this particular location, Houston Heights, is the worse location I've been to. Letting all my friends and my City of Houston coworkers know not to patronize this location anymore as well. They are the stingiest location in Houston, TX and the surrounding areas. GIVE YOUR CUSTOMERS WHAT THEY PAY FOR. IF YOU ASK FOR EXTRA VEGGIES, THEY PINCH A LITTLE BIT AND KEEP MOVING. ASK FOR MORE AND THEY GET AN ATTITUDE, HELL IT'S VEGGIES! GO TO THE RIVER OAKS LOCATION DOWN THE STREET 1440 W GRAY. You'll love it there! You get what you pay for without asking for extra. AND... the environment is pleasant. read more

This location is in the Heights.We are not happy with this restaurant at all.Dined in with friends, and we were ALL disappointed!!! The staff do not greet customers upon entrance. Some employees just stare. Employee' s may rush you through the line so they can get back to their conversations. I went to wash my hand, and the restroom was dirty!! There are too many employees standing around doing nothing. The restaurant was empty and now we know why.We won't be back. read more

Build your own salad or wrap spot. The location is nice they have a couple chairs and tables out front. Parking can get a little pack during lunch time around 12:30. What is also good is that you can order it on line as well. When you walk in you see all the fresh ingredients and the offer seasonal items from time to time. The offer 2 salad size and a protein box for kids. The make and also sell the salad dressing. For wraps you have different ones to choose from. My favorite is cool cucumber. Nice selection of meat or seafood and something for vegetarians. This is one of my favorite salad spots when I want something light. read more

Salata - Always good just could of been wrapped a little tighter. - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

This Salata was decent. Since they closed my favorite Salata location inside of city centre I had to venture out for my salad fix. This location is definitely skimpy on the lettuce and toppings. I ordered a large and it looked more like a small after it was prepared. I have been a Salata customer for over three years and i have to admit I've never left hungry. Today I was still hungry. read more

Salata - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

I LOVVVVVEEEEEEEE Salata DO MUCH!!!!!!!!!! I'm so picky with salads and these are THE BEST! Literally could eat them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and I practically do. Everything is fresh af and their proteins are SO GOOD as well. I just went to NYC and was sad to see the Salata on Broadway was permanently closed so I think we should work on opening that up again! I would visit and leave a review for every Salata if I could! I actually just might! SERIOUSLY OBSESSED WITH THIS PLACE. Oh several locations are closed on Sundays but there are a few that are open. If you're in this area specifically the one on Shepherd is opened on Sunday! 5 STARS from me read more

I love salata! However this location was a big disappointment. The service was not great, they seemed like they didn't want to be there and they be giving you the smallest amount of toppings. Like if I ask for double cucumbers that means I want more... don't just give me 3 more pieces.... they be skimping on our salads for the price we pay it's upsetting. Management please look into this! I just went through and read all of the bad reviews about how this location always skimp on the salad and toppings!! It seems like management has not fixed this problem... read more

This place was alright for a fast and light meal. I came here for lunch (12:30p-ish) on Saturday with a friend. The line was pretty long, but it moved quickly. I ordered a small salad and filled up the bowl with a lot of items. One thing I wasn't too fond of about this place is that adding protein is way more pricy than I think it should be. My salad ended up being close to $11, and at that point I think I would have rather had a poke bowl (which would have been cheaper and more novel). A small salad was large enough to fill me up, though. This place is good for its 1) quick service and 2) variety of salad toppings/ingredients. Further, the ingredients seemed fresh! However, if I'm about to bust out $11 for a lunch, I'd go someplace else. Parking situation: on-site. read more

I will definitely be back to pick up a quick dinner one way from work to school! read more

Great salads... I love, love, love Salata. Their food is always fresh and that is what I look for. The restaurant is clean and they keep their toppings bay clean for the most part (sometimes they over stuff the lettuce and it gets mixed in with the kale, you get a surprise in your kale salad... other times reaching for the topping could cause them to mix- I guess as long as you are not allergic you are fine!). Overall, I can eat salad every day, as I just love salads that much. Suggestions to take into consideration for this store: cute kale smaller, dont water down Ginger Lime dressing, scan each item to ensure that they are not accidently mixing (e.g. no eggs in the cheese). Other than that, this location gets a thumbs up from me! read more

Plenty of parking, and now I think about it, it is probably due to the rude employees. I entered the establishment happy and ready to eat a fresh salad, and the employee at the bar seem like she was busy writing something important. It was so important, she didn't acknowledge me, but the guy all the way at the cash register did. I'm standing here looking like a dumb ass, while the female employee continues to write what seems to be important. Finally, after a minute and a half wait, the lady employee still don't greet me and ask me, "Salad or wrap?" I said hello, how are you? She was really fucking rude!!! I proceed politely to place two orders, and I found myself asking her if she could add more than 5 cucumber bites to a regular salad, more bean sprouts, more carrots...I mean geeesshh, at this point I'm asking myself, "Do I have to do your job for you?" I get to the middle of the salad bar where she was writing her important document, and I noticed it was her personal grocery list. You were rude to me for no reason, and did not greet me because your personal grocery list was more important. At this point, I am not surprised, but they have definitely lost my business, my husband's business, and his colleagues' business. We will never recommend the entire Salata chain to anyone. Salata's began with nice portions for the price, and in recent months, I found customers asking for more toppings just like I was. I did an experiment to see if every Salata location was the same. I dined downtown, West Gray, Greenway, and Heights. Different locations, but they all have the same things in common...angry looking employees, and skimpy on salad toppings. At the end of the day, I can pick up a salad at Whole Foods, Central Market, Salad Extravaganza, Cheesecake Factory, Oceanaires, or Phoenician Specialty Market. If Salata is planning on staying for years to come, they sure better go back to the basics of nice employees, great customer service, and decent topping portions. read more

Let me start off by saying that I frequent Salata. I go there at least once per week and up to 3 times per week. I do like the food. They have a plethora of fresh toppings and allow you to build your own salad. What I'm annoyed by is how much I spent today for such a relatively small portion. This is my second time at this particular location and because I wanted to avoid the lunch traffic, I decided to order ahead for pick-up. That was a big mistake! I ordered a regular salad (which is their larger salad). I usually eat this salad over a 2 day period, but definitely not today. When I typically go in and place my order to go, my to go box is usually pretty full. Today I feel as a result of ordering beforehand, they really cut down their servings. I feel taken advantage of for ordering ahead. If they are only going to give me half a salad, then I think they should charge half the price! read more

Salata - It'S alata disappointment! Don't order ahead! Half the amount given for the full price. - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

Love the concept and the options but I cannot stand being rushed especially when I was the only one in the salad line. Plus you ask fir mushrooms and they throw 3 slivers on the salad. Actually everything I ask for I always have to ask 1 or 2 more times to add to it. Hate being rushed especially when it comes to food. read more

Overall great place for a salad. Many different ingredients in a make your own style salad. The large is enough for two esp if you get lots of add ons. Botton line...make your own salad with plenty of good quality ingredients to choose, fast service and clean ambience read more

I'm a major fan. Tonight was my first time at any Salata and I will definitely be back. They were helpful, quick and the wrap I got is delicious! They offer a discount if you're a student - the server told me this totally unprompted because my credit card has an OSU logo on it. All the ingredients were fresh and the chicken was the best I've ever had from a salad bar. I can't wait to go back and try even more options. read more

Salata - Delicious but huge wrap! Only $8 with tax, it's a great deal. - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

Overpriced. Every thing costs extra including meats. Much too expensive to dine on a regular basis. Food is subpar.

Could not have given me smaller portions. 4 pieces of broccoli $4 for 6 little pieces of turkey on $12.99 salad wrap. read more

I was a Salata virgin until today -- a wrong turn took me into this shopping center -- but I'm glad I found it. Fast, filling and flavorful -- you can't lose! This is a fast-casual salad chain. I'd almost call it "gourmet" salads, because the ingredients go above and beyond. When I got there around noon, the line was LONG. But the staff there kept it moving super quickly. It was my turn in maybe three to five minutes. (I should add that this is not a "buffet" -- servers put your salad together for you, so this works a lot like a cafeteria.) You can get a wrap, but I ordered a salad bowl. (The small is good for you is you eat normal size lunches. The regular for $8 is monstrous, which is of course what I got!). YOu get your choice of different types of greens... then tons and tons of veggies. You've got your basics (cucumbers, carrots, etc.) but then here come the goodies (sun-dried tomatoes, jicama, artichoke hearts, etc.)... Then we get to the proteins (what kind of meat (or tofu/quinoa/falafel/seafood) would you like?) There's a charge, but it's well worth it. And of course, there are tons of dressings. I saw two kinds of ranch, but I got ginger-lime. Want it topped? Are you a crouton person? Maybe pumpkin seeds? it's all there. And then, you can order a side of soup if you like, or some bread, but trust me -- that huge salad will be more than enough! Expect to spend around $10, depending on options and drinks. It's a healthy way to spend it and still leave with a full belly. Love it here! read more

Absolutely delicious and fresh! I got the seafood mix for my meat, buttermilk ranch dressing and a ton of toppings including black beans, cabbage, corn, and almonds. This was the best salad I've ever had!!! Staff was very friendly and helpful as well. The only reason I didn't give five stars is because my salad with a slice of wheat bread and a drink was $13. I little pricey for a salad meal. read more

Salata - I got the seafood mix, buttermilk ranch dressing, and a ton of yummy toppings. So delicious - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

I started working in the area recently and I love salata so I've been many times over the last two weeks and in every visit a large salad results in a different portion. I don't understand why there is no system to gauge the amount of greens you get. The employees eyeball the amount and give an attitude when you question it. I understand English is not everyone's first language but the employee gave me the wrong topping more than once and was not able to understand what I was asking for, she seemed very frustrated with me. I hope this location improves because it is close to my job and I'd like to keep going. read more

This location sucks. I love salata and all their other locations. First off the 90% of the employees here are not friendly or seems like they don't want to be there. All other locations they are helpful and friendly. Lupita in general was off putting. Second of all they skimp on everything here. Even cashier wasn't friendly nor seems like he wanted to be there. Definitely not going to this location again. Rather drive an extra 5 mins elsewhere. read more

It was my first time her at Salata and I have to say I'm impressed. Even if you're not a salad person you will find everything you ever want on a salad here. I put so much stuff on my salad bowl and it was amazing! Highly recommend this place. The only thing I didn't like is it is a little over priced. Great customer service though. read more

Salata - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

I come here every once in a while, and I always love their salads. The ingredients seem very fresh, everyone is very nice. I usually order online to pick up and my order is always correct. It is a little pricey ($11 for a regular salad with chicken), but if you're a teacher they would comp off $2 when you showed your teacher ID, and that's always nice! It doesn't work if you're ordering online though, since there is no where to list it. read more

I've passed this location a few times and always said I would eventually stop in. I finally had the opportunity to check out Salata in the Heights. The customer service was A1. I had never been so I was very appreciative of the young lady that assisted me by preparing my salad bowl and explaining how things work. Of course I got my meal to go and was also happy once I got home and enjoyed my meal. It was very filling and tasty. I will return in the future. read more

Heights area outpost of the preeminent Houston area salad bar chain - very consistent with all other locations. Not as cheap as other quick stop food options (i.e. Subway, etc.) but the portion sizes are large and the ingredients are always very fresh. At lunch, they have plenty of employees to keep the line moving. At dinner, you may have to wait a few minutes as they typically only have 2-3 employees working. My biggest complaint about this location is that parking in the evenings is sometimes near impossible. A popular seafood restaurant (Star Fish) opened in this strip center last year and their customers tend to monopolize availabile parking (and for long periods of time, as Star Fish is a sit down, waiter-service restaurant). Final note: the Kroger at 1440 Studemont offers coupons for this location on the back of store receipts. For the longest time, they were offering $2 off a salad, reducing the cost of large salad from $12 to $10 (great deal). More recently, this offer has changed to free soup with salad (not as great). read more
