    Thai it up!! Lots of goodness.
    Lrisha H.

    I love Simply Salad Gardena. Thai it up is my favorite. Always good customer service.

    I had a great experience! Chris service was outstanding from start to finish. He was friendly, professional, and genuinely willing to help. They answered all of my questions, made the process easy, and made sure I was completely satisfied. It's refreshing to receive such excellent service. I got the Caesar salad wrap.

    Always on point and the customer service and prep is alway great. They make sure your order is always correct.

    I just came in and Kaleah and the Hispanic or Asian guy were the only two working. They did a good job. I also like that Kaleah put the new hit song on your board!! Super cute.

    Got to the Caesar wrap to go and it was pretty good! Only thing keeping the review from 5 was that the wrap fell apart since it wasn't wrapped all the way but that's ok. The place itself is very clean with lots of parking and seating available. The staff are also very friendly and attentive!

    Out of all the "build your own" Salad places I've tried, simply salad takes 1st place. There's just something about the combination of ingredients I get that makes it SOOOO good and perfect for my taste palette. TRY MY SALAD: Romaine+baby spinach Cilantro Edamame Corn Jalapeños Peperocinis Pickled onions Red onions x2 Grilled chicken Cheese optional Cilantro lime vinaigrette Mixed in medium TRUST MEEE ITS SOOO GOOD!! Also, they don't mix in the dressing for you anymore when you order on the app. :(

    Hair inside my salad bowl
    Alex C.

    I ordered a Cobb Salad through the Simply Salad mobile app order much to my dissatisfaction, I found a hair on the dressing cup inside of the salad bowl. I contacted the restaurant and they had me email the photo. Waiting for a response and a refund or replacement salad. I've never had issues with Simply Salad before but finding a long piece of hair inside of a salad bowl was not a good experience.

    The sad order of Cesar salad
    Cathy A.

    I wanted to share some feedback about my recent visit, as it was unfortunately not up to the standard I've come to expect. In the past, staff have always been happy to accommodate my request for extra lettuce, and those experiences kept me coming back. Today felt different, and I left feeling disappointed. When I received my Caesar salad, the portion of lettuce was noticeably small -- far smaller than what I've received before. When I mentioned this to a staff member, I was told the smaller portion was due to my toppings being placed on the side. I want to clarify that I asked for the croutons and cheese on the side simply because I planned to eat the salad later and didn't want them to go soggy -- not because I wanted less food. For $7.50, I don't think the salad I received reflected good value. The plate felt sparse and underwhelming, and the explanation I was given didn't really address the core issue, which was the lack of lettuce. I've had many great experiences here before, which is why this visit stood out for the wrong reasons. I genuinely hope this was a one-off, because I'd hate for it to put me off returning to a place I've previously enjoyed.

    Love this place! Definitely my grab a salad or wrap go to. My favorite is the Cobb salad and always add extra toppings. Thank you simply salad!!!!

I have driven by this plaza so many times but have never seen this shop here. The signs are really not that visible. We ordered avocado artisan toast, lentil chili, mushroom carne asada, coconut pumpkin curry and hibiscus drink. The avocado toast looked really basic but tasted so amazing. The lentil chili was good but a little too salty for my taste and the mushroom carne asada was a bit too sour for me like ceviche sour level with no seafood. We really liked the coconut curry. That was the highlight of the meal. It came with this spicy sauce but it was like 3/5 spicy level for me lol but went really well w the curry and also the asada. Overall: love the service. The cashier David was really friendly and knowledgeable and also let us try the curry before we ordered. We also met the owner Jason as well and he offered to switch anything out if we didn't like it. They have outdoor seating only which was nice for today. I'm glad I found this place and will def be back again

I've never eaten in, but I've picked up food from here twice and have enjoyed their food at my sister's house at least one other time. The first thing I don't understand is how this place is in Torrance rather than Redondo Beach. I don't mean that I don't understand why they chose Torrance over Redondo Beach; I mean that I just don't understand the two cities' boundaries very well, because this feels like straight-up North Redondo to me. The second thing I don't understand is how this place hasn't expanded or multiplied or otherwise won the hearts and minds and stomachs of South Bayers near and far. But maybe it already has. The third thing I don't understand is why I don't come here more often. It's not that far from my sister's house, and I was dog-sitting there earlier this year. . . . I'm fresh out of things I don't understand. What I do understand is that the owners of this place (an Armenian brother and sister?) are amazing. The food is so good and fresh and flavorful. The menu is kind of all over the place, which in most cases is a red flag, but in the case of more than one restaurant owned and operated by Armenians (I'm including my cousin's restaurant before he sold it and retired), the more different items on the menu, the better. Or at least it's not a red flag. I promise. The combo deal is legit, but even without that deal, the prices are good, especially when you consider the food quality. Writing his review now makes me miss King Mediterrano even though I don't normally miss it or think about it. Those days are over. Next time I have calories to collect in the South Bay, I'm headed straight for Redondo Beach Boulevard.

The baba gannouj lacked its signature smoky flavor, the hummus was disappointing, and the pita was cold and thin. Additionally, the garlic sauce was not to our liking, and while the beef skewer had a good texture, it was under-seasoned. We were also told that potatoes were unavailable because the fryer was being cleaned. Regarding the service, we waited 30 minutes for our order. When I checked on the status after 20 minutes, the counter staff informed me it would be brought out when ready. However, 10 minutes later, our number was called and we had to collect the food ourselves for dine-in. There was about 4 people eating there, but I saw many to go orders go while where there(maybe the reason for the slow service). very spacious and the tvs where nice to have with low volume so you could have a conversation without yelling. I have previously visited your Compton location and found the food there to be delicious, so I hope this feedback is helpful for maintaining that same standard at this location.
