I was in the mood for something healthier, so I tried SoFresh for the first time since I was nearby. Ordering online was easy. I got a warm bowl with brown rice, spinach, cucumber, apple, edamame, citrus chicken thigh, and organic tofu. The portion was solid and filling, especially with the two protein add-ons at extra cost. I also tried the avocado creme sauce, but it was a little spicier than I expected, so I was glad it came on the side. Without it, the bowl tasted a bit plain. I'd still come back and try a different sauce or mix-in combo because it feels like a solid healthy option. Also worth noting: adding a smoothie to a bowl order drops the price to $6 instead of $8, but you have to add it through the bowl order rather than as a separate item. The Tropicolada smoothie was really refreshing and I'd definitely order it again. read more

SoFresh - Design Your Warm Bowl - Salad Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Was craving a healthy lunch and stopped by here for a takeout order. They have large touch screens where you place your order. You can create your own bowl or salad or wrap or choose one from the menu. They also have smoothies. I built a bowl/salad with spinach and red quinoa, and added mushrooms, broccoli and cucumbers. You get 3 toppings and you pay more for extra. Every protein is an additional cost. I got the chicken (around $3 additional). And then you get 1 included dressing, I got the agave mustard. I was pleasantly surprised by the bowl and thought it was tasty! I will say I wish you could get more included with your bowl, places like sweetgreen or cava or even chipotle lets you get however many toppings you want, and it feels more limited here (unless you want to pay extra). It would be nice if they allowed you to have 2 dressings too, 1 seemed kinda stingy. Good for a healthy quick casual meal in Pittsburgh! read more

So Fresh definitely lives up to the name! I stopped by for lunch and got the Cali salad with a strawberry banana smoothie--everything was super fresh, flavorful, and filling. As someone with celiac disease, I really appreciated how easy it was to customize my order to be gluten-free. I let the staff know about my allergy and they were super kind and careful with my order, which made me feel safe and confident eating here. It's such a great option for a quick, healthy meal in the city. I'll definitely be back soon! read more

Great options! Everything is super customizable! My sister in law is vegan and so sometimes going out with her for something can be tricky! But this was great! Had vegan/vegetarian options! Everything was so yummy. Perfect for dining in, or picking up to go! Our food came out super fast! My personal favorite was the comfort bowl, with added corn! We definitely will be returning! Highly recommend! read more

I ordered so fresh through a third-party delivery service and it arrived promptly. I ordered the Greek bowl that comes with brown rice, spinach, tomatoes, chickpeas, feta cheese, cucumbers, and a served with a side of tzatziki sauce I opted to add grilled chicken breast onto it. Everything was good and I really enjoyed the tzatziki sauce! The ingredients definitely tasted super fresh. I would definitely order from this spot again when looking for a healthier option. read more

Still the best for healthy eating. Please open locations in Denver, Colorado. This concept would take off in Colorado.

When we walked in, we were so excited about the prices, but then we quickly realized that every little thing was an add-on so it's actually pretty pricey for a quick meal. It was delicious though. I had an avocado, black bean quesadilla type deal and it was pretty amazing. read more

I really like their food. I get the build your own wrap the food taste very fresh. They have an absolutely delicious tea. Service is very nice - they accidentally gave me the wrong burrito upon pick up so I went back inside and told the worker what had happened and she very swiftly told me that she would remake my burrito fresh. she didn't give me a hard time and admitted that they had made a mistake. I appreciated her kind manner and swiftness to make me the correct burrito over again. I left a very happy customer. There's lots of seating inside however, I took my meal to go, so I can't say anything about the inside eating area. read more

Quick and fresh spot for lunch or dinner. I made my own salad and each ingredient was very fresh and delicious. In my opinion it is pricier than other options, but it was good and what I needed in the moment. read more

I tried the kale and apple smoothie for the first time, it was good but I think I will be trying a different flavor next time. They have a really nice outdoor patio for seating, and decent indoor seating too. The staff was nice as well. read more

SoFresh - KALE & APPLE SMOOTHIE ROASTED SWEET POTATOES - Salad Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Took 45 minutes to get 2 wraps. Must've been an influx of takeout orders but 45 minutes for ordering at the counter was a little wild. Food tasted fine though. read more

SoFresh - Power bowl - Salad Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

SoFresh has an extensive menu with many preset options, as well as the ability to completely customize anything you'd like! We ordered two of the bowls online for pick-up and were very pleased with the process. Ordering was simple and straightforward, and everything was ready when they said it would be. We both loved our bowls - the flavors were great and all the ingredients were fresh. The only negative was that we could've used a little more sauce (the containers came about half filled). Also, the items are a bit pricey for the portion size, but again, everything was tasty. read more

SoFresh - greek bowl - Salad Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Stopped here for lunch. I wasn't sure where to park, but then found out they provide 1 hour of free parking in the garage in the basement of their building. The garage can be accessed off of Centre Ave or behind the building on Spirit Street. I say this because I probably wouldn't have stopped if it hadn't been for this garage, which is kind of hidden. Anyway, for my first visit, I ordered the teriyaki bowl with grilled salmon. I was pleasantly surprised! Everything was fresh, tasty and seemingly healthy. A nice change up to my typical heavier lunch choices. The salmon was good, but slightly over cooked. Really, my only small complaint. read more

Excellent service, positive environment and staff, and the food was extremely fresh, delicious, and as advertised. With SoFresh you truly get what you're seeing in the app. read more

My first time visiting SoFresh today! Everything was super delicious, the staff was friendly, and the homemade sriracha was amazing! Will certainly be back! read more

Customizable, healthy options! Always come fresh and can tell they use quality ingredients.

SoFresh is such a great option if you're looking for something healthy while eating out fast. If you are familiar with Roots, it is similar: they have heathy and filling bowls. However, SoFresh it more diverse. Any flavor you are desiring in a bowl, they will have on the menu. And if not, you can create your own. Aside from bowls they, too, have smoothies, wraps, salads, and quesadillas. Pictured is the teriyaki stir fry bowl; it was very tasty. I have also had the barbecue bowl with tofu, and it, too, was very good. The staff was also extremely friendly which was definitely a plus! read more

SoFresh - TERIYAKI STIR FRY - Salad Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Good stuff. Have been to a few similar style build your own bowl or salad establishments in other cities and have usually left with a smile. SoFresh made me leave with a smile, too. The menu has warm bowls, salads, wraps and quesadillas. Pick one or create your own. Pricing is OK for most but when you add a protein, depending on your choice, it can be a little on the high end. My create your own started with zucchini noodles, broccoli tomatoes, cauliflower, and added the citrus chicken. Had the Kale-Basil pesto dressing. Actually could eat it without the dressing. Very tasty, very warm and just a good meal. Enjoyed the chicken with a little citrus flavored, it was cooked just right. The bowl was a good size; was wondering when looking at the pictures but it was plenty. If your looking for something a little different and or healthy, you will enjoy SoFresh. read more

I'm torn on this review. I really want to give 3.5 stars. I ordered delivery from here tonight for dinner. It was my first time ever trying Sofresh. While my salad was super fresh and my husband's teriyaki order was delicious- the portions are small for what you are paying. My kale ceasar salad with shrimp was $20 and it was not a lot of food. I actually cannot believe I paid that much for a salad but I was really in the mood for shrimp. I would like to go in the restaurant and try something different and less expensive next time. For the convenience though, I couldn't beat it tonight. As a bonus, they do have a kids menu with healthy options. We ordered my daughter the chicken, bean and rice bowl and she ate it up! read more

Enjoyed a very happy first time lunch here after a nearby workout class. I had the "power bowl", consisting of quinoa, brown rice, kale, goat cheese with kale-basil pesto sauce. It was nicely warm, fairly hefty, flavorful without being nauseatingly salty or saucy. I actually never realized kale could taste so good - I've always just thrown it in my smoothie to avoid chewing it. They have a pretty good selection of bowls - salads, wraps, and juices too. Good addition to the neighborhood! read more

This review is way overdue, because I've been visiting almost daily since the opening. The South Highland/East Liberty So Fresh is by far my favorite fast-casual restaurant anywhere. I've never been disappointed by the quality of the food (hence my recurring visits) or the staff. All of my friends and family that I have introduced to their offering (especially the cookies) have been fans as well. In fact, everything tastes so good that it makes me question the accuracy of the nutrition information listed on the corporate site. I am not mentioning that as a criticism, but a compliment. Despite countless options, I continue to find myself placing an order most days of the week. And again, the staff is awesome. read more

SoFresh - Takeout warm bowl - Salad Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This is the 2nd time of the last 3 times that we ordered for delivery, DON'T! and it was a mess. It seems this is the norm. I ordered the signature salad and added an egg, but otherwise kept everything. Well they got the egg and shrimp right BUT nothing else as in there's was nothing else in it. The salad was bland without it and it cost me $17. In addition we took the time to write out the exact description of how to get to our suite in the buliding we work in, to make it easier for the driver and once again they get lost, salad is warm, cold drinks were warm. The driver texted us and asked us if it was okay to leave on the bench...the bench! Will not order again. Such a shame. read more

Early Saturday morning I was wandering around aimlessly on the pleasant little strip on S. Highland Ave desiring something light and thus not wanting a full-fledged restaurant meal. I then noticed So Fresh that had outdoor seating. Noticing they had smoothies, I walked right in. I ordered the banana date smoothie that had banana, date, almond milk, almond butter, and flax seed. I have to say that sitting outside overlooking the quieter part of highland ave sipping on my delicious and perfectly filling banana date smoothie was one of the better moments of my weekend in the burgh. If you are not looking for a gut-busting meal but have some needs to satisfy your hunger cravings and get an energy boost with a tasty option, and prefer a tranquil setting, then this is your spot. read more

When ordering form Grubhub they can't get your order right. Two weeks ago I got the complete wrong order. Today I figured I'd try again and didn't get the chicken breast that I ordered even though it was on the receipt that was stapled to the order. The food can be a tasteful healthy option but I'm done trying read more

I wish I could give this place more stars I've always loved their food but HATED the containers they came in super flimsy always ripped. Made me not want to order from them, buuuut they have finally updated their packaging so I am very happy about that, perfect place to go no matter you're style of eating(I'm currently on keto) read more

The food is always amazing. Quick service! Nice upbeat, open looking environment. Portions are generous. Food is always served fresh off the grill. Vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, and meat friendly restaurant! Fresh smoothie actually made w fruit and not juice purée's. A few of my favorites are the bbq bowl, skinny bowl, their quesadillas, smoothies, and the superfood bowl. read more

The salad was good. The steak was hot and fresh. But it's expensive for a salad and portions.

One of the worst meals I've ever had. Got zucchini noodles for the base, and they were so soggy that half the bowl was filled with water that everything was submerged in. The garlic herb chicken had NO seasoning on it whatsoever. Had really high hopes for this place but it was a real letdown. read more

I really enjoyed my first experience here this past weekend. The workers inside were all very nice and helpful with the different menu options. I ended up just going with a banana and date smoothie, which had banana, date, almond milk, almond butter, and flax seed. It was delicious. My only criticism of it was it was a little watery. A little more ice and it would have been perfect, but the flavors were great. My wife had a citrus grilled chicken wrap, which I tried. The ingredients all tasted super fresh and were held together perfectly by the great tasting wrap. The citrus agave mustard was a great touch with it as well. read more

YUM! SoFreah is SO delicious! If your looking to have a healthy meal that hits the spot you can't go wrong with SoFresh. I got the BBQ chicken bowl and it was wonderful.

You surely will find that healthy but tasty meal you are looking for here! read more

I stopped in for lunch on Saturday for the first time and had a great experience. Despite COVID restrictions, the restaurant was still accessible and the staff friendly. There was plenty of outdoor seating and the restaurant was organized inside to facilitate food delivery and takeout. I ordered a bowl with brown rice, zucchini noodles, apples, kale, sweet potatoes, avocado cream, tzatziki sauce and steak and it was amazing. The zucchini noodles were cooked perfectly (a lot of places overcook them to mush), the sweet potatoes were tender, the sauces great, and then steak was perfectly cooked as well. The food was excellent, fresh, and filling. The portions were generous and I didn't feel stuffed like you do when you leave from Chipotle and you feel like you have grease and sour cream leaking out of our eyes. In summary, I was super happy with this place and the quality of the food. In addition, I had a chance to chat with the manager (I think his name is Tommy) and he was awesome. Really friendly and professional and does a great job running the place. read more

My boyfriend and I recently ate here immediately after a long workout. We didn't feel like cooking and there's something disgusting about unhealthier takeout options after the gym, so we decided to give SoFresh a try. I'm so happy we did! We both started with their mint lemonade while waiting for our food to come out. It had a generous amount of real mint floating on top as opposed to being flavored with a syrup, which made it extra delicious. I got the teriyaki bowl with salmon and he got the Cali bowl with steak. I never thought I'd say this, but my boyfriend is officially a quinoa convert! I've been trying to sneak it in for years but have never been successful. In combination with all the colors and flavors in this bowl, he loved it. My teriyaki bowl was fabulous (not too sweet) with a nice balance of veggies and rice. The portion of salmon on top was generous and perfectly executed. We were both left satisfied and energized without feeling overly full. I'm sure we'll be making this a part of our post-gym dinner plans in the future. Well done! read more

I've been ordering take out from this place for the past couple of months and am sorry I haven't written a glowing review sooner. Their food is just awesome, great portions, decent pricing, and feels good kind of food. They have a mix of salad, warm bowl, and sandwich options to choose from. My typical go to is their veggie warm bowel with housemade sriracha. It's consists of brown rice, zucchini noodles, onions, mushrooms, and I top it with wild caught ahi tuna. The taste by itself without the sauce is fantastic, everything seasoned so perfectly, but the sauce is out of this world. I'm not a big sauce person due to the caloric burden but I consider this one worth it. For extra treat don't forget one of their freshly squeezed juice concoctions! read more

I ordered a Make Your Own bowl with warm zuchini noodles, chicken, and warm veggies. First off, I didn't get anything that appeared to be zuchini noodles. What I got was very thick cut, cold zuchini which was 90% of what was in the bowl. The little bit of broccoli and onions that came were freezing cold (suppose to be warm). The chicken was delicious, but there was barely any in the bowl. Definitely not worth the price. read more

I have been waiting for a place like this to come to Shadyside and SoFresh has answered my prayers! Yesterday, we went for an early dinner. I ordered a create your own salad and my boyfriend ordered a wrap. I loved that I could build my own salad and how many protein and topping options were available! When we got our food, we were both shocked by how large each of our orders were! (That is a huge plus because it was a little pricey, but again, comparable to similar concept places.) I really enjoyed my salad and he loved his wrap and specifically that it was warm and grilled! We enjoyed their outdoor eating area that looks out onto S. Highland! All COVID restrictions were followed by staff and patrons. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially for a first visit! We will be back. read more
