Love this place. Fresh delicious food, served quickly. All it needs are more comfy chairs and more space. Free wifi, but it never connected for me. read more

The place is very small. It's picnic bench seating and the tables are shaped oddly...as in the shape of a slice of tree trunk. The ordering process is similar to that of a subway or Quiznos, however the menu is unique. I had the British Sandwich. The sandwich itself is $7.95 (comes with meat and cheese) and you get 4 additional toppings. There are a variety of toppings you can select from such as pesto, roasted tomatoes, lettuce, avocadoes etc etc...I would be careful though because the cashier machine screwed up the prices so my sandwich rang up at a higher price than it should have. The cashier was very lazy and didn't want to fix the price discrepancy until I asked her to talk to her manager....so the service isn't all that fab. But they are unintrusive and polite at best. The sandwich was delicious, but I don't know if I would go out of my way to come back here....it wouldn't be on the forefront of my eating list! read more

Prices seem to have increased since they got a new menu. Plus, I used to ask for a side of something like roasted kale or edamame and get it for free, now they charge me for it! The salads are nothing special. Going to Whole Foods across the street has such a better selection for the same price. The sandwiches are pretty good though. Not many vegetarian options. read more

Great salad place with a lot of vegetarian protein options, such as grilled tofu. I'm usually pretty sensitive to vegetables that haven't been sufficiently cleaned, and stay away from most salad bars, but I've never had a problem here. The dill dressing is worth the trip alone, and I've yet to find anything similar at the grocery store. The service staff is always pleasant and efficient. It's not a big space and gets crowded quickly. It's also on the expensive side for a salad. read more

Since I live in the area, this is my go-to place whenever I feel like a salad (specifically, Asian chicken salad). Salad in general seem to be trendy right now, and while I feel that the quality of salads across most of these places are about the same, Sweet Leaf is cheaper, so it's a winner in my book. I think I've had a sandwich or two (probably the egg salad, but it's been a while and I don't remember exactly) here before and they were fine. I've come here with a friend and he was also impressed with his salad and sandwich choices. I've been here with my youngest daughter (when she was 4-6) and she was easily able to find food she could eat (although I'll say I the "kids' menu" feels a little limited, if you like having a separate kids' menu). I've never tried their shakes or ice cream, although during the warmer months, it seems like people come here specifically for that, so there must be something to it. The staff is friendly. I've come here once during the lunch time rush, when it was rather busy and finding a seat was a little difficult, but my experience during non-lunch time hours is that the place is much emptier, sometimes even rather dead (once, I wasn't even sure they were open, it was so empty - it could have been because it was an early dinner the day after Christmas and things seemed slow in general all over). I like the irregularly shaped hewn wood tables. During nice weather, I enjoy bringing my dog and eating outside. read more

6 stars for the place/menu... 4 stars for the kabobi bowl LOVE this place (specifically making my own salad with spinach and smoked salmon). I tried the kabobi bowl today (think Cava). It was delicious and (in typical Sweetleaf fashion) HUGE. Now, I also LOVE Cava, so that's what I used as a measuring stick. While I didn't love the overall taste (as compared to Cava), it was still delicious and best of all you get a lot. For my money I'd definitely come here and mix it into my Cava rotation. read more

Stopped in, unplanned, while walking through town. Highly recommend to anyone looking a for simple, fresh, healthy, and creative meals. Pricing is comparable to other sandwich/salad restaurants. They also offer breakfast sandwiches! read more

It's not the cheapest place for a salad or sandwich, but it's pretty good. The staff is not the friendliest in the world, but what the hey. I've never been tempted to invite the staff of Panera over for drinks either. That seems to be the gist of the negative reviews of this place. That and the food being bland. I've been here twice and did not have that problem. They have wifi. A sub on a toasted baguette is pretty good. The pesto is garlicky goodness. A salad or a sub and a coke with tax is 10 bones. Who's crying over that? read more

Horrible customer service on the 9th-April-2021. Me and a coworker experienced a long wait time even though we were the only ones in line. They were filling online orders without acknowledging our presence at the counter. We had to wait for 10 minutes. However we remained calm and didn't say anything as this was our first time in the store. Meaning, the wait gave us time to look over the menu. However when paying for my to go order, I had to ask for a bag. I thought this was unusual she didn't automatically bag my food. Moreover when I asked for a bag, she threw it on the counter for me to bag it myself. I'm not sure where the hostility comes from, as we didn't complain or say anything negative to the staff. This was my first and last time in Sweet Leaf in Vienna VA! read more

I met my mom for a quick lunch near her office, she suggested we go to Sweet Leaf. When we arrived, there was no parking which at 1:15pm was fine with me, I figured it would be a good meal! We parked around the corner and went in. It is a very eclectic set-up with funky yet homey decor. A range of menu items from soup, sandwiches, and salads to ice cream and sweet treats! I had the California Cobb salad and my mom ordered the soup of the day. I really enjoyed my salad, it seemed healthy and filling. They don't skimp on your portions and the menu is reasonably priced. I was disappointed in the soup, the Barley Vegetable I think it was, was not very exciting. It reminded me of salted, celery water with small chunks of barley and carrot in it. Could definitely be improved. All in all it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend others give it a try. read more

Love being able to choose all my salad ingredients. Everything is always fresh, always get a ripe avocado. Plus they did contact-free pickup before it was cool. I also like their charge system--they only charge you once a month to save on CC costs. Glad they're in the middle of Vienna with a convenient parking lot. read more

I was looking forward to trying this place and then.... I actually went. The salad option were kind of underwhelming. So much so that I tried a sandwich instead - the Koo Koo Roo. It was fine, but nothing better than I could've gotten at Whole Foods or Fresh Market. In fact, I had lunch out four days in a row this week because HEY I'M REALLY BUSY. Cava, Whole Foods, Sweetleaf, and Freshmarket. Cava was BY FAR the best, with Whole Foods second. In other words, go ahead and cross Sweetleaf off your list. read more

I found myself craving healthy food and had three visits there last week! It makes it easy for me to stop and take a time out from a busy life to eat right. Sweetleaf is great to decompress, change up my previous choice with a myriad of combinations off their menu board. I do have to suggest a bit overtly to put a little more of an ingredient like my experience with the Subway sandwich folks... LOL read more

Another delicious meal from the Sweet Leaf family. This is my first time at this location, my first being in Arlington, and I received the same high level service. Clean inside, fresh and organized food layout, and friendly smiles with light banter. I ordered the California Cobb salad and it was a hefty portion. The salad was very good and filling with the eggs, bacon, avocado and heaping of lettuce. No complaints. Thank you again for providing great service and great food! read more

I was feeling a little bloated and sick so didn't want anything heavy for dinner. It was my first time trying sweet leaf and I ordered the kabobi bowl. The falafel was very flavorful and the meal didn't make me super full but I felt satisfied afterwards. I would definitely come back to try other food items on the menu! read more

Very bad experience, for starters they changed the menu to a smaller section of menu. They don't have as much salad as they use to have. Now they only have 3 types of salad. Second the service was very bad, we waited for a long time to get our salad. The portion isn't equal the amount of money the Cobb salad was awful they literally put on the salad 2 squished cherry tomatoes the portion was awful the avacados where old and it was less than 1/3 of a whole avocado. Avoid this place at all cost save your money. Go to cava or Zoe's, cheaper and better quality of food. read more

Stopped and had lunch here last week with a co-worker - it was wonderful! We each had a salad which was fresh, delicious and huge. Staff was pleasant and helpful-price was right, we sat outside- it was all great. I will be back! read more

Under new management and the menu is completely different. I miss the old menu, which was healthier and more fresh. As is, the restaurant still offers good salad and sandwich options but definitely not as good as it used to be and there are no healthy shakes available. read more

They made my salad pretty quick, but it was not mixed. What was the reason? They were very slow considering it was the middle of the day and the global pandemic is definitely slowing things down. There was no excuse to not mix my salad. If I wanted unmixed salad ingredients, I would have saved my money and gone to a grocery store. They didn't even cut up the avocado, so it was half of an avocado sitting on top of a pile of kale. :( read more

We were so excited about trying this place but ended up very disappointed. Though we are not vegetarian we never eat conventional meat and usually try not to eat meat products most of the time. It took us some time to sort through the menu. We found only two salads and one sandwich that was vegetarian, so we ordered the salads. The lady started suggesting that we add some chicken or egg and I told her we are vegetarians and she said "oh, you came to the right place". With puzzlement we just looked at each other and smiled. The guy who was about to make our salad was wearing gloves and wiping down the cutting board with a towel. He put the towel down in a small container behind him and started making our salads without changing the gloves. Hello? Cross-contamination! I only hope that container had sanitizer in it. The salads were mediocre at best. My salad, the Santa Fe, had some sort of creamy dressing on it but very little so I went back to ask for more and the lady gave me a salsa dressing different from what the guy put on. Ok fine, didn't think it would matter since the guy used so little of the other one. My wife's salad was the Positano which had so sort of Italian dressing. Both dressings had no balance to them and were overly acidic. Generic food service stuff perhaps. When you look around there is no mention of anything organic just innuendo of healthy.... good for you blah blah blah. This place is a obviously a SweetGreen rip off. A wolf and sheep's clothing so to speak. read more

Excellent food and service in a great location! The San Remo sandwich is phenomenal, especially paired with a smoothie in which you choose any combination of fruits you like. Love the healthy menu and the earthy decor, it fits the vibe of the restaurant to a T! Service is fast and friendly and the owner, Arita, is courteous and always on top of all operations. It's a family owned-and-operated establishment, too, which makes it even better. Very much recommended! read more

It's not cheap when you make your own salad about $14.00. I like to make my own. However, it's really fresh, wish they did organic. Coffee drinks are as good as Starbucks. Service is awesome. Tight space for lunch it was hard to find a seat. This is a nice addition in Vienna. Finally, parking is a pain only a few spots in back. read more

San Remo is the way to go - I usually get it on a French baguette. If you are into salads go with the Southwestern. Love the vibe at the venue, the staff is nice and always remembers me which is really awesome. I've talked to the owner a couple times, they seem like they really care about your experience there. I only wish there were more. read more

Most awesome smoothies ever!!! The italian salad was delicious. We love their frozen yogurt. They don't skimp on the yogurt for smoothies and we love the freshness of their fruits. The salads have high quality ingredients. I am so glad to have a new eatery in the Town of Vienna. read more

This is my new favorite salad place. I used to go to Potbelly for salads but this place is way better. Everything is really fresh and you can see them make your salad so you can see what's going in. The portions are large and they also give you a piece of bread and you can request pickles free of charge too! For the price you get a lot of food, way more than Potbelly or Panera. The staff is also really friendly and it's very clean. So far, I've tried the Cobb and Asian Chicken and both were delicious. I want to try them all! The only downside is there isn't much parking. read more

I love this sunny cafe! Really like the design. Employees are friendly. Food is fresh and delicious and breakfast sandwiches served all day. Sandwiches & salads, soups and yogurt. Can sit at the tables or at the cool wooden counter at the windows looking out to the world whizzing by. read more

Three of us had lunch here Sunday. Delicious, fresh, wholesome. It's a very nice, clean, small place. The menu is intriguing and the ingredients are right where you can see them. We were only visiting from Ohio sad to say. I wish we had one here. There were so many menu items I'd love to try. read more

This is a unique place that has healthy food served quickly. They have interesting creative menu choices.

I have eaten here a couple times, and I liked em both times. This place makes a nice sandwich, neatly stacked, and tastes delicious. It is a pleasant environment indoor or outdoor off of Maple Avenue in Vienna, Virginia. I would call this a place to hang out with friends and grab a bite to eat to relax on a nice weekend afternoon. To sum it up, clean, tasty neatly made sandwiches, with plenty of options to choose from at a convenient location. read more

This is the fifth time I've tried to go to jammin java and it was closed. Thankfully sweet leaf was across the street! Really cute country cafe with legit sandwiches and salads for a good price. Not crowded, but enough seating and cozy atmosphere. Just what I was looking for in the area-- a nice place to work on my laptop! read more

Really great place for fresh, healthy, quality food in a quick casual environment. Their daily soups are always yummy and their made-to-order salads are fantastic. It's a great addition to the Vienna scene for people who care about their food. read more

This place is great! The food is all fresh and delicious. Salads are big and tasty. Sandwiches come in creative combos with a variety of bread choices Breakfast sandwiches are the best around as are the smoothies. Employess are first rate at customer service. BUT .....I recently learned that the money left in the tip jar on the counter marked "Hopes and Dreams" actually goes to the OWNER not the employees! How greedy is that! I've dumped plenty of bills in that jar. I feel ripped off. So go to Sweet Leaf and eat the delicious food but DONT LEAVE MONEY IN THE TIP JAR FOR GREEDY OWNERS! read more

I go there all the time for lunch. The owner is always there with a smile and you can tell because the quality of both food and service are excellent. The salad bar is sparkling with fresh ingredients and the sandwiches are top notch. Sometimes, I splurge and get the smoothies or soups which are freshly made. I used to go to the bakery shop down the street but the service was bad (owner always yelling at his employees) and the sandwiches have average. Lastly, I think the other reviews are a bit harsh, especially when they complain of the prices being expensive. Fresh produce is not cheap, if you want a cheap salad or sandwich then go to McDonalds or Subway. I think $7-8 for a gourmet salad with fresh cut avocado, roasted peppers, etc is very fair. As for finding the portion being small that is crazy, the salads are the size of a child's head. Definitely I gem in Vienna!!! read more

Salads are always good but parking lot is tiny. I asked to have my salad split into two bowls and they looked at me like I had two heads. I just said nevermind. read more

I had the Asian Chicken salad and it was super yummy. It has a strong lime flavor, so if you like that kind of thing you should try it. Funnily, the chicken itself wasn't that good...still, I'm a big fan of the various salad bars in DC. So it's nice to finally have one in Vienna. The place is small - cozy - but cute. The staff was nice, the prices weren't crazy. It was great for a midweek date nite. I'll definitely go again. read more

Healthy stuff. Salads are enormous. Had Asian inspired with edame, mango, quinoa and spicy peanut sauce. Nice that they ask if you want it on the side. Small place but friendly and cozy. Shaded outdoor seating but today was not good for all fresco dining. Normally I don't like tofu but it was on the salad and tasted great with the peanut dressing read more

I just discovered Sweetleaf and I'm now hooked. I don't have one by my house but there's one by where I work and I now go there 2-3 times a week! It's healthy, made to order salads with healthy dressings that are delicious. I'm addicted. Can't wait to make my way through the rest of the menu! read more

Breakfast sandwiches are super fresh and delicious, made to order, and with several bread and filling options. Generously sized, too. Coffee is as good as anywhere, and elbow room much better than Starbucks, so it is a definite thumbs in the morning:) read more

This review is just for the froyo and ice cream. I was craving for froyo. This is the only location with froyo at that time. They had one flavor of froyo which is the original, it was over priced for a cup with three topping. We also had their ice cream, it was too sweet for my taste. Some of the fruit toppings were fresh, and some weren't. The mango was frozen. I'm sticking to a froyo place next time instead of a place that's mainly for salads and sandwiches, which are probably awesome. read more

Thrilled to have this adorable spot close to home. When I stopped in for dinner, there were a few customers eating, but no line. I was a bit hesitant to order the Fresh Stack sandwich, since all-veggie sandwiches sometimes end up being more like crudites stuck between two slices of dry bread. I'm so glad I took the risk. This sandwich far exceeded expectations. The farmer bread (a soft, fresh sourdough) was toasted with swiss cheese, and then topped with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, sprouts, bell pepper, and red onion. I appreciated the obvious care taken by the ladies behind the counter as they meticulously stacked the veggies onto the broad leaf of lettuce before carefully placing the whole stack on the sandwich. As a finishing touch, the bread was slathered with guacamole. My sandwich came with a side of spicy veggie relish salsa, and the guacamole had a bit of a kick, so be warned if you are sensitive to spicy foods. The sandwich was definitely big enough for me, although I do see other reviewers' points that Sweetleaf doesn't compare to the portion sizes at Chipotle. One thing I would like to see are more side dish options, like potato or macaroni salad, or maybe a half sandwich with salad option. They may already have these options, but I didn't see them on the menu board. For the outstanding quality here, I will definitely be skipping past the Chipotle and Noodles and Co. across the street and grabbing my lunch at Sweetleaf from now on. read more
