Crispy Rice Bowl
Christina B.

I ordered from Sweetgreen for the first time yesterday through DoorDash. I can't really speak to the service or ambiance since it was delivery, but I've walked past the restaurant many times and it always caught my attention. I was craving a salad but wanted something a little more interesting, and I really liked how customizable the ordering process was. I'm not a fan of spicy foods, so I removed the spicy cashews and sauces, added extra veggies, and chose the crispy rice bowl with balsamic vinegar on the side. When it arrived, the bowl looked beautiful and the ingredients seemed really fresh. Unfortunately, once I started eating it, there were random bites that were unexpectedly very spicy. It wasn't consistent enough to seem like an ingredient I ordered, but more like something spicy accidentally got mixed in during preparation. Every so often I would get a bite that completely caught me off guard and set my mouth on fire, which made the experience pretty disappointing. I was really hungry so I still finished the salad and drank a lot of water to balance the heat, but it definitely wasn't what I expected. That said, the ingredients tasted fresh and the crunch of the salad was great, so I would probably try ordering again.

Food: The food is average overall, but since it's meant to be a healthier option, it makes sense that many of the base ingredients taste a bit plain on their own. Once everything is mixed together with the toppings and sauces I chose, the bowl was actually pretty tasty. The portion size is decent and filling without being too heavy. Service: The service was the weakest part of my visit. It was my first time there, and I wasn't familiar with how the ordering process worked. The staff member who took my order didn't seem very welcoming or wanting to help. I had to ask questions at each station about the toppings and options. BUT I understand that people have off days and she may have been tired, but as a first-time customer, I would have appreciated a warmer welcome and a bit more guidance. Ambiance: The space is very bright, spacious, and clean. It feels fresh and well-maintained, making it a comfortable place to sit and enjoy your meal.

Chicken Avocado Ranch?

I loved my avocado spinach salad with chicken. Really easy to order on the app, it was ready for pick up when I got there. I didn't eat there so can't come on the ambience.

Kale with blackened chicken and crispy rice
Smitha A.

I was so excited when a sweetgreen showed up near me. This is the best bowl. Don't fight me until you try it. Base of white rice and kale. Add chick peas, spicy broccoli, crispy rice x2. Get cilantro or basil for a good flavor. Add blackened chicken. For the dressing (this is the important part), get one spicy cashew, one sweetgreen hot sauce and one miso ginger - all light. And ask them to mix it in. So good. The restaurant itself is super clean. Service is friendly but maybe because they are new, they don't know much about the company or the app. For example, I couldn't get my gift card to work. Rather than help me or call their own IT, they told me to email the company. But I was there trying to eat? So that was the only reason I took away the star. The crispy rice alone is 5 star!

Chicken Caesar wrap

I tried Sweetgreen (La Jolla location) for the first time earlier last week for a work lunch and got the Chicken Caesar wrap with a couple additions. I am pretty picky about caesar wraps to be candid and it was honestly so delicious I wanted to go back by the end of the week. This time I came to the Mission Valley location... What the hell is this? For $15??

Create Your Own salad

There is plenty of parking. The space itself isn't laid out the best. It is a large space, but very little indoor seating. There is some outdoor seating as well. There are a bunch of kiosks where you can place your order. It is nice to be able to customize everything and also see calorie and macro details. They have a bunch of ingredients to choose from. I built my own salad. I asked for light dressing and it still felt like a lot. I would get the dressing on the side next time for sure. When getting it pre-mixed, most of the toppings were on the bottom of the bowl, so it was kind of hard to tell / see the portion sizes of the toppings / add-ons. Overall, this is a decent spot for a healthy lunch.

Hooray! A new Sweetgreen in Mission Valley. This is on Camino de la Reina close to Chipotle and Target. I'm a big fan of this salad chain. I love their wholesome and nutritious plates. I love the wide variety of ingredients they have! I visited on a Saturday afternoon and had no wait. Ordering is super duper easy with their tablets. It also makes it easy to customize items. They made my plate within a few minutes, and the employees were so friendly! I took my bowl to go but there are plenty of tables for eating in. I tried the "Ranchy Baddie Bowl" - it's a limited menu item that's a collab with a Love Island star. I enjoyed all the items in this salad chain- rice, kale, cabbage, blackened chicken, sweet potatoes, chips, crunchy onions, and hot sauce and green goddess dressing! Perfect mix of sweet, savory, and spicy flavors. I did add chickpeas and cucumbers just because it looked yummy. I also always get bread on the side, this time it was just a slice of whole wheat so nothing crazy (in the past it was a buttery crispy focaccia) but it is free so why not add it. The only thing is I wish I got more sauce because the bowl was jam packed so I definitely needed more to cover everything. 5/5 would return :)

I enjoyed a nice Kale Caesar Salad from this place for lunch. The Salad came with a mixture of kale and romaine lettuce. It also had very good tender all white roasted chicken, which I liked very much. I asked for the dressing to be mixed in the salad, you can also have it on the side, which was very good. It offered that nice zesty flavor with hints of anchovies. The salad came with some terrific parmesan crisps which added great texture and flavor to the salad. The salad also came with cherry tomatoes and shredded parmesan cheese. The service was friendly. The place was well kept, clean, and organized. Oh yes, they offer you a slice of whole wheat bread with your salad. The bread was very good. There's plenty of parking, inside and outside seating is available.

Entrance

Sweet Greens Mission Valley has opened, previously where Corner Bakery was and is a great healthy option that allows you to customize your own bowl. I was looking for something healthier today and was happy to find Sweet Greens had opened and decided to stop in. They had welcoming green balloons at the entrance and a friendly greeting once walking in. It's especially nice with the large menu board and contactless ordering on iPads which allows you to create or customize your own bowl. Prices were decent at around $16 depending on what items you selected. There was quite a bit of seating including outside and the space was nicely renovated, giving a clean open feel. Our food was prepared in the open kitchen and was fast - about 5 minutes. Great bowl presentation and large size. The only thing I will say is there was a lot of kale compared to the other items but otherwise was tasty. They also use all compostable items so that nothing goes in the regular garbage which I'm a huge fan of. A good visit and will probably be back again.

Green juice
Rhiza D.

so happy to have another healthy option in the area! Parking was easy (large lot) and ordering was simple. You order on a kiosk, I personally like this since at other locations it can take quite some time to finally order. Apparently a robot or something also makes your order?! I didn't verify, but overhead an employee say so. I LOVE sweet green, everything is delicious! Green juice was good with a nice kick of ginger, but had agave in it. It took a really long time to get our drinks (we were done with our food by the time we got drinks). Staff were very kind! I plan to be a regular.

Miso Glazed Salmon

This is the amount of food you get for a $17 "protein plate". They should be embarrassed to be this stingy. This place is a joke.

Really love Alma! Came in for lunch but I was having technical issues with my machine. I had put in a custom tip but then my machine had issues so they had to move me to a team member handling a different register. Alma then went ahead and pushed submit even though I hadn't had a chance to adjust my tip in machine number two. Alma said don't worry about it and told me my thank you to her was enough. Her kindness is something I will not forget. The eatery is a smaller space than it's sister location at UTC so for the lunch rush you may not get a spot to sit (aka take it to go). Food comes out fast and all the workers are humble and dedicated. I really appreciate them very much. Make sure you tell them they are amazing b/c I have worked also at different food places before, and I can tell just from a few minutes how they work so hard! Cheers

This place is one of the top 5 best sandwich shops in San Diego hands down. They also serve salads,…read moresoups, and some awesome sides. I heard they're going to start serving beer and wine soon as well! *Best 1st-timer options*: The Keeper (if you like it spicy) or the L.G.B.T. My favorite hot sandwiches are the Cali Cubano, B3, and The Keeper, while my favorite cold sandwiches are the Avocado Highway, L.G.B.T. (lettuce, gouda, bacon, tomato), and Caprese. My favorite salads are the Grapevine and Duck Cranberry. For sides I recommend the potato salad and tomato basil bisque. The aioli they use is to die for -- can't hurt to get a side of it with any sandwich! The restaurant is situated on the corner of Park Blvd. and Polk Ave. (more generally, it's on the strip of Park Blvd. between University Ave. and El Cajon Blvd.). There is usually a good amount of parking on Park Blvd. and Polk Ave., which is nice. The space has a simple-yet-tasteful modern design and interior, is always clean, with friendly and helpful staff. Great for lunch hour or a weekend date. Update: Came back today with my friend and we ordered the B3 and the Turkey & Cheddar Mousse sandwiches, plus sides of potato salad and cucumber salad, and a double chocolate cookie with pistachio and sea salt. Everything was really good, but the Turkey & Cheddar Mousse sandwich was the star of the show. The cookie was great too. We both agreed the potato salad could use some salt, but besides that it was a solid meal all around.

Big Front Door has quickly become a new favorite for sandwiches, and visiting two days in a row…read moremade that very clear. On the first visit, Zack provided exceptional care and attention while helping navigate food allergies. Zack took the time to carefully check ingredients, double-check preparations, and personally come back out to verify everything to ensure safety. That level of care made the experience feel genuinely welcoming and stress-free. The chicken sandwich was fresh, satisfying, and thoughtfully balanced. Juicy chicken, ripe tomatoes, creamy avocado, and a bright splash of oil and vinegar came together beautifully on Big Front Door's roll, which had a great texture and held everything together well. The flavors were clean and vibrant. A little extra salt would have pushed it over the top for a salt-lover, but that came down to personal preference rather than any shortcoming. A dining companion ordered the avocado sandwich and could not stop raving about it, praising both the flavor and the freshness. The outdoor seating area deserves special mention. The shaded space was perfect as I do have sun allergies, especially for anyone who prefers relief from direct sun. The care taken in food preparation added an extra layer of comfort and trust. The second visit somehow raised the bar even higher. Micah went above and beyond to accommodate physical ability needs with patience, attentiveness, and genuine kindness. That effort did not go unnoticed and made the experience feel deeply respectful and inclusive. The roasted chicken sandwich ordered on the second visit was phenomenal. The roasted chicken was tender, savory, and full of depth, elevating the sandwich even further. Adding a bit of extra salt brought all the ingredients into perfect harmony, making every bite more satisfying than the last. This sandwich has officially earned a spot as a new favorite sandwich. Big Front Door was amazing not just for delicious, thoughtfully prepared food, but for the people who work there. Zack and Micah created an environment where care, kindness, and respect were clearly prioritized. No moment felt rushed, dismissive, or uncomfortable. At no point did anyone make the experience feel like a burden or inconvenience. A sincere thank-you also goes to the team members who prepared the food. Even without knowing names, the care taken to keep guests safer while serving delicious nourishment was evident and deeply appreciated. Big Front Door comes highly recommended for the flavorful sandwiches, the shaded outdoor space, the welcoming atmosphere, outstanding customer service, and the genuine kindness shown at every action.

I use a 3-strike rule when I go out because having worked in food service I understand stuff happens, but this was not just a one-off. Firstly, the man that took our order was rude, there wasn't anyone behind us waiting to order and the cashier spoke SO fast and cut me off multiple times. I felt rushed but whatever. I ordered the stuffed French toast and added bacon, eggs, and hash-browns with a latte, my fiance got the chicken fried steak with scrambled eggs and black coffee. The latte was really good, and the hot coffee was great according to my fiancé. We waited close to 45 minutes for our food, they were busy obviously, as it was a Sunday morning, but we watched a few other couples get their food before ours. We got everything we ordered except my eggs and bacon, which the food runner said would be "right out". While I waited I ate half of my hashbrowns, which were lukewarm, I wanted to eat my eggs with the hashbrowns so I waited. I ended up waiting 10 minutes before I got up to ask an employee to check on my food, as I received only half of what I ordered and had been waiting so long. He went back and brought my eggs and bacon, but go figure, the food wasn't hot! None of what I ordered was hot, so clearly the food had been sitting. You would think after waiting so long for your food it would've been fresh. Lastly, there were pieces of egg shell sprinkled across my stuffed French toast. How does that even happen unless they were cracking eggs near my food or had egg shells allover their hands. The stuffed French toast was good after I picked out all of the egg shells, and I couldn't finish all of it, so I asked an employee who was restocking glasses where I could get a to-go box. He told me to ask the cashier 6 feet away, and that the boxes are behind him, but the cashier had a line to the door so obviously I didn't want to bother him. I ended waiting until the guy was restocking glasses directly in front of the to-go boxes and he got me one. All in all, terrible customer service, lukewarm food, long wait, and very much not worth the $75, and I wish we could take our tip back, that you pay BEFORE receiving any service.
