Writing this review to praise the phenomenal service my group experienced. Annie and her staff was very attentive and made us feel so welcomed and cared for during our visit. Or friend Josh is a talker so thank you for chatting with him beyond his order lol As usual after a long workout, you want to enrich your body with something healthy. I have eaten at this establishment before and remembered how tasty the meal was. I ordered the Seabass with the seasonal veggies. The flavors were all there perfectly cooked perfectly seasoned. My friend ordered the fried chicken sandwich and he enjoyed it. My husband ordered the chipotle chicken sandwich I took a bite and it was yummy as well. Our food was brought out in a timely fashion, and Annie surprised us with some freshly baked cookies. We really appreciate the kind gesture. The restaurant offers indoor seating and outdoor seating on a large patio. lots of umbrellas to cover you from the San Diego sun. The inside and outdoor area were clean. Bathrooms are available inside. Street parking alongside the courtyard and parking lots as well. These are the human moments that make you continue coming to an establishment. Thank you tender green staff for such a lovely experience. We will be back soon. I would highly recommend for lunch or dinner. read more

My husband and I came here for lunch. We ordered sea bass plate with seasonal vegetables and a small pozole soup on the side and a tuna ahi plate with fries and seasonal vegetables on the side. We sat outside. After 1/2 hour, my husband checked inside to see if our meal was lost. Turns out that ours was next in line. The food came out hot. My sea bass was light in texture but didn't have much flavor if any. My husband was happy with his meal. I did try my husband's fries and the ketchup for his fries were tasty. There was parking nearby. Nice atmosphere inside and out. read more

I didn't know what to expect when I wandered in here around 1:30pm on a weekend and was ready to have some lunch, and was pleasantly surprised at how good the food is! The place was pretty empty with maybe 2 tables inside and one person eating outside. The location can't be beat with plenty of outdoor seating to soak up the sun. I ordered the Thai bowl and initially I wasnt too interested in grilled shrimp and steak, and asked for tofu, but they didnt have it. The lady ringing me up was baffled initially when I said I didnt want shrimp or steak. In the end, I decided to follow the rules and went with the grilled shrimp. You order at the register, take a number and food brought out to you. I sat outside and about 10min later, my lunch arrived. Thanks goodness I always ask for any kind of dressing on the side because this dressing while very tasty was also very spicy. I wish it was just a tad less spicy as my mouth was on fire and I only poured in about a quarter of what was given. The vegetables were fresh and tasty, rice was very moist and you can taste the coconut too. Grill shrimp was fresh and perfect. Overall, an excellent lunch! Prices are higher than I would like to spend for casual lunch but not much I can do about that. Parking lot has plenty of space and you can also do some grocery shopping here with Vons and TJs in the same plaza. Id definitely come back and want to try some of their other items like their all vegetable platter! read more

Tender Greens - Thai bowl - delicious but watch out for the spicy dressing! - New American Near Me - San Diego, California

We came on a monday for late lunch so it wasn't too busy. You order & pay first then seat yourself which is nice. The pesto pasta was decent; good sauce & pasta cooked well but the chicken was a bit dry for me. The california bowl was pretty much as you might expect it to be. The salmon was cooked nicely, not overdone. The butternut squash was not too mushy nor too hard. Overall the bowl was a nice balance of color, flavor, and textures in every bite. read more

Overall it was a good experience. The food was good but bland, the Pozole was not my cup of tea. Tastes like something your by in a can from a grocery store. The bbq chicken and steak are delicious. The salad and mashed potatoes always hit. The mint lemonade was a favorite of ours. The service was friendly, and the restaurant was clean and pleasant. read more

I absolutely LOOOOVE Tender Greens! If you come at a good time- I come during the week between 2-3PM, it's not busy at all and the food tastes really fresh. If you come during dinner rush- food can be cold and not fresh. They have TONS of online orders and delivery drivers running in and out of the place. Honestly they should have a separate area for that because it gets chaotic. I LOVE the tender burger plate and the steak plate. My go-tos! I will say I was not a fan of the roasted potatoes- way too much oil but the fries are good. Their meat is excellent- it's very well seasoned and very well cooked and that's honestly one of the main reasons I come. The first time I came and got the steak plate the mashed potatoes were dry, but that was evening time. When I got the steak plate mid-day with mash potatoes- it tasted better. Also the bread they give you with the dinner plate SUCKS! It's inedible and dry and they use it for the croutons and it's so bad! Overall I like tender greens but it really depends on what time you come in and I find that in the middle of the day is the best time. They could improve the bread and store layout as far as the chaos of all their delivery orders but the food is delicious! read more

Very disappointing yesterday. It seems the whole menu has changed. The Mac and cheese was not what it used to be like at all. The steak was mediocre at best. I got mashed potatoes, was not offered gravy. When I went in the cashier had forgotten I had already paid and tried to charge me for gravy. I'm fairly sure the cashier went to puff a few hits of her pen on her break, she seemed high. read more

I had lunch here today. The place used to be healthy and delicious. the plates were big and the food fresh. It's all the opposite now. Very dissatisfying. there were hardly any people and I was wondering why. We ate there anyway because we used to go here and loved it. Plates are smaller, veggies and potatoes precooked and dry. Fish not tasty.The pastry looked old and saggy on the display. the only thing that was ok was the green juice. the menu card all sticky and gross...interior not cozy...Place looks run down. super disappointing. will not return. read more

The staff at this location on 5/20 went above and beyond! The food was great and the service was even better. Huge thank you to the girl at the register helping us choose what to order and the man who was clearing tables making sure we left with a full drink to go. Definitely will come back to this location to sit in the outdoor area! read more

I've always had good service and delicious food from this location. There is a good amount of seating as well and I like the lighting in the restaurant, it's not too bright. read more

I get verbally love Tender Greens....this was my first time at this location in Liberty Station. I usually get the same thing because it's BOMB - the Mediterranean Steak Salad but this was the first time I didn't love it. It had way way too much dressing which was overpowering the other flavors. I'm not sure if the lettuce was wilted or if it was the dressing that made it so soft. I have not had this issue at any other location so I would be willing to come back and try again and am only knocking one star because I don't think that experience was the norm. When we walked in, there was an advertisement for a hamburger they were offering, so my dad ordered that. It was a little small and didn't come with any sides, but he was satisfied with it. It wasn't busy when I came so we ordered very quickly and easily. The young lady working was very nice and the place was clean and comfortable. Parking is plentiful at Liberty Station and there are so many places nearby if you wanted to do some shopping or squeeze a little walk in after your meal so the location is fantastic. read more

We were visiting Liberty Station at Point Loma and decided to eat in the area! We looked around and checked Yelp. We decided to check out Tender Greens!! We both decided on a salad with a protein. The first salad was grilled steak, seasonal vegetables, romaine lettuce. The second salad was grilled steak, seasonal vegetables, and baby arugula. My salad was FANTASTIC! The baby arugula was tossed with a Parmesan cheese lemon vinaigrette. My friend ate most of her salad. She left quite a bit of lettuce mixture on her plate. I asked if she was full. She said she was finish. She said, you can have the rest! I tried a bite and she laughed! It was very WATERY! It was like they never drained the water and no dressing! I couldn't eat it either! :( Their seasonal vegetables were delicious!! It had green beans, baby bell pepper, zucchini, and yellow squash. If you're a Yelper, you get a free watermelon agua Fresca drink! Overall, a nice healthier option for lunch or dinner. The employees were very helpful and cordial. The tables were clean. You can eat inside or outside. Clean bathrooms. Nice decor. read more

Lunch with coworkers on Tuesday afternoon a little after 12ish. You walk up to the counter and order your meal and they give you a number to place on your table. 8-9 tables inside but plenty of seating outside on their patio. They have large picnic tables for large groups and 5-6. Liberty StaStation is right by the runway for the airport so the planes taking off pass by every 3-4 minutes which can be annoying if your not use to them. Grabbed our utensils, salt and pepper shaker (both in one shaker/grinder), napkins, and tapatio and headed outside. Food came out quickly and the portions are large. Could have easily eaten half and taken the rest for dinner. Steak was cooked to order and very tender, seasoned well. Everyone was very pleased with their meal. Will definitely have lunch here again after shopping in Liberty Station. read more

Solid choice if you're looking for a healthy meal! I got a plate with salmon, seasonal veggies, and roasted potatoes and it was light, fresh, and tasty. I loved the salmon, although a little heavy on oil, and the other sides were straight forward. I got some hot sauce on the side because it needs a little something. Would definitely come back! read more

Stopped by seeking a light lunch. Ordered the nicoise ($17.45) and it was brought to me in about 15 mins. Nice presentation but way too much dressing. Definetly needed a knife to eat this salad as the greens were not cut and/or not cut to bite size and the tuna was a bit stringy. The potatoes were also underdone. Disappointing. read more

Came for a late lunch after our Sunday church and a walk along the esplanade at liberty Station, so we were mighty hungry. I couldn't make up my mind what to order so I went with my standard favorite of the tune on Nissan salad and it was as wonderful as usual and the tuna was in good quantity and cooked perfectly, and I felt quite satisfied with the quantity afterwards my husband ordered the steak plate with salad and mashed potatoes, and I couldn't get a picture of it because he was so hungry that it was almost done by the time I started my meal and took pictures of our food. He is rarely full after he finishes a meal here, even though he liked his meal. I inquired of our server what the most filling meal was for my husband and she suggested he tried the longevity bowl with the Seabass next time because that is quite filling or the longevity bowl with Katsu chicken. We will definitely take that under advisement for the future. I only gave it four stars because of the lack of quantity for the plated meal, but the service was great and the quality of the food was also wonderful no complaints there. We spent $38 for the two of us and you could decide whether or not that is reasonable. I will be coming back because I like the freshness of the ingredients as compared to other restaurants. read more

I came in after hitting the gym yesterday evening and the service here was phenomenal! I usually order on uber eats, but since I was nearby I decided to stop in and sit inside. Very clean, great food, and the staff were so welcoming! I was able to customize my order a bit, which I didn't realize was possible. Very happy with my experience! read more

One of my go-to lunch spots in Liberty Station! The Pacific Bowl with salmon is my favorite, along with their green pozole soup. Their plates are also great with a protein and choice of 2 sides. You really can't go wrong here. There is typically street parking out front even around lunchtime. The inside is spacious and they have an outdoor patio too. Signage could be a little better to pinpoint where it is at Liberty Station though. I've both dined in and done takeout plenty of times and service is always quick. Filling and somewhat healthy, delicious food - what more can you want from a fast casual lunch spot! read more

Delivery food was terrible. Falafel was hard, and servings were very small, and lacking. Mashed potatoes tasted like powdered. Arugula salad didn't have enough toppings, only onion. Very disappointing, as I have enjoyed some meals in the restaurant ! Ugly appearance, and very expensive. read more

After a late afternoon Flagship harbor cruise, it was time for dinner, and we decided to go to Liberty Station and decide where to eat once we got there. Knowing there was a Slaters 50/50, I set the GPS navigation to get there from Downtown San Diego. Once we arrived, I took a look at the list of places that were open on a Sunday afternoon. Among the various places was Tender Greens. We had eaten once before at their Irvine location, and it was very good. We weren't looking for anything heavy, so this seemed like a great choice to the four of us. And we weren't disappointed. I had the "Longevity Bowl" -- a nice combination of beluga lentils with a little bit of pears and fennel (not very distinguishable), roasted cauliflower and a few thin slices of fingerling purple potatoes, and a portion of arugala salad in a slightly sweet vinaigrette with pecorino cheese, plus a couple of tablespoons of smoked paprika lebni for dipping. I added the grilled salmon. It was as good as expected, although the lentils could have used a bit more fennel. The arugala was not bitter at all. My wife had the chicken pesto bowl. She enjoyed the combination of pasta, chicken, and pesto, but thought there was too much oil in the blend. She simply tilted her bowl and let the excess oil fall by the wayside. My son had the salt & pepper chicken with farro salad and mac n cheese. He wasn't too fond of the mac n cheese, but liked everything else. His girlfriend also had salt & pepper chicken with the arugala salad and seasonal veggies, and was very pleased with her choice. They live and work in Las Vegas, and had not been to Tender Greens before. We live in LA and would certainly return to this location when in San Diego again. read more

Omar went out of his way to give us great service. Food was fresh and good portions. Seared Tuna cooked to perfection.

This was a nice option to have for a fresh and healthy salad. I purchased the harvest chicken. The salad had nice leafy greens, tender pieces of roasted chicken, sliced red grapes, slices of cooked squash, pepitas, and a nice vinaigrette dressing. I enjoyed everything except the skin on the squash. I would have preferred that it was removed so I didn't have to slice it off. It was not a big deal and I still ate it. The salad also came with a nice toasty, butter slice of bread. It was a perfect compliment of carbs to the salad. I also had the mint lemonade and it was refreshing. If I'm in the area again, I'll be back. read more

Our first time we door dashed. Unfortunately the restaurant gave the driver the wrong order. It was an Uber eats order for Will M. When ours was DoorDash for William W. Super similar looking names so I totally get the mix-up. It was just unfortunate because we were doing house maintenance all day and starving but my husband had to drive to the restaurant to pickup our actual order. We had the Mediterranean steak salad, chicken pesto salad, tender burger, the greens juice and mint lemonade. I really enjoyed the steak salad and all the fresh herbs in it. I think it's nice that the bread they give is sourdough. The chicken pesto sandwich. The chicken was super moist and juicy. The greens juice was good. Kind of watery from the ice melting but still good. The second time we dined in and had a really great experience. We had the short rib plate, chipotle barbecue chicken sandwich and bowl. Everything was so delicious - well seasoned. The short rib was soo soft and tender yet still juicy. Cooked perfectly. On top of that, someone even came to clear our plates and quality checked the food which was very nice. I believe his name was Jovan - he had above and beyond level of customer service. Incredibly gracious and friendly. For a healthy option - this place is perfect and has so many choices to suit nearly anyone. We will definitely be back. read more

I came at 840 ish pm and it was already closing down. It took a couple servers to actually ring me up because some door dash guy was taking forever with an order. I think the service for him was exceptional as they seemed really nice about trying to resolve his issue. I quickly ordered the bbq chicken salad to go. I just got off a plane and wanted something green with protein. It was delicious. The place is clean and has everything. I think they offer real utensils for dine in and the server was conscientious enough to ask if I needed silverware which I did not. So helpful to take a few seconds and limit what goes to waste in our country! Thank you. My salad was delicious, everything was fresh but it's just hard to stomach $16 for a salad. That's me and my oldish age lol. But go check it out. There wasn't a bite left. read more

Very good food. I don't recall the last time i went there but i didnt remember or craved their food. I was meeting a friend for lunch at Liberty Station, and she suggested to go there because of more healthy options. We both ordered the ahi tuna with vegetables and sushi rice, and it was excellent, fresh and healthy. I dont like too much this type of huge impersonal type of restaurants and the wait but overall was pretty good, including the cool art in the wall and the free agua fresca for check-in with the Yelp app. read more

I have been dining at Tender Greens Liberty Station since they opened in 2008. Some menu items have changed for the better or worse but the mashed potatoes have remained consistent and are delicious.

The line to the register was a bit wonky and narrow and there's a separate line for pickups. That could've been organized a bit better but other than that it appeared to be a relatively functional space. What we got: Mint lemonade - 4* they said it's made with real lemon and mint. It tasted great and I enjoyed helping my mum finish hers. The one downside is it left a slight texture on my teeth for a bit. Chicken Pesto - 4* great sandwich with fantastic flavor. It filled up an empty stomach, that's for sure! read more
