    Rare Tuna (double protein), mashed potatoes, romaine salad with extra vinaigrette on the side
    Jeanette C.

    I love Tender Greens. I've been to the Pasadena, El Segundo, and Irvine over the years. Customer service in this specific location is a hit or miss. Either really good with zero problems. Or really slow service. Portion sizes have also significantly decreased over the years, but I understand all restaurants are impacted by inflation. I mostly still come in to make the most of my rewards available on the mobile app or for their annual Veteran's Day discount. The saving grace, what really matters at the end of the day - is that the food is still delicious. They're generally good about making sure proteins aren't overcooked here, but I've seen other people have a different (worse) experience than me. I really hope this spot hires additional crew members soon. I get the feeling the few that are part of the team are almost always exhausted on the job. I'm rooting for this T.G. to improve overtime!

    The bread was burnt. Tried taking it off but it was a lot.

    Burnt sandwich. Hope the owner sees this so this business can do better. I took it to the front and tried to show the young girl. She seemed confused as to what was wrong with it. (Miss on who ever hired or trained her. How can she not know when a sandwich is burnt?) I told her that it's burnt and walked back. To her credit she did come back and tried to make me a fresh one. But at this point I don't trust how my food is going to be handled. So I'll just eat this one.

    The food here is always amazing and delicious! I love their salmon and beef plate! The salmon is so soft and seasoned really well with salt and butter! For sides I highly recommend getting the smashed potatoes or Mac and cheese! Then I also recommend getting the seasonal vegetables! They are so soft and seasoned good! I also love their salmon bread here! The season it and put olive oil on the top. I highly recommend coming here for dinners or if you're needing a healthy and well balanced meal!

    Friendly counter service. Food ho hum. Needs spices updated. I am sure they have good reviews. Maybe try a different entrees next time.

    Note

    I ordered online through doordash. Mains and two sides of mashed potatoes. Unfortunately they were out of stock of the mashed potatoes. However! Someone left a message inside the bag letting us know and provided us with 2 cookies, 2 sides of roasted potatoes, and 2 sides of mac n cheese! The food was also warm and nicely prepared when it arrived!

    The server was friendly and nice with a smile. The food was tender and tasty. The restaurant is clean and the music is pleasant.

    Can reservations be made?

    I don't believe you can since you have to wait In Line to place your order. Maybe for very large party they can reserve space. I'd call them.

Even after placing my order, the staff was happy to accommodate the change, which I greatly appreciated. The sandwich, paired with the tomato basil soup, was phenomenal. It was loaded with turkey, smashed avocado, smoked bacon, pickled red onions, and fresh greens. The flavors blended perfectly, creating a sandwich that, in my opinion, is far better than anything you'll find at Panera. After my wife and I finished our meal, one of the staff members, Zeron, kindly offered to clear our trays and bowls. Service like that never goes unnoticed. As always, the atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming, with plenty of indoor seating as well as outdoor tables for those who prefer to dine outside. Thank you for another delicious lunch. We look forward to coming back again soon!

While my expectations aren't generally high for salads, the Chicken Pesto Parm bowl was very good. The bowl comes with chopped white chicken, quinoa, baby spinach, tomatoes, garlic bread crumbs, and a side of both pesto and hot sauce. Everything was fresh, and I especially enjoyed the quinoa that was used as a base for the entire meal. Additionally, the Hibiscus tea that I got wasn't too watery or sugary, so it complimented the meal perfectly. Our service was nice and fast, with my date and I only waiting roughly five minutes for our orders to be ready due to one of the ingredients for her salad needing to be refilled. Both of the young ladies working the counter were courteous, and they ensured we knew the code for the nearby restroom. The only reason for a 4/5 stars is simply due to the lack of space to eat inside of the establishment. Those of us in Southern California are currently experiencing record-breaking heat, so it would have been nice to dine indoors, but there wasn't enough room for us both due to other patrons inside. Fortunately, it wasn't too hot outdoors by the time we started eating, but we would have preferred indoors. Nevertheless, sweetgreen is a great salad spot to check out for a lowkey first date, healthier eating, or simply for anyone looking to try something different.

It was the worst thing I've ever seen in my life and I only bought it because I was with a friend if I would've saw the portion size at the end, I would've walked out and told them I'm not paying for that. They were extremely greedy with the portion sizes. They asked if I wanted a "free" bread at the end when I was paying. There were three options in front of me so I picked the one bread that looked the best out of the three they honestly all look very crusty but I picked the best looking one and I said I'll take that one and the girl says oh no, not that one it has to be one of these two the one that I picked is an up charge just like everything else in that store.. extremely disappointing. I would never return ever in my life. If you want the world's smallest portion sizes with 90% lettuce and 5% toppings and another 5% of protein then this is your spot. And let me just mention I'm 115 pounds at 5'2 which says a lot on how tiny these portion sizes were if it were small for me with double chicken save yourself the money and disappointment. They make it look big by grabbing a big shallow bowl and filling it up with 90% lettuce. I was in disbelief to see the tiniest amount of toppings that they put and they spread out the toppings so that it looks like it's full.

The interior is neat and clean. There are various types of seating (bar; table; booth; high-tops; communal), and plenty of screens to watch sports. On this occasion, I ordered the Tavern Fish & Chips ($22). It is described as "Alaskan cod coated in a tempura beer batter and served with French fries, tartar sauce and yuzu herb coleslaw". The positives of this dish are that it was prepared well. Both the fish and chips tasted good. The presentation was also nice; which leads to the coleslaw: The coleslaw tasted good, too; but I was surprised the serving was so spare. It's almost as if it was served just to optically balance the presentation in the basket. (See photo shared,) And while the price was not unreasonable, feel it's creeping towards expensive (relative to serving size). I'll attribute this to rising input costs. Staffing might be an issue during the lunchtime service. Service was okay, but they seemed to be understaffed. It's possible that most of their business is done after 5pm.
