Just Salad
“Then if you have the reusable bowl, you can get 2 additional "essential" ingredients (or 1 cheese item).”
“Price wise, it's cheaper than Chop't and slightly more expensive than Cosi's. The lettuce is just as good as Chop't and Cosi's. I'll be back whenever I feel like eating healthy”
“If you buy their reusable salad bowl, you get 2 free toppings each time you bring it with you…”

Good chicken noodle soup but on a few occassions, the meat was non-existent as referenced in my photos.
On the rare occassion, I had a cold I got chicken noodle soup here because they close late than the other options around the area. Thankfully, the chicken soup did the job.
I used to get salads here a few years ago, and the meat was just not fresh. After a few times, I decided to pass and opted for Chop'd salad a block away. The meat and veggies are more fresh.
Overall I have mixed feelings about Just Salad. I've come here quite often for convenience factors only, but I've been disappointed by the portions (oftentimes, by the time the salad is all chopped up, the salad only fills up 2/3 of the small bowl). I typically order the California with edamame in place of tomatoes, and light on the asian sesame dressing (I recommend the asian sesame or the balsamic vinaigrette). The chicken, however, is not great. It's sometimes dry, chewy, and sometimes has a bit of fat or tendon still attached that is overall extremely unpleasant.
Chop't or Sweetgreen are higher quality salad options.
This is one of the lamer create-your-own-salad joints in the area.
A $3 LevelUp credit brought me here for a salad that was way too skimpy on the mix-ins. Kale is cool… but not when you're eating a big bowl of it by itself.
It looks like I'll be returning to Flavors for my over-priced chopped vegetables!
Psssht these mofos. Today, much to my dismay, Chop't ran out of Craisin's. Yeaa I pretty much eat the same salad err day and Craisin's are a staple. So I figured, no biggie…I'll pop into Just Salad to buy some. HA. There were about two people in there (shocker) and I told the lovely wench taking orders that I just wanted to buy a souffle cup of Craisin's. She laughed at me and told me I would need to buy a whole salad. Biatch was clearly hating on my Chop't bag. And what do you know…I walk on down to Ashby's and they lovingly gave me a big ol' souffle cup of FREE Craisin's. Give it up Just Salad. Even Ashby's is above you. Disgraziata.
Although the employees at this location are hard-working and friendly, I have found that the salads of late are far too heavy on the greens and far too skimpy on the proteins/ expensive toppings to justify the price (or make for a balanced meal).
It physically pains me to write this review — I used to love Just Salad. Heck, I practically lived there. But, I just can't tolerate it anymore. "It" being the prices combined with the decline of customer service. The staff — not just at this location, but every location I've been to in the last month — don't care. To them, it's just salad. (See what I did there? I know, I'm hysterical.) But, to me, it's "I'm paying $12.00 for a salad that's already overpriced, please, at the very least, make it correctly."
I stopped in today at lunchtime for my new favorite salad, the Cajun El Paso Grill. (For anyone that loves spicy salads, try it — you're mouth will be on fire! Also, be sure to get it with the Smokey Poblano Ranch — it's better than the vinaigrette.) The line was super long, but it really wasn't that bad — time-wise. The girl taking orders was friendly and welcoming, too. It all went downhill at the salad bar, though.
The girl, quite literally, threw my salad together. As in, the tomatoes that she threw at my salad — at (!!!) — didn't even make it into the bowl. Okay…I'm exaggerating, three tomatoes made it into my salad, but two were runaways. Regardless, this is unacceptable. I also doubt she put everything into my salad that I paid for — she was too busy making four (!!!) salads at once. Now, I understand multi-tasking because it's busy, but if you can't make four salads at once — don't do it! I would rather wait an extra minute and get what I paid for than leave quickly with a half-assed salad. In addition to unsuccessfully making four salads, she put her ungloved hand and the paper orders in my salad (!!!) when she was moving the bowl over to the next station. Like, seriously?! I cannot even begin to describe how disgusted I was by her lack of hygiene and that I was paying $12.00 for a tainted salad.
I told the girl at checkout what had happened, expecting a small discount or, at the very least, a little compassion, but she really couldn't care less. All in all, it was a frustrating experience and I was left wondering if the salad really was worth it. I'm sure I could've gone somewhere else just as delicious, just as healthy and cheaper — I'm looking at you, Terri!
However, having said all that (whew!), I still gave this location three stars because the Cajun El Paso Grill salad is really f***ing good, the line moves pretty quickly at lunchtime, the man who chopped my salad and the girl taking orders were friendly and, most importantly, I cannot (solely) blame the employees at this location for the price increase.
I really like just salad for a quick lunch or dinner option that you won't feel guilty about. They have a seasonal salad called "sweet mama" that I am currently obsessed with. I really like it in a wrap but if I am trying to cut calories the salad is pretty good as well. Definitely a go to spot for lunch and they get through the line quickly! Always a plus.
Very impressed by this locations efficiency. I've been going to hale and hearty whenever I want a salad for lunch and it really takes forever. Only complaint would be the high prices. Otherwise, as far as this location goes, the selection is on point and the service is impressive. Great for if you only have a few minutes to pick something up.
