There are a number of restaurants in the area competing for your attention in the salad/bowl world, and this is a solid one. The ingredients are fresh, the preparation is quick and the portion is very nice. I got the Kale Caesar and I added shrimp as a protein. The total cost, including a surprisingly large portion of shrimp (7 medium size shrimp, cleaned very well and served chilled) was very reasonable. The salad itself was very good and the shrimp brought it to another level. My partner got the Shrimp Spring Roll salad. Again, it looked great and was very tasty. The portions are very generous. The Staff were friendly and prepared our salads efficiently. The seating area is bright and comfortable. read more

Late night salad run and It was really good. The "Kale Caesar" is always my go to w/ "heavy" dressing. However, I'm not a huge fan of their chicken; It's plain and I think It could be cooked some more. Overall the inside is clean and they deliver quick and efficient service. read more

Friendly staff, fresh ingredients, and *very* generous servings. Just what I needed. I'll be back again soon.

Salads are very fresh and delicious. Indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of options (premixed menu salads or build your own). Only 4 stars cause of the hefty price - and small portions for the paid add-ons. read more

NEVER AGAIN! Our salads were rotten and spoiled. The arugula was yellow, rotting and slimy. Instructions were not followed. We ordered snap peas but received edamame, which one of us is allergic to. We stated for the hard boiled egg & avocado to be on the side but both were mixed in and mushy crumbles (not even recognizable). This review is for the Wildwood shopping center in Bethesda, MD. We'll stick with Honeygrow which has always been exceptional. We rarely leave a negative review but our salads were pathetically inedible. How does a restaurant serve this? SMH! read more

My family still lives in the Potomac area but I only come back to visit. I used to LOVE Chopt-- the experience of picking your ingredients and watching it all get chopped in front of you, the energy from the staff. Maybe I had high expectations due to nostalgia, but I was underwhelmed. My salad was fine (after all, I did pick out everything that was in it) but it just felt bland. I got greens, quinoa, celery, cucumber, tomato, chickpeas, chicken, and dressing. My mom ordered the Ultimate, and I ended up eating some of hers because it had way more flavor than what I conjured up. I think my choices were simply a miss, and also I had wayyyyy too high expectations from nostalgia. Next time I go, I'm going to try a warm bowl and I'm excited for that! read more

I've visited other locations before, so I figured I'd check out this location to grab a reasonable lunch with a friend who is on a semi Keto plan. Parking at this location is a bit hectic. We parked in back which was easier and safe than walking through the busier parking. Friend and I both got the Palm Beach Salad. It was as expected. The dressing does make a difference though cause my friend had to skip the dressing while mine had some. Would have liked my salad chopped up a bit more, but I wasn't watching the person behind the counter making mine as he had given us our ticket and pointed us towards the cashier. This location has plenty of seating. It's clean. Relatively quiet. Staff were friendly. Will visit this location again to see if it gets bumped up to 4 stars. read more

Excellent online ordering and pick up. I placed my order 10 minutes before store opening and it was ready when they opened. I got a text message telling me that it was ready. I ordered the Classic Cobb Salad with no blue cheese but cojita cheese instead. I also placed in the note section, no utensils or napkins. I asked that they use as little packaging and reduce waste. They did exactly that. I got there and my order was sitting on the shelf and when I checked to make sure everything looked right, I was pleasantly pleased. read more

I must say, in general, I am not a big salad shop kind of guy but I was impressed here. Wanted a light lunch in the area and thought about checking this out. Line was very long but service was FAST. I was honestly in the store, 7 mins tops! Very nice and clean inside, like a brand new look. I had the Kale Caesar Salad with chicken and it was great! Salad was made to order right in front of me chopped and mixed in with the dressing. The kale was good, chicken cooked just right and was totally filling. It's hard for me to get full off of salads alot so I was glad this one did the job. They have multiple locations in the DMV area and the East Coast. I highly recommend coming here for a nice salad and fast service. You WONT be disappointed! read more

Here is a picture of the salad I ordered online from Chopt for the 100th or so time. Notice anything about it, like that the bowl is only HALF filled? WTF, Chopt??? I'd this happens again, you lose this customer for good. read more

It's a nice clean service oriented place to grab a salad or even a warm bowl. Been a few times and service is consistent. Salads are made to order. Menu choices are a safe bet and a la carte make your own is available. Parking is vast and this location is busy most of the time. Will return to enjoy a healthier food options. read more

Love this place! We were visiting some family in the area and decided to come here for a salad. So glad we did. We sat outside even though there was plenty of indoor seating. One of the employees greeted us in the line and was very friendly. They have a great selection of greens and toppings for the salad and you can custom make your own. The salad was plentiful and full of fresh ingredients. They also had calorie count for salad dressings etc. I will definitely be back if I'm in the area again for a great spot for lunch in a convenient location with a parking lot. read more

I'm in this plaza often, but this was my first time at Chopt. I ordered a warm grain bowl called the Mediterranean. It was full of colorful, crunch feta and tangy vegetables. There was a nice spiciness that was not overwhelming. Lately, I've been more into plant based meals so I really liked that their meal was packed with vibrant foliage, but had just enough chicken so that I didn't feel like I was missing out the protein I'm used to eating. I'd love to try other other bowls in the near future. They had a cauliflower rice option that you can choose instead of grains in your bowl. My only feedback is that I wish my bowl had a little more dressing. Although, in hindsight I'm sure they would have given me more if I had just asked. Quality, good food here! read more

Located in the Balducci's shopping center. Parking is plentiful. First time here and I think I might love it but it's too early to tell! If you're looking for something a more refreshing then stick with the cold salads but if not try a warm salad. I got the chicken tinga salad (warm salad) and it kinda reminded me of a healthier Chipotle or California Tortilla. My friend got the steak salad and another friend got the kebab cobb. Both their salads were refreshing! I can't wait to go again and take my sisters here :) You can order something off the menu or create your own. After eating here we went to Balducci's and got delicious dessert! :) read more

Yet again, Chopt managed to screw up the order .. the exact same order I place every single for Sunday. If they were busy I would understand more but every single time we go, Fish Taco next door is full and Chopt is empty. The worse thing is I called and the so called "manager" did not take ownership for the issue and asked me to call back on Tuesday or Wednesday to "try to speak to the manager" when I thought he was the manager? Absolutely no ownership of the mistake. Really bad business going on there .. read more

It's no secret to those who know me that I love Chop't. It's definitely a go to lunch spot. This specific location has a crowded parking lot, but I've seen worse. It's always busy and they are fast and efficient. Today when I visited for my normal Santa Fe salad, the staff were extra peppy (which I like). They always have destination salad options that change. I almost veered away from my usual order, but had last minute doubts and went with my trusted friend the Santa Fe (mentioned above). I never add meat because I don't think the salad needs it. It's filled with corn, tomato, avocado, pepper jack cheese, and fried onions and always always always delicious! I will remain a fan. read more

It'd be a great idea if they didn't salt their proteins. Can't eat there. Guys--That's what table salt and salt shakers are for. Don't force everyone to eat your overly salted food. You'd have a lot more business if you actually paid attention to health. It's supposed to be healthy. Serving healthy food and asking people if they want salt packets is easier than turning away customers, don't you think? Oh--I forgot. It's a franchise--. I guess serving trash to people who are so lazy and want everything done for them they can't even season their own food are who you want. Oh, well. read more

I go to Chop't every so often and have a great experience every time. Usually when I want to treat myself because I try my best to make my own salads rather than buying them. The most recent time, I chose to get the Santa Fe salad sans the tomatoes. I loved how the guy behind the counter urged me to replace the tomatoes with something else so that I could get my money's worth. They have an impressive variety of options, and some warm bowls too. Alternatively, you can make your own. There's ample seating and the line goes pretty fast. Make sure to ask for bread if you like, because its complimentary. I loved the Santa Fe and would definitely get it again. Depending on when you go, the parking sitch can either be a breeze or a nightmare (lunch breaks are the worst; nighttime is fine). read more

This is the second Chopt location I've visited. I like the variety that's available and how quickly they prepare a nice, healthy meal. Clean, quiet, quick. What's not to like? read more

Chop'T is one of great companies that listens and responds. Shortly after I posted the situation with the two problem salads, they reached out to me directly to make it right. So glad since I really do love their salads (and still think they're the best farm-to-table and local sourcing food establishments anywhere). read more

A very tasty and healthy salad place! Go here pretty regularly and use the App to pay. Really like the Mexican Caesar Salad! It is probably my favorite. Normally get great service and correct ingredients put in my bowl. Adding extra toppings will get charged a little more, but it's OK. I don't eat salads that often, but this kind of place makes me want to eat it for someone who is pretty health conscious and keeps track of calories. Going to recommend it to everyone! read more

This place irritates me to the core. Today was my last visit to this chain. The idea is awesome, but when you order something online, pay extra for extra protein then you get home to find zero chicken in your damn salad, it's so frustrating. It's not the first time this happens either, so I don't think it's a simple mistake and from now on I'm spending my money elsewhere. read more

If you're looking for a place to satisfy your salad fix, Chop't has got your back! At Chop't, they give you the freedom to create custom salads tailored to your tastes. They also have some great options for you to choose from on their menu so if it's your first time, I would stick to choosing one of these. It was my first time trying this chain, but I decided to go ahead and give it a shot. Ordering is easy. It's like an assembly line: you choose your ingredients, the employees chop everything up with a crescent-shaped blade, and then you're off to pay & enjoy your salad. I ended up choosing their Santa Fe salad, and was not disappointed. My salad had chopped romaine lettuce, avocados, tomatoes, corn, fried onions, and pepper jack cheese. They were a little heavy on the salad dressing, so I suggest you ask for dressing on the side. The bowl they put your salad in may look a little small, but looks can be deceiving. They actually give you a decently-sized portion that's perfect for a light lunch. I like the fact that they give you a complimentary piece of pita bread so you can make your own mini-wrap from it. The interior is spacious, clean, and super GREEN. The walls are a bright green color, which really works with the place. I don't know exactly what it is, but the interior is very inviting. They have an ample number of seats as well, so finding a seat shouldn't be too much trouble. The salad creations here definitely exceeded my expectations. Chop't has delicious salads that'll rock your world! A must-try if you're looking for something new for lunch. read more

Chop't (Wildwood Shopping Center) - Are you trying to chop up the franchise? When I heard that Chop't was opening in Bethesda, it was the highlight of my day. After work I rushed over and ordered the Sante Fe salad. As I was paying for it, I took out my Chop't loyalty card, excited to get another point and one step closer to my free wrap. However, my smile quickly crumbled and formed a frown. This location didn't honor the loyalty card because they wanted to try something different. I have been ALL of the other 8 locations in the DC/MD/VA locations NUMEROUS times and they all swiped my loyalty card. I'm not sure why this Chop't is operating as its franchise and not honoring the card. In addition, the employee did NOT give the pita in the salad. WHAT?! The pita is the best part! The Wildwood Shopping Center will chop up any good experiences you've had of Chop't. read more

I am admittedly new to the Chopt shtick, so I have to say SweetGreen is on par for freshness but has a mild advantage in service and portioning. SG staff are as chipper as these guys are gloomy. Assembly line works three salads at a time. While it's neat to watch the greens get chopped, I wasn't aware of carb options or loyalty card until I glanced at reviews afterwards. I dig the fountain soda options and malt vinegar chips, and my (alright) braised tinga chicken would've been cheaper had it rained a few hours sooner (snow/rain discounts are a great idea). Plenty of seating inside early in the lunch hour, and I grabbed a spot at one of the two tables outside. A healthier Wildwood alternative to LPQ I suppose. read more

I absolutely get the reason why Chop't is a popular grab-and-go place in the DMV area. The greens are fresh, the protein look clean, and each staff member is an expert of their craft along the salad assembly line. While I can't fathom the idea of paying ~$14 for a salad, I realized that for a lunch or light dinner, the portion size is about right. If I were to buy all the ingredients myself, sure that'd be cheaper, but isn't that why we pay for convenience? I do have one criticism (hence 4 stars): they are skimpy about the protein. I could fool a vegetarian that my Chop't salad has roasted chicken. Anyhow the parking situation is a disaster on a beautiful spring/summer day. But rest assured that if you circle the parking lot long enough, there will be plenty of people leaving since there are a ton of grab-and-go places along the strip. Pro tip: you can decide exactly how chopped your salad is, or not chopped at all. Some days I just like them going to work chopping away like salad iron chefs. read more

I absolutely love love LOVE chop't. I used to have it all the time when I worked in DC. And still when I go into DC, I like to make a stop at the Chinatown location. So of course I love that they opened one in the suburbs (Rosslyn doesn't count since they don't have parking) But why the 3 stars you ask? Because they don't take the frequent choppers card. Wtf guys?! If I'm going to pay you $10 for a salad I want it to go toward my 10th free one! read more

This Chop't location is brand new. I've been to the Union Station Chop't a couple of times so it's nice to have one closer by. Chop't salads are pretty big and you get a piece of pita bread with them. Some of them are pretty unhealthy but I like that they have the spa dressing selections which cut out some of the calories and fat. I made my own salad but there were a couple on the menu that caught my eye. Spa tzitaki yogurt dressing is my favorite with some smoked tofu for protein. The line here moved quick. I was impressed. Parking here is convenient since there is a lot for the shopping center. Unless you go at a busy hour, parking should be no problem. read more

I like Chop't, I really do. I can't help it. Chop't has great salads and no one can change my mind about that. Now, if you're going to Chop't and buying a Ceasar salad for $10, then I'm going to call you a crazy person! Go to a salad shop for their signature salads or go somewhere else! Seriously! Don't come complaining to me when your salad is just a salad because you ordered the Cobb salad when you could have gotten a Steakhouse or Santa Fe! Today, I got the Canyon Road Cobb which is a destination salad. Yum! Chicken, quinoa, cheese, jalapenos and sweet potatoes with romaine and kale! Yes, the girl chopped my salad to teeny bits. I probably should have said something rather than just watching, but oh well. It still tasted delicious! With so many different ingredients and the sweet and smoky chipotle sauce, this salad hit the spot for my poor tummy that is on a healthy food for dinner lifestyle that hates it. I got all the taste for half the calories! My friend who came with got the Modern Asian Salad with 5 flavor asain dressing. She didn't get any meat with it, so it ended up being your regular tasting salad. Nothing impressive. It would have tasted better with some chicken. Overall, I'm serious about loving this place for a salad place. My favorite is still the steakhouse with the steakhouse blue cheese dressing. It's a very simple steak salad and that dressing is to die for! But, I do agree that some of these salads are not worth the $10. read more

In my last review, I mentioned a snafu that the store made in leaving any protein out of my salad. In response to that, the company contacted me to make up for their error. I appreciate their willingness to correct the error, and will probably keep using the Chopt here as a result of their attentive service. The salads are really good no matter the location, and I cannot get enough of that bacon dressing! read more

This was my first Chopt experience. I typically go to Cava around the corner but I wanted to change it up. First, I need to admit I do not typically go for salads, but I had just finished a 3-mile walk so I felt the need to be "healthy." This location has prime real estate. A great spot (for Bethesda) with outdoor sitting to allow good people watching form the Capital Crescent Trail. More importantly, it is far enough from the main road to make the outside seating more enjoyable. There isn't a constant buzz from the engines that drive by as with most of the other locations along the roads. The Staff was friendly. The food appeared and tasted fresh. The serving size felt bottomless. I felt like it took me forever to eat my Cobb salad...and I can eat a lot of food, and fast. Salad lovers probably love a place like this. For me, I will go when I am feeling adventurous since I would much rather go for a guiltier vice. Overall, good experience, no issues, above average salad. read more

I come here often for lunch and would come everyday if my budget allowed. The staff is efficient and friendly, and the ingredients are always really fresh. The manager also seems really on top of things. The only downside is that the parking lot can be really packed at mealtimes, and seems to be getting worse for some reason. Sometimes it is worth it to just park near the bank and walk. read more

I used to frequent. And I mean, FRE-QUENT this place when I worked down wall street in NYC. Oh MY Goodness!! I love this place. My favorite aspect: The consistency! Consistency is everything. I love that I can go to the MD location, the DC location, the NYC location in financial district, uptown and midtown and no matter what, my salad tastes exactly the same! FRESH! That is what is up, people! For realsies! I was headed to the mall and nearly got into a car accident when I noticed the Chop't on my right hand side, too bad I was in the left lane headed to the mall :( So, I immediately made a U-ie, and finagled my way over to my beloved = the COBB. So good!!! I love you. I add craisins and get the smoky bacon russian dressing, both on the side and in the salad. I swear to you it is A-MA-ZING!!!!! It rocks my socks every single time. Let it rock yours! Ugh... just thinking about it makes my mouth water.. and I literally JUST ate. Dammit Chop't! You and your irresistibly delicious salad creations! :) read more

Bro, how do you forget the chicken in an $11 Key West Jerk Chicken salad? ‍‍‍ They were able to refund me and claim my next salad from their location will be "on the house" but we'll see..

One of my favorite places to eat. The salads here are so good. They have some great combinations and everything taste fresh. I love how at the end they chop up every thing. Chopping the salad makes it into the perfect pieces of mixed salad so you are not only getting the big leafy salad at first. The food here is very healthy and tasty. I almost decided to become a vegetarian after eating here, but the salad with chicken taste very good. The employees are very polite and very good at what they do. They are so professional and mix things in perfectly. The portions are huge and usually a salad last two meals. I highly recommend everyone eat over here at least once, but I am sure you will want to come back over and over again. read more

My experience was fine, but I have to say whoever the manager is was being extremely rude to her own employees! I watched as she blasted directive after directive to each of her employee without even saying thank you! She then went on to say "I am watching you" to an employee who was doing her job just fine. You could see all the employees cower when she looked over. Find a new manager! read more
