My boss introduced me to Simply Salad months ago and I order from here at least once a week. I even…read moregot my parents hooked on them. I have nothing but good things to say about this establishment. I love the option of building your own salad, however, I'm a one trick pony and I usually just go for their Signature Salads they have and adjust accordingly to my preferences. I appreciate the fact that they suggest specific dressings for you depending on the salad you get. My absolute favorite salads are the Hipster, the Chinatown, and now as of today- the Thai It Up. I absolutely love the symphony of flavors with their Thai Peanut dressing and their Sweet Sriracha Vinaigrette- currently salivating as I'm writing this. Their salads may be a bit pricey but for the portions they give you and how consistent the quality is, I'd say it's worth the love they put into it. Their salads NEVER miss. Even though there have been rare hiccups like when they accidentally forget an extra dressing or forgetting to include another topping, Manager Simone Agee always makes it right by making sure to include credit for my next order. Their app is fairly easy to use and I love the convenience of being able to order ahead of time for both pickup and delivery. They always keep the inside clean and staff have great customer service and are friendly. They've been able to keep me a loyal, happy customer. And as long as I'm in Long Beach, I'll keep coming back. Thanks Long Beach Simply Salad Team!

I was offered a little discount for ordering through their app so I took advantage of that. Ordered in the morning for pickup early afternoon. I stuck with the basic build your own salad... you are allowed greens mix, choice of only 5 veggie ingredients for the base price, a dressing. I didn't need to add meat or more veggies as I was taking it home to eat later. Ordering was easy on the app. I arrived about 20 minutes before my scheduled pickup time, but the staff at pickup was very nice and let me know it would be up quickly. Store was fairly empty at that time. Restroom was available with code. They asked if I needed a bag for the salad bowl but I had brought my own. Utensils and salt/pepper were available to take. I liked the variety of chips and bottled drinks they offered but did not get any extras this visit. Salad was a good sized bowl. It included a little slice of pita bread that was tasty. There were lots of the sliced black olives and edamame. I understand having everything chopped bite sized, great of you are on the go, but my lettuce and other items were diced so finely... I could barely find the cucumber, the pickled onions were still pretty bitter tho tiny, and having grape tomatoes sliced up made them lose their flavor and texture. Mixed together, though, with some of the creamy Mediterranean dressing I chose, it was delicious and filling.

Mary, our server, made the experience even better--she was attentive, knowledgeable, and gave us great recommendations. Every dish she suggested was spot on and full of flavor. We ordered the family brunch and especially loved the lamb chops and the kafta--both were standouts and definitely something I'd come back for. We ended the meal with Turkish coffee, which paired perfectly with the Umm Ali and Knafeh and made for a memorable finish. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and a special way to celebrate with family. Looking forward to returning!

The restaurant has a cute, no-fuss decor style that still feels cozy and elevated. We sat inside, which seemed like a much nicer vibe than the outdoor seating. Service was fast and friendly throughout the meal. I ordered the chittara pomodoro, which was so tasty and clearly tasted homemade in the best way. For dessert, we had the panna cotta, which was the perfect light and creamy ending to the meal. Overall, such a charming little spot for a cozy dinner.

Loaded with cheese and full of flavor, it definitely hit the spot.

The location itself is pretty small, but it seems like a solid spot for a quick and easy pickup.

Overall, it was solid--sauce had good flavor, cheese was decent, and the dough was nice. Nothing mind-blowing, but definitely a respectable slice. My only issue was the balance--there was a bit too much cheese for the crust, so even folding it New York-style, it didn't hold up well and kind of fell apart. A little more crisp on the bottom would've made a big difference. I also tried their Sicilian grandma-style focaccia pizza, and honestly, that was a huge letdown. It had this dusty, raw flour taste right away, was dry and spongy, and way overpowered with Parmesan. It just didn't come together at all--pretty disappointing, especially for the price. I've had frozen pizza that tasted better. Ended up just picking at the cheese to salvage something. On the plus side, the service was friendly and the space itself is chill--nice casual vibe with a few tables inside and outside to hang out. All in all, the regular slice was decent, but the focaccia pizza really missed the mark for me. Probably not a spot I'd go back to.

There wasn't quite as much meat as I expected either. The salad was very well done with cucumbers, tomatoes, and radishes (I didn't want the onions). I did ask for a side of tzatziki as it was quite tasty. Expect to pay $20 for a plate. There are only a handful of tables for dining. We did eat there but I can see how it might be better suited for takeout.

Boy was I pleasantly surprised by Saffron. We decided to go here on a weeknight. There were not…read morethat many people hanging out, but we still decided to get some Mediterranean food. We saw that Saffron was a good choice, so we made the move. Okay, Pine avenue in Long Beach has experienced some empty locations. This spot is located behind Chipotle where the movie theater used to be. Although it's nestled in the back of a couple of other restaurants, Saffron is easily displayed. I decided on the chicken skewer meal. That will run you about $20. The meat was tender, the hummus was delicious and homemade, the garlic sauce was exquisite, and the rice clearly had saffron in it. The pita bread that they served with the meal was definitely homemade and delicious. All in all it was a $20 well spent. If you're in downtown Long Beach on Pine avenue, I highly recommend going to Saffron for some excellent Mediterranean fare. Give them a try. You will be happy you did.

I stopped by for some lonche & I ordered their salmon bowl, hold the edamame. It comes with a piece of focaccia that I assumed was their signature thing .... But it was not that great. I think it is way too doughy compared to typical focaccia. I like my focaccia airy, with some bounce. This one was like a dense bread. Definitely not my forte for having focaccia. You're able to see in my attached photo just how thick and dense it looks. The salmon bowl itself was pretty refreshing. I think the dresssingggg was perfectly tailored to the bowl. Not too acidic, not too sweet, not too salty. It dressed the bowl up real nice. The salmon was tender, nicely cooked, not chewy-- I hate when I get cheewwwyyy salmon I want fish not gum. The rice and sweet potatoes were perfect! Absolutely a nice bed made for the salmon to lay on. I tried the Shirley temple it's way too sweet, more grenadine than anythang. I just optd for half unsweetened tea & half of their lemonade. It was average. The cranberry cookie was pretty good! Not something I usually lean towards but I was wowd to taste how good it was. Cranberry gave it that nice kick of tang on your tongue. Service was friendly, I ordered through the kiosk screen. It's clean inside and in the restroom as well. Plenty of parking in the plaza.

Here's to a well-deserved updated review to end the year…read more Since posting my first review for them, RightMealz has become family. Chris Sweeney has become a beacon for the local community (Long Beach and Los Angeles). He speaks up for many who have been through it within the past year, and never makes you feel like you're forgotten. Admittedly, sometimes I've avoided stopping in due to funds being tight and he's let myself and the community know he's here for us. I've volunteered with RightMealz during the fires that devastated the greater LA area. He was the one who put our city on the map first with multiple drives for necessities, and delivered with a uhaul regularly. Usually, I fiend for the avocado toast with a slightly runny egg because chef knows how to make it just right. I pair it with a lavender latte, or an iced Chai latte. Other times I'm checking the fridge for chef's turkey mushroom meatballs with cashew cheese. I do not like turkey or mushrooms... But that meal is cleverly made to make me eat both and want more. My SO loves the breakfast bowls in house. I'm a sucker for the open-air space. I take people to RightMealz for the food, ambiance, and for the hospitality. I shazaam Chris' songs playing from his random playlists. I'm forever a fan.

Honestly, the bread here is good--that crouton proves it--so sandwiches are probably your best bet. Unfortunately, even the crouton couldn't save the soup. Salty, bland, and left rushed and unfinished.
