I've been to the 17th Street location many times, but unfortunately it's now closed. This Hyland location has a beautiful patio area for dining outside! Loved it, but unfortunately I wasn't a fan of the salad I chose. The ground chicken or turkey (forgot which) was tasteless and the salad dressing that came with it was equally tasteless. I didn't use it. I ordered the cauliflower appetizer that tasted like turmeric, but wasn't listed as an ingredient and for $11, the portion size was 5-6 VERY small florets and the other half of the plate was 5-6 spears of jicama. Always liked the food at the 17th Street location and I know they regularly change the menu. We enjoyed the nice day out, but unfortunately won't be back for the food here. read more

Loved the earthy feel of an ambiance and the staff is extremely nice! I felt the food did lack as far as far as flavor. The inside is spacious and huge. read more

Was driving through the area and wanted some yummy and healthy food. I searched Yelp for a healthy option and right off the freeway as Greenleaf! I got so lucky. I pre-ordered on their website so the food was ready when I arrived. It only took 15 minutes for my two taco orders and my nacho orders to be ready. It is in a very cute shopping center. It looks like it's high-end furniture that's being sold there. Easy parking! Tons of seating inside and if you wanna enjoy outside, there's tons of seating as well. I actually didn't sit at the restaurant, but I sat in the garden area where there's a ton of open seats for anyone to sit at. I enjoyed the waterfall, people watching, and most importantly, the sun! I made sure to order the chicken Tinga for both my taco and nachos because that's what the yelp review says we're really good. The nachos were really yummy and crispy. They left the cover open a little bit so we wouldn't get too saggy which was a really good call. read more

we got two wraps that came with spinach tortilla caesar salad wrap- classic, and had a good amount (but not too much) of caesar dressing. there was some crunch too which was satisfying sweet and spicy thai wrap- a seasonal item! it has rice noodles in it, some veggies and chicken. it was really good and refreshing!! the sauce it comes with made it even better too! both were delicious! their menu is also pretty big, which was great. there are so many options, ranging from wraps, burgers, sandwiches, and bowls! the service was also very good, they were so nice! it's funny how we would've never found this place if we aren't furniture shopping- this lil plaza has other food spots too and it's so hidden! read more

Food was pretty tasty, I got a kale salad with quinoa and it was quite good. The Buffalo cauliflower did not taste too delicious and it was a fairly small portion but not too bad. Atmosphere inside is nice. Parking can be quite challenging in the evening with all the other restaurants. Overall a good spot I may or may not come back. read more

Food was really good, fresh ingredients and very visually appealing. I ordered 2 tacos & avocado toast and matcha latte to drink. But the patio seating was the cherry on top, so peaceful and serene. Definitely a hidden secret. Service was also good, you order at the counter and they bring it to your table. read more

This is only for Costa Mesa location. I wrote a review about 8 months ago sharing my disappointment in the quality here--especially with the Chop Chop salad. I decided to give it another try today, hoping it had improved, but unfortunately it hasn't. The salad still does not include garbanzo beans or the pepperoni blend, and it barely has any red onions. It's really disappointing that the Costa Mesa kitchen version of Greenleaf doesn't live up to the standard. I also don't think it's fair to advertise the salad with all of the listed ingredients when they aren't actually included. Only writing a review because I really hope the quality can improve so I can get my yummy salad again! read more

I was really excited to hopefully try this place, but unfortunately they apparently swapped from their gluten-free buns, to Udi's gluten-free bread. Udi's bread is not bad, it's just boring as all hell, and a little denser than I like. I wish they used somebody like Schar, or Glutino or someone else.. I was really hoping for a great sandwich, but I don't want one on inferior bread. Maybe someday they'll change back, or swap to a better option. Crossing my fingers. I must say though.. That the person I spoke with on the phone was incredibly nice and professional. Again ... One of the reasons why I was really excited about going here. Everybody says how great it is, except people say the GF bread is not very good... read more

Ordered lunch around 230 with virtually no one in there except me and maybe two or three other people. Very clean and spacious. Bathrooms are a sign of overall cleanliness and they were pristine. Health conscious and intuitive eatz were what the menu consisted of. Price ranges were $15 and up. I chose a turkey burger and it was $16 by itself. It was exactly what I thought it would have been. Juicy and full of flavor I added a side of bbq it was great. If you're looking to turn a leaf to healthier eatz try greenleaf they won't disappoint! read more

Isidro was super helpful. Online order was slightly wrong but he took care of it right away. Great customer service

Love all the healthy food and that kids eat free ! Great customer service and love the happy hour specials !

I ordered lunch from this place, it came up as recommended when I logged onto Uber Eats and searched for something healthy to eat today for lunch. When I browsed the menu I saw the cute name, La La bowl and the ingredients and description looked great. I'm a big fan of black beans so I was excited for my bowl! You can add chicken or shrimp, it doesn't usually come with a protein option, it's 5 dollars extra for chicken, not sure how much for shrimp. I also got me a lemonade to go with my bowl. It arrived beautifully packaged, I was very impressed and ate most of it right away saving the rest for later. It was amazing, I loved the spicy dressing it came with too! You can tell that the vegetables and products used to make this were fresh and good quality max the cook took his time in making it oh so perfect. It cured my hunger and tastes really good! The lemonade was great too. Thank you! read more

The food does taste good but it's insanely over priced for very small portions. $74 for a salad (small portion like a side), burger (no fries included), and panini with fries, didn't even include a drink. Honestly you will need to spend $150 to feed two people. The portions were smaller than a salad or sandwich you buy at Starbucks but 4x price. Ridiculous don't waste your money. read more

Part of the SOCO shopping center. Indoor and outdoor seating. Dog and kid friendly. Casual atmosphere. Order at the register, they give you a number, and bring your order to you. Fast and friendly service. As of July 2023, the following cost around $45 with tax and small tip: cabo kale salad with chicken, 305 bowl (carnitas, avocado, rice, beans, pineapple, other veggies, salsa, corn tortillas), and side of fries. I'd argue a bit on the pricey side for a non-sitdown restaurant, but such is life these days. Everything was great, and good-sized portions! More than enough for two people, even though we were also sharing with a hungry baby. read more

I am kind of a food snob, and mainly stick to asian foods or culturally ethnic foods. But it was my manager's birthday so we ordered here for lunch. I was so presently impressed. The Angus burger was literally the best burger I have had in my lifetime!!! My coworker and I split the cali salad bowl as our side as she got the Angus burger too. Idk how they made the meat so perfect... how the bread was not soggy even after eating it after 30 minutes of it being made... but the patty was so tender. And delicious. Usually, when burger patties are thick, they don't taste great but this one... omg. Idk. Just try it. I think it's a great burger choice If you want a delicious perfect burger without feeling sluggish after. Even right down to the bread, it was awesome. That west coast cali salad bowl was great too... Who would ever think that turkey would make a salad so good! The vegan ranch is the dressing we went with. Definitely coming again. Cute shopping area too! read more

We loved our last-minute lunch at Greenleaf today! Both of our children ate free and our meals were all delicious. Definitely coming back here! read more

First time coming to Greenleaf, and I was not disappointed! Great atmosphere and in the SoCo and The OC Mix area which has a great outdoor ambiance. Right away the service was fantastic, friendly, didn't have to wait in line, and food was made and ready within a timely manner, thank you. I ordered the Vegan Fork and Knife burger and by far it was the best tasting plant based burger I have ever had. Great taste and flavors, no bun, and did a small order of garlic fries and I can say I would 110% come back and order this again. read more

We absolutely love Greenleaf and my daughter. Kate, worked at the location in Costa Mesa for many years but unfortunately that spot has closed. They still have another one in Costa Mesa, but in kind of a furniture/mall which I probably would not go to unless I was over there shopping. There is a new one in the Santa Ana John Wayne airport and it's fabulous. Brand new, Great staff and the same great food. So we will definitely be hitting Greenleaf when we travel. read more

Was meeting up for lunch with other moms from our kids' school. With moms coming and going and a larger group, it was super convenient to be able to order at the counter--splitting a tab or asking for separate checks can be such a headache! It has a lowkey, casual vibe it was the perfect place for our group. The food was delicious, reasonably priced, and staff friendly! read more

It was awful. The food was terrible. Specifically, the chicken in the panini and caesar salad wrap was rubbery and appeared to be similar to pre-cooked chicken you would find at a store. Also, the fries were stale, cold, and hard as a rock. We left after only taking a few bites. I do not plan to return. Had to leave a good tip because customer service was so great. read more

Everything was delicious and the staff are so friendly and helpful! The citrus carnitas plate was flavorful and had delicious corn tortillas with tomatillo sauce that brought it altogether.

Love coming to this place for a nice healthy lunch to start the week food is quick and staff is friendly.

Food was really good:) I liked the sweet potato fries. Service was good, nice workers .

Decent sandwich. Nice location. The sweet potato fries were very good. Cubano sandwich pretty good though turkey looked better maybe.

Commendable mission statement: Bringing the highest quality, freshest and most delicious food that is also good for you. I really like the goal of making healthy foods that taste good on it's own and not make you feel like you are suffering or getting a lesser-meal. Chopshop Chicken Salad: romaine, salami, mozzarella, tomatoes, cucumber, garbanzos, pepperoncini, shallots & croutons. Way too much non-vegetables, felt like it was all meat and very little greens and tomatoes. Did taste nice and fresh but had to add our own romaine at home to dilute it a bit. Turkey Melt on Pretzel Bun: all-natural turkey, smoked gouda, truffled spinach, onion & whole grain mustard aioli. Sounds so good, it was a bit haphazardly put together and the pretzel bun was burned on top and bottom with large sections charred in black. read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch before taking a call in the OC Mixx. The staff were super friendly and helped us pick out some solid choices. We got the Cobb salad and Kim's Breakfast Sandwich. Both were pricey, but I felt like the portion size was solid given that fact. The ambiance seemed to be mostly a business lunch crowd, and most of the business seemed to be takeout. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to come here, but if you're in the area give it a try! read more

Very good lit was so delicious amazing good costumer service the place smelled so good and it look so good
