Came to try Just Salad for the first time. You pick a base, protein and up to 3 sides. They have salad, warm bowls, wraps, snacks and soups. I got rice with chicken sweet potatoes edemas corns lettuces. The staff did a toss on my warm bowl. Interesting. The ingredients are fresh. Portion is not bad. They have tables for dining in but most people do takeout. No wait or short wait. It goes pretty quickly. Overall a good place for quick lunch. read more

This is a pretty bad Just Salad location. The operations of this specific location are very poor. I have noticed a pattern where my orders are significantly delayed due to ingredients being unavailable. I've also had a few instances where I've picked up pre-ordered bowls and there are things missing. The staff are incredibly unfriendly and unhelpful too, you can hear them complaining about customers which is a bit unprofessional when customers are watching. Finally, there is a long line of people waiting during lunch time so plan accordingly if you plan to order at the counter. read more

The weather is heating up, today 80 degrees, which in my book is Salad for lunch, weather. I was in the mood for a Caesar salad and a green juice ( large lunch equals just snacking for dinner). I ordered delivery and it was promptly delivered, packed safely except the juice was on its side but the plastic lid was secure. The pressed green juice was fresh and delicious; my favorite combination of spinach, kale, pineapple and ginger. The perfect juice for a hot day. The Chicken Caesar salad was good just needed a dressing with more pizzazz. I enjoy a creamier dressing when eating Caesar Salad. I received a $5 promo on my first order. Just Salad also offers wraps, bowls and plant based smoothies. The one near my job is located in Greenwich Village on Hudson Street. I see myself ordering a lot of salads as summer fast approaches and will visit their Village location. read more

the food is always delicious and Mansita was so helpful! i will definitely be back. (:

My friends wanted to eat at these expensive sit down places, but I just wanted healthy food for a reasonable price. These salads fit the bill. Lots of choices. Quick service. Relatively healthy (I mean, the salad dressing probably wasn't the healthiest, but it was good!) I'd go everyday after my gym sessions. My favorite is the new Protein Power salad! read more

I was excited to see a Dirt Candy branded salad on the menu but found it totally flavorless. Disappointing.

The salad was massive and delicious. I would eat here regularly if I lived in the area.

I ordered on UberEats and scheduled it for a certain time frame After three time changes, I was in the position where I wasn't able to meet the driver and had to cancel. I was charged even though it was clearly the restaurants fault. read more

tldr; service was rude and hurtful, so even though the food is decent I cannot recommend I actually thought the food was decent here, so it's a shame the service was quite rude to me on my last visit. I asked for the "pick 2" deal which includes salad + soup as an option. I asked for the bbq shroom bowl + soup, and they proceeded to make it for me. I went to checkout, but the cashier charged me regular price for the bowl and the soup, instead of the pick 2 discount price. When I asked about this, the cashier gave me an annoyed look and asked as if I were stupid, what are you talking about? I explained, and she said with exasperation that the warm bowl didn't count (which I didn't know) and when she asked the person who made the bowl, they practically berated me saying "You said 2 items, not pick 2". I did actually say "pick 2," but regardless, in what world does asking for the 2 items with 2 fingers held up not mean the pick 2? Honestly because it was a misunderstanding, it would have been fine if they explained it to me nicely, but they were rude and mean for no reason, causing a disappointing and hurtful experience. No one needs that energy in their lives, so wanted to give a heads up to whoever is considering eating here. read more

I am one of those people who orders the same thing every time--chicken caesar salad with sweet potato topping and/or boiled egg and light ranch dressing. I've never taken issue with the taste, and with the NYU discount and friendly service, I keep coming back. Plus, free wifi and bathroom don't hurt. Some issues I take with the place: - Up until maybe my last 2 orders, they always get my name wrong. I remember once they put my name as Jackie. - The service could be better. Often times I'm at the checkout counter just waiting for someone to appear. - Tables gotta be cleaned regularly. As we all know, some customers are not great at tidying up after themselves. - The new 2 for $12.99 deal sounds good if you want to have more than one item to eat, but let me tell you, that salad is smol. So smol in fact, that I wish I had just gotten the regular salad for $9. - That crunchy avocado toast would've been good, except the "spicy avocado" is genuinely very spicy. I thought it would've been like a white person level kind of spicy, but wow, I had to take gulps of water in between each bite... read more

My orders are always a hit or miss here which is really annoying when you just want some lunch. I usually get the California (romaine, tomatoes, chicken, egg, avocado, almonds, and balsamic vinaigrette) without the almonds. Instead I ask for cucumbers or some other vegetable. I guess I'm just not a big fan of having something super hard and crunchy inside my salads The last time I asked for this they kept the almonds and took out the avocado. THE AVOCAOD IS MY FAVORITE PART. I didn't realize until I got back to the office and couldn't find any avocado when digging through my salad. Once before that they completely didn't even do the substituoon and just gave me the California the way it is even though I clarified my substitution with them. It was even written on the paper slip that they fl ot when you first walk in. Also the workers seem to always joke around d behind the counter so that's probably why my order is more often wrong than right. I feel like no one listens and they have bad communication in moving your order around from person to person to fill it and chop it. Another time they called my name over to a station and I waited there after two others and wondered where my bowl was. Turns out someone moved it to a different station and didn't even bother letting me know. Other than these annoying 'misunderstandings' or what have you, the vegeatnles are at least consistently fresh. I also love the idea that they offer reusable salad bowls to help reduce waste. read more

I think the only reason I go there again and again is because of how warmly Ero greets and how she knows exactly what I want in my salad. It feels so personalized and positive. I have had bad experience with some other staff in the past, so now I make it a point to only wait for Ero to get free. Salads are great in taste as well! Ambiance is great, it's always clean. read more

This is the worst salad place around, I recommend walking the extra few blocks to Chopt. Every time I go here something goes wrong. This time I asked for wontons and got walnuts (gross!) Also, I asked for light dressing... if the dressing were light why is the excess amount gathering at the corner of my bowl???!? read more

I have lived in area many years but won't patronize the location anymore. Do not order on Fridays as they are out of most items cause closed on weekends. Many times Staff has been unprofessional by giving attitude making salads. I think this place may be okay for lunch but my multiple experiences after work have been average to a few times terrible. I have been to Chelsea and Midtown locations and they seem much better managed. read more

This is my favorite Just Salad location in NYC! They're always quick with orders and have been following COVID-19 protocols to the tee. Even when it is busy, they're friendly and get your salad ready in no time. FeeFee and Hector are standouts because they are fast and accommodating. I always look forward to getting my lunches here! read more

I have ordered from this location three times, and they have gotten the order wrong exactly three times. I don't understand how that's even possible but I guess just carelessness by the employees. It's a lunch spot, I'm at work trying to get a quick bite, and literally every single time I've not gotten what I ordered, and have had to waste my own time trying to get the correct order (has never once been possible) and then ultimately a refund. Three times shame on me, won't happen again. Wouldnt bother with this place unless youre happy to eat whatever they throw together based 0% on what you actually ordered. read more

I am very happy to come to this location and met Ero who is very helpful and professional. Her service and patience is greatly appreciated. I would definitely drop by here again. The selection is fantastic and delicious. I met Ron the manager who can multitask well as he had online orders and completing my orders as the store just opened. Overall, wonderful staff, great food, and a clean environment to dine in. Thank you. read more

Note to self - never come to this location ever again. I came here around 5:30pm (first mistake) to grab a quick salad before class, and the place was filthy. There were flies everywhere, there were ingredients all over the place, and the salad base (arugula, spinach, etc.) was not washed properly. They charge extra for EVERYTHING so you basically end up with a $10 salad no matter what. The staff was rude and made me feel rushed even though there were barely any other customers. I'm really not sure why I didn't just walk out right there (I guess I was too hungry) but I took a few bites out of the salad and then I couldn't anymore after what I've seen. Stay far, far away from this place at all costs! Tons of better options in the area. read more

It was tasty but they really skimp you on the protein ( which is extra money) The dressings are pretty tasty, and the toppings are minimal compared to other salad bars. The greens are nice and fresh. I would come here again but try to remember to order double protein. Great for vegans or vegetarians though! read more

Ordering online is really great--I love how all the nutrition facts are laid out in front of you and how it updates when you change, remove, or add a topping. The pickup order was made on time and they didn't miss any of my toppings. My salad wasn't chopped like I asked for but it wasn't that big of a deal. read more

I like Just Salad as a franchise, and the fact that this location has a lot of seating, BUT the staff at this W8th Street location are kinda jerky. They seem very distracted from what they're doing and don't take the time to answer questions clearly or listen. Not everyone here, but too many of them. Mind you, my visits were not during the busy lunch periods. Still, I appreciate their presence in the area and the wide range of healthy add-on options. I also appreciate their clear marking of fat-free and vegan dressings, which many other places don't always take the time to break down. I do hope management can get their team together into a better working unit as like I stated, the business itself is a great one. read more

I was looking for something different to eat since I work in the area and decided to give this place a shot. Upon entering I was immediately greeted by a woman who made me feel very welcomed. I wasn't familiar with how it works so I was taking a bit longer then normal to order. The woman realized that which was cool to observe & offered to walk me through the process which was great because I wanted to create my own salad anyways. The ingredients in the station was clean & looked very presentable so thumbs up to that because it's impossible for me to eat something that doesn't look good. I guess it's true what they say' we eat with our eyes first ! Throughout the course of her making my salad I honestly felt that she was very genuine which made me feel that she cared about what she does. I noticed that passion when I walked through the door so I hope this company understands how blessed they're to have an employee like her as not too many people care to serve with a smile and courtesy now a days! She really went above and beyond for me and that's what made my experience great. Over and above that I was definitely going to need a drink to go with my salad and I peeped they make smoothies. I asked what she recommends and she asked if I was a fan of peanut butter & luckily she asked the right question because I sure am !! So I got the Peanut Butter Warrior & that sh*t was BOMB!! So best believe I'll be back for 2 of those smoothies next time! The woman who helped me was named YENNIFER & I recommend this place for anyone looking for a good salad and smoothie combination! Thanks ! read more

Finally they have a location near NYU. I wish they had this place while i was here during undergrad (although i probably wouldn't have eaten here back then since i wasn't as health conscious as i am now). The salad area is small compared to other Just Salad locations but they do have tables where you can sit. The service here is mixed (not consistent), which I can understand since its fairly new, but they need to learn from the other established locations on how to hold it down. read more

My wife and I went here during our vacation there, and they have all kinds of fresh salads. I wanted the extra 300 calories and had mine put in a wrap, but I didn't have to do that. My wife couldn't finish her's without the wrap. The service is fast, and you can add your own items, and dressings. It is a little expensive tho. read more

I really love salads so I had try this chain out. This was my very first time and Just Salad just happened to be close by. I really like the ambiance of the place. It was very clean. The staff was friendly. I ordered my salad with mesclun greens, dried cranberries, beets, cucumbers and grape tomatoes with ranch dressing on the side. That was $7.99 plus tax. I like how everything they give you is branded including the salad bowl. The napkins and the paper bag had their logo on it. I have to say this was not a very salad. It didn't taste super fresh. The beets were very hard but then again I don't like my beets shredded into fine pieces and their grape tomatoes were cut into pieces which I don't like. I think they should peel their cucumbers. This is all preference though. And the portion was very small. The part I dislike the most was their ranch dressing. It reeked of garlic. I need Newman's or Ken's ranch dressing. I know that sounds bad that I prefer the prepackaged stuff. Overall, I find this to be a smaller, cheaper version than Chop't. I would get salads from a local deli or even a fast food restaurant. Better bang for the buck and much better tasting. read more

Always get the order wrong. They redid my order and sent me the wrong salad AGAIN. I'll never order from this place again. read more

Just Salad - Two WRONG SALADS. - Salad Near Me - New York, New York

The salad was solid, but the 5 star is because of the server - Jewel. From entering she was energetic and eager to make me the best salad possible. She gave suggestions on what to order, was knowledgeable on all the prices and just made it a fun experience. I like when the staff actually seems to enjoy their job! And for $8.50 for 5 toppings and kale its not a bad price for Greenwich village. read more

I got the Tokyo Superfood salad which has avocado, greens, edamame, almonds, and tofu in it. I'd never been to a salad bar before, but I'm definitely returning. Normally I find salads very boring and unenjoyable and I make my own dressing, but this salad was good and filling. The miso ginger dressing was good too. You can also buy a reusable bowl and get free toppings with it, so next time I go back, I'll definitely buy a reusable bowl (environmentally friendly!) and either make my own salad or try one of their super tasty combos. read more

Just Salad - Salad Near Me - New York, New York

I can pinpoint the problem of this place with one word: consistency. When I get salads at other places, such as Whole Foods or Chop't, the amount of greens that I'm going to get is already put in the plastic bowl. Here, they kind of do whatever they feel like doing. Sometimes, they put a bunch of ingredients in there and sometimes, they're really stingy. Either way, it's hard to figure out the right salad/dressing ratio when you have no idea how much salad you're actually getting. My salads have turned out either really bland or overpowering with dressing. Also, some of the people who work here don't know how to chop a salad. I have gotten this one guy twice whose blade barely touches the surface of the chopping board...not acceptable. read more

After a long day of work all I wanted was my chicken salad wrap. Aquia was super nice and chatty. I'm sure she's been working there since 10am and she was still super nice and helpful. Thank you Aquia, and I'll be back soon. Cheers !! read more

Following a pretty good review from my Hubs on this newly opened Just Salad spot, I wanted so badly to like it. Sadly, it just didn't live up to its hype. The place large, bright & clean. They've designated plenty of room for customers waiting in line as well as seating and the separate cashier's location is nice. The staff was friendly and energetic and took the time to explain to customers coming in for the first time how the whole process worked. What got me was the food itself. Sure the lettuce was crisp but the other ingredients in my Buffalo Chicken salad just seemed blah and eventually killed the lettuce. The chicken looked as though it had been tossed in buffalo sauce the day before & left. The celery, when added, caused the lettuce to get a little soggy. The pepper jack cheese lacked any sort of spice and did nothing to add to the salad. The caesar dressing didn't even taste like caesar. And the little piece of bread offered was hard and bland. I'd probably go back at some point and give these guys another try, but it won't be anytime soon. For now I'd rather take my lunch money to Cosi (right next door) or up to Chop't (in Union Square) for a quality meal. read more

Came here on a Tuesday around 12:45pm and it was packed. The line wrapped around. I remembered to get the re-usable bowl this time = WIN! I got the buffalo chicken salad today with lemon vingerette dressing. It was good - the lemon dressing definitely compliments the salad - I don't quite prefer the tortilla chips inside but overall it was a good. I can see that a lot of people are regulars here! - I will probably be back from my salad of the week xD Price range is def good for typical salads that are bought instead of home-made - some places can get expensive in comparison to what you spend if you actually made it yourself - but I guess we pay for convenience XD! read more

I have tried half of the salads here and the food is very consistent and they normally don't fail to please me. My favorite goes out to Thai Chicken Crunch! All the way! My only complaint is to the immunity bowl, or anything with Salmon involved, because the salmon has been the only material that has tasted like it had been sitting there for days to come. The service is relatively standard, however I do have a shout out to one of the ladies at the cash register who always helps my day shine a bit brighter. If I could I would give this place a 3.5/5 but since I cannot I will round up to 4/5 read more

There was a little more than just salad here, such as smoothies :P Anyways, I had the california salad, which consisted of chicken, egg whites, almonds and an avocado amongst tons of leaves. It was okkk...didn't taste as fresh as some other salad spots I've been to. read more
