    Don Quixote Salad
    Cassandra A.

    I love this salad chain. I hate that they dont have many locations near the west side of town but I will happily drive to get these salads. The Don Quixote is my all time favorite and I sub shrimp instead of chicken. It's always so flavorful and they are never stingy with the ingredients. It's always so clean in here and I like the variety of options. The staff always seem to be in a great mood which is refreshing to see. I like watching them make my salad from the glass. The salads are a little pricey but when you compare what you get, you are breaking even. They have plenty of seating options inside and options to sit outside. I ordered the Black Cherry fountain drink which has no artificial sweeteners, no high fructose corn syrup, and are made with natural flavors. I have had the caramels from the register area and they are always so good.

    So I've been here a couple times from working (doing Grubhub) and today I decided to come all the way from maricopa just to try it and wen I say it was everything I asked for i literally mean just that. The lady who made my salad gave me jus enough to fill my salad bowl and all the ingredients were fresh. Omg the best $20 I ever spent will definitely be back. Basil pesto and ranch is the best dressings mix I ever had

    This place is very good, the salad is fresh and it's good to have a quick place to eat healthy among all the cafes and restaurants around Tempe Marketplace. It's a quick and very casual place to eat, everything is decent, simple and made to order at the counter. I would recommend it as healthy alternative to fast food in the area. Thumbs up!

    First Visit At This Location First Impressions Mad Greens has been very consistent with how they do things. Very friendly staff. I love the location. Crazy Ivan with creamy ginger dressing worth it. Mexicane cola very good. Their Maine Root Beer dispenser not working. I'm so glad Mad Greens made their way all the way to Tempe Marketplace.

    Great tasting healthy food. Even the bread is good. Clean and friendly restaurant. The cashiers are very knowledgeable and give good advice. They will make your food the way you want.

    Pancho Villa plus pickled onions...soooo yummy! I need to try to duplicate this at home. My new favorite salad!
    Alia G.

    YUM! Fresh, made to order salads / bowls. Quick, Fast Food that is fresh and healthy (depending on what you opt for). I would totally be here more often if I lived in the area. Great options and you can build your own too. So get creative if you like... mind you they charge for toppings so it's not like you want to get too crazy as it does add up. I went with their Pancho Villa and was super happy with my selection. This Tempe location has a dining area with probably about 16 4-tops so you can definitely eat-in and enjoy a meal with friends or family. Casual and easy.

    We came here for lunch because of the positive reviews and are so happy we came here! I had the Cobb salad and my husband had the spicy bacon bowl. Both were delicious. Once you order, you watch your salad/wrap/bowl being prepared. Our server confirmed every item to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. I didn't want onions on my salad and so got a free exchange for another item. The portions are generous and the ingredients fresh. We were treated to the garlic and red pepper hummus with pita bread platter. What a yummy and splendid surprise!! The service was efficient and friendly!! We will be back.

    Ty Cobb Salad

    Great healthy options for lunch or dinner. They offer online ordering and delivery, and also have a rewards program. I have been to the location downtown, for lunch a few times, but have mostly visited the Tempe location for a quick dinner option, a few times a month. I have ordered grain bowls, salads, and their mac bowls, and have not been disappointed. I really like their choice of salad dressings, quite a few are vegan and gluten free. I get a few different dressings on the side for lunch salads for the week. My favorites are the Creamy Ginger, Cilantro Chili Lime, Chipotle Caesar, and their Honey Mustard. I order to go, and the orders are always complete and correct, and ready when promised. The ingredients are fresh, tasty, and they're always consistent.

    Met up with the family at Tempe Marketplace, we were early for a birthday celebration so we all wanted to grab something to eat while waiting on time to fly, so after checking out what was all there to offer I knew I was more interested in getting a salad so off to Mad Greens I went. After checking out the menu I went with the Don Quixote Salad, it had a bed of mixed greens, southwestern chicken, mango, roasted corn, avocado, jack cheese with a creamy ginger dressing. The combinations of these favors were delish. This was a great tasting salad. I like that we are starting to have more of "fast casual" salad places to choose from because not everyone wants a hamburger or pizza. If looking for a tasty fresh salad go give them a try!

    I am a HUGE Greek/Mediterranean food fan! Especially when I'm traveling for work (why I'm here in…read morePhoenix), and most food option to order aren't the healthiest, I always find this to at least be a halfway decent alternative. I ordered the chicken Medi bowl and it was so incredibly flavorful. I took the picture before I mixed everything together, but I was glad to see it did mix well. There's nothing worse than getting a bowl and trying to mix all the ingredients together, but you end up just taking giant bites of hummus with nothing else. Their portion size felt like just the right amount, with a good balance of chicken, veggies, quinoa, and a sauce to mix in. I was originally going to immediately give this place 4 stars max, because it's my biggest pet peeve when places don't give silverware with their takeout orders (I luckily had a fork from something else I ordered, but it was flimsy and not made for this bowl for sure). But after eating it, the flavors were out of this world that I did feel like it was deserving of 5 stars. We have some pretty great Mediterranean restaurants in Boise, but I think this definitely competes!

    Food is great! BUT your staff is the worst!…read more I came in today during lunch around 1pm or so. The girl behind the counter barely greeted me, just quickly wanted to take my order...all while her making faces and rolling her eyes. I had to give my order multiple times because I literally could not hear over the music she was BLASTING. Once I did receive my order and asked for additional sauces the eye rolling continued. Beyond rude! People like that make a delicious place taste disgusting. I hope you take the time to train your employee on basic guest service. If she has a hard time working with people she shouldn't be in the service industry.

So I looked up the restaurant and added it to my list. Luckily we were passing by on University recently and stopped in. So glad we did, it's delicious! We also tried that wrap featured on IG and I didn't like it as much as their traditional beef shawarma wrap. It has better flavor. I haven't had baba ghanoush in forever and this was yummy, the grilled eggplant flavor was great. It came with a pita bread, which are all made in house. This fast casual Lebanese/ Mediterranean restaurant is definitely a place I'll come back to try other items.

    I think this place went pretty viral on TikTok for the crispy shawarma? All my friends told me to…read morecheck it out so I did! We ordered from a kiosk and got a recommendation from one of the workers which was nice. You can watch them assemble your food on the line which is cool. There's lots of seating inside so it's a nice casual spot. First of all the prices here are incredible, our pita wrap was only $9, and an additional $1 to "make it viral" (crispy). The food took a really long time to come out, there was quite a few people waiting in front of us which is why I think it took so long, they also seemed to grill all the meats to order so I'm not super mad about the wait. The meat inside the wrap wasn't super flavorful, but still pretty good. All the hummus, sauce, and pickles really brought it all together. I probably wouldn't get it crispy next time since it honestly hurt the inside of my mouth, and just seemed to kind of make it greasy, it wasn't as crispy as I thought it would be, just kinda hard. All that said, it's not the best thing I've ever had but the price makes it so good. I would definitely come here again

If you're not a fan of strong flavors, I would recommend asking for lighter seasoning on some dishes and a little extra water in the soups. That balance worked well for our preferences. Unfortunately, the service did not match the quality of the food. During the hour we were there, the restaurant wasn't busy. There were only a couple of tables being served, yet our drinks were never refilled, our table wasn't bused, and our rice never arrived with our hot pot soups even after our server asked if we wanted it. It seemed to be forgotten. What really stood out was that we ended up eating dessert with a table full of dirty dishes still sitting in front of us and empty drinks that had not been refilled. I also noticed that the table next to us appeared to receive much more attentive service. Their drinks were refilled, their dishes were cleared promptly, and staff regularly checked on them to see if they needed anything. In comparison, our table received very little attention. I don't know why there was such a difference in service. It left me wondering whether we were being treated differently, though I can't say for certain. Overall, the food was excellent, but the service was disappointing and significantly affected our experience. (Server was Dhillon T.)

They serve salads, bowls, sandwiches, all-day breakfast, protein shakes, fresh juices, and other healthy, fast-casual eats for dine-in or take-away. My kind of place! This is one of those spots that I'd frequent if I lived nearby (ChopShop, want to open in Northern California?!). I stumbled upon this spot after a little self-guided tour of ASU campus on a sleepy Sunday morning (everyone must have been asleep after the big football game the day before). I'd forgotten about this spot and it was such a happy surprise to find it again and to see that they survived the pandemic and are still thriving. First visit I ordered: -Cheat Day Wrap: scrambled egg, bacon, white cheddar, smashed avocado, tomato, brown rice (I ordered without rice), and turkey or ham (I skipped these too) *DELISH on a whole wheat wrap!!! Full of flavor and super easy to eat. This hearty breakfast sando fueled my active morning of hiking "A" Mountain (Hayden Butte Preserve) the running around the the IronMan course to spectate (30,000+ steps as a spectator!). We couldn't leave town without another trip. I took my guy and we enjoyed a salad, another breakfast wrap, and: -Chicken + Prosciutto Sandwich: grilled chicken, prosciutto, fontina, arugula, fig mostarda, dijon (no dijon for us), on a house bun. If you're in the area, looking for a healthy-ish breakfast, lunch, or snack, definitely check out Original ChopShop. Note: it gets busy at peak meal hours with students and faculty. Order at the kiosks (super easy), grab a number, find a table in their cozy interior or on their large front patio, and your food will be brought to you. Have a question? Just ask - the staff were very friendly and helpful in guiding our choices. And I love that they allow modifications to most menu items! We'll be back!!!
