    I went to Salata after a long time as salad is not always my first choice. We decided to take the big bowl and salad. They made a good salad. No complaints. Tomato Soup was not worth the price and my taste palette. Everything was okay tillI saw the lady employee eating right from the serving bowl not once but twice that too without any gloves on. That's one of the most unhygienic and disgusting thing any employee can do to a restaurant. Not going back to this place.

    I like this location a lot because it's not crazy busy at lunch! The staff is very attentive and the facility is clean, I would recommend it to the ones looking for a quick but quiet lunch. It's located upstairs, above Panda Express, so just take the stairs!

    Had a great experience at this location! The ingredients were fresh and the portion was generous - easily 2 meals for me! Parking is easy as there is a huge parking lot shared with the surrounding restaurants and Costco. Will definitely come back!

    How do you say "see you later" in Vegan? "Salata!" I really love this chain. (That's what my gf said when I imprisoned her in the kitchen, close enough to the stove to make food). They have changed the game for me. (Like Tom Brady when he's 28 points down with 3 seconds left or whatever he will similarly do this Sunday). Now I'm able to eat delicious salad (and toss delicious salad) for a fairly cheap price (or free since I got these muscles) and get somewhat full off of it (and I'm not the only one that gets full, hi girls) even though it's not as large (I mean, who is, hi boys) as my beloved Salad Extravaganza down the street, which is close enough to walk to. Speaking of street and walking, hi to my sexy gf too! This is my favorite location of Salata anywhere. Yes, you have to go all the way upstairs - usually in an elevator because your gf only wears stripper heels so stairways are tough - to get to it, but once you are there it is so worth it. I'm talking about the Salata and the Stripper Heels too. Stripper Heels doll says: "I like the salad selection, lots of delicious vegetables. They don't get mad at you for sitting in the section reserved by a random religious cult." It's lovely and comfortable, nice service, with big portions and lots of fresh ingredients. It is one of the best corporate chains you will ever eat at. That goes for Salata in general, but specifically this location. Now I have to go, so I'll Salata Alligator.

    This joint is on the second story of the Costco strip mall, as far away from Costco as you can get fronting Weslayan and directly above the Panda Express. If you are coming up the disgusting stairs off the Weslayan parking lot entrance then it is on your right so you walk towards Richmond on the second story rather than walking to the left towards West Alabama & the beautiful Pizzeria Solario (that I love) down on the first floor of the complex. This location of the mega chain Salata has it all: extremely surly high school aged salad tossers in the assembly line that look bothered by you simply existing and/or asking for tomatoes; an exterior stairway that is wet at all times and in all weather conditions and smells as if three bums playfully urinated on each other while they were eating spoiled Taco Bell doritos locos tacos; and always has the dregs of baked tofu as if there is only one other half-shark, half-alligator, half-man in the Houston Metro that moseys on in occasionally to take the first most premiere portion of baked tofu every blue moon that always seems to arrive there just before I do so he/she/xe/they gets the good stuff before I get what is left. My suggestions are to invest in soaping and washing down the stairs with your co-tenants, hiring more sage and better help, and treating your next patrons like the truuuu princesses they are to wade through disgusting stair conditions to get to you when they could really easily go back downstairs to Pexpress and get some of that sweet sweet chork action going on in their mouth holes without needing to ascend a sewer of smells in the 90-100+ degree heat. How you affordin' this pricey commercial lease otherwise brah

    I love this place. They have a great tea selection. I can pile on ingredients and it's not extra. This helps make the salad filing unlike other places. The place is hard to spot. It's on the second floor on the corner but it doesn't stop it from being constantly busy! The parking is also crazy. It's a constant buzz so watch out when you're backing out. Despite it being so busy there are plenty of tables and the service is fast.

    Decided to stop in for lunch since Salata is one my favorite places to eat. I was so happy they built one in Southwest so I pulled over to give it a try. Since my friend has never tried it I swore he would love it. So I wasn't greeted when we walked in which was surprising but I didn't want to jump to conclusions. I chose to get the Salata lettuce mix the woman barely put any lettuce in the bowl so when I requested more she looked at we with disgust and added four pieces of lettuce. I counted it was only four. My rule is be nice they are making your food so I remained courteous. Then every thing I added she added light toppings and I had to ask for more. At this point her service made me not want to return to this location. The next employee was ok not cheerful so it was safe to assume this just isn't a happy team. Overall the location is great, service wasn't good, the quality was of the salad wasn't what I experienced but location was clean. I'm not sure if I'd return to this location. I felt like I wasted $20 cause it wasn't what I expected.

    White  bean soup with worms
    Frances B.

    Salata has always been my favorite spot for lunch. Today I felt a little cold so went there and order an small salad and a "white bean" soup. Surprisingly my soup came with a peculiar ingredient .. worms! I'll never come back to this place. If you promote fresh food then serve fresh food! I hope I don't feel sick later today or tomorrow if not, we are going to have a serious conversation.

    Came in to eat on a Saturday night around 8PM. They take walk ins, but we made reservations and I…read moream so glad we did. Upon arriving, every table was taken except our table w a reserved sign on it. The restaurant was bustling, but I could still hear my husband over the music and noise. The menu is huge!!! I didn't know where to start. But our server, Vanessa, helped us make a few choices. We started off w bánh xèo tostadas, bánh béo, & carpaccio. Then we had calamari and their steak special. I asked for a side of papaya slaw for some veggies. My favorite dish of the night was the carpaccio. So many flavors perfectly melded together. Loved the crunch of the fried onions and peanuts. 10/10 dish, in my opinion. Authentic banh xèo usually has an airier, crisp crepe, but theirs was more crunchy - great for their tostada take. Very flavorful. Each piece had one shrimp, but plenty of pork belly bites. The nuoc mam drizzled on it was tasty. Fried calamari - this is a big dish for, I believe, $'19. I prefer the dipping sauce on the side so that the batter doesn't get soggy. This did happen here, but it didn't stop us from finishing every last bite. The green sauce was good, not the usual dipping sauce for fried calamari. Steak special - they have another steak dish on their menu, but this one was pepper crusted w smashed potatoes. The potatoes were super crispy and flavorful and the steak was perfectly cooked - a beautiful pink medium rare. The portion was huge and justified the $39 price point. The staple steak dish came with a papaya slaw and I had to have it. It was bright and limey - I can see why they serve it with their steak. Bánh beo - my least favorite of the night. A bit thicker than I like. Still good, but there were a lot of other great dishes that I could easily pass on this one. Try their hibiscus artichoke tea.

We got there 15 minutes before to make sure we could find parking. They have a small lot but all the spaces were taken despite being before 6 pm on a weekday. And a few spots had noticeable broken glass so be careful. We fortunately found street parking close by; double checked the signs because I ain't getting towed for nothing. Then I double checked inside with staff to make sure where I parked was ok. On to the food: we got several happy hour appetizer items: soy garlic wings, Brussels sprouts, bao bun, roasted oysters. All was good but not amazing. I then ordered the pho tai chinh for myself - I was quite impressed with the portions and the price! Wifey got the lemongrass pork banh mi - good but not amazing. Overall I would say the food taste and portions were good, but note this is elevated Asian cuisine, so it'll run you $20-$30 minimum. Now the service - definitely super friendly staff. It was our first time there so maybe they brought out the extra friendliness. Even the chef came out and greeted us to make sure we liked the food. Waitress was very kind and checked on our table a LOT. Almost too much. Overall a good experience, yummy food, not a fan of the parking (a common problem in the Heights), and expensive for Asian food but that's expected. Enjoy!

The tubs of ice filled with cold drinks all around as you approach the counter was casual and fun. And the staff was welcoming and friendly. The menu had so much variety, without being overwhelming.

The pork was seasoned well and had good flavor from the marinade. The cilantro, pickled onions, jalapeno, all were so fresh and vibrant! And I was able to get homemade chips and fresh strawberries as my side - such a refreshing bite the strawberries after a rich, porky, spicy bite from the sandwich. Can't say enough good! Loved this place and would go back in a heartbeat!

    A big part of the decades long success at Local Foods has been their commitment to consistency…read more Their casual setting with excellent service is one thing, but quality executed food that is simple and seasonal will always go a long way. Before their recent expansions to Austin, it all began here in Rice Village exactly 15 years ago. The vibes are contemporary and casual, with the kind of space that fits for just about any scenario. Whether it's a solo meal, a lunch date, or a group led affair, the experience is almost always an excellent one. Start by ordering at the counter and find a seat where the food will brought directly to the table. So much of their variety caters to all sorts of dietary restrictions from vegan to gluten free to nut free. Their spicy crispy brussels sprouts ($10) are a nice starter, as is the squash "onion" rings ($12). The local power bowl ($16) is a classic and I've always enjoyed the brown rice and quinoa combo. Their chicken "posolé" is solid, and I love the large hominy bits along with the clear but green tint of a broth. The chicken shawarma bowl ($20) is an interesting mix that includes pickled beets and strawberries, along with their market cheddar burger ($17) and fabulous twice cooked fries. The carrot cupcake is strangely addicting, and I think their gluten free brownie is a bit of a sleeper. Some of their items didn't jive with me previously, such as an underwhelming cashew queso ($9), a semi-laughable Vietnamese steak bowl ($22), and their semi-gringo version of a banh mi ($15). It's not that these items are bad per se, but they definitely don't live up to the same standard that I feel their other dishes do best. Where they hit the biggest home run is their customer service. Everyone working behind the counter does their best to deliver and they almost always do by staying on top of refills, cleanups, and customer greets. I've always enjoyed my experiences here and look forward to every visit.
