Salata

This is one of my favorite places in all of San Antonio. Their soups, both poblano and tomato are…read moreso good. Almost everyone who comes here tells you about their poblano soup. We've never had bad service, a long wait, or any issues with our food every time we've come. The orchard sandwich was new for me this time and once again, 10/10. I loved the combination of the turkey with the crisp apples and the slight sweetness of the maple dressing. I love that they give you the option to change the bread types, I switched mine and I feel like it made it even better because that sandwich was packed and every flavor stood out instead of being majority bread. The pasta salad was also really good, my daughter ended up devouring it which shocked us because tomato soup is her favorite. If you're looking for a good lunch spot that's worth every penny, this is the place. Can't wait to go back next month.

The only reason for not coming back is the distance from my home and the awful 1604 and 10 traffic during all that construction. Today, I went with my wife and one of her friends who was visiting from Chicago on our way home from birding out at Guadalupe River State Park. I don't remember the first time well enough to comment on any changes. I had a hard time choosing a salad. Every single one of them sound fantastic. I finally went with the Mediterranean. All I can say is that it was a wonderful salad. The awesome young lady who prepared it for me used tongs to mix the Hoo Hah out of it. Not only was itt was super fresh, and but I could taste every one of the many ingredients in every bite. It also came in a HUGE bowl. It was what I call a "man salad". I was actually full when it was finished. The only downside of the meal was actually a very positive situation in my opinion. I thought my Sprite Zero tasted funny. My wife disagreed. Either way, I couldn't drink it. I asked a manager if I could get a new cup and explained the situation. She got a little cup and had one of her guys taste it. He agreed with me. Now, why is this a positive situation? That young man immediately got to work cleaning the nozzle in case there was anything in it that was tainting the soda. I have been in similar situations where they just give me a new cup and go right to work as if they didn't care. In this case, the manager and her worker scored major loyalty points! I am bringing my group back the first chance I get.

I'm a spicy chick, so he mixed up a concoction of sriracha aioli and spicy ginger. My bowl was packed with yumminess. I could have used a plate to mix up all the goodies.

The best salad bar in San Antonio. They have so many different fresh ingredients to choose from you get to make a custom salad to your taste every time. A nice feature is they have the calorie count on the salad bar so you can see what the calories are for each ingredient and it comes in handy when it's time to pick the salad dressing as you can save yourself a lot of calories by going with a salad dressing with fewer calories. They also have a good selection of protein to add to your salad, it does cost a little more, but it rounds out the salad very nicely. I tried to go a little earlier to help avoid some of the lunch crowd. read more

Salata is my go-to spot for a quick, healthier meal! The customer service is always fast and friendly, making it perfect for a lunch break or a grab-and-go dinner. I love how many options there are to customize your salad, from fresh veggies and proteins to all kinds of dressings and toppings. Everything always tastes fresh and well-prepared. Plus, it's way more reasonably priced than Sweetgreen for the same (or better!) quality. Definitely a favorite for anyone who likes variety and value! read more

It's definitely the deli bahn mi that keeps me coming back regularly as well as the staff--they really are artists of their craft. If you know exactly what you want they'll give you that and if you're undecided or new, they have great recommendations that really do provide a well balanced bite. Every time for me, even when I'm not grabbing a deli bahn mi or ordering for others, has been a perfect sandwich. They have online ordering, phone in ordering, and you can also order there in person. The line gets long during the rush so if you're limited on time, I advise ordering ahead. Thundercloud from what I understand is originally an Austin chain. They serve soup peddler soups (also an Austin staple) and even offer cookies and smoothies which I also enjoy. About a week ago I got my girlfriend a cookie from Paris baguette and she later commented that she STILL preferred thunder clouds chocolate chip cookie over the bakeries (says a lot for a sandwich shop cookie to trump a bakery tbh). You can choose from white or wheat bread & I really enjoy how they offer two sizes of a sandwich along with plenty of options for meat and veggies. It keeps the possibilities endless. Like I mentioned earlier my go to is a large deli bahn mi on white bread with sriracha mayo add salami and salt and pepper. (I've found that the manager's special, the deli bahn mi is not available at all locations, so I'm thankful to always find it at this one). My girlfriend usually grabs the Austin club on white bread with honey mustard and sprouts and both keep us coming back ultra satisfied and ready for another round. I've also enjoyed their frito pie, Big Paul, and their meatball sub. The drink and chip selection is also fire, I especially enjoy their canned organic lemonade.
