    I miss salad places. You know, places where the salad is the focus? Simply Salad is just that. Nice fresh ingredients. Clean eating and a clean environment. Nice service. Decent prices. Easy parking. Your belly will thank you.

    Lunch!

    First of all, I love the app! It is so easy to use, my order is always accurate & on time! I love how much salad they pack into the bowl. The ingredients are so fresh and chopped just right so you get almost every ingredient in one bite! This place hits the spot! Parking is a bit tricky yet I always seem to find a spot.

    Thai It Up (Salad) w/ salmon and Thai peanut dressing
    Jenny W.

    I've tried Simply Salad three times in the last week and I'm officially hooked. I love how easy it is to order online or through their app and my salad is always ready right on time for pickup. So far, I've tried the Thai It Up Salad with salmon (Thai peanut sauce) and the Chinatown Salad with grilled chicken twice (Far East and Asian soy mix). Both came with a generous amount of protein that actually keeps you full. I always get the dressing on the side so I can control how much I use without oversaturating the salad. Everything was super fresh with no wilted or soggy pieces and my favorite part is the added crunch and texture from the crispy wontons. Five stars for my new go to salad spot in Long Beach. I can't wait to go back and eat my way through the menu.

    El Jefe (Salad)
    Rachael H.

    This is my first time coming here and let me tell you... I will be back. Walking in Zumir and Simone greeted me with so much enthusiasm, u had to get something. Devon had the place sparkling. I'm so excited to try my El Jefe salad. These group of young people can sell me anything at this point. 10/10. I'll be back!

    Ceaser salad with lemon juice and Cesar dressing
    Zabrina W.

    I ordered from delivery on door dash. I opted for the Cesar salad with lemon juice and Cesar dressing. The food was delivered on time and seemed pretty fresh. The salad was large for the price point. Overall it was good but nothing special to me. I would order maybe again but it would not be my first choice. The salad was decent but just average. It's worth giving it a try as everyone has different taste buds but it didn't really give me inspiration to put this place on my rotation. Again I can not comment on service or ambiance because I did not physically go to the restaurant.

    Good: very fresh, tasty and healthy. Even the basic Caesar salad tasted much better than some restaurant I've been too. The buff salad definitely had the buffalo chicken kick to it. service: cashier was very friendly and knowledgeable of the food menu. Ambiance: simple, basic and cute. Doesn't have much places to sit and eat your food though. I believe this place is more of a to go place.

    Get Your Greek On (Salad)
    Lang B.

    After the gym , I originally wanted CAVA but dreaded their super long line and not best service so gave this spot a try. I do not regret coming here instead ! Plenty of parking and inside very spacious with lovely plant paintings on the walls. No wait , so I ordered right away. The staff that took my orders was very friendly and helpful with recommendations . I got the Get your Greek on salad . I couldn't decide if I wanted Mediterranean ranch or balsamic vinaigrette for my dressing and asked the server if I can do half on the side. She was able to accommodate that for me. I was so pleased with my 1st visit I went back in 2 days and ordered the Buff salad (no carrots) The portion size was very generous and filling! Both of the ones I order were very delicious in their own way with completely different tastes. The meats in both flavorful and juicy , if I had to pick a favorite I would pick the Buff since it has a kick of spice from the Buffalo sauce and jalapeno. They toss and mix the salads very well. Greens were fresh and crisp. 100% going back !

    Very clean environment

    Cesar wrap
    Adrianna V.

    I ordered the grilked Chicken Cesar wrap. I did add sunflower seeds. The dressing is so addictive. The croutons I found were a big too large for a wrap. Next time I may sub the croutons for something else but there are so many choices and options. This is definitely a great place to pick up lunch. I like ordering online. You can pick up or eat there. Its near a busy center. This is one of my go to places for lunch.

    Excessive ginger
    Tanya P.

    I wish I could give them a better rating but at this point 2 is feeling a little generous. Yesterday I ordered the Miso Hungry salad. It comes with pickled ginger. When I tell you there was enough ginger on here to choke a horse you. I love ginger. This was garbage. I have photos. What you are seeing is all the ginger I could pick out of my 1 salad. That is obviously inedible and gross. Additionally the salad is meant to come with avocado, I got one measly piece in the whole salad. So I basically paid for a bowl of ginger. When I called to notify the manager I was told they would gladly make the salad again for me. But do I really want to give them another chance? I can't say I am willing to entrust this establishment with my money or tastebuds any longer, which is awful because decent salads are hard to come by. Besides yesterday's bad experience I've ordered 2-4 times a month now for several months so this review isn't based on one bad experience, but cumulative. The main issue is the lack of consistency. Some days your salad is minced, other times barely chopped and you have huge chunks of lettuce. Sometimes you get lots of avocado, sometimes almost none. Sometimes your salad has more edamame than the last one, like so much that it's almost all you taste. If you order online and they are out of an item then don't cancel and refund you, no they send a substitute without asking you if that's acceptable! I ordered roasted red pepper Gouda soup but got broccoli cheese, these are not just things you can swap. I'd rather they cancel and refund the item you wanted than try to decide for me what I would find acceptable replacement. Photos of the insane amount of ginger as proof. Btw, that is less than half the ginger I pulled out of that disgusting meal. I chucked it before I thought to photograph it but you can see some of the massive unchopped mass of ginger in the photo of the whole salad. It was truly one of the worst food experiences I've had. Unfortunately I do not recommend this place as it is currently ran. The food can be good, but usually it's not and the fact that it's so all over the place makes it difficult to want to spend my money there. Bummed all around.

We were warmly greeted by our server, Ammara who was attentive throughout our meal. The space has a modern and warm vibe, and the food is incredible. For drinks, we ordered the Thai Tea and Thai coffee. The coffee was great. I would have liked the tea to be stronger, though it had great flavor. We began with the Baan Yaang appetizer. It has one skewer each of filet, chicken, and pork accompanied by 3 sauces and a garnish. The filet is marinated and was absolutely delicious on its own. The peanut sauce for the chicken was tasty. I preferred the sweeter sauce for the pork. It also came with a diced cucumber/red onion garnish, which I enjoyed on its own. For our main course, we chose Crab with Thai Chili and Basil along with Owl Fried Rice. Both were so satisfying. Although we were both pretty full, we finished our meal off with the Mango Sticky Rice. They put a special touch on it, decorating the plate with "Happy Mother's Day!" We will definitely be back.

I had definite favorites when I dinner-ed here - both of which were starters. The sea bass larb ($21) was a refreshing way to start the meal. The Chilean sea bass is served ceviche style with fresh lime juice, fish sauce, cilantro, green + red onions with rice paper crisps. There wasn't anything groundbreaking about this dish, but it was a very solid ceviche. We also tried the kao tuna na tung ($13) which was a first for me. Ground pork, shrimp, and aromatic spices are simmered in coconut milk and paired with shrimp cracker wafers. It's surprisingly light, but flavorful. For proteins, we shared a sausage platter (a little dry), pork belly ($16), and the crying tiger ($28). The one misgiving I have is the fact that all 3 are served with the same sauces which ultimately keep them tasting pretty similar. I think The Second Owl is a great place to take out of town guests or if you're entertaining a nice dinner. The menu offers classic Thai dishes alongside less common offerings which keeps the menu exciting.

The place feels more like a casual deli spot -- you order at the counter and there are a few tables if you want to sit and eat. The space looked clean and simple, nothing fancy but comfortable enough. The employee working there was very friendly. He came out from the back, answered my questions, and recommended the chicken pesto panini, saying it's their most popular item. I also added a Caesar salad for $2.99, which I thought was a fair price, and decided to try the bread pudding as well. The panini itself was pretty good. The bread was nicely toasted, the cheese was melted well, and the pesto had good flavor. The only downside for me was the chicken -- it seemed like it might have been boiled and then mixed with pesto. It was a bit tougher than I would have liked. The Caesar salad was decent for the price. Unfortunately, the bread pudding didn't work for me. It was very dense and almost brick-like. Overall, the value is there and the staff was very nice. For me personally, the food felt a bit average. I tend to prefer paying a little more for higher quality rather than saving a few dollars on something that doesn't quite hit the mark. Because of that, I probably wouldn't go back, but others might appreciate the price point and friendly service. Food 3 stars. Staff 5 average 4
