I've lived near this place for some time and finally decided to try it. The interior is pretty bare, and seems designed to encourage "to go" orders, although it appears quite clean and organized. The staff was friendly and my meal was prepared fairly quickly. I ordered a Thai It Up! wrap, and the flavor profile was exceptional. I ordered it with a 'regular' amount of peanut sauce, but will order 'extra' sauce next time. Most of their dishes are very calorie-friendly, and the meal was filling yet light. It's a nice find. read more

Great food and ambience. Staff is welcoming and very friendly. First time here and staff member, Mark helped me out with my order and was helpful in deciding what to order. read more

I've only ordered Simply Salad through DoorDash. Great selection of lettuce, toppings, protein, and dressing. Their garbanzo-based hummus and pita chips are good, too. read more

Best "Build your own" option I've seen in a while. Great for those who work from home and want a filling healthy meal quickly. I ordered delivery and it came very quickly. Grilled chicken was juicy and not dry. Would order again. read more

I got the buffalo chicken wrap and let me tell you it was one of the best wraps I've had. The buffalo drizzle is what put it over the edge! Quick and easy service as well so I will be back! read more

I love this place! Their salads are so nutritious and delicious, and they have a wide variety of preset salad options. In my opinion, they are very generous with their portions, and the salads are very filling. Also, this is one of the only restaurants for which I downloaded their own app! The app is super easy to use, the staff makes your mobile order very quickly, and there are no annoying functions or notifications. read more

Huge portions for a decent price. Salad was good and the pickup order ready on time, but the ranch dressing was oddly spicy.

They serve up really healthy, tasty salads and wraps, and I love their freshly made salad dressings ..they are so amazing one of the best Caesar salad wraps I've had. Every time I've been they've had my online order ready for pick up by the time I got there and/or within five minutes ...very clean place with limited outdoor/indoor seating for eating so I imagine that most people order to go very pleasant, clean environment and very friendly, helpful staff. read more

[ December, 2024 ] Excellent salad that come in large portions. This is a nice spot that you'll definitely appreciate. read more

Been hearing good things about this place. I was at one of the neighboring businesses when I decided to finally give it a try. As it was lunch time, I can imagine they were busy with online orders as there were hardly any customers inside and nobody in line. The one employee towards the front of where the line would start told me she would be with me and I could see she was stressed. She finally asked somebody to take my order. My order was taken by a very friendly employee. I love the "make-your-own bowl" concept which can also be made into a wrap. For one flat rate, you can have your greens, 5 ingredients, and then a dressing. There's an upcharge for extra items and premium items such as meat. They have benches for waiting on your order but no tables for eating (at least I did not notice any inside). They do have a few tables outside which may be shared with the neighboring businesses such as Starbucks, Movita, and Jimmy Johns. The lot tends to get busy at times because of a drive-through. We desperately need one of these places around DTLB! read more

The salad ingredients were not fresh, I expected a lot more than what I paid for. The workers were very unfriendly and rude. Very half asses service and the customer service was nonexistent. I didn't even get a fork or where I could find them or a bag. Would not be back. read more

Walked in with no greeting at all. We were the only customers in the store and 3 employees just continued with what they were doing with no effort to greet us. Walked right out! No wonder all the other stores are booming and this particular store has 0 customers! read more

Simply Salad - Salad Near Me - Long Beach, California

Was in line to order around 7:45pm today but left due to seeing an employee have 1 glove on while sweeping and then she proceeded to put the other glove and went on to making salads. So unsanitary to build a salad with the glove you had on to sweep. read more

I really love this place. I come everyday but not a day goes by they messed up my order. I really try to tell myself everyday they won't messed up and they always fail me. Ahhh. I order a Cesar salad such a simple salad and they forgot the croutons and we order a Cobb salad and it only had 4 small pieces of chicken. read more

Simply Salad - Cesar salad - Salad Near Me - Long Beach, California

I came. I saw. I lettuce'd. Stepping into Simply Salad in Long Beach was like entering a leafy green paradise. The doors parted like the gates of Valhalla, and I was met with the intoxicating aroma of freshly chopped romaine and destiny. The staff? Absolute SALAD WIZARDS. One glance at me and they knew -- they knew -- I was a Spicy Southwest Bowl kind of soul. I asked for recommendations, and they delivered with the confidence of seasoned chefs and the warmth of lifelong friends. The precision with which they assembled my bowl... dare I say, Michelangelo couldn't sculpt a more perfect piece of art. The vibes? Immaculate. Uplifting music, gleaming counters, and a spiritual sense of satisfaction that filled my stomach and my soul. I came in hungry. I left reborn. I'd give it 6 stars if Yelp would let me. Do yourself a favor. Go. Eat. Ascend. read more

When they say Simply Salad there's nothing simple about the flavors. Fresh ingredients, house made dressings, and build your salad or wrap options. Plenty of signature options so you don't have to spend the time thinking about how to the make the perfect salad. I ordered The Buff which is a buffalo chicken salad wrap with jalapeños for a spicy kick. I went with light dressing and it was delicious, but I think most folks would prefer medium dressing. It weighed at least a pound and I couldn't finish it. A great healthy and satisfying option that was fast and friendly with their service. Definitely not your grandma's salad bar. read more

Simply Salad - The Buff wrap or what's left of it - Salad Near Me - Long Beach, California

i was so happy when this joint opened. just salads? all the time? night or day? DON'T miss me with that. the fact that when i'm hungry at 9p and my choice is mcdonalds, taco bell, or A FRESH SALAD? i'm here for this. now i'm not so sure, because my uber eats account can T E S T I F Y to the fact that i'm here not only multiple times a month, but multiple times a week. it's killing my wallet. but the salads are so damn good, completely customizable, everything is MIXED UP PROPERLY so can virtually guarantee everything in your salad will be on every single bite off your fork. the salads are also huge. the only reason i'm not here daily is because i order for dinner and lunch the next day is also handled. do that for $16 somewhere else, i dare you. i've only walked in once, before i knew they were on ubereats, so i can't speak to ambiance or whatever, and i don't care. fresh ingredients, delivered fast, custom made, with roughly a thousand options for toppings and dressings? i'm all in. literally the only complaint i have is that only once in two dozen times i've added in special instructions to include a fork, have they done so. they nail all other customizations, but there's a real blind spot on the fork situation. guys! my son has stolen all my forks! i have like four in the house and they're always dirty! when i request a fork, i really need it! oh, i guess, another negative; their bags seem to be made out of kleenex. more than three times the bag has fallen apart and resulted in a spill of the salad on the way to the kitchen. it's okay, i observe 5 second rule, but maybe call trader joe's paper bag distributor? i dunno. regardless, though, the salads are excellent. fresh ingredients. love this restaurant. editing to add: my son is starting a food-based business and needed space in the fridge today for today's cooking. he came across last night's simply salad and asked me if he could toss it. i nearly wrote him out of the will - NO. THAT'S MY LUNCH TODAY, YOU MANIAC. TOUCH IT AND YOU'LL BE LIVING IN YOUR CAR BY TOMORROW. read more

This place is amazing! I have just started my health journey and this is where I decided to start. The customer service is great and they always have a smile even when it gets busy. The food is so fresh and delicious. I use there app for pick up orders and points. Definitely try this place out. The meat is from a cold bar so be aware of that. Great prices as well. read more

Listen...I love salads. I definitely do not like an over-dressed salad but damn YALL RATIONING AROUND HERE?! No okay it's not that serious but I couldn't tell if my salad had dressing on it or not. Other than that, the ingredients tasted great and fresh. The salad was massive and I know I would've gotten full if I had finished it. Just wish there was more dressing on it. I ordered it for lunch and was in a hurry to get back to work. And I finally sat down after intensely thinking about how bomb this was gonna be cuz you really can't mess up a Cobb salad but here we are. 3 starts cuz I'm hangry and still have 5 more hours in my shift. But would def give 4 stars for the quality of the ingredients. The homemade soup was delicious though :) I'll be returning but will definitely be asking for more dressing read more

I visit when I'm in the area but I'm not making a special trip to get their salads. Taste: 5 stars, love the toping options Wait: 2 stars, they are all busy filling orders but if you walk in, you will wait 10 minutes for them to get to yours. They don't make it as you walk across the line (ie they are not Chipotle) Price: 4 stars, high but worth the value given toppings and size. Customer Service: 3.5 - 4 stars, Been here a few times, they are busy (people in and out) but friendly enough. Nothing overtly rude or dismissive, but also nothing that gives you the warm fuzzies if you know what I mean. Atmosphere: 2 star, clean but clearly not an environment that invites ypu to sit and enjoy your salad. Maybe 4 stools, otherwise people get their salad to go. read more

Clean and very minimalist concept. Service was great for my first time here. I do recommend the cilantro lime vinaigrette with the Cobb salad. Food is very very fresh and prepared in front of you. read more

I went back to Simply Salad tonight and this time actually went to the store vs. ordering. It was a different experience, not wildly different though. I got the same exact salad as before. The amount of chicken was probably 10 times what I had gotten the first time. The other toppings were skimpy, I don't even think I had 3 peanuts. There were more wontons, but they really weren't great, more like oily rice paper instead of actual wontons. I will say, I enjoyed the salad. The Thai peanut dressing is SO good. I will go back just to have this dressing and I suppose this salad as a whole. If you're wondering yes, there's still a stupid little quarter of a pita that makes no sense. read more

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Simply Salad and everything they stand for. I first tried the Cerritos location and then tried this place and have ordered Grubhub from this place about 3 times now. Every time on my Grubhub order, I write that I am allergic to blue cheese and can not have any cheese on my salads, but every time I always get cheese in my salad bowl and I can't eat it. It's unfortunate, but their wraps and salads have been very good and consistent. I've resorted to ordering their salads without cheese and hopefully there is some turn around with their training. My favorite is the El Paso, The Cue, and the Seared Shogun. read more

Salads are fresh, build your own or premade are good size portions. You can add to any of the premade but be ware it can add up fast. The app is easy to use and my order has always been ready by the time I get there. Long Beach is slightly easier pick up experience as long as yo take Atherton to Clark to get back to PCH. The service is always friendly, helpful and efficient. Ambiance ia that of a take out focused store. Simple seating and just set up for purpose. If you like salads and veggies it is a good place, slightly spendy but we need them to stay around and so it's worth it. The app has rewards too. Basically a pack and go soup plantation!! read more

I have been to this location many many times and the service is always amazing. I am greeted at the door with welcoming hellos from all the workers, and the taste of my food is always amazing. Best salads I tell you!!! Not to mention this one particular worker I always see when I go in tall african-American boy, nice smile I believe his name is Mark. I always see him when I go in and he is so friendly and hardworking, makes me want to come back everytime whenever he makes my salads. read more

This is my first time at this location but, second time trying Simply Salad ! I LOVED my experience both times. The BYO salmon wrap I created was DELICIOUS ! The service was amazing because, every worker was so kind to my mom and I. The ambiance was great because, their playlist was FANTASTIC ! I plan to come back soon ! read more

Simply Salad - You gotta be kidding me. I ordered a wrap not salad - Salad Near Me - Long Beach, California

I'm not much of a review guy. I had to leave a review of this place because it's truly fantastic. I order from Simply Salad probably 3 times a week. The salads are always fresh, the ingredients are top notch, and the service is great. I'm here often enough that they know my order when I walk in - what can I say - I'm a creature of habit. I used to frequent the Downtown LA store often when it first opened. The owners were always friendly. To say I was stoked when they opened in LB was an understatement. I feel like the staff from the top down are really great. That's really what makes a difference. I can make a salad at home. But why, when I can go to Simply Salad. read more

I was going to eat at this place but instead I lost my appetite. I witnessed so many mice and rats crawling all over the benches and tables outside. When I called Simply Salad to let them know what I had seen they were very nonchalant about the whole thing. Needless to say I will not be eating there anymore. read more

When I worked in this area, Simply Salad was a great healthy and fresh lunch option. Soups are also good!

Needs immediate attention. Utterly disgusting and highly unsanitary! Who,what, when where, how & why?! Noticed after picking up my order and lost my appetite as well as the money I paid. read more

We are back at it! I took a break, but I'm back. Love that their portion size is back to normal! Typically, do build your own! It was delicious. Customer service was great! Side note: Get extra ranch it's the best I have tested! Love a good salad spot! read more

The salads are delicious and fresh a 10 out of 10. Fast and friendly service also very clean inside to enjoy your meal.

Heatwave equals salad, right? I was ready to dip my toe back in the water but now they've removed the option of "special instructions" where I would say chop my salad small please. Which is one of best things of a salad in my opinion. That and roasted peanuts! But that special instruction option is now gone from the SS app and online delivery apps. What's up?!? read more
