So I'm not sure why the app and the store are never in sync. I usually get the alert my order is complete and it never is. There have been missing items in my salads before and I'd have to go to the app to complain. I saw they did wraps now and decided to give it a try. DO NOT DO IT. Sweetgreen please explain why the wrap is so thin it's see through and the employees do NOT know how to fold it because the bottoms are just falling apart. I uploaded a pict read more

My go to quick dinner! Always consistent with portion and flavor. It's also at such a convenient location

This review is solely based off the ripple fries only. Like anyone else in this city, I've heard the hype surrounding the sweet green ripple fries. It is advertised as being a healthier version of the classic French fries without compromising the taste. I thought that the fries were just okay. It lacks crunch, possibly due to it being air fried instead. The redeeming factor is the sauces. It doesn't do much to change the fries' texture but does improve the taste. I chose both the pickle ketchup and the garlic aioli, with my favorite being the garlic aioli. As for service, I had ordered for pickup through the app and the order was ready almost right away. There is also ample seating in the restaurant. read more

Love Sweetgreen and the folks that work there. Always a pleasure and good is always top notch.

Generous portions! I ordered the crispy rice bowl and it was very filling! Lots of different ingredients in one bowl! You have protein, grains, and different types of greens in one bowl! Very healthy and fresh! So that's a plus! The employees were really attentive and fast! Dine in area was clean with cute, modern furniture. There also free fountain water for you to grab. read more

Sweet green is my go to spot for salad and when the LIC location opened up I was ecstatic, a long with some of my other colleagues. They are always on point with the food and if you happen to order in advance like I typically do you will not be disappointed to find your order waiting for you. However today I happen to come in and order while there and was helped by Amanda, she was attentive and got me what I needed all while being pleasant and got out the door timely. Wasn't my first time and will not be my last read more

Been getting Sweetgreen salad bowls since coming back from Covid and have never gotten a wilted or soggy leaf, or skimpy portion. Beautiful fresh, clean, generous meals with yummy additions like well-made proteins, seasoned roasted veggies, ancient grains, crispy chips or seeds. This place makes the salads you wish you had time to make for yourself. A little pricey but worth every forkful. Order online for quick pickup and the occasional perk. Also love the hibiscus tea (sold in bottles) a great, not too sweet, go-to beverage. read more

Dang, not sure why the reviews are low here. I ordered on a Monday evening. It was not crowded, there was nice seating both inside and outside. Service was very nice, and my salad of guacamole greens was really good. read more

LIC's hottest new club is...Sweetgreen. Yep, the second this place opened, it was lines out the door. They're obviously still getting their stuff together, but the guacamole greens salad that I got was definitely smaller than I remember, and the flavor was a little off. I'll probably give them another shot soon anyway, especially if they keep inundating me with $5 off coupons. I am only human. They also have a nice outdoor seating area. read more

Sweetgreen has finally arrived! How exciting! This place is still new, so it's going to be a hit or miss. The employees are friendly and the service is quick. I ended up getting the harvest bowl, and it was good. Will definitely come back! read more

Sweetgreen is the best choice for salad in this area. Their hearty and filling servings of salad put Panera to shame. The service is friendly and fast. The seating is minimal though, I would call the ambiance as fast food- type seating with exceptionally healthy fare. This is definitely your go-to take-out salad spot. Personally, I go with the super green goddess salad! read more

I get what all the hype is about, at least when I ordered here a few weeks ago. It's clean, simple, straightforward, and I'm hearing consistent. Admittedly, this if the first time I ordered the steak bowl. It was great, blue cheese crumble, steak pieces, greens were good and ofc the bread. All in all, I got it with the green goddess dressing, it was a delight. I also enjoyed that it was a large meal, I ended up splitting it into two mainly because I wasn't that hungry the first go. I am reading that the portions can vary, which I don't like to hear, so hopefully they stay consistent with this going forward. Price- It's pricey! I almost spent $20 for one bowl. Personally for me that is high, I like hole in the wall joints, but I could see how this is an easy go to meal for people on the go. Ambience- easy, clean, simple set up. Not overwhelming. read more

!! Under-cooked Poultry ALERT !! Undercooked Chicken - I usually don't go on Fridays, I go earlier in the week. Today I had undercooked chicken littered all in my Buffalo Chicken Bowl. I've never had issues here earlier in the week but for some reason on a Friday food prep must've been rushed. Chicken was pink and cold. Never enough staff working the front counter. They need to do a better job re-purposing the staff when the line gets long. For paying $15-$20 for a lunch bowl, you would expect to have good food quality and express service. I won't be returning to this place for awhile... read more

I have been going to sweet green for so long and was very excited for this location near my home but I have been so disappointed with the service and quality of food here. They are not very nice at this location and like everyone else has said the quality and quantity of salads that you get is insufficient! You will be very disappointed and still hungry if you come here! I've tried both mobile orders and ordering in person and each time i get the same results. Perhaps now that sweet green is public and they want to give their shareholders dividends instead of keeping their loyal customers happy is what I see happening! read more

The food is so fresh and delicious, but the price is super expensive so this can't be an every day lunch. I got the blackened chicken and bbq squash plate but substituted avocado for the chicken and added goat cheese. It came to over $18. If I had to pick between this or just salad, I'd probably pick just salad. read more

Stingiest portions I've ever seen from a Sweetgreen. I used to go to the Bryant Park Sweetgreen for lunch pre-pandemic, so I know what an appropriate portion should look and feel like. The salad bowls at LIC sweetgreen remind me of the bags of Lays chips where more than half the bag is filled with air. They're big and the packaging looks nice, but you're sorely disappointed when you pick it up and notice just how light it is, and how much space there is inside for everything to move around. I showed my friends just how tiny the portions were, and they laughed and responded with a photo of the huge portions that they get at their local sweetgreen in Brooklyn. Comparison photos attached for reference. read more

Sweetgreen is sweetgreen. No complaints about the food. MAJOR issues with portion. This is my bowl and it's literally half empty. $16.64 for that? This isn't right. Check other reviews. Seems to be a thing here. The ones in Manhattan are way more generous and appropriate. read more

After a heart health scare yesterday, about an hour after clocking out from work, I've decided that my body needs a reset. Today is day 1 of 90 of my meatless journey toward better days. Yep-no meat in my mouth! So grateful for sweetgreen. I had no idea what my last meal of day 1 would be and at 940PM tonight, they were still open. I decided on a really big salad with kale, mixed greens, sweet potato slices, red cabbage, chick peas and portobello mushrooms. sweetgreen has shown me that I really don't like portobellos. The Lime Green Goddess dressing was divine. Reasonable prices too. read more

I absolutely love Sweetgreen and have been hoping and praying that one would come to LIC. Luckily, my dreams came true, and this location opened a few months ago. I have only been a few times, but the experience has been fine. I always order the same custom salad, so it's easy to compare between locations. I've ordered a lot on the app, and the salad is always ready before or at the promised time. In agreement with other reviews, I will say that the portions here are on the smaller side, but the quality of the food remains constant between this location and the one I go to near work. Despite the deficiencies, I'm glad to have Sweetgreen in the neighborhood, and will continue to order from this location in the future. read more

I ordered a bbq salmon bowl through Uber eats and was shocked to open my bowl to find nothing but my dressings, rice, and a cup of sweet potatoes. No slaw, and most certainly no salmon. A complete waste of $18 and it left me without dinner for the night. read more

I ordered via doordash, we got the caesar kale salad and fish taco salad. The food arrived on time and packaged well. The caesar kale salad came with a caesar dressing on the side; the flavor was not as flavorful as a regular caesar dressing but I think it is because it is on the healthier side. The fish taco salad was really healthy as well. At first the salads did not look like it would filling but it was. I think there was more salad than other ingredients though (i.e. there wasn't that much chicken, cheese, etc.) Overall the salads were pretty healthy but just lacking flavor. Salads are about 15-20 bucks which is similar to chopt and just salad. I think the flavor could be better in the dressing though. read more

Elyse makes the best salads!!! we had to come back for round 2 so so good! made with the heart

I've been to several Sweetgreen locations (in NYC and DC) so I'm familiar with the setup. I just started working in the area and was pleased to see one close by. I'm a creature of habit and typically order the Kale Caesar salad with blackened chicken and black pepper. I also ordered a custom salad via their app. I got my salad the way I ordered it and it was good. The service was good as well. I'll definitely order from here again and maybe I'll try something new. read more

Tried the famous Harvest Salad and really wish I hadn't. Most of the chicken pieces were rubber and tasted like they were in the verge of going bad. I swapped the rice for romaine and there a shockingly light amount of kale and romaine, probably not even half the container. At least the cheese was tasty. For the delivery price, quantity, and quantity of ingredients, a gas station could do better. read more

Sweetgreen is a welcome addition to the downtown LIC area in Court Square. There aren't a lot of options for healthy eating options around so this is a nice option to have. There's outdoor and indoor seating available and there are pre-order pickup and delivery options as well. I got the seasonal Chicken Chimichurri for $15 + tax. It was pretty good and the size was decent portion with the included slice of sourdough bread. I'll definitely be coming back here when I'm looking for a healthy meal option. read more

My all time favorite salad chain. I frequented Sweetgreen religiously when I worked in the city and now it's near my home. With seasonable options and countless ingredients, it makes eating salads much more enjoyable rather than a sacrifice for a healthier lifestyle. I recently ordered the summer bbq (summer special) and the chicken pesto parm - goodness in each leafy, healthy bite but with a price tag. read more

Today I became a shareholder of Sweetgreen. The stock dipped below $5 today, BUT that's besides the point. I have been pretty critical of Sweetgreen over the last couple years. The best of times for Sweetgreen was around 2019-2021 time frame for me. I got the Kale Caesar today and I have to say....A little more greens would have been nice. The photos on the website look like the bowl is PACKED and then you go in person and the sides of the bowls look like they could be filled a little more. The green goddess sauce is delicious. I love the dressing. THEY should bottle this dressing up and sell it to consumers, I would buy it. I think most importantly are the prices and they are to the high side. My $13.95 kale caesar with tax was $15.19. If they can walk back their menu prices by $1.25-$2.00, I think that would get the attention of customers. I can go down the street to Chipotle and get a bowl for $12.68 (without guac). The Sweetgreen store in itself was empty. I remember there were lines you had to wait for and now it's empty. If you can't aggressively bring down the prices then offer a salad on the menu for $10.25 + tax. The salad tasted pretty good. I asked for ample green goddess sauce and it was tasty. I would come here 3 or 4 times a month if I can get a Kale Caesar for $12 and change. (tax included) This is the first time I been here since Fall 2024. read more

Super efficient , great portions , clean, positive employees , there's also a manager dude who's super friendly and attentive and makes the place run so well I don't normally like sweet green but this place is great read more

Horribly managed. Tons of people just standing around for their online order or delivery order to be passed out while literally none of the employees staffed the pickup counter so you just had to wait confusedly while staring at your salad on the counter in the back. Placed an online order and showed up when it was "completed" according to the app, but still had to wait ~50 minutes to just have them hand it to me. To top it off, the guy insulted me (slightly racist microagression tbh) when he handed me the order because earlier, half an hour into my wait, I had given him an exasperated face while he was scrolling TikTok instead of helping all the people waiting in the store. I'm not much a complainer, I've worked many food jobs in the past myself, but damn this was such a horrible experience. I used to work near a SG in Manhattan that I would eat at frequently and never had any issues, but because of this experience, I cancelled my Sweetpass membership and am definitely never coming to this location ever again. Just make your salad at home, it'll be quicker than coming here and dealing with this BS read more

This location is so hit or miss. Staff is super friendly, but sometimes there is an idiotic system where they pass salads down the line so multiple employees make your salad. This leads to SO much confusion and error, not to mention a much slower process. I gave up on ordering SG delivery because it 7 out of 10 times the salad would take 2 hours to arrive. I'm bummed that now ordering in the store is inconsistent as well. read more

Waited over half an hour from when I ordered to get my food. Why in the world would anybody waste their time and money at a fast casual place that can't get the fast part right? Maybe the app should have an indicator to warn if there is a long wait time so I know to avoid ordering. read more
