At first sight, I thought the portion size of my bowl wouldn't fill me up at all. Boy, I was wrong! Maybe it was the slice of bread on the side but I was actually very satiated even leaving the bread for last. I ordered the Mexican elote bowl with roasted tofu. The tofu is cut into small cubes, so it was difficult to see, but in essence, everything was cut to the same size and therefore all bites weren't awkward. Traditional elote is made with cotija and not goat cheese like the SG bowl but the goat cheese added an unexpected, welcomed tang to the greens. My friend ordered the guacamole greens with chicken and he finished his bowl way ahead of me. This place gets super busy for lunch. Seating is limited so take it to go or designate someone to puppy guard the dine-in seats. Really no other complaints. I think sweetgreen belongs in the ranks with my other favorite assembly line fast causal joints like cava. read more

I've been to this location before and haven't had an issue but that maybe because I wasn't paying attention but I recently ordered from here through DoorDash and I found a worm in my bowl.. Not sure how many other times there might've been a worm in my bowl but I don't think I can ever eat here again nor let my friends/family eat here. **there is a video of it crawling around but I can't post a video on yelp** read more

I've gotten a salad here 6-7 times thus far. Lots of fresh ingredients. I love that I can "build my own" salad and specify which ingredients go into the salad! (When I say "build my own" I mean tell them what goes into my salad!). I usually get a mix of baby spinach, arugula, and some other leafy green, plus red radishes, bell pepper, cucumber, cilantro, sprouts, avocado, pecans, red onion, feta cheese, bacon, freshly cracked black pepper, and their jalapeño citrus vinaigrette dressing. Pretty darn tasty! read more

Passed this place for many days and saw list of people at Reston Town Center pick up these salads so have it a try today on a cool simmer day so could eat outside. Price reasonable and salad decent but not very tasty but I assume healthy. The strawberry drink not flavorful but I assume healthy without sugar. So all in all not bad good service and healthy. read more

How do you go wrong with a salad? You don't. Sweetgreen is a little tucked away from everything but it's a couple stores down from Jackson's on the same corner, walk towards World of Beer and you'll see it next to Red Velvet Cupcakes. The Kale Caesar salad is my all time fav. I literally crave it...as I am doing right now writing about it. I think there's some crack or some addictive additive in the dressing that makes it so wonderful. Then the crisp and fresh mixture of the kale and lettuce together in sweet harmony with baked chicken and that oh so good parmesan crisp is like music to my ears when the employee splits it into pieces and throws it on my salad. Ahh, so good. Heavy on the dressing too, please. The variety of lemonades, limeades and teas are also delicious and refreshing. I like to try a different one each time I go. The only reason I'm giving a 4 star instead of 5 is for customer service. Most people seem very unhappy and don't want to take your order. They seem frustrated and didn't want to be there. Sorry friend, it's your job. Could work on that a bit. Luckily the food makes up for the lack of service but as long as my salad is good, I'm definitely good. Oh and you feel healthy after. Salads = healthy. Who cares if you ate that double bacon triple patty burger earlier with 5 different cheeses and an extra side of fries? You're doing good with that salad, my friend. Haven't tried anything else but Kale Caesar but I am sure everything else on the menu is delicious. I try to go at least once every other week, can't live without Caesar dressing from Sweetgreen. read more

Not only did they jack up their prices by over two dollars per salad. you'll get an almost half empty bowl, for more of your money. Its like a entrée side salad portion. Is extra lettuce really going to break your bank? Big-time rip off! If you're going to charge more, at least give the same portion or a little bit more. SMH Reston Town Center location. read more

I just went in for lunch, I was the only customer and there were about 5 workers. None of them spoke to me or even welcomed me in, they just stared at me and made me feel uncomfortable. Then after about 2 minutes of me standing there someone came up and put gloves on and i just started ordering because she didn't even speak to me. When I ordered an elote salad she corrected me and looked confused because it is a bowl not a salad. I didn't realize. The whole time I was ordering she kept acting like I was stupid. At the end didn't even tell me my total or offer a receipt and I just walked out. When I walked in it felt like I was interrupting a gossiping session and I was immediately uncomfortable. The salads were okay but definitely small. read more

Sweetgreen changed the packaging - and drastically reduced the portions of the salads in the process. Don't be fooled by the advertising they include in the delivery bag - portions are roughly 1/2 to 2/3 the size of their salads just 2 weeks ago. In cardboard packaging that will fall apart within about 2 days of refrigeration. So, cheaper packaging, severely reduced portions - for the same price. read more

I ordered this for pick up and excluded the carrots, cabbage and almonds. When I got it all that my bowl had was THE THINGS I DID NOT WANT IN MY BOWL!! This was also my first time ordering from this place. Never again. read more

This is my kind'a place. There is a huge blackboard inside with a list of all the sourced local, fresh ingredients inside. You can order one of their menu salads or tweak it or you can just make your own with the 2 dozen or so ingredients they have on hand. Proteins include fish, chicken, tofu and mushroom. They have about 4-5 different sets of greens as the base and also have quinoa and other warm mix-ins. I chose to go with the Fish Taco bowl - roasted steelhead, shredded cabbage, cilantro, tortilla chips, warm quinoa, organic arugula, sweetgreen hot sauce, lime cilantro jalapeno vinaigrette. Really light and delicious - the lime cilantro jalapeño vinaigrette was great. This is a minimal place - they don't have tons of other things on the menu or drinks or sides. It is what it is. They have a few teas and a lemonade and water. Minimal decor and plain wood tables for seating. But it was really good and the staff were super friendly while I agonized over the menu and answered all my questions. I would for sure com back here for a salad. It was just what I wanted for dinner. read more

I love Sweetgreen...but they've gotten stingy. I paid $14.26 for my custom salad to be barely filled. When you're paying that much it should be full. I've gotten more and Morse disappointed with the amount they give you for what you pay as time has gone on and I just can't rationalize coming back much more:/ read more

I ordered delivery through DoorDash and after paying extra for the elements of my Create Your Own Salad, I was disappointed to see that my tortilla strips and bread were missing. The avocado was fresh which is not always the case with this branch. I love SweetGreen but I hesitate to return here because of the carelessness that goes into assembling the expensive meals... read more

Bought 4 salads yesterday and was so disappointed. I've been a regular at SG and these salads were awful. The server asked if I wanted a squeeze of lime, which is supposed to be standard in the kale caesar. They were mostly greens (few tomatoes and very little parmesan) and I don't think they used the correct dressing. The person making the salads skimped on other ingredients and was really sloppy about the preparation. I won't be back to SG and neither will my guests, who had been regulars. read more

$12 for salad. What's missing? They forgot the protein. No chicken, which makes it an overpriced salad. Bad service read more

My coworkers and I have been on a sweetgreen binge since we were introduced and I think we've ordered salads for lunch 3 days in a row this week alone. Our unanimous fave is the garden cob with respective modifications. We love the veggie freshness and everything that you can swap or add to your bowl. The balsamic vinaigrette just adds the right acidity and sweetness, it's so good. I'm also super excited to try the plates in the next few weeks as we embark on a healthy work lunch habit. My weight has gone up since weaning my baby and I sure could use more healthy greens in my daily intake and around 10/bowl it's definitely worth the money. The only downside is I get ravenous for carbs and sweets for dinner. Pick up in store saves you all the delivery fees but have to park in the garage which can be hectic during lunch hours. read more

We ordered for the first time lunch and while it looked great online, what we received was less than great. One warm bowl was Pesto chicken and it was half full and looked like it had been dropped and did not look appetizing. Also the spinach with stems was not attractive and hard to swallow. Consider cutting off spinach stems? I had the farmhouse Caesar but it also was a half full bowl. My was tasty. Just not really worth the 30 dollars we paid for lunch. I would not recommend this place until they clean up the presentation. read more

No mask enforcement indoors as stated on front door. Employee had mask down below nose while serving. My salad was prepared with some ingredients being plated with utensils and other were just picked up with gloved hand.. didn't feel Sanitary because who knows when gloves were last changed. Food was fresh.. no complaints there but clearly procedures not being followed. read more

I have been to sweet green once before in Vienna and in person. While ordering take out online I received the smallest salad ever for $16. I am super disappointed in the amount of lettuce and the fact that I got literally 2 crushed chips. I had to add my own chips and lettuce here at work. The rest of the office got chipotle from next door. Should have trusted their judgement. read more

If I'm being 100% honest, I've never been a huge salad person. However, and with that being said, this place is really changing that for me. Choose from a handful of salads on their menu or feel free to build your own. Start with a base (a variety of greens, quinoa, or wild rice), choose up to 4 ingredients (produce sourced locally), protein, other premiums, and finish it off with a dressing. I've been to this location as well as the Crystal City location and they're both great. Decor is simplistic/contemporary - think stainless steel and wood. I have to say the service here is great too. I stopped by for lunch today with the line almost out the door but the crew handled it like champs. Being in the Reston Town Center, this location gets packed around lunchtime from all of the business men and women in the area. Despite the long line, it only took about 5-10 minutes to get through the line and back out the door. Just a PSA though: be careful with their "premium ingredients." If you build your own salad you can easily go over $14-$15 just choosing a couple of these which is a little pricey for a salad. read more

I went there with my daughter and some guacamole salad. Lots of lettuce and very, very little toppings. We shopped and stopped at another restaurant because shortly after we were starving. They are good as an appetizer but don't recommend them as a meal. I had maybe .05oz-1 oz of chicken (4 small pieces) in my salad. I expected 3-4oz. read more

Food was pretty good--kid friendly. Pretty convenient for take out. Dont get too carried away with the add-ins--there's only so much space. : ) read more

Convenient location in Reston Town Center as there is a garage with free parking right next door. My daughter ordered a Chicken Caesar and requested romaine. The romaine lettuce was scattered with brown pieces. It's a huge pet peeve for me but she didn't seem to mind. I had the Curry Cauliflower salad which was pretty good, although I was not given any of the side sauces displayed on the menu... When we got to the register our total was $23.80. I handed the cashier $24 and she asked if I could pay with a card instead. I told her she could keep the change that I didn't want to pay with my card. She still didn't get it. Said I had to wait until someone else came out (wait to eat my lunch because they don't have cash) or pay with my card. I then reiterated my point to her and she still didn't get it. I then suggested that she just ring it up later so that we can eat our lunch. All in all I love the concept and their ingredients. This was our first visit. But we will try a different location for our next visit. Should have heeded the warning of previous reviews. read more

This place is great. Wonderful menu of all kinds of different salads and other healthy food options. They will customize any salad to your heart's content. Their app allows you to order remotely, then show up at any time you specify and pick up your salad. The last time I ordered here, my salad was ready in literally two minutes. Incredibly fast! Friendly service, too. read more

I usually love sweetgreen, Almost everything about it, including portion. But today's pick up was very disappointing. I ordered 4 different salads. First, all of them were way smaller in portion than before covid. Even my nine year old was hungry after he finished the whole thing, and he usually can't and saves it for later. Second, one of the my salads- I requested light dressing which I think they don't even look at, because it was so heavily dressed. No consistency, and that's why I fell in love with sweetgreen. read more

Healthful, quick lunch choice or dinner option with freshest whole ingredients sourced mostly from local farmers leaves leaves you sated without feeling heavy and lightens your carbon footprint simultaneously. All proteins on the menu are hormone and antibiotic-free; you'll feel good about promoting sustainability while eating delicious, all-natural, organic food from this business! Offering vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, Sweetgreen features salads, wraps, soups, and frozen yogurt in several standard options, yet gives it's patrons the freedom to customize personal favorites. I appreciate the calorie counts prominently displayed and the friendly, competent staff who move the salad-making process right along, even when the lines are long. I chose the "kale Caesar" today and couldn't resists raising my hand in the Roman "ave" pose and teasing my dining companion with cheesy adaptations of Shakespeare's famous Mark Antony speech, "friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me $8.50. I have come to eat Caesar not to praise him!" Be prepared for limited seating inside the restaurant. Now that the weather has cooled a bit, I don't mind sitting outside on a bench and people watching while enjoying my to-go bowl. I found Sweetgreen quick, convenient, delicious, and quite affordable for a Reston Town Center lunch option! Do check out the iPhone app to score savings on your future meals. read more

Have you noticed when Americans go to buy milk, they just stand there for a good 20 minutes before deciding what kind of milk to buy?? 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, whole, half and half, skimmed, nonfat, organic, "all natural", soy milk, rice milk, almond milk, cashew milk, apricot milk, peanut milk, human milk, I mean seriously we're trapped in a state of analysis paralysis! This happens to me every time I go to a pretentious salad place nowadays.. They literally stuff everything and the kitchen sink into these salads! Having had a horrible experience from Chopt, I was very cautious this time but decided to get the spicy sabzi with Brussel sprouts and roasted chicken for some extra pow.. BOY was this salad amazing! These are the kinds of salads that make you inspired to create the same thing at home! (Coz $12 for a salad is ridiculous) I love it! Sweetgreen 4ever!!!! read more

Call me basic...I love sweetgreen. The Harvest Bowl is my go-to, comforting, satisfying choice. Extra points for it being warm. All the elements are delicious and good, and it's one of the best thought-out combinations. You can swap out ingredients for another, so I like switching out greens for kale or arugula and also adding an ingredient or two. Feel free to pick a different dressing! And don't let them forget to ask if you want bread. I went several visits not being asked if I wanted bread at various locations! Sweetgreen makes tasty, fulfilling salads, and the portions are generous, so don't feel like you're choosing a lesser choice of meal when you go here! read more

Used to love coming here BUT! 8 pm on a Wednesday night and we got zero service. We stood in line for ten minutes while one person slowly helped two customers ahead of us. She was running the full set of stations alone. Two other women came out and made eye contact but didn't acknowledge us. In spite of seeing us stand there for a while, they did nothing. We were starving so we left. Zero service, zero efficiency, zero of my business. You can't run a restaurant like this when there are a dozen other places to get a salad in Reston town center. If mgmt is reading this, your customers have to come first. One employee is getting water for herself and doing nothing urgent. Another thought refilling the station was more important even though there were no other people behind us in line. read more

Wow, in terms of salads that taste better than junk food, this is the place to go! My earth bowl was 750 calories, meaning I wouldn't waste away due to lack of nutrition. The ingredient list taken from their blog includes: arugula, roasted chicken, white cheddar, grape tomatoes, raw corn and spicy broccoli. How does that not sound good?! The salad is of the warm kind, so it also gives me that warm tummy feeling :) Paired with a lentil soup, this was a satisfying winter lunch. read more

The best salads on earth! Always fresh and so delicious! I have never had a salad that wasn't made to perfection.

The food is always delicious but this one was super busy and when I asked for NO bread the lady looked at me and put bread onto my salad. When I have a allergy to bread. Just feel that simple requests like omitting bread should be followed. I have worked at a sweetgreen before, it is not super difficult to follow instructions. UPDATE: a day after posting this review I was contacted by the management of sweet green and offered a replacement meal. As I said I love the food so the rating is improved from this! Tip: if you have any food allergies better safe than sorry, make a big deal and they will replace it with safe food. read more

Really cool salad restaurant. Compost....Enviro conscious....their dressings are incredible.

I am honestly beating myself for discovering this place, on my last week in DC! I came to this location to pick up dinner: kale and romaine as my base, with chicken, baked falafel, corn, cabbage, tomato and cucumbers. I tried the lime jalapeño dressing, and my god probably one of the best salads I have ever had!! Highly recommend this place! read more

sweetgreen is an amazing lunch spot. They have many healthy options to build your own salad so that you won't get bored. The spicy cashew dressing is my absolute favorite. Beware because they do charge extra for lots of their toppings so just ask. In my option it is worth the upcharge to add cheese. I love the farm to table concept as they show where all their produce comes from. I will definitely be coming back for more hearty salads. read more

This is a pretty solid choice for salads and wraps in this area. There's a whole slew of options here, from the types of salad greens, fresh toppings, dressings, and proteins. They also have a bunch of pre-set salads or wraps, in case you can't make up your mind. One thing that's particular nice here is how they toss the salads to ensure everything is nicely combined and coated with your choice of dressing. You can choose from light, medium, or heavy for the amount of dressing.Each salad comes with a piece of buckwheat bread. It's nice and chewy. They recommend that if you're building your own salad, to pick a base (warm grains, kale, mesclun, baby spinach, & arugula), pick 3 salad toppings and 1 crunchy topping, plus a dressing. I tried the Chick-P salad, which was one of their pre-set items. I did swap out one of the toppings (peppers) for red grapes. The lemon tahini dressing definitely has a nice mouth feel and rich sesame flavor that can be a bit on the heavy side. If anything, you can always opt for a taste of the dressing prior to committing to a choice. SX got the Guacamole salad and was relieved to find out that this place served animal proteins. He definitely had that deer in headlights look for a brief second when he stepped inside. I tried the lemonade here and it's pretty strong on the flavor as opposed to sweetness. If you opt for iced tea, they also have simple syrup for you to sweeten it. Fountain Boylan sodas here. In addition, they also have froyo with a decent number of toppings as well. Salads here are a bit on the pricey side, but there's definitely a lot of it and it's of decent quality. Everything was fresh, nothing wilty here! Everything here boosts being eco-friendly, compostable, and also being freshly local too. read more

New menu items and calorie counts are appreciated; Spice Fiend definitely approves the Spicy Sabzi, which is also vegan, but can easily be altered. I've always preferred the Santorini. Prices may seem steep at first, but considering you're getting mostly local/organic and the portion size is large, it's all worth it. Friendly and efficient staff. Yogurt is tasty too. The complimentary bread is pretty meh, in my opinion. Get the sweetgreen app on your phone and you definitely will "unlock" some good rewards and freebies. read more
