I was hungry after a long day of work and schmoozing. The bar was closing, and I left to grab a salad at Sweetgreen across the street. I walk in apologetically, as the staff are already starting to clean up. However, they welcome me with open arms. Kiki and Cesar were the best! So friendly and helpful and accommodating. They give Sweetgreen 2nd St a good name and deserve raises! They quickly prepared my large and delicious Chicken Avocado Ranch, and kept me entertained and welcomed in the meantime. I can't recommend them enough! The salad was wonderful too. I like this location--it's located right on the 2nd St bike lane, so easy to bike to (as well as walk from BART or Muni.) I will be back! Especially if Kiki and Cesar are there! read more

For the price you pay, the portions are really small. I got the Omega Glow and found myself still hungry after finishing the bowl. I'll admit it was pretty tasty and fresh. The salmon is on the dry side, but I guess thats where the dressing is supposed to come and rescue. I ordered through the app, but got my order 15 minutes after the pick up time. I'll give them the pass since it is the lunch rush, but I hope they can fix the system to be a little more accurate with expected time to avoid wasting patrons time. Not to mention the mobile pick up area was swarmed with food delivery riders making mobile app pick up difficult to navigate. Overall, I'll likely come back from time to time but given I'm on the other side of market in the FiDi, I wouldn't make the daily trek. Hopefully they consider opening a branch on this side of market soon. I mean they have two in Soma and this location is already overcapacity for lunch so I'm sure there's a market for another one downtown! read more

I loved Sweetgreen pre-pandemic and went several times a week. During the years I worked mostly at home, Sweetgreen salads were one of the few draws for heading into the office. However, quality and ingredient choice has really suffered as they've scaled up and gone public over the past few years. Flavors are meh, freshness is not always great, portions vary a lot (for the same salad or bowl), wait times are long, and the price is just too high. I still come here occasionally, but it's become a once in a while spot rather than a regular spot, and one I don't feel the need to hurry back to because it just tastes so meh, compared to what it used to be. I was inspired to write this review by the salad that I had today that was only okay. And it made me remember that basically every other salad that I've had here over the last 3 years has been only okay as well. I can see they've made some recent menu updates to try to lure customers back, but honestly what they need to do is bring back the quality and value that the brand had 10 years ago. Anything short of that is unlikely to be enough in a market like SF. read more

Service worker used her hands for everything! Grabbed the salad with her hands! Grabbed the cheese with her hands! Squeezed the lemon and its seeds into my salad with her hands! Told her she squeezed lemon seeds into my salad. Guess what? That's right she began digging through my salad looking for the seeds with her hands! Yes she had the plastic glove on, but I was stunned and disgusted. Told her I would come back later so she threw my half made hand tossed salad in the trash without saying a word lol I won't be coming to this SG location ever again. read more

I have the Sweetgreen app, but I still prefer ordering in person versus using the app to pre-order. During this visit, there were plenty of employees at the counter helping customers. I ordered the Miso Glazed Salmon ($19.95) because I had a 50% off offer in the app. The employee automatically scooped white rice, but I asked if there was brown rice available. Then my order was passed to another employee for the remaining ingredients. I've eaten at Sweetgreen many times, but this was the first time an employee asked me which sauce I wanted and pointed to the sauce chart, probably because of the spicy cashew dressing. I also didn't realize until now that there are ingredient options customers can choose from. After checking the Sweetgreen website and app later, I noticed the bowl can come with choices like white rice, golden quinoa, or wild rice. It would be helpful if Sweetgreen had a clearer ingredient selection listing at the counter, similar to the sauce options, so customers know they can customize their bowl more easily. The Miso Glazed Salmon includes salmon, avocado, cucumbers, pickled onions, crispy onions, rice, nori sesame seasoning, and spicy cashew dressing. Overall it tasted good, though the salmon portion felt a little small and could have been bigger. read more

I joined their app and so far so good. This month i can get $10 Power salad bowl with kale salad, some sort of crunchy nut, shredded carrots. I got pesto dressing. Spicy broccoli. This place is my favorite salad place. The bowl is huge. I ate half and saved half. Today I went back to use my $5 off for joining their app. I ordered ahead and got the fish with arugula and quinoa, which is only available with online ordering. So delicious. I feel so healthy after eating. Nice salad servers. read more

sweetgreen - Healthy Salads, Wraps, and Bowls - April 2026 deal on their app - Salad Near Me - San Francisco, California

This has been my go-to place for lunch for ages. The quality is pretty consistent, with mistakes fairly rare. Unfortunately they're in an area with immense demand, and orders are getting absurdly slow to fulfil. Want lunch? Ordering over an app? Better put that order in up to 90 minutes ahead of when you'll need it, with absolutely no consistency in prep time. The sheer inconvenience of not being able to plan for lunch within a window of even 45 minutes makes coming here less and less appealing. I'm writing this as I wait 30 more minutes for the order I put in 45 minutes ago to be ready. No thank you. read more

Waited 40 minutes for a pickup order. The 5'3" Spanish female in her 20s (8/7 12:30pm) acted like I was a nuisance when I asked if one of the four people on their phones out front could make my order. Then she and a 5'10" skinny black female shared videos on their phones while three of the standing around people hid in the back (obviously not helping their coworkers with the back orders b/c it's not their job). Her modus operandi is to speak as little to the customers as possible and talk as much with her co-workers as possible. Not even a simple "there's 5 orders ahead of you". Just went to share a phone video with her friend. read more

my first ever 1 star review on yelp. sweetgreens usually is very tasty - i'm a repeat customer, although today's experience has left a bad taste (and literally some bones) in myself. i ordered a build your own bowl with mixed greens, fruits, etc. i was surprised that they charged extra as soon as i added more than 4 toppings. they literally charged me extra for som crispy rice and almonds. in my opinion, id rather have them just raise the price of the bowl then make me feel like i need to limit my choices/number of toppings i choose. the price thing i wasn't too dissatisfied with relatively speaking. it's SF in FiDi, so not surprising/end of the world. what really left a bad taste in my mouth was my sad piece of salmon. usually it's pretty good - today i bit into it and my mouth was full of salmon bones. see below picture for all of the bones i pulled out of my piece of fish. if this bowl costed $10-15, i wouldn't be as upset. this bowl with barely any toppings costed me $21 dollars. and i didn't even finish my salmon since some parts of it literally had 4 bones interlaced in the meat. pretty abhorrent in my opinion - it'll be a while before i come back here. which really is unfortunate, because i've always enjoyed sweet greens. read more

An easy lunch spot if you're in Fidi! They do have 2 locations in the area though. The Harvest Bowl HITs every time especially when you ask for a side of the Green Goddess Ranch with it. Make sure they mix it for you because the goat cheese gets stuck easily! I've also tried the Kbbq Steak Bowl and the Caramelized Garlic Steak; both were very mid since the meat is dry and rough and the sauce is just alright. The Kale Caesar is not bad but not as fulfilling as the Harvest Bowl. This 4/5 is specifically for that HARVEST BOWL! She's solid! read more

I had a business lunch yesterday and I ordered the vegan falafel bowl. It was so delicious! The falafels were crispy on the outside, fluffy inside. The greens were excellent and had great texture. The dressing was simple but tasty, a nice vinaigrette. The mashed sweet potatoes were perfectly whipped. Good portion size. It came with a red sauce that was tasty too: Overall: Tasty, great texture, filling, and healthy. read more

This place is truly love at first bite! Yesterday my company did catering from this restaurant and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! I've only had the harvest bowl when I come to this restaurant, but it always hits the spot. I'm sure the other bowls are just as amazing but the harvest bowl is where it's at for me. It is packed with the freshest of ingredients, incredibly flavorful, not to mention super filling. Their portion sizes are big and plentiful. The next time I come here, I'm planning on trying a different bowl for a change but I honestly don't think you could ever go wrong read more

The result is a bowl packed full of greens and no less flavour for the win. read more

I watched the server try and mix a salad in the to go bowl Which seemed challenging. I ordered Guac Greens there was maybe a quarter an avocado.

Place was clean and a great location by the bay and the ball park. read more

I ordered the caramelized garlic steak bowl and kale caesar steak salad. I don't recommend either of these. My caramelized garlic steak bowl was supposed to come with wild rice, but I got mushy white rice instead. The sweet potatoes were so raw and hard that I couldn't eat any of it. What a disappointment! The kale caesar steak salad was just okay, but the steak had an odd rubbery texture to it and didn't taste fresh. I've had better experiences at other sweetgreen locations. I won't order from this location again. read more

This is my go-to salad spot for work. The harvest bowl never disappoints, but ever since the Cote collab came out I've been eating the KBBQ Steak Bowl nonstop. I love getting double steak. The single portion leaves more to be desired. Can get pretty busy during lunch hours so allot your time accordingly. I do pickup and sometimes it's not ready at the stated time so I've learned to just come a bit later. They have clearly marked lines and pick up shelves so at least they are good at efficiency! read more

It's a reliable bowl of healthy and fairly tasty food! It's a dent on the wallet for a salad for sure, but a girl gotta eat lunch if she forgot to pack and wants to eat healthy. The harvest bowl is usually my go-to! The seasonal autumn harvest bowl is good too. I usually order for pick up and it's super convenient. The space at this location is nice to dine in at as well and there's some outdoor seating too. read more

Staff is friendly and the AC felt nice during our heatwave, but the food was mediocre. We got the autumn harvest bowl and a shroomami with added chicken. The autumn harvest bowl felt like it was missing something - maybe avocado? And the shroomami bowl was wayyy too salty. I used to like coming here (pre-pandemic), but now would rather go to Mendocino farms a couple blocks away. read more

0 stars if I could. My office is above this Sweetgreen, and Sweetgreen uses the lobby to store their trash cans. See photos - 10+ garbage cans in the lobby (and I had to move one with my foot so that I could get past the lobby door), and 1 open one in the elevator. This happens every morning. The smell is disgusting and an indication of the bad food that Sweetgreen serves. I used to love sweetgreen, consistently ordering every week, but this behavior puts a bad taste in my mouth, figuratively and literally. The salads taste pretty foul. I'd recommend Mixt. read more

I've been eating here 5 days a week for the past few months. The food is good, healthy, and plenty of variations. I haven't gotten sick of salads yet and I've lost over 10 pounds. Even better Madi and her team are super awesome. They're friendly and do a good job. Don't plan to stop any time soon. The current rating of 3.5 is stupid low. It should at least be a solid 4 but I'm giving it a 5 because the people and food make me happy. read more

Went here on Monday lunch hour rush time and that is generally a good test for an outlet like sweetgreen. Not very impressed with how they were handling it. The place was a bit messy and they were handling food with a lot of rush. The take out container was already leaking by the time I got it. I took hot honey chicken but there was nothing hot about it. I don't know if they just missed any hot sauce. Irrespective of that food was actually good. If you want to have a great tasting healthy meal, this place is not a bad option. read more

I ordered the miso salmon bowl with customizations and the employee working gave me the wrong item. I'm not sure what she gave me but it was chicken instead of salmon. On top of that, she gave me the end of the bread butt slice :(( she seemed like she was in a rush and was a bit annoyed although I was the only one in line. I couldn't come back bc I rushed back into a meeting I don't order often from sweet green so this was a really disappointing experience read more

My first time to try it, though I have heard about this popular salad restaurant for a long time. I ordered a miso bowl. The serving size was larger than I expected. With $14.95, this is very reasonable. The ingredients in my salad were all fresh and tasted not bad. Besides, the restaurant was minimally decorated and created an atmosphere resembling nature. I also like their displaying where the ingredients come from. The stuff were also trained and made my salad quickly. So in general I think this place is a good choice for a convenient and healthy meal. Another good thing is that all bowls and plates are labeled with calories. Still it might be better if they could indicate the calories of their dressing, as I saw several (including me) asking dressing on the side. read more

After spending 8 hours traveling, I just wanted a healthy meal. The salad looks great but I couldn't enjoy it because there was no utensils whatsoever in my bag. Not even napkins. Being that I'm staying in a hotel I had to use my fingers to eat some of the salad because I was starving. I couldn't enjoy the avocado or egg either, which was an additional charge, because it was whole without a way for me to cut anything up. To top it off, after spending 40.00, I was unable to reach anyone by phone because there isn't any phone number provided.... Sweetgreen you guys really have to do better!! read more

I frequently order from this place and it consistently delivers! They give generous portions, although the price point generally reflects this as well. I usually choose one of the menu options when I walk in (haven't ordered online, but tip taken from some of you other reviewers!) Last time I was there I got the chicken and brussels and it was pretty good with the cranberry dressing! I ordered towards the end of the day and actually got a free dessert, which was dy-no-mite. Highly recommend their take on the rice crispy treat! I think the appeal of sweetgreen is its chain-wide consistency and reliability, and this instantiation delivers on those traits. Perhaps it's a victim of being in downtown SF, but I just wish they could set these prices a littleeee cheaper so I could justify eating here more often! read more

I have a different issue with the 2nd street location in 2nd in san francisco. I went in yesterday and ordered 2 bowls. One custom and one shroomami. I don't know if the lady did not hear me but for my base I want half wild rice and half lettuce. In the picture you will see that there is no lettuce or double sweet potato/ mushrooms or any tofu. I was charged for double mushrooms but only had one scoop. The shroomami I was charged for extra mushrooms but in my opinion wasn't given extra mushrooms. Please refund me!!! read more

Honestly, I had a piss poor experience coming here last weekend. My fiancé and I decided to get something light to eat since we had to do something later and we wanted to join the celebration downtown for SF Pride. We figured having a salad would be nice. The restaurant mostly had people eating already and there wasn't a line at all. We were greeted by someone who asked us what we wanted, but it took us a few more minutes to figure out what we wanted. I ended up getting the Guacamole Greens and my fiancé got the Garden Cobb. *skip the next paragraphs if you wanna read the review of the salads instead* I wasn't so sure if the worker was new or just over the day, but he was a bit confused making our salads. Granted if he was new, that's totally fine. He did make my salad first and it seemed like he added everything, but when it came to my fiancé's, he threw away the first salad bowl he made. He ended up doing another one since he grabbed the wrong salad mix. When it was time to start adding dressings and other toppings, he ended up getting confused with both of our salads and added things my boyfriend didn't want in his salad (Ex: almonds), and didn't seem that apologetic. His other colleague pointed out how he grabbed the wrong dressing that my fiancé wanted and almost used it instead of the goddess ranch dressing. My fiancé asked for a bit more, and it was just a small squirt. When it came to mine, it seemed okay tbh, but the attitude of the worker making our salads rubbed us the wrong way. Even when my fiancé asked for water cups, he ended up just telling him to ask someone else. *END RANT - FOOD REVIEW BELOW* Despite the odd service, the salads were okay tbh nothing exciting or mind blowing about these salads. Although they are filling to an extent, I don't think it's worth the $35 we paid. It didn't seem like we got a lot of protein in ours. I might have selected the wrong salad and I may have to try their warm bowls next time, but you can def go to other salad places. read more

I really enjoyed it but I didn't like one of the toppings in it. I'm not sure what it is but in the picture, it's in between the two containers. It had a crunchy texture which is why I didn't like it (I also don't like croutons in my salad so that's why I didn't like this haha). read more
