    It was good now it's gone
    Amy N.

    The patio out back here is the place to sit, it's quiet shady and tucked in the back away from the main drag. The service was pretty good, and the food was freshly prepared and very tasty. The guac was good, a little spicier than some, but in a good way. The salad bowls were ENORMOUS. and the build your own choices were varied. You can make exactly the salad you want here, no problem.

    There aren't enough good salad places - so ordered delivery from this place to try it out. Our salads were great - generous portion of protein-packed salad. ingredients were fresh and the dressing was delicious. Loved their presentation - all the toppings are grouped so you can pour in your dressing and shake the box.

    This place serves one of the best salads I've had. There used to be another salad spot I loved, but it's no longer open this one definitely fills that gap, and I'll definitely be coming back. It is a little on the pricier side, but it's worth it. I ordered online for pickup, and by the time I arrived my food was already ready. The location is a bit tucked away in the back, but the space itself is simple, clean, and inviting. I chose the create your own salad, which includes five toppings. I tried both the pesto Ceezer and the sweet sesame dressings. The sweet sesame is lighter and not overly sweet, which I liked. My favorite, though, was the pesto Ceezer it was creamy, fresh, and really flavorful.

    The food looks exactly like the pictures. Vibrant, fresh and delicious! My friend and I were checking out this place because it looked healthy and fresh. Yes and yes! We were helped by the owner who was so hospitable. He let my friend taste the basil that was displayed in the restaurant. We ordered the Samurai Steak Salad and Steak Supreme Salad. Perfect portions! He even gave us a free watermelon drink that had basil in it. Refreshing and tasty! We also chatted with one of the staff. He was pleasant to talk to and loved the food. Love when staff love the product they serve. Only complaint...the Campbell location is very difficult to find. It a definite hidden gem.

    Samurai Steak Salad
    Stacy C.

    Tried The Good Salad for the first time today. Had a Samurai Steak Salad delivered for lunch. Overall I loved the salad, especially the variety of ingredients like edamame, roasted peanuts, carrots, and green onions. Everything tasted fresh and delicious ... except the steak. I saw pictures of what the steak looked like before I ordered, but somehow got it in my head it would be thinly sliced and medium rare. Nope. It was cubed, cold, and slathered in spicy mayonnaise, which was very, very spicy. Too spicy to eat. I should have asked them to leave the mayo off. They do allow you to customize your salad, which I love. I opted for 100% romaine and added corn. Yum. The sesame dressing it came with was good, but not my favorite. It also comes with a glaze, which I did not try. I was surprised they didn't have a bigger selection of dressings. Honey mustard would have been good.

    My favorite salads are the Blazing Bird Salad and Cali Caesar! I would pass on the Steak Supreme. Overall, quality salads and great service. I will note that I hate the parking situation around this location - I'd rather just go to the other location to pick up the food to-go. The salads here are great, quick to make and grab, but I don't know if parking (especially on weekends) are worth it.

    The Good Salad is a cute salad bar in downtown Campbell. They took over the space from Brown Chicken Brown Cow and didn't change much of the design or layout. The service is really friendly and fast. We got the Caesar salad and the brazing chicken salad. Both salads were great with fresh quality ingredients. To be honest, the two salads were too similar to really get a good sampling of their menu. I guess I'll need to go back and try different items.

    I mean no words can explain how good and fresh this salad was will be buying again I highly recommend you try this place out if your looking for a healthier way to eat or start

    Steak Supreme
    Katie R.

    Nothing like a healthy and filling salad that won't break the bank! I'm not sure when salads got to be over $20, but it was refreshing to see them range from $14-$15 here, while including meat - even steak! They have a variety of already composed salads as well as a BYO menu. The BYO option might run you a little more if you select steak, but they start at $15 and offer a good variety of toppings. Ingredients are fresh and salads are filling! They're located downtown Campbell in the old Brown Chicken Brown Cow location, so a little tucked away, but just look for the pink signage and you should be able to find them!

    Great make your own salad spot. Located in some back alley, hole in the wall. You wouldn't think much of it if you randomly walked by, but this salad spot is really great! The decor is reminiscent of a Jamba Juice, but feels obviously more health conscious and has a nice vibe to it. The salad portion felt pretty generous and the staff was really accommodating for a place you order while standing. I wasn't a fan of their wild watermelon juice as it was fixed with some greens that really took the sweetness out of the drink, but everything else about this place slaps for me. Definitely worth the journey navigating through the back alleys of Campbell!

    Clean and bright interior.

    Grateful for this cute salad place in downtown Campbell. They have half a dozen signature salads, and you can also custom make your own salad and choose from many ingredients. I ordered the Samurai Steak salad which had a nice medley of vegetables and dressing. The cut pieces of steak were well-done and looked pale, leaving me to wonder it it was boiled in the boiling process. The dressing helped give flavor. I had hoped that the steak would be nicely grilled and juicy. Otherwise it was fine and I ate the whole thing. Reasonable portion and price. Good service and clean place.

    I love when there's a good salad place in town. No pun intended ;). A really solid spot that's reasonably priced for salads and you don't feel like you have to pay $20+ for lettuce. Tried their prefix salad and it was delicious. My friend customized hers and really enjoyed it as well. My go-to place for salads from now on!

    Ordering online was really easy and the menu is small with a "make your own option" so choosing my order wasn't overwhelming at all. Once I placed my order, I headed out to pick it up. Parking is challenging as there's no dedicated lot so if street parking is full, you may need to park a few blocks away in one of the parking structures. Thankfully I found a spot right in front. Note that this location plus tucked in the rear of the building so if you're not familiar with the area, you may walk past it a few times. It's the old Brown Chicken Brown Cow location. My order was ready to go when I got there so I was in and out very quickly. Cute store front with bright welcoming colors, super clean dining area and an outdoor patio for when the weather gets a little warmer. Customer service was excellent and with my bag in hand, I took my order back home. Here's what I ordered: BLAZING CHICKEN SALAD - super fresh and the chicken was juicy had good flavor. I loved the crunchy onion strings and the perfect scoop of avocado. This came with the Chipotle ranch dressing but I also ordered the plain ranch as well. Both were tasty but I think I liked the basic ranch the best. HOMEMADE FOCCIA - soft, fluffy goodness with great flavor. I drizzled a bit of the balsamic glaze over it and holy yum! Note on the prepackaged dressings - these are all made in house and packaged so for those who thought they were purchased elsewhere, that's incorrect. They package them up fresh in mass quantities to save on time, waste and spillage! My goal this year is to eat more salads so I'll absolutely be back however not more than once a week since these babies are pretty pricy. Salad + bread + tip was over $20. Portions are decent but not huge. If you're looking to share a salad, I'd suggest adding extra protein to plump it up a bit.

    The salads are consistently so good. The steak with the pear vinaigrette is the best.

So, I've unfortunately been passing it over. I finally decided to try it out and I was in for a treat. I got the chicken kebab plate as the sandwich board right out side the door suggested, along with a side of fries to go. The fries were crispy with a ting of spice and delicious. But the star of the show was the kebab for sure. Meaty, plump, flavorful, definitely one of the outstanding chicken kebabs in town. Lot of places give you a dry, flaky kebabs but here, it's been cooked to the perfect amount of juiciness. The rice was also butterly and flavorful. Good pita, hummus and the vegetables too. It might feel a little pricey (but everything else is too nowadays), but they give you a nice filling portion. The staffs are very nice and attentive. Clean, fun, colorful interior. I'd love to dine in next time. I'm definitely coming back for more, I want to try the loaded fries wraps, and the kanafeh next time around. The location's and the parking access is not the best, so I really hope Manakish gets all the attraction and attentions it deserves!

    1st time here. A friend invited me to join her, and said it was where many of her co-workers ate…read more The short version is: my meal was very sub-par, and way over-priced. The details: I normally don't eat a lot of meat, so I chose the Falafel Salad. It came with extremely little lettuce, plus a few olives (which I don't eat), onions (which I also eat sparingly), tomatoes, cucumbers, and the falafel balls. Oh! And there was feta cheese, but those were such miniscule pieces, and so few, that I wouldn't have remembered it was supposed to be part of the salad, if I didn't just pull up a photo online with their ordering system. What you see in the photo online is not what you get. The photo actually looks like a salad. Since it was called a salad, I expected there to be more lettuce, than the few pieces on the plate. I mainly was cutting up the cucumber & tomato pieces to go with the falafels. I don't even recall any dressing. There were also some pita slices with what I assumed was hummus. Whatever the dip was, it did not taste good to me at all. So I left all of the pita bread, as well, since it was dry without anything on it. Maybe what I assumed was hummus was a dressing. Hard to know, but it was not tasty. For the $27 I paid at a walk up counter, I would have expected much better food! I have bought frozen falafels at Lunardis (around $7) and made a salad for them at home, and enjoyed it very much, which is why I ordered it. I have purchased Spanakopita at the store many times, (about $5 for around 12 of them at the store) and made them at home, which is why I didn't order that. The falafel salad was not an enjoyable meal for me at Yiassoo's. I'd also seen some reviews from a few years back that said they paid around $10 or $11 for their meal. That is more in-line price-wise with what you get, based upon my meal. With most of the meals around $20 for lunch, I feel they were very over-priced. I also asked my friend if she'd like to split a Baklava. They had a pistachio one & chocolate one. My friend wanted to try the chocolate one, so I bought that. I didn't think I was too into baklava, but thought it might be nice to try at this highly rated Greek restaurant. The main flavor that came through was the honey & nuts. The chocolate was just a tiny, narrow drizzle on top. I didn't hate it, but I would never order it again. My friend took one bite, and said she mainly tasted the honey, and would take it home for her husband. It may be very good baklava, but it was not to our tastes. My friend ordered the Gyro salad. It had a large pile of shaved meat, and she seemed to enjoy it. She ordered it To-Go, as she knew she'd be taking some of it home. She seemed to have more lettuce under her pile of meat than my meal got. Maybe because it was in a To-Go box, which might be larger than the plate? Or maybe the person making my salad just wasn't paying attention to how to make a decent meal. I was hoping I was trying a restaurant that I could go back to for something different. Based upon my experience, I would not go back, if I had a choice. I gave it 3 stars, because maybe other dishes, or people looking to just eat meat or falafel balls and not much else would enjoy it. I only have the 1 meal to review, but it does not encourage me to try it again. Overpriced & not a fulfilling meal.

We ordered the roti, crispy pork belly, sausage, Laos style papaya salad, and a khao soi to share between 3 people. All of the food was absolutely delicious but we felt like the portions were a little small for the price. The pork belly and sausage were both ~ $23 and didn't come with as many pieces as we thought it would. This was some of the crispiest roti I've ever had! I loved the curry dipping sauce on the side and the nice crunch of the cucumbers. The pork belly was slightly overcooked, a little hard but the flavors were great! The sausage tasted house made, it had a great tang to it and I loved the variety of dipping sauce. We ordered extra spicy/hot for the Laos papaya salad but it was definitely medium.

When it was taking longer than expected, I walked back up to them and asked what the status of the order was and they told me that they accidentally gave away my order to a doordasher and that they called him and told him to bring it back so they could give it to me. I'm very disappointed in this practice for a few reasons - at no point did they let me know this transparently, and if I hadn't asked about it, I assume they would have just given me an order that some stranger already drove off with, which is unsanitary, not to mention that my food would be cold. It's also unreasonable to expect that a customer would accept food that someone else drove off with. On top of this, the food took way too long for obvious reasons. Instead of suggesting an appropriate alternative like them remaking the meal they expected me to take the food that passed through someone else's hands. I told them I need a refund because that's a disgusting suggestion. The food here is quite good so I'm very disappointed and reluctant to give this place a bad review, but it's inexcusable to do this in my opinion and doesn't speak well as to the other hygiene practices of this business.
