You haven’t experienced good service until you’ve had Olga make you a custom platter at Just Salad

This was my first time ever visiting this restaurant. I am not a big salad eater but wanted a change and I am so happy I did. I witnessed Denayshaia handle a rude and entitled customer with professionalism and a level of maturity that is something you do not see anymore. The salads were delicious, see below, can't wait to visit back home!

This was my first time . From the minute i walked in I was greeted. I was helped as soon as I went to order. All the workers were attentive to everyone in line . The ingredients were fresh and I absolutely loved how the lady at the register explained how they chop fresh ingredients each day. The store was clean . The staff tonight made me feel welcomed and didn’t hesitate with any questions I had . This restaurant is card only which isn't a big deal. I will definitely come back . The guy who made my bowl was very pleasant and didn't have a problem when i asked fir extra dressing. Thank you for an amazing experience.

The food was incredible. I got a buffalo chicken salad and it was top-notch. Additionally, the consumer service was nothing short of excellent. D’Naisah flawlessly walk-through through our order and prepared one of the best salads I’ve ever had. Thank you so much for your hospitality!
