Salata — Restaurant in Cibolo

I’m a longtime fan of this salad chain and frequent several of their other locations regularly — the fresh ingredients, thoughtful combinations, and overall concept are usually top-tier.

That said, my recent experience at the new location left a bit to be desired. I ordered the pre-selected Grilled Tofu with Herb Glaze salad, but there seemed to be a lot of confusion among the line staff about what the bowl actually included. I ended up speaking with four different team members, all of whom were unsure of the ingredients and struggled to reference the menu board or a guide. I had to repeatedly ask them to check the cheat sheet or poster for clarity.

I’m so glad Salata opened in Cibolo! It’s great to have more healthy options available. We went on a Friday afternoon and it wasn’t crazy busy at all.

WELL DONE! The portion sizes available were good. All the salad options, including bases, toppings and extras, were “fantastically overwhelming” and I’m so glad. We wouldn’t finish our regular sized salads so we took them home for later. Definitely planning on...

If you’re looking for a fresh and healthy dining option in Cibolo, the new Salata is a must-visit! I stopped by recently and was thoroughly impressed with the entire experience. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, offering a wide variety of toppings and proteins to customize the perfect salad or wrap.

Service was fast and efficient, which made it a great option for a quick lunch or dinner without sacrificing quality. The restaurant was spotless, and I appreciated how well-maintained everything was, even during busy hours. What stood out most was the owner’s presence—greeting guests with a warm welcome and even taking the time to clean tables and check in with customers. That level of care really shows they’re committed to making this location a success.

Highly recommend checking it out if you’re in the area and want something fresh, fast,...
