Interesting but limited concept. There was nothing wrong at all here but I struggle to see why folks might go out of their way to visit. However, from the decor to the very name I am clearly not the target demographic. The light green interior is decorated with accolades for the founder and the restaurant concept. You order and are given a number. The staff was to their credit extremely friendly. I went with the BLT with the sassy scotty and a egg salad scoop on the side. They have about 12 different chicken or egg salad combos (tuna too I think) you can do some scoops with bread to go with it or like me get a sandwich white, wheat, or croissant rolls. With a drink it's going to be about a 13 to 14 buck lunch which for me is just alot for chicken salad. The seating is mostly high backed booths and while ultra comfortable means during lunch rush there are far more folks than seats. As far as the food goes the egg salad was top notch but the sassy scotty was a little strong for the BLT, I'd do that one with the egg salad next time. It certainly didn't help that the bacon was thin and limp and the bread similar to off the shelf loaves at Kroger. One nice surprise though was a delicious cookie. But honestly it was not high quality food to me, worth this price point. Chicken salad sandwiches are often one of of the cheaper things on the menu at most places. Here it's the same price as many premium sandwiches and I think it's just not a dish that can be its own star of the menu at a...
Read moreToday for the first time, I decided to eat at salad chick. I ordered my food during my lunch break, which is only an hour long. I was waiting for my order for 25 minutes. Which was running over into the end of my break. I asked for a refund due to my break being over and I needed to get back to my job. The manager was on the line for filling orders for lunch. She proceeded to tell her employee to tell me that she cannot refund me my money until she is done fulfilling the orders on the line, this manager knows that she is the only person that can give a refund. And still, I did not get my refund. a kind customer that was standing behind me kindly suggested that she can drop off my food for me so that I can return to work. My first experience with salad chicks, and this is my last experience with salad chicks. I have never endure such horrible customer service from a manager in my...
Read moreMy childhood fear of mom's homemade or Wal-Mart deli chicken salad haunted me for years, but Chicken Salad Chick was just the right food therapy to cure a lifetime of predisposition to a deli classic.
The classic chicken salad here contains such finely minced celery that I couldn't tell it was there. I always wanted a smoother chicken salad without too many extra chunky, weird textures and flavors interrupting. I had a scoop on an very fresh and crisp salad with lemonade. It wasn't too heavy, but definitely a filling lunch.
The variety and execution is top-notch and if you think you don't like chicken salad, I think you actually do but you're like me. You never had a good one. I can't wait to go back and try more varieties of chicken salad on a BLT, and that dang loaded...
