Salata — Restaurant in Texas

I'm impressed. My friend & I had seen something about a salad bar restaurant "opening soon" & kept an eye out. We finally got to stop by a cpl months later on the way back from a Dr. appt, expecting a regular old walk up, grab & gobble with the usual assortment of offerings found at the typical restaurant salad bar.

Boy were we wrong.

They have things I've never heard of. If you are a vegan, you can eat. If you love meat, you can eat. If you have special dietary needs, they will try to accommodate you. If you're gluten free, dairy free, nut free, you can eat. And every single item (over 60?) is FRESH. Portions are generous, and you can have as much or as little as you wish of each item.

It's amazingly clean. Everywhere. Counters are immaculate. Don't know abt the men's room, but the Ladie's is spotless, large & accommodates the disabled as far as I could tell. (Large, enough room next to toilet for transfer, long wall bar). The only issue my friend had was that there are 2 doors to access restroom, and they're both fairly heavy.

There's also a small counter with USB/AC outlets! Staff is friendly & helpful.

It does get on the expensive side, generally around 11-ish dollars for a large salad with nothing else extra, but can be even more expensive with a drink, soup, or protein add-ons. That just means I don't go every day.

But when I want the best salad I can...

Had a horrible experience and it will be hard to go back. We found live bugs in the salad mix. We ordered 2 salads and 1 wrap and we had to toss it all after the experience. When we complained we were asked to provide a photo which I did but they told me that because the photo was not in the food and I had taken the bug out and put it on a napkin that there was not much they could do. So we threw $60 and practically were told...
