Tender Greens
I was warned about the long line and the parking, but found parking easily 2 blocks east in the public lot. There were only 4 people ahead of me when I arrived at 630 on Saturday night. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable (I have food allergies) and the Chinese Chicken Salad was wonderful- a clean and different taste from the usual oily sesame-heavy taste most places serve. My date had the seared ahi tuna which he asked to have cooked a bit more, and they did perfectly. We sat outside where there were plenty of heaters. Even if the line is out the door sometimes, I would say this place is worth the wait!

what a great place to grab a casual and healthy lunch/dinner. it seems to be fairly popular w/a long line out the door, lots of young families and couples, and a nice wraparound patio area. you order your meal, and then wait in line and watch as your food is made. a good choice of gourmet salads as well as gourmet sandwiches at moderate prices.
Dishes Tried:
Ahi Tuna Line Caught
an excellently cooked seared ahi tuna sandwich. what a deal for $10 (you also get a choice of a ‘small’ salad as a side).
Baby Spinach
for being a ‘small’ salad, you get quite a good portion size. comes w/soft cheese and almost has a spicy kick…probably all the pepper.

I love this place. The sandwiches are awesome...
I love this place. The sandwiches are awesome and come with a side salad. Just be aware that just because it’s a salad place it doesn’t mean everything is healthy! Some of the sauces and dressings are pretty rich.
Dishes Tried:
Salt & Pepper Chicken Sandwich
Love the tender chicken and flavor of this sandwich but the sauce is a bit too creamy for me.

Man, I love this place, but don't tell anyone!
I love this place, and I always tell people about it, but part of me always thinks, “Don’t tell anyone more because then it will get too busy!”
Already, the lines are out the door and people are smiling as they wait in line.
For $10.50, you can get the best salad in LA with freshly seared ahi, or wonderful steak, or chicken sliced on top. …or you can get the same meats with the best darned mashed potatoes in town (except for those wasabi mashed potatoes you find a some places).
Their soups are always fresh, the restaurant is quick, the parking is easy (city lot is free for 2 hours just around the corner), and if you love a good Arnold Palmer (tea and lemonade), they do it well.
Give it a shot …uh, just not when I’m going, okay? That way my line won’t be too long. :-)
