50 Best Salad Restaurants near Fair Oaks

“I can't believe this place has been opened for a year and I am just now trying it. In 3 days, my wife and I have had the BLT, Chipotle Turkey Club, Gyro wrap, and Falafel wrap. Bread and Falafels are made in-house by the owner, Ramzi. Super nice guy. This is notched on as one of my favorite places already.“

“First time here and will definitely be back. Friendly staff and good food. Great environment.“

“We love the crepes here! The green salad is great with the balsamic dressing!“

“First time here and I’ll be back! Beef kabab was tender and flavorful, with house-made sauces that make the rice sing. Hospitable staff, complimentary tea if you dine in, and overall—delicious! Hot tip: order online if you’re in a rush, kababs take time. Extra bonus: it’s a family-run spot, not a chain, so every bite supports local.“

“Riley’s on Sutter isn’t just a restaurant – it’s a place overflowing with heart, soul, and genuine connection. Back in December, my family was dining there when the owner came over and shared his story behind Riley’s, a tribute to a beloved Labrador who changed his life. He took the time to truly connect with us, and we left thinking, “Wow, this guy is different. He cares.” Fast forward seven months, and I reached out to him with a heartbreaking story about our extended family’s red fox lab, Wrigley, who we lost suddenly and tragically. I hoped he could do something small to honor Wrigley, but his response overwhelmed us. He listened deeply, reacted with empathy, and went above and beyond to honor this pup in a way that brought us comfort and healing. Riley’s on Sutter has now become a special place for our family to gather and remember Wrigley. Beyond the incredible kindness of the owner, the food is phenomenal and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. We’ve interacted with several staff members, all of whom were exceptionally nice—and yes, they all seem to be dog lovers! I even joked with one employee that it must be a job requirement. Thank you to everyone at Riley’s on Sutter for creating such a meaningful and memorable place. We are forever grateful.“

“We stopped into Zinfandel California Cuisine around 1:00 PM on a Wednesday, mid-summer. The place was quiet—likely because not many people are thinking about pasta in the early afternoon heat—but that made for a calm, relaxing atmosphere. We were in and out in about 30 minutes, so service was efficient without feeling rushed.

We were initially drawn in by a big sign outside advertising half-off appetizers and pizzas, but unfortunately, that deal is no longer offered. A bit of a letdown, so definitely double-check if you’re going in for promos.

We ordered:

Kid’s cheese pizza – $10

Fusilli pasta with pesto, broccoli, carrots, and cauliflower

Fresh house bread (we had to ask for more—it was that good)

The pizza was a mixed bag: I personally didn’t love it—too cheesy and not enough dough for my liking—but my friend genuinely enjoyed it and would order it again. The pasta was fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. Watching the staff prep ingredients in the open kitchen added a nice touch of transparency and freshness to the experience.

Service stood out—our waiter was funny, friendly, and helpful. Food came out quickly, but not at the cost of quality. The bread especially deserves a shoutout—freshly baked, warm, and comforting.

Total was $28 after tax, which felt fair for the portion and quality. Overall, it’s a cozy spot with great service and a chill vibe. Probably livelier on weekends or during dinner hours, but still worth a visit—just don’t go chasing that sign out front.“

“I was so was looking to the opening of El tapitio. We moved to Paradise Ca. We would come just for my yummy Margarita and food. It was a treat. The staff is sweet and kind. Ivan is a great Manager.“

“Amazing food! Best tacos in Sacramento. Owner Shane was really great to speak with. He and his food exude passion. You must try The Char Market! 🌮“

“New Owners! Delicious Persian and Pakistani (alternate pages of menu). We had their paneer appetizer). It had big cubes of soft Pakistani cheese in a tomato based cream sauce with finely chopped ginger. Fabulous. We also enjoyed a grilled eggplant with a Persian yogurt cultured from sheep and goat milks. The butter chicken was exceptional: he grills his chicken, chops it, then adds the juicy chunks of meat into his delectable sauce. His ground beef kabob was juicy and tender. I enjoyed an inhouse, freshly made mango lassi. Wow! We have enough leftover to enjoy a shared lunch tomorrow.“

“excellent tasting quality beef, fantastic rice, fresh salad, tasty baklava, generous portions, clean kitchen, friendly people!“

“The food was very delicious.“

“Good food and service prices are kinda high. 2 burgers and 2 drinks for lunch $57.“

“omg!!!! the food is beyond delicious!!!fresh n great tasting!! welcoming and cozy atmosphere..I love the decor and the vibe...I had a albacore tuna sandwich..highly recommended I will be coming back..what a great start to my birthday weekend“

“Highly recommend this place! Food was delicious and service was amazing. Great beer, seafood and steak! 🫶 we loved it 👍“

“Great customer service from being greeted at the door to being seated by all staff. Great food. I'll be back real soon.“

“I've been going to Lido for some time, with friends and alone. Friends LOVE it!! Great place to meet! GOOD coffee. GOOD service. Nice to know Shawna. GREAT food! GREAT specials! GREAT baked goods (but have to arrive early for a selection - they go FAST). Good ambiance! Also OUTDOOR seating (limited).“

“I love their food best Italian pizza in town“

“Love it! Food tastes so good and flavorful. We came for lunch on Saturday but it took them less than 15 minutes to make all these dishes. Cucumber salad was refreshing and crunchy! Green beans were so yummy, fried rice had a lot of eggs and it’s delicious!!! Be back soon ❤️‍🔥“

“Contemporary atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food! We enjoyed a selection of craft brews, the beet salad with buratta, the Brescia wood-fired pizza, and affogato for dessert. Dining at the bar, we enjoyed a spirited conversation with Tyler. It was a delightful evening!“

“Today was my first time going to this place, there was two orders ahead of my order. Each order is made fresh when the customer comes in, not like other sandwich shop where they make the sandwich as soon as it’s called in. There’s a big difference of a sandwich made fresh and a sandwich that sits for awhile. The employee has a great attitude, the owner came in and he was polite and easy to talk to.
The atmosphere is perfect, the music is just right, the seats and tables are clean and so is the toilet area.“

“Great quality food and excellent service! Will be returning.“

“My mother and I went in on a last minute thing and we both had probably the best sandwich we’d ever had. Mine was absolutely amazing. The owner and staff were so pleasant and kept the place very clean, which is very important considering what we’re having to live through. I WOULD TOTALLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO EVERYONE. 😢“

“I recently visit Prime Gyro and Grill, and I want to share my experience. The staff, Sayed and Mohammad, are very professional and respectful. They make you feel welcome and valued.

The food is excellent—both the taste and quality are remarkable. I ordered the Philly cheesesteak, and it was wonderful! You can feel the freshness in every bite, and the flavors are truly amazing.

If you are searching for ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️halal restaurant in Sacramento or Placer County, this place is great choice. The prices are fair, considering the high quality of the food. I enjoyed my time there so much that I will definitely return.

I recommend Prime Gyro and Grill to everyone. Give it a try, and you will want to come back again!“

“Amazing Wine and very chic!!! Love it! One of my top places to go! Try it! Located in Granite Bay. CHIC! CHIC!!“

“This place has amazing customer service, and the staff are very professional. The prices are also quite affordable, especially since they include a free salad and a breadstick. That said, I found the spaghetti lacking in flavor and a bit tasteless, though the salad was quite good. I’m giving it 4 stars mainly because of the excellent customer service—otherwise, the taste doesn’t really suit me.“

“Best Tacos in Rancho Cordova!!! Fresh ingredients and friendly staff. 5 Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This is some of the best pizza I've had in Folsom. We've been going to a new place every week so I've gotten a pretty good sampling after a few months of trying other people's favorites. The crust and sauce are on point. I'm not sure if the crust would be as good if you were doing take out but it's lovely in person. This is in my top two.“

“You can't beat Cornerstone! The food is always good and hot. The servers are fun and remember you. Just like the old days.“

“Bruce loved his sandwich and the shady patio“

“Just finished dinner. Had salmon with asparagus and roasted potato. It was excellent. The service couldn't t have been better as my water glass was never empty. refilled 3 or 4 times. Would definitely recommend.“

“great service & food affordable too so glad to have a wonderful option in this area“

“Ordered some pizza for take out, it was delicious. We had to try the wings and it comes with some homemade ranch which was great, and we also tried some salad and pasta. My kids loved the chicken alfredo pasta...it was basic to me but still good. They have many other options for you to try...next time I will get a few different dishes to try out!“

“Great sandwiches good location next to Raleys in Modesto“

“I go here about once every two weeks . I love the food or just for the shake with the boba . I recommend this restaurant to neighbors who live in the neighborhood and bring people from out of the state when visiting . The atmosphere and cleanliness is impeccable . The receptionist / waitress has got to be the most unfriendliness person I have ever met in my 84 yrs of life . It is impossible to even get a friendly smile let alone words or a “thank You” . It is a big turn off. I have neighbors who will not go there because of her. It is hard to ignore .“

“Amazing pizza!! They have some great paninis as well. Happy Hour from 3-6 Monday through Friday... Check it out!!“

“NYPizza is the absolute best, not just in this town, but anywhere around. Every single time we order, the pizza is perfect: fresh, hot, and loaded with flavor. And on top of that, they don’t just have the best pizza, they’ve also got great prices. It really is the best pizza place in the area and the quality is off the charts.

What makes it even better are the people. The crew here is amazing! Friendly, fast, and they always treat you like family. You can tell they care about their food and their customers, and that makes all the difference.

This is the kind of place you look forward to coming back to, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else for pizza. NY Pizza sets the bar, and everyone else is just trying to catch up.“

“Fantastic food great beer wonderful service we will be back with friends Real hidden Gem 5 stars“

“As always, Olive Garden provided good food and lots of it for fair prices. Marissa, our server, was attentive and pleasant. The calamari appetizer, although a bit overdone, was plentiful with enough to take home. The seafood Alfredo was creamy and loaded with tender shrimp and scallops. The carbonara was delicious with shrimp and chicken. And the black tie mousse cake was luscious. We had enough left over for 2 more meals at home.“

“The burgers and side portions are large and very tasty, good selection of beer. I’ve lived in the area for 43 years and visit a couple times a year, however not sure if I’ll be going back, $75 for my wife and I to have burgers and a beer is a little ridiculous. Burgers and Brew on R St, has Niman Ranch Beef and the bacon jalapeño burgers are $3.50 less than a regular burger at Dukes. I want to support local but $21 burgers and $10 beers….not the go to.“

“This was my first time going to sourdough company and I absolutely loved it!!! It has so much flavor and is fresh. This sandwich shop is everything compared to all the other companies out there. Didn’t make me feel like crap after eating it and the customer service was so friendly. You will definitely catch me coming here every time I go to the mall!!!“

“The pizza is pretty good. Better than the majority these days. Atmosphere is a hole in the wall local neighborhood favorite. Prices are a bit high so I'd expect more from the pizza but I can't honestly give it a 4 as it's a solid 4.5. Service was great and welcoming. The pizza balls were delicious. Don't eat them cold as they taste like bread instead of pizza dough. If I can eat a cold pizza the next day, then it's somewhere I'll come back. The pizza was good the next day but the pizza balls weren't good like they were when they were hot. Overall a good pizza and I'll probably be back.“

“Two days ago was in the store with my husband Michael - I echo his praise and add the following comments:

Always allowed to use the restroom so don’t know what the one guy on Yelp is complaining about. It is well documented that the store closes at 8pm, and on this night, they didn’t rush us out even though we were still eating at 8pm. They let us stay while they cleaned the store for the night so we could finish eating. My husband wanted a meatball sandwich. Thank goodness the employee let us know that at that time of night, right before closing, the meatballs were frozen so my husband can change his mind. The meatballs during the day probably have the chance to marinade with the sauce…they would taste awful if used frozen. As for hygiene, the store is immaculate AND they wash their hands before handling food. I even saw gloves in use. One lady on Yelp complained about people from the Middle East. The absolute irrelevance of national origin, and the nature of her comments, suggests racism. If by Middle East she is trying to infer Muslim religion, then she should understand how important being a good host is to a Muslim…I have NEVER been treated so well as I am treating by Muslims while on travel. With regard to the two men I always see on duty at the store, one may be a Muslim (irrelevant, if he is) but I doubt the other is a Muslim; he wears his hair like he is a Sikh (not Muslim) which would suggest he is from Punjab, the north of India, which is in South Asia, not the Middle East. This potential Punjabi gentleman is very friendly to me and my husband, every visit.

When I saw the store is immaculate, I mean spotless. the table and floors, even behind the counter, are always clean, the trash in the bin not overflowing, and there are no bad smells. I am posting this on Google because the review on Yelp was so unfair. This place, the food, and these people are great. We drive a considerable distance just to order food with them.“

“Honest truth - this was my first Beach Hut Deli (BHD) experience. My wife insisted on lunch to go. Beautiful location. Clean restaurant and the restaurant was very cool and comfortable with outside temperatures close to 100 degrees! The BHD had plenty of workers taking orders, preparing great sandwiches, being amazing with customers, smiling, and I really enjoyed the ambiance. I ordered the Marsey Nachos, The High Tide sandwich, and The Malibu. WOW! Folks, these sandwiches were as big as any meal I've ever had. So much value for the money ?. Please take yourself and family to the BHD on Eureka Road, Roseville, California. Next time, my wife and me are sharing a sandwich. I think I'm in a food coma...soooo good! ?“

“Surfin Bird sandwich is delicious. I highly recommend anything on their menu. Looking forward to trying other items soon. You won’t be disappointed. :)“

“The best cheesesteak!! They threw some bacon on the cheesesteak and I was in heaven.“

“Great Indian fusion pizza. Save yourself some money and call in your order rather then using their website since it adds a bit more to the cost due to third party processing. This tip was given to us by them when we picked up our pizzas. Very friendly staff, quick service, great food. Highly recommended.“

“great pho, awesome service..will be returning to try more. highly suggest egg roll deluxe“

“Delicious hot pastrami sandwich 😋“

“Kevin was awesome! He made sure our food was out on a timely manner and made us feel right at home. He was friendly and had a warm sincere smile.
He treated the employees with respect and kindness. It seemed like they enjoyed working together.
Thank you Kevin and your team!
I“
