50 Best Salad Restaurants near Hercules

“This is the best Thai restaurant in the East Bay!! Their dishes are truly a form of art! You can tell they put so much love into their dishes, and it tasted AMAZING. We always order the papaya salad (Thai style, but there's also a Laos style!) and the fried rice. The pad Thai is also amazing! 10/10“

“Fresh, delicious vegan food at very reasonable prices! You choose from a menu of 5-6 items to make your plate ( unless you get the option that includes everything!) The food here is simple and delicious, incorporating South Asian flavors, and you feel great afterwards. Mostly gluten-free, including the desserts, and the service is friendly, kind, thoughtful.“

“I had heard great things about Fava and their ex Chez Panisse chefs. I got to try it for the first time. It was even better than I thought it would be. I got the lamb sandwich (with cabbage, yogurt sauce, and fresh herbs like Persian sabzi, in a lavash like wrap that they make themselves.) I also got some lentil and kale soup with yogurt. So yummy. It took me back home to Iran. So good!“

“What a delicious and delightful and beautiful treasure. The food is absolutely tantalizing. I mean everything is oh so good. I can’t wait to eat here again. Definitely gonna take home some loaded lamb fries. The platters…the sparkling lemonade…the lentil soup…I could go on and on. Just a pleasant surprise. Mmm mm m.“

“Incredibly nice people, and great food. Got the Chicken on the Sticks and I can definitely tell why they are known for this. It’s incredibly delicious and I’ll definitely be eating here again. Also great pricing and a good variety of choices, but not too many where you get lost in their selection.“

“Delicious!!! I had the veggie panini with a side salad and my daughter had the mozzarella and tomato panini. The bread was perfectly cooked and crispy, both sandwiches were so tasty and the salad had a light refreshing dressing on it. The service was excellent, very friendly and quick. Great little place to eat, they have a nice selection of healthy salads, paninis, juice and smoothies. Highly recommend!“

“Pizza Twist is absolutely fantastic! I have a strict gluten allergy, and Mani (the owner) went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. He was incredibly accommodating, attentive, and made me feel safe and confident about enjoying my meal. The gluten-free pizza was delicious, fresh, and flavorful—honestly one of the best I’ve had. It’s rare to find a place that truly cares about dietary restrictions while still delivering amazing taste. I can’t recommend Pizza Twist enough, both for the food and the outstanding customer service. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Jen and Cecy and the team at Cafe Soleil catered our wedding at the Brazilian Room, and it was a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely delicious, they took care of *everything* in the venue, and they were truly a joy to work with. Cecy was very responsive, professional, and patient with our many questions and requests. During the reception, the staff was wonderful with the passed appetizers and the bar, and the servers took care of us (bride and groom) with special attention. At the end of the evening, once our guests were done with the bar, the bartender even came out on the dance floor to teach us a line dance. :-) Jen is a treasure: her professionalism is suffused with genuine warmth, and we felt well taken care of from the very beginning of the process. And did I mention the food was amazing?“

“Been seeing Pinole pizza for a while now in our area. Finally decided to get out and go check it out.
This pizza is one of the best pizzas I ever tasted. The owner is really cool. Got a great vibe in the store and always has fresh ingredients. We will definitely be supporting the store in the future.
They also own a store in Richmond, which I never heard about.
After talking to the guy going back-and-forth in conversation found out that he also could cook a mean smash burger also.“

“So glad to find out they reopened after being closed a while during the pandemic. Currently you have to pre-order a day in advance for pickup so it takes a little planning but so worth it.Their fried chicken is so crispy. I ordered it with waffle fries and they say they only fire up the fries just before your pickup time so that they're fresh. When I went to pick up my order, they let me know it would just be a few minutes because the fries were finishing and when he came out with my order, he said he accidentally made the salad but included both the fries and salad and threw in a vanilla pudding. Everything was so delicious. Even the bonus pudding had flecks of vanilla bean and tasted so much better than the instant stuff. The chicken and fries were enough for 2 meals.“

“Friendly staff🥰, best bagel in the states🥯“

“The food is delicious, the fritters had years of not eating them were delicious [Original] La comida está deliciosa los buñuelos tenia años de no comerlos estaban deliciosos“

“Dog & mom in wheelchair friendly. Great sliders & house made pickles.“

“Lovely people and awesome coffee. My favorite is the Tumeric Late. Living Ketovore, I get it made with half and half, which cuts the carbs way down, and turns it into a meal, practically. Love it!!! ❤☕“

“I’ve been to several Nick the Greek locations, but the one in Pinole truly stands out. From the moment I walked in, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome (Thank you to the owner Sarina!). They were attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect throughout my visit.

The food here is on another level compared to the other locations I’ve tried—fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The gyro was packed with juicy meat, the pita was warm and soft, and the sauces had that authentic taste you hope for in Greek food. Everything tasted like it was made with extra care. Very rarely do you see an Owner of a brand the size of nick the greek actually in the store and taking care of customers!! It's fantastic.

Amazing food, even better service—I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Really great food. Cool building. The Classic Burger was Classic. Friendly staff. 5 star!“

“Carne pizza is highly recommended! Zachery’s special was ok. We ordered thin pizza and Happened to add anchovies, whole pizza became so so salty that we could barely eat. So be careful with toppings. But we finished the entire carne, it was so so good.“

“This restaurant is very good. The galbi was excellent so was the quality of the fish especially the sashimi. My s was delicious as well I ordered the rainbow roll I recommend it. Do not put Ponzi sauce on anything just have the straight fish with wasabi Ginger if I could give them six stars I would. Hope it stays the same quality. The food servers were great, both Yang, and Mia gave me exemplary service.“

“You know it's good when my 12yr old grandson eats all his spicy noodles. Plenty of food, no skimping, staff is wonderful. We're going to try the Concord location next. Same cook there that was in Southampton and he's great!“

“Great views and good food“

“Tasty less fattening food. Good coffee - delish food“

“Olive Garden is my go-to for a no-fuss, comforting meal. You just can't beat starting with those warm, pillowy breadsticks—I could honestly make a meal of them alone! The unlimited soup and salad is the perfect sidekick, and I always gravitate toward the creamy Fettuccine Alfredo. It’s the kind of place where you know exactly what you’re getting: generous portions, friendly service, and a satisfying meal every time. It’s not about being fancy; it's about a reliable and enjoyable experience.“

“First time eating here this morning as we were passing through town and found this place on Yelp. Our breakfast was great! I loved the crab omelette and the bacon fried rice. My wife’s breakfast was very good also. She usually doesn’t like restaurants scrabbled eggs but these were excellent and so was her French toast. Staff were very friendly too! I just wish this place was in our hometown!“

“yes I do the food was good and they place. was friendly and ask for strong drinks on request“

“I have been a regular Tilden golfer since 2019 (especially on Tuesday nights...when the real pros come out!). The recent opening of The Overlook has been a fantastic addition to the course. They did a great job with the drink selection, with lots of local beers on tap. The outdoor space is so nice, with heat lamps and a fire pit. Also, if you haven't been out to Tilden before, you will love the views and serenity out there. It reminds me of getting a drink at the top of a ski resort in Tahoe. Bravo Tilden!“

“Best Kept Secret in the Bay! I stumbled across this place in super charming Point Richmond and grabbed one of their personal sized pizzas for lunch. Surprisingly high quality and delicious. I went back the next day for one of their toasted sub sandwiches, the meatball sub. Fresh ingredients, made to order, DELICIOUS. I’ve been back twice more in the past week to try more their subs and each one has been better than the last. My two favorites are “The Crux” (bbq pulled pork) and the “Chicken Pesto.” Overall I’m super impressed. Top quality ingredients, super friendly staff, nice new renovations. This is my new top favorite restaurant in Point Richmond. Highly recommended.“

“I love their chopped salad and their lemon bundt cake!“

“I never found the Golf Course meeting people is different since I forgot half of the amount of difference Vallejo Development has been since I never made it“

“Delicious food. Great to find lovely outdoor seating.“

“We live in this neighborhood and if you know the North Shattuck and Northbrae Neighborhoods, there is no shortage of walkable dining. We just love Jerusalem Organic Kitchen for a consistently well prepared meal, friendly staff, and really good ingredients! They serve a quick, casual, healthy, and absolutely delicious meal. Everything we have tried is great with balanced seasonings. My personal favorite is the Shawarma Platter. Don't miss the perfectly prepared salmon platter with a generous serving of salmon that won't set you back an arm and a leg. The salad with chicken shawarma on top is great too. And they, of course, prepare a great middle eastern platter and falafel platter. And if all you want is a sandwich or burger - you won't be disappointed. Get the idea? We like their food and for good reason - they don't try to be all things to all people - they do middle eastern cuisine and do it really well. Try it - you'll like it!“

“This was our first time here, and everything we ordered was delicious. My daughter had the beef ravioli, which was perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. I ordered a Caesar salad, and it was fresh and tasty. My son got the Margherita pizza, and we all enjoyed it. The staff was very friendly and patient while we placed our order, and they made us feel welcome. We’ll definitely be coming back to try more dishes!“

“I enjoyed a delicious Pastrami & Turkey club sandwich Rosemary and Olive oil chips it came with a side salad I chose fresh fruit. I’ll be back and let me add the sandwich was so meaty I couldn’t finish it all.“

“Food was yummy, service was great, vibe was chill“

“Delicious but somewhat expensive burgers in the Gourmet Ghetto that is in North Berkeley. Barneys is a small chain of hamburger restaurants that are primarily in the Oakland Berkeley area. We didn't know, but now we do.

For perspective, a Barneys burger costs $17.50, but it's a really good burger. Burgers are cooked to order with very good quality beef. Fries, onion rings, and other sides are ordered separately. Whereas the burgers were excellent, the onion rings and fried vegetables (their version of tempura) were on the oily side. Keep this in mind.

Their menu is expansive, and they offer salads and other items. We stuck to the burgers.

Service is friendly and efficient. Parking can be challenging, but there are metered spaces about a block away near Safeway.

The restaurant is clean and well maintained. The shiny sign out front gives a slight indication of the pride they take in the establishment... or maybe we're just being too generous.

In any case, on a nice day, try to snag a table on the patio and bite into a juicy, well crafted burger..all while soaking in the liberal elite vibe of North Berkeley It's a nice experience.“

“First time trying Quiznos and it was so good! Super yummy, super fresh, and fantastic service. There was a lunch rush and only one guy behind the counter and he handled us all quick and easy, and was super pleasant the whole time. I will absolutely be coming back.“

“Great Take and Bakes! Amazing cookies! Genuine Goodness is a special gem in the little town of Orinda.“

I've never had an employee make me feel so good,she really made our day,much love and respect linda!“

“food is always great quality! good customer service and they were really nice about my special customizations“

“Ramen restaurants are popping up everywhere nowadays! Yummy house is good and the prices are competitive with other ramen restaurants. I had the vegetable ramen and it appears to be the only ramen dish that don't use pork broth. For $12.99 it was a tasty bowl of portions. I also had the salmon tuna poke and that was a very tasty treat that I took to go and ate it at home while watching Fubar on Netflix, lol. Sorry, i forgot to take a picture of the ramen bowl. ?“

“What can I say you guys rock!!! This is just like the pizza 🍕 I grew up with I came in because I hadn’t eaten all day and I was hungry. You’re pizza hit the spot I will definitely come back. The woman who took our order was very friendly thanks for making my day“

“Food delicious our server Bret is a nice person“

“Years have gone by since I've been there and I've just went there recently. I am changing my review. The first time I stopped going is because I got lousy service and not very good food. The food might taste better if we had better service“

“One of my favorite dining places! Strongly recommended to anyone looking for a healthy eat.“

“Was in desperate need of a good salad and Nick’s delivered. I got the prasini salad and added tomatoes. The lemony dressing is really light and brightly flavored with just the right amount of lemon. The romaine lettuce was all super crisp.

Added a side of fries which were the perfect texture and tossed in Greek herbs.“
