50 Best Salad Restaurants near San Fernando

“It seems I may have had a bit of a mixed experience at this restaurant. As a huge fan of homemade tamales, I was really looking forward to trying the Tamale Bowl. However, it didn’t quite match my expectations. I had envisioned something similar to a Chipotle-style bowl, but instead received a dish that felt more like a fresh, health-inspired bowl filled with an abundance of veggies.\nOn the positive side, my sister's Chili Relleno looked absolutely delicious and definitely caught my eye! In hindsight, I might have been better off choosing that or sticking with the classic tamales. Overall, while I didn't find what I was hoping for, I can appreciate the emphasis on fresh ingredients. I may give this place another shot to explore more of the menu!“

“Best menudos and other foods Have never had a bad meal. I’ll time goodnesses“

“Has a lot of potential. The sandwich ingredients are great, overall concept is better than other places. The taste is mostly there but overpowered by the unnecessarily massive amounts of sauce that squirts out and drips everywhere when you have a bite. Maybe they were going for juicy but it was too much. I used about five napkins cleaning up.

Opinions differ on how much sauce is good but I'd say the vast majority of people would agree. The owner should test his own food and come up with a slightly different ratio of sauce.

I will still go back and try something else but I'll make sure to request slightly less sauce.“

“Fabulous fresh salad, sandwiches“

“Absolutely love this place! My boyfriend and I live in the area and we love being able to walk to places in our neighborhood. This is definitely a new favorite spot! I rarely write reviews but I had to share my great experience to support this business. The food is fresh and delicious and the staff is very kind.
We ordered the Rainbow and the Spicy Yellowtail rolls for pick up orders through their online website, had a lovely sunset walk during Golden Hour to and from there, and the service was timely and efficient. When we got back home the food was packaged and presented beautifully and it kept well. We thoroughly enjoyed this whole experience and will be happy to order again soon! We look forward to dining in person there as well. Definitely find out for yourself and enjoy this awesome little gem!
Thank you to the entire staff for bringing this spot into the NoHo Arts District!“

“Was thrilled to find a place with so many vegan and vegetarian options for a bunch of new food I've never tried before! We asked for some recommendations and the ladies explained what each dish was and offered samples. In the end, we went with the Armenian potato salad, mujadara, itch / eech, and lahmajun - all were tasty, but the eech was my favorite. Looking forward to trying more!“

“Cute little chain-type spot that offers lots of fresh, clean, healthy food. Has soup and salad that tasted like we made it at home. No weird fillers or packaged flavours. Was just what we needed after a sudden airline cancellation and chilly weather. Clean spot with big enough tables to work or bring a little game (like we did). Sweet employees. Great amount of parking in its own lot.“

“Awesome food and fantastic customer service.
Humberto went out of his way to make sure my catering order was complete and assisted me in loading it all my vehicle.

Vegetarian options: Falafel, Hummus, salads and rice
are good options.

Dietary restrictions: Good for vegetarians

Parking: Fairly large complex for parking

Wheelchair accessibility: Parking lot level and easy access“

“I didn t even know it existed until it showed up on Postmates Everything was super yummy! GP Cobb salad and sweet potato soup with crunchy Brussels yum! Savor the dark chocolate brownie with sea salt And the maple dijon vinaigrette Now that will create a craving! Glad to have found it Reliable choice!“

“The selection of vegetables, salad, meat chips and wraps are what sold me!! Very healthy and tasty! They also have drinks without sugar!!“

“I stopped in to try the coffee and check out the shop. The coffee itself was good and they had some decent food options. The atmosphere is nice, nothing too over the top. Lot of folks on their laptops, but not overly crowded. The employees were super friendly and courteous.

Overall a good experience.“

“I have searched this town for the perfect wood fire style margherita pizza. I ordered the Napoletana and it is AMAZING. We also got a pepperoni and it's delicious too! Vincenzos is too much crust and too greasy in the middle. Toppers is way too expensive and our order was never accurate. The Road is close by, the food is delicious and they have great prices. Win win win.“

“This Bakery is Beyond amazing 👏 😍 They make fresh fruit smoothies :^) they have multiple milk options 😋 They offer fresh juices that are healthy, yet delicious. They have delicious sandwiches. Their homemade cookies are amazing 👏 They go above and beyond to make you feel at home 🏡 they have AC and it's comfortable. The bathroom was very clean and provides a sound blocking experience. I will definitely be coming back. 😌 Thank you all for providing us a healthy energizing breakfast!“

“First restaurant I ate in 1982 and the bbq is still great.“

“Great Sushi! Top Quality!“

“my Go To restaurant always good food good service good time great outside patio“

“Muy buena atención al cliente 💯 y muy rica la comida y muy buen precio 🤑🤑🇭🇳🇭🇳 Saludes a todos los catrachos desde California 🇭🇳“

“I found this place across from my hotel. I ended up coming here three nights in a row. Everything was so delicious. The homemade Beef rib ravioli, Spaghetti with tiger shrimp in spicy tomato sauce ,and ribeye were the main dishes I had. Very very good. I loved the cheese cake for dessert. Their service and atmosphere is fantastic. The staff were very friendly and happy to see me back. I may come back again tomorrow.“

“This place shares the parking lot with a gas station has a pretty sufficient of parking (by the alley, the far corner of the gas station or directly in front of the restaurant). It’s very clean inside, well-designed, and they always play pretty good music. The girl who works at the front is very friendly (and also good looking) and the food itself is fantastic. Ever since Zest restaurant closed down, I tried to find something good and, after having tried 6 different locations around the area, finally settled with this one as it seems to be the best one out of all of them!“

“This establishment excels not only in culinary excellence, consistent with high-quality venues, but also in its exceptional customer service. The staff, from the cash register to the kitchen, are deeply committed to customer satisfaction, demonstrating genuine care for customer comfort and overall experience. This place exemplifies first-class customer service coupled with outstanding cuisine.“

“Honestly very very nice people working at this place. They open at 11 but I was there at 9 am. I requested them if I can use their restroom? They allowed. I requested them to charge me for a sandwich, they refused. Usually in California they do not allow non customers to use restrooms with many many different excuses.“

“A wonderful place! We ordered takeout for dinner, and everything was top-notch. The portions were generous, the food was delicious, and the service was great. The menu variety was impressive, with something for everyone. The prices are justified by the quality, and we were very satisfied. It’s a great spot to enjoy a good meal. We’ll definitely be back!“

“My assistant orders, my lunch and or dinner here every day, and it’s the highlight of my day. The food is consistently delicious, with a menu that offers just the right balance between variety and comfort. Whether I’m in the mood for something light or hearty, they have it all.

The staff is always welcoming and remembers my usual order, making me feel like a valued customer. The service is quick, which is perfect for my day, yet the quality is never compromised.

The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for a quick bite or a relaxing break. And the cleanliness? Spotless every time.

If you’re looking for a reliable and tasty spot for lunch, this place is a must-visit!“

“Excellent, very focused, lovely people working very hard here to please their guests. I want to thank my fellow restaurant folks who work so hard to get our orders correct.“

“To the wonderful owner and staff at [Healthyca],
I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for your exceptional honesty and kindness. I was distraught when I realized I had left my bag behind, especially considering the valuable contents inside. When I called, your team not only located my bag but also ensured its safekeeping without compromising my privacy. Your integrity and commitment to customer service are truly inspiring. I am incredibly grateful for your actions and want you to know that your kindness will not be forgotten.
With sincere appreciation,“

“Excellent food and service!! Fresh hot quiet. Very friendly attentive staff!“

“Yes I highly recommend the food, the service, and atmosphere.“

“They have great quality products and they are very friendly“

“Swung by this little ol establishment with 3 others on a blistering Sunday afternoon and what a surprise Thai Victory was! I now understand why TV has received the voluminous amount of 5 stars. Coming from Thai Town, TV can really be ranked amongst the gr10s.

Inside - 4/5
Very cozy and intimate with only a handful of tables. Bunch of Thai decor around the restaurant. And of course a random TV and hanging Xbox hah.

Service - 5/5
This sm0l establishment is run by the nicest (I assume) couple. They checked on us often and offered recommendations for the different dishes (e.g., spice, rice vs noodles). They also gave us a couple Thai tea's on the house! Very refreshing during this heat wave.

Food - 5/5
Now I'll be honest with the non-lunch special value of at least ~$14-17 a plate, I was worried that we would not have enough food and/or they quality would not be great. Alas, I was gratefully mistaken. This day we got Chicken Pad Thai, fried Eggplant, Roasted Duck Basil and Garlic Basil Tofu. Each dish was made with fresh ingredients, wasn't overly cooked or oily and was filling. Much like I said above, TV could stand on it's own Thai Town. But, why compete with so many other restaurants when you can capitalize in NOHO? My personal favorite dish was the roasted duck. The duck was crispy and was on a bed of Chinese broccoli. All dishes were distinct, but complimentary. Also we had some Thai coffees and man did it wake us up (and also sent us to the bathroom hah).

TL;DR
Overall 5/5
- Sm0l cozy hole in the wall with a handful of tables
- Small lot, plus plenty of street parking
- Lunch specials will be your best deal
- GR10 service
- Recommend Thai coffee, Thai Tea, Pad Thai, Eggplant, Roasted Duck Basil, and Garlic Basil Tofu

“Today I gotta cheese kottu and fusion pizza. Hands down one of the best pizza we ever had , the fusion devil chicken pizza is fuego ,out of the world , so cheesy and full of flavors 10/10
Kottu 6/10
?? ?? we are coming back again ….“

“By far, the best pizza around, and super-nice owner and employees. Have recommended Napoli's to every local Facebook group I belong to.“

“My son & gf say the burgers are good. You know the bbq is good. I went for chicken in a lemon garlic sauce & found it quite delicious. Nutty coleslaw a good change from sweet creamy standard coleslaws. Sautéed veggies were a tasty healthy filler.“

“Got there right at closing time with our online order mistakenly scheduled for the next day, and manager Juan and server Vanessa could not have been more gracious and professional in how they handled the situation. They rallied to make sure I got the wrap I ordered for my son, and I am extremely grateful for the team taking the time to make him a delicious meal even after all the food was put away for the night. Kudos and thank you!“

“I’ve had these sandwiches and gone to this sandwich shop for a while now. I’ve never had an unpleasant experience (this place might have given me food poisoning before but it’s unlikely, because my whole family had these sandwiches and had no effect, but that only happened once) if you are looking for a good Italian, check out this place. The actual restaurant is quite small, but I usually order from the app. This place is wow. Just amazing. Please check this place out. It will not disappoint.“

“Always amazing!! I’ve been devouring the meatball sub with all to toppings for almost 60 years. We live in Sacramento & I plan my drive through LA around a must have sub every time ❤️👍“

“food was fresh . sushi chefs good. nice variety.“

“I just moved to this area and Veggie Grill is definitely a great option. Been here twice now. Huge portions and great flavors. Try the cookies! I dont know how it was before Next Level bought them, but i loved Next Level in Austin!! Also they have restrooms and free parking!“

“Best Thai food in the West Valley in my Opinion“

“It's one of my favorite places in all of SCV! The staff are all so friendly, and the dining area is always clean! Good drink options, great food options, and amazing prices! Especially if you get the lunch special combo. The option to do split protein type and split rice/ vegetables is so nice to mix up your meal. You can also order any of the proteins over a salad, which is a great opportunity. My go-to is hands down the half chicken and half beef with half white rice and half steamed veggies. They have good gyoza too, and all my friends say the sushi is fantastic. I only wish there were more locations!

Parking: Large parking lot, but busy during lunch and dinner hours“

“Great food service and the atmosphere was wonderful.“

“They serve Northern Thai food (Nam Prik Ong and Sai Ua). They also have Larb Northern style. It’s not on the menu, however, you could request it.“

“Extremely friendly staff. Amazing service. PHENOMENAL FOOD and homemade sangria. Simply, the best.“

“Was my first time visiting Healthnut. I enjoyed a fresh delicious tuna sandwich on Multigrain bread! So refreshing to find a sandwich different from the usual places. The service was great and the location was very clean, well kept. I will definitely return!“

“Great, creative menu and very personal focused service. Jose and his team are amazing“

“I recommend this place it has delicious food and the chef cook’s your food fast and you won’t regret it!! A must try!!“

“Consistent food. Friendly, efficient service. Very reasonable prices for amount of food. Many options. Delivers. Good catering menu.

Vegetarian options: There are multiple vegetarian options: multiple pastas, salad, and pizza. The Florentine lasagna is particularly tasty, especially with added marinara sauce.

The kitchen is small, so there may be non-veg food in the vicinity of your food.

Dietary restrictions: Cheese is omnipresent; it is an Italian place. I don't believe there is a cheese substitute available.

Parking: It is easy to call in orders in advance for pick up or eating there.

I have visited this place for 20 years. The food has been consistent over time in terms of quality.

I have used LA Lasagna for catering for groups of CSUN students and faculty/staff many times to good reviews.

This is a neighborhood restaurant with good prices, easy parking, pick up, and delivery.

The marinara sauce needs more garlic for me, but there is garlic, red peppers, and Parmesan cheese in shaker bottles.

The fountain sodas offered are Coke products. They also have other cans/2 liter bottles. I don't believe there is beer or wine.

The atmosphere is storefront bright with little ambience, but is clean with friendly service, and accurate orders provided.

I now live 50+ miles away and often stop by when I'm in the SFV near CSUN.

Kid-friendliness: The tables are close together, and the area open, so no mobile toddlers. Otherwise, mellow kids are fine here. If you have fidgeters, get your food to go or delivered for everyone 's sake.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access for users of wheel chairs or other mobility devices.“

“Pizza here is great. I believe I got the Pepperoni Express (not sure if that was the name) and a side salad. The pizza had 2 different types of pepperoni, pineapple, and jalapeños. Everything tasted good. When you go to the salad bar, make sure u get the maple salad dressing.“

“Went to the habit on golden valley clean area friendly staff I was helped by this girl name Perla she greeted me as I walk in she was very helpful with the menu very friendly loved her attitude“
