25 Best Salad Restaurants in Boulder

“Checking in with a collection of my experiences -- all of which have been resoundingly positive. I especially enjoy some of the appetizers and the happy hour menu, with the Brussel Sprouts & Hummus (pictured) and Calamari coming to mind. For my taste it's the perfect balance between comfort food and upscale, you can tell the menu has been well thought out and that the food items are designed to be a little more interesting and tasty than cut-and-paste bar food, while at the same time the vibe isn't overly pretentious. I think there's something to be said for knowing your lane and not pretending to be something you're not -- and Ironwood Grill does that perfectly. I always feel welcomed, I always feel relaxed, and I never leave hungry. I spent my 50th birthday and myself and all my guests (of which there were many) were well attended to and taken care of. I will continue to be back again and again and feel great about supporting this locally run enterprise.“

“I cannot say enough good things about Zeal! All items on the menu will literally blow your previous standards out of the water. Made with the highest quality ingredients, you’re sure to not only feed your desires, but also your vitality.“

“Great breakfast and great service!“

“Absolutely incredible flavors and excellent variety! I wanted more but was so full! I’m ready to come back and try other things… for dinner 🤣🤣! Had the chicken enchilada and forbidden rice with tofu! For desert… the gluten free lemon cake was Devine! HIGHLY recommend!!! ♥️“

“The pizza is pretty good, considering options in Denver. The service leaves much to be desired. The pizza arrived room temperature/cold and not even warm. On the phone manager was very apathetic and refused to make it right. He kept talking over me, even in person, and when I called him out on it he told me literally verbatim that I was a liar. Drove over to the store, returned the cold pizza and got a proper hot pizza with a side of attitude. For a $25 pizza, it should be received hot or replaced.“

“Best pizza! Thanks to you all for still being here for Boulder!“

“always great Pizza at a great price“

“i was visiting from the mid west and ate here 2 days in a row. would have been more if it was closer to estes. awesome food! i love this place!“

“The coffee is good. But what's better is the sun when it hits their giant wall of a window. It's like that scene in Chronicles of Riddick when they escape from prison and the sun beam is coming towards them, scorching the planet. You gotta get your coffee and get outta there - ONE SPEED, MY SPEED - if you wanna survive.“

“Super yummy in all ways. I had the Cobberado salad and didn’t disappoint. Fresh and refreshing!“

“I've been eating here since it opened. John and Abby are the kindest people you will ever meet, and their whole family is just lovely. the gluten free subs are safe for me here and consistently excellent. the customers really become friends of the family here, and that's not something you always get in Boulder. I can't recommend this spot enough. I'm proud to know this family and think the world of them.“

“I liked it but they need to stop calling me sir I'm not that old lol“

“Organic Sandwich Company has become my go-to spot for a quick lunch on Pearl Street. Even when they’re busy, they’re always impressively fast, which I really appreciate.

Their menu has something for everyone with both grilled and cold sandwiches, plus delicious house-made soups and breakfast toasts. My personal favorites are the Turkey bacon ham, the Ham & cheese with pickles, and the Apple Prosciutto sandwich—they’re all excellent.

One of my favorite budget-friendly options is pairing a half sandwich with a cup of soup. It’s a great lunch without spending a ton.

Just a heads-up: they do close fairly early (around 6 p.m.), so I definitely think of it as more of a breakfast or lunch spot than a dinner destination.

If you’re looking for a fresh, reliable sandwich shop in Boulder, this place is an easy 5 stars.“

“the staff here is so attentive and kind! from the moment we walked in they were patient while we decided what we wanted and were so very kind! Food and atmosphere is good as well! we'll be back!

as for some of these rude reviews.. you can't make everyone (karens) happy and they just love being miserable and treating service workers like crap!“

“Amazing food and amazing service!“

“I’m a big fan of Cava but this is the best one I’ve been to. The staff is friendly and the quality of food is excellent. I’m a vegan and they have abundant options. I highly recommend! Shout out to Oscar and Ben for their excellent customer service and inspirational attitudes. 👏“

“Excellent breakfast! Best bacon I’ve ever had and cooked perfectly! Pancakes are especially delicious with the best syrup ever!! Service was friendly and attentive! I will definitely be back!!“

“Very fresh and super tasty and healthy.“

“Superb! Great staff... delicious cuisine. Authentic! Discover a new taste bud: Umami! The Best of Colorado!“

“I had the best experience today with Krystal at the new Boulder location!! She was super sweet and had a great attitude about the 50 million modifications I made to my wrap lol. Truly the most amazing team and my Japanese BBQ wrap was amazing per usual :)

Not to mention how cute and inviting the location itself is. 10/10 across the board!“

“2026: nice place to eat after a trip to Bricks and Minifigs lol, the lord truly does work in mysterious ways.

Edit: Yellow Deli should actually contact the FTC right now and let then know Google is refusing to remove reviews which are clear hate speech against Twelve Tribes.

Deli Waffle is bomb

Old Time Gathering tunes

One star reviews are Hate Speech and should be reported as such 👍“

“We love noodles , just as good as in Green Bay wis“

“They have many choices for sandwiches and easy to customize toppings. Gluten free options available and lots of indoor seating. I had the Brisket with BBQ and made it boring with no toppings or cheese. Exactly what I was craving. Would recommend“

“I've been ordering takeout Buddha bowls for several years. they're always delicious except for the last two times. they were still delicious but half of the vegetables were missing because apparently you guys have turned into cheapskates. if you want to take out half of something, make it the rice.“

“This is a very large Panera. I'm used to the Panera's in Fort Collins and Loveland and this branch is probably twice as large. It is immaculately neat and has a stunning view of the Flatirons mountains. It's the same Panera coffee drinks and food. Panera coffee is mediocre but it's self-serve with unlimited refills. The Wi-Fi seems slightly weaker than other Panera's I've been to. The bathroom has a coded lock that you have to ask for the combination. As always the $16/month sip club is a fantastic deal giving you unlimited coffee tea and cold drinks. It's located in the 29th Street Mall right near the Target and the Whole Foods on Pearl. It's also right next to Boulder RTD bus stops.“
