There’s nuts in the blondies and there is no warning on the website or the packaging. All blondies do not consist of nuts which is why I was not expecting them. Luckily I am not allergic but this is dangerous. I also hate nuts.

Awesome service will be back

Food is always fresh and service is fast and professional. It gets packed during lunch time, with a relatively long line that moves quite fast. Ventilation isn't great, so you may leave the restaurant with your clothes smelling like food.

With its wide selection of fresh ingredients for salads, grain bowls, and sandwiches, Sweet Leaf is the perfect spot for a healthy and convenient weekday lunch. Similar to other fast-casual salad places like Sweetgreen or Chopt, you can either choose from their chef-curated selections or build your own. A few favorites from their curated menu are the Tofu Tango (basically a vegetarian take on a harvest bowl with roasted tofu, sweet potatoes, quinoa, romaine, kale, apples, goat cheese, and a balsamic vinaigrette) and the Salmon + Wild Farro Bowl (replacing the farro with quinoa if you're gluten-free).They have a decent selection of vegetarian mains, including their roasted tofu and baked falafel. Their falafel is by no means traditional, as it has a much softer outer shell, but it's a tasty plant-based addition to your bowl. I also love adding their roasted vegetables (zucchini, yellow squash, red peppers) and, if available, roasted brussel sprouts with pear.If you're looking for a side to pair with your new salad or grain bowl or sandwich, Sweet Leaf has a decent selection of chips and baked goodies (mostly different variations of brownies and cookies), as well as warm soups and fresh smoothies. Just like the rest of their menu, you can either choose from a curated selection of smoothies or make your own concoction. I'm a big fan of their Berry Blanco (blueberries, coconut, granola) and Green Cure (strawberry, avocado, kale). Their smoothies are on the sweeter end, which I didn't love, but they're still delicious and a great mid-day pick-me-up!With its wide selection of bowls, sandwiches, and snacks, as well as its downtown DC location, Sweet Leaf is a convenient spot to drop by and pick up lunch in the middle of the workday. The service is friendly and efficient, and you can also order online to make your pick-up process a bit quicker (and, if you're anything like me, so you don't have to feel bad about being indecisive). They do have a couple of tables inside, as well as one or two outside, but it's generally pretty crowded and loud.

Service was very good even though it was busy. Very pleasant and took time to explain what is on the menu. F First timer will go back when I have a chance to go to Dc.

I love having this spot near my office. It has really exceeded expectations for a quick lunch or a smoothie. The salads and bowls are always very fresh and well balanced and there are plenty of options to choose from. It definitely gets busy at lunch time, but the staff is efficient and you can also order ahead to skip the line.

Love it here - the service is great and the team is really nice. I work nearby and the app makes it easy to order in advance.

Had the breakfast bowl mit lettuce, quinoa one egg and some cheese. Asked three times for egg overeasy and told it before she did it on my bowl. It was liquid and Not overeasy. Apart of this: the bowl was so small, it‘s not worth more than 9$.

Good and fresh food but be careful when checking out at lunch rush hour. The line is going fast and workers are working hard so things get lost in the shuffle. I was charged for extra chicken when I really just replaced my steak kabobs with chicken.
