50 Best Salad Restaurants near Johnston

“I love their grilled chicken on wraps, sandwiches, and salads. I also love the Brussel sprouts.“

“We live in Ankeny, but very often drive to the Johnston Panera to enjoy our weekly coffee/pastry date. This location is obviously managed well. It is always clean and the pastries are not over baked. The coffee bar is also always clean as is the microwave. Coffee is always fresh and if it isn't they immediately bring out a fresh pot. Also this location seems to be well staffed! Our compliments to the management and staff of this Johnston location! Well done!“

“My favorite breakfast spot in Des Moines, great food and coffee....and the service is always fantastic“

“Absolutely incredible experience! We walked in with our own champagne, and the bartenders were amazing and super welcoming. They opened it for us and put it on ice without hesitation. We did the Omakase sushi dinner, and every single bite was amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was top-notch from start to finish. Can’t recommend enough—10/10! 🍣🍷✨“

“Went for the first time as we are from 4 hours away. Everything was awesome. Got seated right away. And order was taken. Food came out hot. Didn’t try the pop tart as wasn’t sure what it was. But heard it is very good. Maybe next time we get to town. Service was outstanding“

“GoodSons on Beaver Ave is the quintessential neighborhood bar. Have a seat, and you're surrounded by friends. Nice rotation on the taps, including many local brews, and a plentiful selection of cocktail options. The food is a delectable selection of paninis and bar favorites. Come in, have a seat, you are welcome!!“

“If I didn't know I was in Des Moines, I'd believe Allora was in Milan, Italy. The food was fresh and delicious, and the coffee was perfection. The service was great, both unobtrusive and attentive (a balance not a lot of American restaurants at this price point seem to understand. Centro also does a great job balancing the two!)“

“Delicious food, friendly staff, & very clean restaurant!“

Hot, fresh, delicious. Jordan was extremely kind and checked in to make sure everything was great (it was). Very clean, both tables and bathrooms. Will come again. Ate a third before I thought to grab a pic“

“Still one of my favorite places to eat in central Iowa. Great service, even when it's busy. I higjly recommend using the app to get on the wait list regardless of your partysize. I've dined at this location for over 20 years and watched staff turnover, remodeling, upgrades and menu changes but yet there is always something delicious to enjoy!“

“One of my wife's favorite places. She has Alpha-gal, and I am probably spelling that wrong. (It's that tick bite disease that radically messes up your diet.) She once owned a restaurant herself. She is impressed with Olive Gardens' attention to detail with the freshness and temperature (cold) of the salad.“

“I recommend everything about this Maid-Rite. We love you, Brian!!!“

“Went with my niece before an appointment. Showed up a little before 9 and Zuella was the cashier. She was very personable and polite. She had a warm feeling about her. We dined in and my niece and I both got the bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. Both sandwiches were fresh and Zuella came out and checked on us. She was very hospitable. Restaurant was clean. What I did appreciate was there was a table of staff all sitting together eating behind us. Whether it was them on break or about to start/ended shift, it was nice to see they were given that time and seemed to be enjoying themselves. Great experience.“

“Foods always good, quick, and by far my favorite selection of music“

“I have been to this chick fila for most of my life. I have encountered some incredible service. Elliot and Cherry have been wonderful help. I specifically saw workers today helping move tables together for a group of people. The workers are so accommodating, Always smiling, and kind ready to help whenever. It is very clean and kid friendly great for a quick eating spot. drive through line moves at an incredibly efficient pace. Overall great place.“

“Kenny H served us tonight at the SE 14th location and it was seriously my best experince at any Olive Garden location!!! He knew how to brighten our day and even sung us happy birthday solo (great voice may I add). I will DEFINITELY be back to see Kenny!“

“This establishment stands out as a premier fast-food option. The premises were impeccably maintained, and the parking area was notably clean and free of debris. The staff delivered exceptional service, and the menu was clearly presented and easy to navigate. The ordering process was seamless, facilitated by direct interaction with a staff member rather than automated kiosks.

The food was served fresh and at an optimal temperature. The fries were particularly noteworthy, with a perfectly balanced seasoning. The chicken sandwich featured a delightful crisp exterior and a succulent interior, resulting in a truly delicious experience.

While the pricing is somewhat higher compared to other fast-food establishments, the unparalleled service and superior quality of the food more than justify the cost.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly endorse this establishment.“

“Great food court food. I picked this up to go to take back to my husband at work for lunch and I was so happy with my choice. I got the chicken and shrimp teriyaki and I got him the beef teriyaki with crab Rangoons. It was all perfectly cooked and so good. He was very happy they had a diet Dr Pepper too.“

“Excellent food“

“I love this bar and I appreciate that they have gluten free options.“

“We eat here a lot. I was happy to see an offer for a bonus $5 gift card with purchase of a $25 card. So I go for the offer, only to discover, several screens into the process, that there is a $2.50 "digital services fee." Come on guys. This really leaves a bad taste in your mouth.“

“Self check out normally is a disaster but today I got helped by Michelle.T and she was awesome. She was able to multitask and help with questions along with making sure we got out of there without a hassle. Amazing food and well trained staff. Michelle T working the self check out line on Saturday June 10th was the best so far though“

“Love Panera. Great deals on food. Install the app to get coupons. Mondays always have a coupon deal. I love that I can pre-order through the app and pick it up myself. My order is always spot on. Thanks Panera for a great app experience every time.“

Vegetarian options: Great!

Kid-friendliness: Yes!

“1st time there, food was incredible and the service was spot on, will definitely be coming back.“

“BEST pizza and wings I have ever had and that alone says enough! The cheese topper pizza is to die for and the wings are beyond amazing. Everytime I promise myself to take a picture I eat over half before i even remember. I can't believe I went this long without knowing this place was this AMAZING! It's worth every dollar EVERY time!“

“It was ok. Nothing special.“

“It’s an all you can eat garden bar and steak house. Absolutely delicious and the best experience! Also super kid friendly my toddler loved it!“

“So far I’ve only had the sugar cookies and I’m in love. I guess that’s why they are called Love Drops 😍😂 Great customer service as well! 10/10 would recommend 👍🏼👍🏼“

“Always amazing service! I went through the drive thru a week or so ago and ordered, then pulled ahead and a younger boy made sure to stop and tell me my brakes were squeaking and it was extremely dangerous to drive in that condition. His concern was so sweet and thoughtful. You have very nice employees, I am always impressed!

I already had plans to fix my brakes but appreciated his genuine concern!“

“I recently ordered 2 large (catering size) orders of nuggets for our son’s graduation party from this store. They are one of his favorites! The nuggets were delivered on time to our home by an employee of the store at no charge. They were fresh and hot upon arrival! It didn’t take long for them to disappear 😋 I was able to do everything through the app—very easy! I ordered from this restaurant in particular because their minimum order amount was lower. The manager confirmed my order via email and even followed up with me after. I could not have been more happy with the whole experience! I highly recommend this store for your CFA catering needs.“

“Honesty, great food for the most part. Atmosphere inside was really nice. I’ve done pick up as well and that is fairly smooth too. Only complaints are they give you an optional tipping screen when paying, when they don’t really offer any courtesy acts once they’ve given you your food both for dining in and for pick up. Also they jack up the price on tea, lemonades and certain sides, and I have to say the fruit cup is not worth the price jump. But their sandwiches are great, service is fast, and overall not bad if you just get a water and chips for your drink and side.“

“Our pizza came in under 30 minutes on Christmas! So happy these guys were open & the pizza was delicious 🤤“

“Sandwich tasted fresh, delicious, clean! Good atmosphere, friendly stuff 🦋💕“

“The food here is great but if you order online and try to change the cheese, they remove it altogether. I’ve tried multiple times and even put it in the comments and still, my sandwich comes with no cheese at all. Just a heads up. Love the food here though.“
