50 Best Salad Restaurants near Lake Zurich

“Giordano’s in Lake Zurich never disappoints. Whether we dine in or do carry out, the experience is consistently smooth. Orders are ready on time, the food is always hot and fresh, and the quality never misses. You really can’t go wrong here. This ownership clearly gets it right. No complaints whatsoever. As always, we’ll be back.“

“Superb lunch spot with clean spacious booths suitable for conversation. Blissfully no music playing! The food was prepared and brought to our table in 5 minutes. The McAllister club was nice to split with my wife, with fresh ingredients and a sweet sauce with just a hint of spice…mostly mayo but there is something more going on there. Potato salad was fresh…..a little bland but that’s OK. Can’t beat the affordable prices.“

“Best Panera I’ve ever been to. The owner/manager is always there and you can tell he has a good rapport with the employees. They seem to be happy working there which is reflected in the quality of the food and service. The food is always fresh and hot and the employees are always helpful and friendly“

“Delicious and authentic Georgian food.“

“Very fast and pleasant service, along with amazing food served here. 10/10 best restaurant I’ve been to in Grayslake! Sat down at 7:45, watched our food and drinks made be served before 8. Every costumer that came in was treated with the same welcoming, friendly, and FAST service. Will be returning as this is our new favorite spot. 💞“

“Akmal he's one of the best people the best manager and he's amazing everybody should go to me because she treats you like you're part of the family and you will make sure that you're happy and satisfied with your services“

“Sarpino’s Pizzeria is consistently excellent. The crust is perfect, the ingredients are fresh, and the flavor combinations are spot-on. Their gourmet pizzas and sides like garlic cheese bread are always a hit. Great food, great value—highly recommend!“

“Very nice, hardworking staff and delicious food! Love this place and highly recommend!! 😋👍“

“So many styles to choose from. Always hot and tasty! Highly recommend!“

“great food for a great price“

“Our reservation was for 5pm and we walked in at 502pm. The food for both my wife and I were absolutely the best Italian food we have ever had. The price was excellent for such great quality. We will try to come at least once per month. Thank you very much for our delicious meals. We will see you soon.“

“Jackie and the team are fantastic! Everything here is house made! We had multiple sauces, meats, cornbread, chips and salsa, Mac n cheese and curry - all of which were enjoyed! I came here with multiple family members and clearly need to get back to sample dessert. They have good kids’ meal options plus a little gift area. Very clean and extremely nice service. Must try it all!“

“We ordered when they first opened but at that time felt there weren't many options and food was bland. Glad we gave this place a second chance! We ordered today and everything was delicious! They expanded their menu and was so happy to see the Indonesian Peanut Saute! Husband loved the Pad Thai. We had the Green Goddess and Raspberry Poppy Seed Pecan salads and they were super fresh and paired nicely with the dressings. Great friendly customer service from the young man taking the orders. Will definitely be back!“

“The brisket sandwich was the best I ever had!! The sauce, excellent.. and the fries, I haven't found fries like that in year's!! 5 stars!!“

“This place has best beefs and chicken parmigiana in area. Sauce very good worth every dollar.“

“We had an 80th Birthday party in the private room. It was the best experience and the most delicious food. The staff are so friendly and helpful. And again the food was wonderful and plentiful. You can’t go wrong booking the Continental for your next party. I give it 10 out of 10.“

“Got the gyros and onion rings with Cajun ranch. Wife got a grilled chicken sandwich. We went at 6:30 on a Saturday. Food was hot and tasty, ready to try the pizza next time. The service was fast and friendly. They have lots of staff working for them.“

“Chill little place. They know their demographic and location too to have very specific hours, prices are decent if ur looking for something to eat without it being a full course meal. I've had the caprese so far and while it was a little drippy it was good. Seems like you have to avoid the peak hours though because it will get packed so either show up at opening or near closing.“

“It’s a great place to bring your family“

“Authentic cucina italiana. Quality has dropped a little in the past few years. Eating here since 2015. Good portions and fair pricing. Inside of the restaurant looks good.“

“The food was outstanding and the waitresses did an awesome job. It seemed like they were extremely busy but never showed it. Very professional“

“Outstanding dining experience (with a 2 year old) - great experience at this Olive Garden. The whole staff was so warm and kind - even though we had a lot of requests 🙏 - much appreciated for our meal and I would like to call out or server but forgot his name - so wonderful!!! Keep up the good work 💙💙💙

Kid-friendliness: Kid Friendly for sure“

“Hands down, I’m so glad this Quiznos is still around! In a world where other restaurants have overshadowed and pushed this chain out, I’m genuinely thankful that the owners here have kept it going in my neighborhood.

The staff is always super friendly (some even recognize me when I walk in) which just adds to the experience. And the sandwiches? Perfect every time. The bread practically melts in your mouth.

There’s something special about the nostalgia this place brings, and I’m grateful not just for the memories but for the consistently amazing food. Thank you for keeping the torch lit!“

“The golden spice apple cup is phenomenal! The “gold chocolate” reminds me of cookie butter and has been the best fall treat I’ve had all season so far. Their food and soup are amazing too. I always get the Try 2: ultimate grilled cheese with BBQ chicken salad or a pesto chicken sandwich with chicken enchilada soup. I’ve also tried their Mango Mojito mocktail which was delicious.

Food is great quality and I always enjoy the complimentary bread and chocolate dipped strawberry too. Highly recommend!“

“BEST sub sandwiches, ever!!! Yeah, it’s expensive, but you get what you pay for!“

“First time I have ordered from here and I am very pleased with the food. Everything was great. I did call and told the manager over the phone.. He needed to hear that,,“

“Nice place with good food and good drink.“

“This is one of the best take out places ever. Menu offers healthy choices and yummy soups, as well as some down home fast food as well. Friendly efficient staff. This restaurant is clean as a whistle too. We love Dengeos.“

“The General Manager in Hoffman Estates Panera is one of the best I have ever seen. His name is Brian. He is constantly on the go, working the register, making drinks, cleaning tables, helping people as needed. Very approachable. We frequent this store regularly. Kudos Brian!“

“Lucas is truly a Sandwich Artist. They went a above and beyond to explain things to me since I hadn't been in and there were a lot of choices. The rest of the team works really well together and it's a nice place. 5/7, perfect score.“

“A great option for healthy fare if you're visiting someone at the hospital — though I've stopped by to pick something up even when I've been in the area! Love the coconut pineapple chia seed pudding and the elote salad. Bonus: it's open even when the other options in the hospital are closed!“

“My only regret is that I don’t live closer to this place!
I was with my sister and cousin for lunch and it was our first time there
Everything was clean and orderly, Cesar the GM, Pablo, and Aida were behind the line serving.
They were all so friendly and attentive
All the ingredients were fresh and I added the Salmon to my bowl. It was all DELICIOUS!
My cousin said she’s taking her husband because she enjoyed her bowl so much and my sister is hoping they will open in Glenview close to where she lives
There was a nice lunch crowd and it wasn’t noisy at all
Thank you Cesar and teammates for making our dining experience so enjoyable
Even if you’re not gluten free— you should check this spot out“

“I love Portillo's. But this location cannot get drive-thru orders correctly. They consistently order the wrong number of items, or the toppings that we ask for. We've had to call in literally the last 5 times we've been there telling them they missed something, charged us for things we didn't get, or because we were given other people's orders. Clean it up Portillo's. It's not that hard serving hot dogs.“

“Righted a wrong, and then some! Class act, Noodles! A+“

“I have to start out by saying our server Zack was one of the absolute BEST servers I've ever had anywhere. He is so kind, attentive, knowledgeable, and hardworking! He anticipated our needs so we didn't need to ask and wait around for refills, he brought extra napkins with out us having to ask, a server who does their job without having to be asked always elevates the dinning experience even if the food is just alright.

The food: we ordered the buffalo cauliflower as our appetizer which was good but I wish there had been just a little more but taste and presentation were good. We split the Cobb salad and ordered the 5 cheese and tomato pizza but added sausage to it. Everything tasted good however I do wish the pizza was cooked maybe another 2 minutes. The table bread though with the oil omg chef kiss!

Overall we had a good experience and we will be coming back again!“

“We had fun for retirement party.“

“They were offering a grilled hot autumn special sandwich but it came to cold with the cheese not melted. The apple drink was good but tasted thin, I was expecting a thicker drink based on apple cider, I guess. Overall, not one of my favorite lunches at Cafe Zupas but there's other food choices there that are rewarding.“

“I can’t say enough good things about this Chick-fil-A and their amazing team! During bingo night I accidentally dropped my wallet and didn’t even realize it for three days (thanks to Apple Pay I didn’t miss it right away). When I finally stopped by to check the lost & found, the store manager went above and beyond—he searched for a good 10 minutes and actually found my wallet safe and sound.

The relief and gratitude I felt was incredible. It’s rare to experience this level of honesty and care these days, and it really shows how much pride this store takes in taking care of their guests. I’m beyond thankful, and because of this experience I’ll definitely be stopping by every week for my favorite iced coffee.

Thank you again to the whole team—you turned what could have been a stressful situation into a heartwarming reminder of kindness and integrity!“

“Amazing place! Delicious onion soup!!!!l love it 😍“

“Quizno’s is insanely underrated! I normally don’t review fast food restaurants too often, but I feel like Quizno’s isn’t getting the brand recognition that it deserves.I had two Italian Meatball sandwiches on the Sammie flatbread (typical to my normal order at other sub shops like Subway), and I was very impressed! I had decent expectations going in as I remember my last visit to a Quizno’s joint (a rest stop somewhere on I-94) was pretty good (likewise, it had been over 5 years since I’d been to Quizno’s due to the lack of location near where I live), and those expectations were certainly exceeded!The employee working the store was also very helpful, and promptly had my food prepared well.As comically long as I may have seemed to spend on this review, I’d feel guilty if I didn’t share my love for Quizno’s. I truly hope this brand continues to grow and compete well, as they deserve to!“

“👍👍👍👍👍“

“from out of town and stopped on a whim. Def a good idea! Burgers were hand pressed, fresh cut fries and could tell oil was fresh so fries were excellent, shake had chocolate syrup drizzled on inside if glass- nice touch! will def stop again if in area.“

“Panera Bread in Mundelein, IL, is my go-to spot for a delicious and healthy meal. The food is always fresh, with a great variety of options, from soups and salads to sandwiches and bakery treats. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a perfect place to relax or catch up on work. The staff is friendly and efficient, ensuring that orders are always accurate and served quickly. Whether dining in or grabbing something to go, Panera Bread in Mundelein consistently provides a great experience. Highly recommend!“
