5 Best Salad Restaurants near Republic

“Hands down our family's favorite guilty pleasure! Atmosphere, staff and quality of food are top notch!“

“We love this place. As the mom of an older autistic kid, he is comfortable here and learning to try new things on the menu. He goes on his own at least once a week and asks me out often (you know so mom can pay). Great flavors, good salsa, very clean always. My tip- get the Steven special with charro beans under rice and add sour cream...game changer.“

“The staff and cooks were extremely friendly and easy to work with. They forgot to add cheese to my daddy’s salad and to our pleasant surprise they came back with a whole cup of cheese! 😂 It’s safe to say this is the best McAlister's in the 417.
It’s definitely worth the extra drive“

“Good afternoon Hoods, Mo! My husband and I are truck drivers out of Amarillo, Tx! Never been to Hoods Restaurant but we will be back! The staff was top notch! Our waitress Melissa was one the best yet! Great eye contact and very sweet! Melissa hasn't been at Hoods but bout a month! Keep her & Keep her happy! The world 🌎 needs more people like her! Thank you Melissa you are rare and a blessing! 8-30-2025 A little warm but over all is dynamite service!“

“I placed an online order and called the store to insure my note requesting a substitution was received.
The young lady who answered the phone confirmed she saw the note and had informed the kitchen staff of the change.
I thanked her and apologized, letting her know I was sick and just wanted to make sure the online order was good.
She apologized to hear about my illness, asked if I would like some lemon water, recommending a strawberry to enjoy after, and asked if I would like anything else that may make me feel better. I requested a few extra mints as I find them soothing.
Her kindness and thoughtfulness went above and beyond customer service.
On top of that, the order was delivered timely and accurately, the food was warm and delicious, and the lemon water with the strawberry soothed my soul. I will never forget this experience. Best I've ever had from any restaurant...ever. Well done 👏“
