40 Best Salad Restaurants in Dallas

“My mom and I stopped in for lunch on a Wednesday around noon and, to our surprise, were seated right away. We decided to split the gumbo and a Connecticut-style lobster roll.

Now, as a native New Orleanian, I’m very picky about gumbo. I almost didn’t order it because I know how high my standards are (Chef Paul Prudhomme’s method taught me how to make a proper dark roux by hand, and I still swear by it). But their gumbo? Exceptional. Spicy, layered with flavor, and honestly one of the best I’ve had outside of New Orleans. I not only finished my cup but polished off my mom’s too.

The lobster roll was a little on the small side, but paired with the gumbo it was the perfect lunch. We even saved room for a celebratory lemon cake—compliments of the house—for my mom’s birthday. A sweet ending to an unexpectedly great meal.“

“the food, service and wine were outstanding! the owners are super friendly as if I've known them for years...and years...and years...“

“This place exceeded expectations on every level. Atmosphere was cozy for date night dinner before my wife and I went to see Nate Bargatze. The Food at all ends were alive with flavor kicking. The service was attentive and caring, just excellent. We started with The spinach artichoke dip. amazing, the chips (I believe their famous Italian nacho chips and homemade Garlic bread slices came together like a flavor family. My wife ordered the Primavera with chicken and the cream Parmesan sauce. out worldly, amazing. I would eat that sauce on everything. I ordered the Spicy Chicken Penne. A wonderful fusion of Sharp sundried tomatoes, sauteed Garlic cloves sauce and chicken. the spice was excellent as well, not overpowering like the star of the show, but rather a supporting actor that let you know they were there. The portions were very generous. don't expect to finish your entire dish, we went hungry and left with 1/3 of each of our entrees. I would recommend this place to anyone in Dallas, or going to Dallas..I would even recommend to the owners to venture down to Houston, as we could use this in our city. You would be missing out if you didn't come through this place at least once.“

“Great food with a lot of options. I was a little overwhelmed at first when I walked in, but the gentleman at the counter was able to walk me through everything. I made my own bowl and it was super fresh and tasty. I appreciate the overall quality of the ingredients. This will be my go to for healthy lunches when I forget to pack food for work.“

“This was the best plant based food I have ever eaten. The tacos both Walnut and Jackfruit were SO GOOD!!!! I’m not vegan but eating this food makes me think I could without question.“

“Restaurant Beatrice in Bishop Arts is always a win. The food is fresh, flavorful, and leaves a lasting impression. I go often—sometimes twice a week—and everyone I bring loves it too. The service is just as incredible. Queen is amazing—she knows the menu inside and out and always recommends exactly what I’ll love. If you haven’t been, you’re missing out. Whether it’s a casual night out or a special occasion, this spot deserves a place in your rotation!“

“Fantastic food, atmosphere, drinks, ect“

“We went on Halloween night, so it was very empty but every time we drive past this restaurant, I see almost no one there! After visiting, I am blown away! Everything we ate was delicious! The restaurant is very very well done! The location is great, we were able to walk from our downtown apartment. more people need to visit the national anthem!“

“I brought my brother here for the first time and he absolutely loved it! Not only is the food always fresh and stations always clean anytime I come but the staff is super friendly and always greeting everyone with a smile. My favorite cava to come to in Dallas!“

“Beautiful bar, great service. Try the mushroom pizza“

“Our second visit and not the last. Great selection of starters and specialty martinis to choose from. M- F happy hour from 3 to 6 offers half price which is a great deal. Our server was very good throughout the meal. Love the large patio space.“

“Great place for my part business, part personal lunch. The spicy rigatoni that I ordered was great and the two pizzas that my guests ordered provided a great lunch and great dinner that night! It was their first time to DL Macks and they enjoyed it!“

“servicio excelente delicioso BRB r“

“The ingredients are as beautiful to look at as they are delicious to eat. Fresh and healthy! I wish they offered smaller bowls—I had the Shroomami, which is so huge that I’m taking some home. (Too many calories as it is, though all of a healthy kind.)

Special shout-out to Shea or Shay for her excellent service.“

“Andrew and Joanna were really great !! The food was absolutely exceptional 1st and will not be the last seriously the portions are great too and you willl be full after that salad and wrap ! I got the açaí bowl & you better add that cashew butter in that bowl 😍“

“This is a good place. The have treated me with kindness and respect. I am a traveling field service technician. I sometimes have unusual hours. one morning I stopped here well before they had opened up and even though the were preparing for the day they opened up and made me breakfast. I will never forget this act of kindness. if am in back in this area I will certainly eat some meals here. Great job of customer service, salute!“

“hey I saw that they will open a sweetgreen in Addison Texas any contact number to apply to work in the kitchen“

“Thank you, thank you, thank you! Manager Anthony “made it right” when Uber Eats “made it wrong”. The pizza was fantastic! Vegan+Gluten Free. I am so glad they are not only making this type of pizza, but they are making it fantastically! 🤩😍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Just had our best Cava experience to date! We find one every time we’re in DFW, but this was our first time at this location. Englan was so animated and patient while our kids ordered, we loved the outdoor seating area, and the food was great, as always.“

“Perfect experience from beginning to end. We felt treated like family the entire time and the food was amazing! Tempting to eat too much but be sure to save room for their speciality dessert also!“

“Muy buen servicio Y muy buena comida“

“so the fact that you give your employees less than a WEEKS notice that they are losing their jobs is super messed up. I talked to the girl at the window today on your closing day and I was stunned to hear about this. it's sad and bitter sweet to have everything closed but the way it was handled has me even more upset.“

“Myself and my family came in on Thursday night. Ms. Cassandra was wonderful. She help us sign up for Snappy rewards and for first time customers she went above and beyond. Thank you so much for the great service we loved it, and will be back to see Ms. Cassandra“

“I have eaten here more then once and every time the food has not missed a beat. The cook Steve throws down with those lamb chops and the sauce is delicious. Food seem prepared with care and not just thrown together like other food places.“

“Orange Cafe is an absolute gem!
The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff are always friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. It’s the perfect spot to start your morning right. I always leave full and happy. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great breakfast spot!“

“I had a great experience at CAVA NorthPark Center thanks to Malcom and Allie. Both of them provided excellent service friendly, professional, and attentive throughout my visit. They made sure everything was just right with my order and really went above and beyond to create a welcoming experience. It’s not often you come across staff that make you feel valued as a customer, but Malcom and Allie definitely did. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Pappas Steak House has been my favorite high end steak restaurant in Dallas sun moving here in 2000. The service is always exceptional and Brian (our waiter) did not disappoint. Food was fantastic and thoroughly enjoyed the giant prawn appetizer. Very unusual and delicious. Salads, steak and side were top notch. Looking forward to returning many times.“

“The food was tasty and fresh but overpriced. Almost $12 for a salad with a small scoop of chicken.“

“Horrible customer service experience tonight at CAVA. We’ve never been to the new CAVA by our house. So we thought we’d take a walk over there and give it a try. We walked in and there were four employees behind the counter. I don’t know how much more obvious we could’ve been that we were brand new to the CAVA experience, but not one of the four employees even greeted us. We took a moment to look at the menu and decided to have the lemon chicken bowl, and the falafel wrap. There were no prices listed for drinks. You should fix that. We literally had to stand there while they kept walking around looking at us and not even saying hello. Finally someone asked if they could help us. I said I’d like the falafel wrap and he promptly walked away without asking what my dining companion wanted. We didn’t know where to stand so we went back to the beginning of the service line. Finally the second guy asked if there was something else we wanted. I told him I wanted the lemon chicken bowl as well. They made up our food silently, no eye contact, no conversation. We got to the checkout and the lady was absolutely unhelpful and unfriendly. We paid for our meal and went and sat down. The food was delicious but the inhospitable attitude of the staff was palpable and disappointing. Something needs to be done about the greeting and ordering experience. Systems need to be in place where people feel welcome. If the food weren’t so good, I definitely would never go back. I’m hoping someone will see this and make some effort to put a system in place where people are made to feel welcome at these new restaurants, otherwise, you are doomed. There are literally five other restaurants in the shopping center where this new CAVA is located. If customers want to be treated better, and they only will be treated better at other restaurants, CAVA will close down very quickly.“

“Visiting on business from Ohio and WOW! These guys killed it. Delicious smoked wings, seasoned fries, and side salad made of fresh iceberg (not shredded). Person on the phone was awesome, delivery guy on time with a smile! What more can you ask for for less than $20. We’ll done!“

“Piada’s will never let you down. The staff however, this one particular young caucasian lady acted as if requesting the toppings I wanted on my wrap was a problem. And let’s not discuss when it was time to add the Alfredo sauce to my pasta, I had to tell her add some more. She acted as if she didn’t want to serve us and she didn’t want to be at work. Piadas do better. Teach your staff customers service, before you lose business.“

“Great salads and great people. There was a crazy lady with a catering order yelling at the whole staff about how to do their jobs. The staff remained professional and even helped my party out middle of the crazy lady’s micro managing. The staff remained professional and helped us out. Great place to eat. Will be coming back.“

“Stopped by Luna Grill at The Hill in Dallas and was seriously impressed. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked – especially the chicken kabob plate. Super clean space and chill vibes. It was packed, BUT they turned out my order in a snap.
Big shoutout to Jaci and Selena – they were incredibly kind, helpful, and honestly, total stunners. Their service made the visit even better.
Highly recommend this spot if you're craving Mediterranean done right!“

“This place is awesome with a big variety of delicious dishes and eats. LOVED IT!“

“Great service from Lorenzo…..very surprised to find out he was a fairy new server….he was phenomenal!!! Steak was great, lobster, Mac & cheese, soup and oh my …… the smoked old-fashioned…..delicious!! Great place for food and atmosphere“

“Hands down the best restaurant I have ever been to. Kade and Stan the MAN!!! Are awesome!!!! this will forever be my go to when visiting Dallas/Addison, Texas. the Smoky maple bacon old fashioned is amazing. this drink brings back the memories of sitting around a campfire at deer camp telling tall tales with good friends. Stan and Kade make sure you feel at home and have the best experience of all time. After you experience the Amazing taste of anything on the menu here, you will forever compare everything else to it and realize The Lazy Dog is better than even your mama's home cookin.“

“We enjoyed our ‘end of week’ Sunday meal @ 5 p.m. by starting off with Carpaccio and delicious hot bread, then for our main courses, Silk Hankerchiefs, and Fettuccine Carne e Funghi with brandy cream sauce. No room for dessert… lovely service by an even lovelier server from Hidalgo! Creamed corn with Calabrian peppers (side dish)…don’t skip this side dish… ❤️“

“The staff here was so accommodating today. Thank you!!!“

“Holy crap this is good. Whipped Ricotta with home made salted bread bites delicious, and the garlic bread dripped butter. Pizza crust was awesome. Staff very nice.“
