50 Best Salad Restaurants in Richmond

“For someone who really doesn’t like salad, Jackie completely changed my experience! She took her time to explain everything calmly and patiently. She was knowledgeable and made my salad exactly the way I wanted it. Jackie is an excellent employee who truly cares about making sure customers are happy.“

“My computer changed the location for my pickup order to a place different than my usual. But the Willow Lawn location staff did an excellent job figuring out the mixup and quickly getting my order ready for me there. And it was delicious. Bravo Willow Lawn Chopt!“

“Highly recommended. The service, food and ambience is 10/10. Our server Nikki was awesome.“

“I went to the Holly Philly foodtruck located on Midlothian turnpike at the BP gas station. The customer service was outstanding and it was hands down the Best Philly sub I have had in a long time. I ordered their #7 12 inch combo and it was enough food to split for two people. I will definitely be returning!“

“I had two bbq meals one day, one catered by the new hip restaurant and one by Truly Scrumptious. Truly Scrumptious was leaps and bounds beyond in terms of flavor, balance, and freshness. Would highly recommend!“

“What a gem! We had the currywurst and a hot Italian sausage with mushrooms and cheese. Both were absolutely delicious. salad was refreshing and perfectly dressed. One of the best meals I have ever had. We were even able to get some packaged meat to go. The staff were so helpful and kind. Get one of everything!“

“All pizzas begin with the dough. Mike uses premium ingredients to make an awesome crust. Next comes the sauce and toppings. All premium unlike the big chains. Just ordered a large deluxe for my tummy and delicious as always. Very consistent. Cheers to Mike and his crew.“

“I'm addicted and can't wait to hopefully have more tomorrow 😋❤️ All the food was so flavorful and the presentation is amazing.“

“Let me tell you what this Italian place is the 2nd best pizza place I have ever eaten from and I've been all over the country eating pizza their pizza is just like God fathers pizza it's unreal down to the marinara sauce being sweet the pizza being done to perfection and soft I will tell anyone you want good pizza in Richmond or rva zombies pizza is the place to go the chicken and pineapple couldn't have been cooked any better“

“Now that I have eaten here a total of 8 times- 3 times in person & 5 via food delivery apps......it's safe to say: THIS PLACE IS HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY UNDERRATED. Agua Fresca? All flavors-excellent. Pico? EXCELLENT. Guac? EXCELLENT. Birria? EXCELLENT. Churro cheesecake......also excellent. I genuinely don't think this place is appropriately priced. I have to say, the birria is tender but NEVER salty. In the ramen, tacos, and burrito. I genuinely love this place. Food is always hot, fresh, packed with love, and maybe when the birria gets me out of a chokehold- I'll try something else on the menu. Not anytime soon though.“

“I'm just here to add another 5 stars! Hands down probably the best Mexican I've had, either this or Chociloco in Scott's Addition. I got the Burrito Macho Esteban and it's spicy! Full of flavor and I will go back. The prices aren't bad to begin with but the huge portion size I got made it even better! I was referred here by three friends and today was the day. You'll never see the restaurant from the road and probably pass by it a million times and not notice. I feel bad for them, if they were in a more visible spot they would probably be slammed with business all the time. However, don't let this detour you, the restaurant itself is not difficult to access. I will be back!!“

“Excellent pastrami, great people, and a truly welcoming atmosphere. The owner and staff are amazing - you can tell they care deeply about creating a warm, community-focused space. I love coming here with my family and bringing friends along - it never disappoints.“

“Roofs Natural Kitchen has become our absolute go-to spot, and for good reason. Every visit is consistently great, and we always end up ordering the El Jefe with the works—it never disappoints.

The portions are generous, packed with fresh ingredients, and always full of flavor. You can tell they take pride in what they serve.

The place itself is clean, comfortable, and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely seems to care about their customers.

It’s the kind of spot where you feel good walking in and even better walking out, satisfied and already thinking about your next visit. Roofs Natural Kitchen is easily one of our favorites, and we recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, delicious meal.“

“Food is Amazing! Fast delivery!“

“Very tasty! Enjoyed a takeout lunch with plenty of food.“

“Fantastic food!!! Varied menu and very fresh“

“Delicious food and absolutely top notch service! Highly recommend!!“

“This is my first time coming to the establishment and was very pleased with atmosphere, people who worked there, and the upkeep of the building itself;however, I was wondering why the brussel sprouts were removed from the menu so quickly. This is a customer favorite.“

“Cameron the bartender is the best ever 😊“

“Loved the duck and the fried green tomatoes. Great service, too!“

“I had the Atlantic omelette and I was so impressed. It truly had lump crab and lobster in the omelette some omelettes when you deal with seafood are skimpy with the crab and lobster, but hands-down Lulu was one of the best and their omelette was truly well done sometimes omelettes are not cooked all the way through. It was just an amazing experience for me, I was thoroughly impressed. I will be coming back lol 😂 I saw 👀 the chicken and red velvet waffles!“

“I never post reviews but DJ deserves a huge shoutout. I order take out or delivery from here probably once a week (for the past year or so) and every time I go in to get my order if DJ is working, he has a huge smile and welcomes me in by name. He is so sweet and always makes sure my order is correct. I’ve also never had issues with my order when he has handled it. Today, I ordered delivery and he even wrote on the cookie bag Hey Mrs. Lexie, Enjoy & Merry Christmas. These little things are the level of customer service that go above and beyond and keep us coming back. He is vital to this company and deserves some sort of promotion. We obviously will continue coming back but definitely wanted to give recognition to one of the best employees! Thank you DJ for being amazing!“

“Tiny place, better to take out but eat in counter service is available.
Great burgers and dogs! Also one of the only places I've found that still serves traditional footlong hot dogs.
Openly political party affiliated- if that bothers you.
For me, it doesn't affect the food, but also I'd prefer to be in the dark about my hot dog place's politics. Just focus on your hot dogs. But like I said, doesn't affect how the food tastes.“

“Thank you CAVA for taking care of front line workers during this unprecedented time. I see you and appreciate you !!“

“Only fan spot where the primary staff make you feel that they’re glad you’re there. Just don’t get that elsewhere. Really annoying Eagles songs though. When it’s jumpin’, it’s an experience.“

“I highly recommend, it serves good food overall!“

“Idk if they just opened or what but a bit unorganized. We went during the week at night for dinner. Food took a while to come out but it was fresh. Nachos aren’t that good. Waitress not too familiar with menu. The soups are really good and the pupusas are okay.“

“Hands down the best breakfast potatoes I’ve had in a looooooooong time, plus everyone in our group (kids included) liked everything they got. They’ve only been open for a few weeks, which you can tell from the friendly, but rather disjointed service. It’s awesome to have options other than popsicle and hot dog trucks along this part of the river.“

“The best 'fast food' restaurant in town. The food is quick, but far from junk. Everything I've ordered has been fantastic, and even though it is drive-thru, the service is fantastic! They are always friendly and will remember you even if you only pop through every once in a while. Anytime that I have enough money for a great quick bite, I go here. The bread is fantastic, every protien is pilled high, and the amount of fries they give you is a meal in its own right! Please go here as much as you can, they are a family-owned business, and you can tell by the love they put in the food“

“I was extremely excited to learn about Ms.Beesjuicebar in the community where I grew up as a child. The food is delicious and there were so many options to support my mom’s health needs and my family’s lifestyle change🌷☺️“

“Look I've been to a lot of Olive Gardens in my life and I've had mediocre, great, and poor experiences. However, we genuinely had the best experience we've ever had a few days ago by our server Marcus.
Seriously, not once did we have to wait for anything. Refills, check-ups, appetizers, and the check were done with expedience and attention. Amazing personality & atmosphere brought to our table by him. Not only that, but he gave us extra soup and refills with our boxes!
Thank you for the experience :)“

“Very good service and atmosphere. The food overall was very good but their trademark complimentary salad was not as expected. The dressing did not taste like it usually does. Not sure what changed with the salad dressing, but it was not what we usually get from the Olive Garden franchise.“

“I love zorch Pizza Parlor in Forest Hill. We’ve been here twice. The first time we went we ordered half cheese and half sausage, cheese is my favorite pie as it really gives the best representation of the love put into a pie. We went home and had a great dinner time but we decided that the next time we would sit down and enjoy their service and atmosphere. The service is great. I think they recognized me from my past reviews and altercation I’ve had with a pizza place in Carver. They were very welcoming and inviting as soon as we walked in they asked if we had already ordered, or if we wanted to sit down. Our waitress was extremely nice unfortunately I can’t remember her name I was so excited to order and they were playing Ninja Turtles on the TV. I’m a sucker for classic 90s cartoons. We ordered the almost like a pizza pie, this is not like a regular pizza and I’ve never had this style of pizza anywhere else. It was delicious, the crust was flaky and crunchy and the pizza was well cooked with pepperoni crispy edges and just the right amount of cheese. Let me tell you this was a big pizza and I was full three slices in. My girlfriend liked it but she wasn’t a big fan of the sweeter sauce. Next time we are going she wants to try the grandma pie.“

“I do a Cheeseburger Blog (RVA) and highly recommend Habit. If you go to my page, you will see how Habit compares to what I've critiqued so far. I wish there was a way to post my review on this page.“

“Tasty food. Big portions. Fast delivery.“

“Great food and fast service.“

“I’ve lived in the neighborhood for two years. Union is a classic and always hits, s/o tempeh bahn mi and the pimento cheese with Route 11 chips, but what compelled me to write a review is the vegetarian smash burger I had last night! THANK YOU GUYS FOR HAVING THIS OPTION. I love a black bean/veggie patty, but sometimes just want that “meat” experience and not a ton of places in the neighborhood have that. It was so, so good after running the half yesterday.“

“4/7/24 I observed a worker while getting a propane refill at (Quioccasin and Pemberton) walk out the trailer to the store (gloved hands on the door and other store fixtures, handling money) and back out of the store, back into the trailer and straight to the grill (it was that close) with no change of gloves. I walked over because I couldn't believe what I saw and asked the guy why didn't he change his gloves. Apparently there was a language barrier so a coworker step in i then repeated....why didn't he change his gloves. He then said..."He didn't touch anything" I'm like really!!! If they are that careless and trifling the way sickness is spread nowadays with a "nothing was wrong attitude" towards a question why weren't gloves changed do you really want them making your food? I know it smells good around that trailer but BE CAREFUL!!! folks.“

“While travelling America, my partner and I stumbled across this sand which shop and it's the best one we've ever been to! Delicious food and wonderful service- Its such a shame we don't have any here in the U.K!“

“Always a friendly and delightful dining experience. The food has always been consistently good. Perfect for the whole family and parties. They serve large portions so you are sure to leave satisfied. They also have an excellent drink and wine selection. Also fairly affordable.“

“Just Jason’s deli. Pretty good. However in a world full of excuse my language a-holes. It’s nice to come across a manager that’s almost excessively nice. Thank you, I was having a bad day and you made it a little better my man.“

“Dave's has the best chicken salad in town. I love it.“

“The friendly service and amazing food!“

“I work at a nearby building and come here for breakfast/lunch many times a week (not the healthiest I know I’m working on meal prepping okay lol) and they’re always kind and courteous and I never really have issues. Today I placed a pick up order for my breakfast and someone apparently just took it before I got in. Even though I came after breakfast had ended they did their very best to make sure I got the meal I ordered anyway and took the time to mend the situation even in a clearly very busy time. Decided they earned this review for that haha“

“Absolutely amazing I would recommend this place to others“

“This Chic-fil-A is located in Chippenham hospital. The service is great. The staff is always friendly, the place is always clean and our food always hot. This is my go to when I don't feel like going all the way to the Forest Hill location.“

“Door Dashed it for the first time last night. Yummy and enough for 2 meals for me. New fan!“

“Chick-fil-A Review – A Grandmother’s Take
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4 stars)

I don’t eat at Chick-fil-A often, but my grandson loves it—every time I take him out, he asks for Chick-fil-A and always wants their special sauce with his meal. That’s what brings me in.

There are a few things I really enjoy: the waffle fries, kale salad, and the consistently excellent customer service. Every location I’ve visited has friendly, respectful staff, and that’s something I truly appreciate. However, I personally find the chicken to be a bit too salty for my taste, so I tend to stick with a few sides I know I like.

My biggest concern is the cost. On our most recent visit, I ordered two meals and the total came to over $32. I understand prices have gone up everywhere, but for a fast food chain, that’s a lot—especially when you’re just a grandmother trying to treat her grandchild to something simple. Spending time together shouldn’t break the budget.

Overall, Chick-fil-A is a well-run, clean, and family-friendly place—but I do wish the prices reflected that same spirit of accessibility and care.“

“First time trying CAVA and I’m officially obsessed! I built my own bowl and everything from the grains to the toppings was fresh, flavorful, and seasoned just right. The pita chips? Worth every single penny. Crunchy, light, and dangerously addictive. I grabbed the lemonade and mixed in some blueberry lavender… chef’s kiss 💋 Refreshing and different in the best way.

I even tried the sweet pita chips. They were good, but personally I prefer them without the honey dip.

I’ve been a Mezeh girly for years, but after this visit… I might be switching teams 👀. Glad I finally gave CAVA a shot. They understood the assignment! 🙌🏽“

“I recently visited Chick-fil-A, and it was a great experience from start to finish.

The location is incredibly convenient, making it a great spot to grab a quick meal when you're on the go.

As always, the food did not disappoint. The Chick-fil-A sauce is, without a doubt, one of the best sauces I’ve had at any fast-food chain—it’s perfectly tangy and creamy, and it pairs perfectly with just about everything on the menu.

I went for the chicken strips, and they were absolutely delicious. Crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside—just the way a chicken strip should be.

The seasoning was spot on, and they were cooked to perfection. It’s great to see that even in the fast-food world, Chick-fil-A delivers such high-quality, flavorful food.

What also stands out is the friendly and efficient service. The staff was attentive and made sure the experience was pleasant from the moment I walked in.

The atmosphere is always welcoming, whether you’re dining in or grabbing your meal to go.

For fast food, Chick-fil-A is definitely one of the top choices.

Great food, great service, and a solid overall experience.

I’ll definitely be coming back soon!“
