sweetgreen

Not sure what is happening to sweetgreen. Used to be a huge favorite of mine. Now the food doesn’t look quite as good, service was sullen (never thought I would say that), and the place is just plain dirty. Tables, floor, seating, trash full with bowls half out, insufficient forks (I had to fish around a bunch of empty plastic wrapping (not sure from what) to find a fork.) The whole experience made me want to get out of there as fast as possible. Please, management, do something.

I never thought tipping culture in this country to become more laughable. So after I got my food and got my card out to pay, I noticed that Sweetgreen has, quite literally, blocked out their “No Tip” option on the screen with a sticker simply reading “Please use keypad”. They also covered the bottom-left “R” button with the same sticker, which is the key (on the keypad lol) for the No Tip option. I thought this was just plain funny, but as I was deciding what to tip, the cashier (who probably thought I was going to press R) lunged over the cash register to try to tap one of the tip buttons, essentially trying to deceptively charge me more than what I wanted. I quickly realized this and hit the covered-up “R” button because that was just messed up of her. Seeing this, the cashier shook up my bowl out of spite and slammed it in front of me. She kept the lid on… polite of her to mix my salad for me. Now I go here sometimes, but it’s only been like 2-3 weeks since I last went… what exactly has been happening that would yield this kind of action? Well, I got my answer tonight. It’s no wonder Sweetgreen’s becoming one of the less popular places in the neighborhood. But to play “devil’s advocate”… and I’m no economist, but if these employees have taken such an extreme measure when it comes to TIPPING out of all things, are they even being paid livable wages??? Why are server’s acting this erratically with what almost seems like desperation?? What is the manager there doing? I understand cutting costs, but if my hypothesis is true, that manager needs to rethink everything. That being said, food was still good and it seems everyone dining in is happy… as always. But damn…

Overhyped. My chicken tasted like fish. I would save my money next time

I can't say enough good things about this place. I've already recommended it to friends. I will be getting food from them on a regular basis.

went with a friend. he ordered a salad with salmon. too me, there's nothing exceptional about this place, to me. offers basic, greens for salad choices and not a generous amounts of fill-ins nor selections. I say, make your own salad and save your money.

I’d avoid this place if you’re epileptic. The lights flash on and off very rapidly and flicker almost constantly. It makes dining here very uncomfortable. The food is fine so no worries there but I feel like someone really needs to fix the lights. It’s off putting, distracting, and as someone who works as an electrician professionally occasionally enough where you’d need to put a strobe warning up. It’s a little crazy???
