I'm an avid salad eater. I can literally eat it morning, noon, and night if left to my own vices. I was excited when Sweetgreens made their West Coast debut and now they are more readily available in SoCal to visit. It's the Chipotle style of service where you meet your Salad Angel (not their official title), but that's what I'm calling them and they ask you how they can make your day exceptional. My exceptional day at Sweetgreens is the Hummus Crunch Salad where I get to make so many substitutions that the old-timer Angels basically tell me I just made a Green Goddess salad (RIP from the OG menu) and yes, that's what I'm basically doing. The dressings are so tasty here, especially the green goddess dressing. I also cannot say no to the bread. Their miso salmon or blacken chicken are also the stand out proteins for me. Indoor and outdoor. Seating available.I have found that this location is a hit or miss with service. Sometimes the employees are great and sometimes they look so miserable, I wonder why they even show up to work. The Spectrum is a busy place in general but there is plenty of parking if you have patience during the busy times.Please visit and create your own experience.

Bad location. Go to the other location in Tustin. Spectrum sweetgreen is unhygienic and unappealing with trash overflowing in the cafe, greasy tables, and a dirty restroom. The food stations were shockingly filthy and the staff were sloppy. Management needs to hold better standards or hire more people.Sad, because I like the food, but it's just nasty there, so no thanks.

My wife ordered food via my account (pick-up order); this is her first time eating there. She ordered the Chicken Pesto bowl and made some modifications (adding extra broccoli and sweet potatoes). When she arrived, she noted that the employees were occupied with other customers. As she looked upon the food prep area, it was dirty and very unorganized. After the customers being served left the line, she was told an employee would be right with her. They looked like they did not want to be there, very nonchalant and unprofessional. After being told by two employees that someone would attend to her (again, no one is in line), she was served by a female employee. She was told by the young lady that her order was ready. The bowl wasn't in a bag, nor was the lid properly secure on the bowl itself. Following checking her food; thinking all the food was in the bowl, she thought the blackened chicken that she added to her bowl was missing. She returned to the restaurant and spoke with the same woman who assisted her. The employee was pushing a trash can with gloves on before speaking with her. As my wife asked if the chicken was in the bowl, she stuck her fingers in the bowl w/o taking the gloves off and washing her hands. She told her it was in the bottom of the bowl--the employee walked off with a smirk on her face. It was like four pieces of blackened chicken in the bowl. She found a piece of kale in her bowl and a few burnt pieces of sweet potatoes. Overall, she said the flavor of the bowl was ok, but due to the attitude of the staff, cleanliness of the establishment, and skimping of proportions, she would not be coming back. We hope this reaches management to make and adjust changes within the establishment.It is unfortunate; you work hard for the funds you earn, and close to $25 was gone to waste.

I have walked by this place several times and due to long lines never tried it. This is similar to a chipotle or cava where you create a salad or bowl In an assembly line with a variety of healthy foods. I chose a salad with tofu and other items, it was so tasty especially the Greek goddess dressing! Because you're eating healthier foods the higher cost is justified. Located in the Irvine Spectrum it's convenient and you can sit indoor or on their patio. Highly recommend

Apparently trendy salad place - every other person you see enter the doors is a young professional in fashionable business casual outfits paired with designer sunglasses. Ok - Sweetgreen, you got the looks but do you got the food? Well... honestly, it's ok. I got the Crispy Rice Salad and the chicken is chunks of thigh meat and a little chewy. Instead of crispy noodles, it's served with hard rice pellets, which is something new to me and something I can live without. What ever happened to just normal wontons and croutons? Service is friendly which is nice - it is just salad. but $18 bucks? Yeah - that's a fair place around here.

This was my first time trying Sweetgreen, and I decided to give it a go since they market their food as a healthier option--and it definitely is! I ordered the new Caramelized Garlic Steak Bowl, which sounded promising, but it kind of missed the mark.The steak was the biggest letdown. It didn't taste like steak at all--it had more of a gamey flavor, almost like lamb, and I couldn't really detect the caramelized garlic they promised. Luckily, the pesto sauce helped bring some flavor, but honestly, I wouldn't recommend paying extra for the steak. I have a feeling their other proteins might be better and would probably stick with those next time.That said, the rest of the bowl was solid. The broccoli, sweet potatoes, and raw tomatoes were all fresh, perfectly cooked, and well-seasoned. I appreciated the generous portion of toppings, though they definitely go heavy on the rice--maybe a bit too much, but at least it made the bowl filling.

This is such a great addition to the spectrum center. Fresh healthy lunches prepared to order. Service was friendly and fast. I love that. They have a variety of options to choose from, vegetarian as well. I always like to create my own bowl with vegetables And dressing of my liking, it has always been delicious. They are so friendly and welcoming here, I suggest to pre-order if you are in a rush.

SWEETGREENWow!!! That's all I kept saying to myself, wow!!!! First off, it's very roomy here and the decor was just clean and bright! We made our own bowls and the ingredients are impressive!!!!! There is so much to choose from, I wanted pretty much everything!!!! This is the only place that has the most toppings and ingredients to choose from and also the best overall!!!!!! The only thing I wish they allowed was combining the protein and there's a section that was just toppings to sprinkle over the bowl but it wasn't labeled so to save them trouble, they should put a sign what the toppings were. Toppings and dressings were so unique! They even asked if you wanted light, medium, or heavy on the dressing! Oh and the best party at the end, they mixed the bowl for you! That was really impressive!!!! This is my new healthy spot and hope they open up a lot more locations!!!

Discovered this restaurant chain in Boston. Had a good experience there so decided to try this one located at the Irvine Spectrum. The menu is labeled "G" for gluten free items. I ordered the hot honey chicken bowl. Cost was $15.45. The portions were large see pictures in my review. The taste was pretty good but not great. I liked the gluten free options and healthy choices. The service was fair. We ended up eating outside. They did have a fair amount of outside seating. They did have some tables inside. Would recommend for gluten free and healthier options.
