Harvest chicken salad is large & delicious with a light golden vinaigrette dressing. The kids meal grilled cheese was a large "gourmet type" sandwich. The sourdough bread with a herb flavor was thick & a bit tough to chew for the 2 year old. Not her style so us adults ate it too. Nice service & plenty of indoor or outdoor seating.

I've been a fan of the Tender Greens concept with its healthy salads, sandwiches, soups, entrees, etc. But after my experience at their Irvine Spectrum location, I think I'm done with this chain. my overall relationship with Tender Greens has been getting gradually worse but this time the last drop of patience has done it.Despite the mall being packed, this restaurant was surprisingly quiet, even during dinner hours. Now I know why. The issue isn't the menu or concept - it's the execution. To produce quality health food, you need chefs with a refined sense of taste. Unfortunately, the food here tastes like it's prepared by people used to making fast food, not healthy dishes.I ordered soups, salmon, chicken, potatoes, vegetables, and salads. The soups went back immediately because they were so oversalted that my tongue went numb. The potatoes were so salty as well that I could feel salt crystals crunching with every bite. It was nauseating. Even the grilled vegetables, meant to replace the potatoes later, had the same issue. It felt like salt was the main ingredient in everything.To be fair, the salads and salmon were decent, but they couldn't redeem the rest of the meal. The only saving grace of this visit was the manager, who handled my complaints professionally, refunded the soups, and did his best to accommodate. His effort is the only reason this review gets two stars instead of one.I wouldn't recommend this location. The idea of healthy food is great, but the execution here is a complete fail. Until they reevaluate their cooking standards and taste-testing process, I won't be coming back.

Coming in hot and hungry, saw a bunch of vegetarian options and this energetic service with all the sampling you want for the beverages, SOLD! All the drinks taste like they're made with minimal sugar, hibiscus got that nice tang, the green juice got celery and apple in it, they may have been mixed from powder but whatever, it's way better than any fountain drink and free refills! All the food were fresh as described and even the bread smells of the grill char, I love that with a crunchy crust and oily fingers. The mozzarella and tomato sandwich was stacked with so much cheese, I couldn't get a proper full bite of it. Like a snake trying to figure out where to start on a trapezoidal animal. What truly puzzled me was the mac n cheese. Having just recently watched a bunch of chefs review and talk about the science behind mac n cheese, this one is anything but that- with the exception of the elbows seen throughout carrying a layer of crispy bread/panko crumbs and cheese. The individual macs can be pulled out and reconstructed into a tiny tube city and possibly house the world's smallest violin carrying hamster. The structural integrity is not going to be compromised by no cheesy-mush. It's still got good flavor and crunch but they're really a savory macaroni honeycomb crisp? Anyway- great service, fast food and not gonna give you heartburn.

Easy quick grub! Very healthy and clean eating. Came here for quick grub one afternoon and it was amazing. Love all the healthy options for salads and bowls they have available. Prices are reasonable portion size could be bigger. Free drink with Yelp check in.Food was fresh and delicious, very healthy and I felt great after eating. Nutritious and not stuffy. Overall nice experience.

The chicken salad is amazing. The one downside I found is that the cuts of lettuce were really large so I had to trim them down. The dressing is light and flavorful. We did a delivery order and it was prepared quickly and arrived fast. The presentation is done very well and makes it very appealing. They are a bit on the pricey side, but it is a good healthy meal.

I got the salmon plate with baby arugula, and mashed potatoes. I love the baby arugula so much and the lemon dressing they had on it. I just wish the arugula was chopped up a bit as they gave me really big pieces. The mashed potatoes were absolutely amazing and the salmon was crisp Delicious. Staff was nice and my food was ready in less than 10 minutes. It was very big place and you can sit either outside or inside. I even brought brought my work laptop here to get some quiet time. Although there is like music playing it still is a good workspace.

I was here for a company's lunch. We took an outdoor table, but the service was superb! I didn't have the opportunity to catch our waiter's name but he's truly attentive, friendly, and polite. He refilled the entire table's drink when we were still chatting and we didn't even request it. I tried their country fried chicken and steak plates before; the fried chicken was good, but nothing special. Steak was done right, but also not unique. However, the short ribs plate was a hidden gem! It was small but packed a punch--super-tender, flavorful, and melt in your mouth. Please give this a try.The only downside with the short rib plate was the sides are fixed; mashed potato was smooth and not overly buttery or heavy. I didn't have the same luck with brocolette though. They either broil it or steam it for a short minute, so the entire stem was very difficult to eat. I'm not usually a sugary drink person (I only drink coffee and alcohol) but the hibiscus tea was acceptable. Just sweet enough and the tartness complemented well with the fat from the short ribs.
