Profile

No false advertising here; it really is just salads (and salad wraps). The simple formula of designing your own salad from lettuce to dressing is an extremely popular one among the neighborhood’s svelte PR girls and cholesterol-conscious suits looking for something green to lunch on. The menu has more than 50 ingredients, including the exotic (pomegranate seeds, hearts of palm) and the upscale (salmon, grilled shrimp). There are no tables, and the only embellishment, if you could call it that, is a half-hearted carrot-orange and basil-green color scheme. This is a place to line up, not linger. In the end, though, it’s a very reasonable choice for anyone who has rightfully been spooked by the deli salad bar.

Be Green

Just Salad offers a $6.75 special salad with six toppings to anyone who brings back the sturdy plastic containers for reuse.

I eat from a lot of places in midtown, but after i went to Just Salad, or as the locals call it "JS", I could never go anywhere else. The food is super fresh- much more fresh than those other salad places that use produce from the day before. I LOVE the California and the Pesto Chicken Paradise. The music is fun and the employees know my name. Def check it out.

Amazingly Fresh!

I am always pleased to see another health-food venue open in NYC, but ESPECIALLY pleased when it specialized in salad. I have tried a number of the "chef-designed" salads here for lunch, and not a single one has disappointed! I especially love the texas-two step, which includes BBQ chicken and chilled avocado dressing. I have them hold the cheese, as i'm trying to eat as healthy as possible. The salad is incredible. If you're feeling bold, design your own salad. They have so many different dressings and ingredients, you could spend an hour just deciding. Download the menu from their website so you can have some of the work done before you get there; it gets a little crazy around lunch time!
