Seven Homemade Dressings Made Fresh Daily
Our dressings are made in-house, not squeezed from bottles. That's why they taste different, fresher, more flavorful. Choose from Caesar, Ranch, Chipotle, Blue Cheese, Aioli, Thousand Island, or Vinaigrette. Each one complements our salads perfectly, we serve our dressing on the side so you control the amount of dressing you prefer.
What Makes Our Salads Different
Everything is fresh. The greens are crisp. The proteins are seasoned and prepared properly. The vegetables are cut that day. And the dressings are homemade. Compare that to a fast-food salad that's been sitting in a cooler, and you'll taste the difference immediately. We take salads seriously because they're a real meal, not an afterthought.
Make It a Meal
Pair any salad with a soft drink and your choice of side (soup of the day, additional house salad, apple slices, or coleslaw) for a complete meal deal. It's the most popular way to order for customers who want a satisfying lunch without overthinking their options.
