The Salad Station

"Love a good salad, especially when it’s hand crafted to be exactly what I want. It’s self service though, so sometimes I get nervous about people not being cleanly (there are gloves available for you to use while making your salad though)"

"The restaurant was very clean and the attendants were nice. I was very underwhelmed with the salad though. Some of the vegetables are not chopped well..like chunks of onion, bell peppers, etc. They charge by the weight of your salad so the chunkier your ingredients, the more likely you’ll add more to your salad so ingredients are proportionate. Could be a selling tactic or just a preference of mine to have my vegetables more thinly sliced so they spread evenly. I was really disappointed in their protein choices though. I selected the buffalo chicken at first. I thought the color of it was very odd—like neon orange. I tried it after it was already on my salad since they make you fix your own salad. It tasted disgusting but I’m not one to complain so I simply got a side bowl and put some of their herb chicken in there for me to pick off the buffalo chicken later. I also got their strawberry lemonade—that was the best part of my meal. I got home and even the herb chicken was nasty—tasted dry and very heavy on the garlic. I love salad and fell in love with Salata in Lake Charles. I wanted to give this place a try but I likely won’t be back. Food was not tasty or worth the money."

"I visited this place for dinner twice during a business trip. + The service was great and friendly + The place looks clean and the product fresh (for the most part) + the variety of options is great including veggies, meat and dressings - the desert options are limited and the cookies they sell is 380kcal which defeats the purpose if you are looking for a healthy meal - drink options in bottles is limited - closes early"

"Was pleasantly surprised with the selections, quality of meat and staff. I really like that the place was very clean. Best place in town for salads. Dressings tasted homemade. Has soup, potato bar, baked chicken and veggies. Sold by weight, very reasonable prices. Good job!"
