sweetgreen

"I moved away from the DC area a few years ago so when I returned in July I was so excited to return to Sweetgreen. Sadly it appears the chain has slipped in options. While the salads are still good, two of the locations I have visited (thought I would try a different location in case the first one just had an off day) were lacking in toppings - regular mushrooms, corn, peppers etc... It will be a while before I try again and even then I will hold off on ordering until I can see the selections have improved."

"August 1, 2024 - My salad (chicken caesar) had pieces of clear plastic in it. I bit down and it hurt my teeth. I pulled it out and saw that it was hard, thick plastic, clear plastic-- not the same kind that the utensils are made from. Clearly something else from Sweetgreen. I asked the manager, Esmeralda, for a refund and showed her the plastic piece. She did nothing to check the ingredient bins for the chicken caesar salad. This is a lawsuit if someone cuts themselves and needs dental care. The pieces of plastic were the size of about 3/4 inch square and 1/4 in thick. See pics for example."

"Today I got to the point if sale terminal to complete my salad purchase of $47.85. I proceeded to present a $50 dollar bill to pay. I was told she would not accept the cash payment which is illegal in the District of Columbia. It is also a denial of service. The reason she gave is people present fake money. I was profiled as an African American customer. We were being forced to pay with other tender."

"Quick and healthy. I ordered the harvest salad which was very tasty and had delicious dressing. I knocked off a star because there were some very hard bits of rice that were not chewable. Other than that... Would return there again!"

"After hearing about Sweetgreen for a while, I finally decided to give it a try. I must say, the food is absolutely delicious and the portions are quite generous. Additionally, the service provided was excellent and the restaurant itself is clean and well-organized. My only minor complaint would be that the sauce used in their dishes is a tad too salty for my personal preference."
