This was my first visit. I ordered the "Club". Nice that the nutrition facts were displayed for the soups, I ordered a cup of the chicken noodle. The food prep servers were very nice and helpful. My food was "to go" and when I got back to the office, I was surprised how small the salad was for $8. I also notice that weird smell you get from fast food salads sometimes, I dont know if it is due to food preservative or what, but I did not enjoy it. The soup was a bummer because it was so salty. It looked like it would have been good if not for that. It was an expensive lunch ($12) for small salad and cup of soup, especially when it was disappointing. Also there should be more than one door. People have to wait to leave if someone is coming in.

1st time eating here.If I could give 0 stars I would.10$ for a cobb salad with barely any turkey in it.It was a big soggy slopped up mess even though the dressing was on the side.Lettuce tastes bad. I gave my friend the roll that came with the salad and she said it was nasty.I tried a piece and yes it was indeed not good.I took 3 bites of the salad and gave up.The dressing was awful.I was better off getting a salad from the hospitals cafeteria and thats not a joke.I assumed that a place called the big salad would make amazing salad.My 10$ is in the trash.

I asked the salad maker, who is also the owner, to make sure the lettuce was not frozen, like it was the last time I was there. I spent $13 and got back to work to find that the lettuce was indeed frozen with many pieces being transparent. Im so hungry, and I cant go back out right away because I have to listen to a webinar. I was planning on eating my expensive salad while listening to the webinar. This totally sucks! Im returning the salad after the webinar and getting a refund while giving them a piece of my mind.

The Salad is OK but over priced. But even worse is the service. Not sure who is running the place but the server seems to lack the capacity to understand the menu. Not one time have I gone there a got help from anyone who knows what to put in a wrap or even how to ring it up. BTW if you are going to charge me per item, you do not get to throw away my excess salad simply because it does not fit in a WRAP!!! Owners likely need to pay better salary to get more capable individual to service customers.

For a salad that costs $6.99 - I would expect for the lettuce not to be brown - it should all be fresh since salad is the specialty of the restaurant. It was my first experience and a bummer because I work in the area and it would have been nice to eat there frequently and recommend this restaurant for catering for gatherings at my workplace - but - they need to work on the freshness of the lettuce.

First time visiting this new restaurant. The service was fast and friendly and food was excellent! The salads are plenty big and can be customized anyway you like. Love how the salad is chopped right in the bowl for easy eating. Great location being close to U of M North Campus. Love having a healthy option to the many fast food places nearby. Good luck to Kevin Vlazny!

The menu is expansive and the food decent. The soda machine has unique options with real cane sugar. The store is clean but rather bottle-necked at the entrance. It was entirely empty when I visited and the staff seemed disinterested or tired, and there was only one. I enjoyed it but am not necessarily eager to return!

Bad, droopy, tasteless lettuce, which is a pretty bad thing to have at a place called Big Salad. Dressings arent very delicious either and I tried a variety. I really wanted to like this place since I eat a lot of salads and its close to me, but its just not good.

Spent over $10 on a salad, which wasnt not huge. I specifically asked for olive oil and vinegar on the side. When I got back to the office I discovered I received a cup of 100% red wine vinegar! 100% vinegar salad did not taste so good. I do not recommend.

Made-to-order salads in front of you. Fresh ingredients and delicious combinations on the menu, or you can create your own. Staff has always been friendly, and the place is never too crowded or too long of a line to get in and out quickly.

Wonderful experience. The staff is always friendly and helpful even suggesting alternate items if I remove something from a salad. Huge portions and so fresh! Will definitely be back!

Love how big the salads are. Made fresh, fast, and friendly. A little pricey, but enjoy the freshness.

$12 for a Maurice salad that had zero flavor. Hope they read this and change their recipe.
