The Souplantation here is sometimes a little understaffed with a lack in enthusiasm but if youre looking for a cheap, healthy buffet, this isnt a bad choice. There is a small parking structure besides the restaurant as well as street parking (Easier to find during the night). Dinner, look to pay around $10 per person without a beverage. If youre looking to get Takeout, you need to pay first now before you can get your to-go box. Otherwise, the experience is fairly nominal - get a tray/plate - pile on the salads, pay, get your soups/pastas/breads/drinks and find a seat. Usually on the weekdays, the area is fairly quiet as well.

This is my go-to place when I feel like eating healthy. Theres barely any meat in their menu. Soups, salads and mostly carbs through bread and pasta. Its a decent place to go for AYCE. The soups are a hit and a miss so its a good thing theres several to choose from. They have a variety of drinks too. One thing I do NOT like about this place which is not the restaurants fault is that there are too many undisciplined kids running around. Or babies crying. So therefore this Souplantation is definitely not a quiet one. In this expensive town called Brentwood when validated self parking is provided this is definitely a bonus.

It Is one of the best buffets with a cool desgin. Food is at a reasonable price there. Every month they have have different foods served there for a limited time. They have a sauce bar where you can put some ranch or etc. on your salad. Sometimes kids from with there parents Kenter Canyon the local school come here for gatherings outside or In. Sides at this buffet that are available year-round are macaroni, and small pizza slices. Parking is underground the restaurant and there is stairs leading up to where the shops and souplantation is. The staff are friendly too. Be sure to come here!

Recently embarked on my first trip to Souplantation since the mid-1990s, and its changed quite a bit since since then. I loved the vast selection of salad, soups, sides, appetizers, drinks, and desserts before; that array of items seems to have decreased to just salad, soup, and a few random additions. The salad bar choices were highly lacking in any variety or adventure, and the cuisine overall seemed reminiscent of a hospital cafeteria rather than the fantastic buffet I remember from when I was a kid. Not a terrible trip, but not something Ill plan on again anytime soon, if ever.

Not sure what I was expecting out of a Souplantation, but my experience where was disappointing even with my low standards. The pre-made salads at the beginning of the salad bar were soggy and looked unappetizing. I usually only get the tuna pasta salad and broccoli salad. Both werent as good as i remembered. Out of the soups offered I only enjoyed the Yankee Clam Chowder. Of course, I couldnt leave Souplantation without grabbing a couple of their blueberry muffins. The prices have increased and I probably wont be coming back again.

As far as soup plantation dining goes, this is a decent one. Has all the basics and is very clean. If you are from our of town, dont put this on your list. With the price now approaching the same price as tender greens and other salad locations...unless you need an all you can eat setting... You will get a higher quality dining experience at tender greens for the same price. They need to lower their price model or deliver a higher quality product because since they opened, there are now better salad restaurant offerings.

Delicious food; lots of variety. Buffet. Easily eat as healthfully as you wish, but there are plenty of options for those who are taking a break from diets. Salads (prepared and create your own), soups, baked options (potatoes and sweet potatoes, breads, pizza like things, muffins, cornbread), pasta, desserts. The strawberry lemonade is delicious. Join their email club for frequent coupons to avoid paying full price. They also validate parking to reduce your expenditures there.

I recently went here for the first time, and there was one thing that was better than anything else there; the salad bar. Souplantation has THE best salad bar Ive been to. The soups are amazing, and you simply must try the pizza and garlic bread. The sundae bar is the cherry on top. The price, of course, is amazing as well - 10 dollars per person for unlimited food and drinks.

This is a clean and somewhat busy location ... its fairly inexpensive for an all you can eat salad bar, with 5-6 soup selections and some side dishes and deserts. Its not for the gourmet ... but it gets the job done for cheap eats if youre looking for relatively healthy, vegan/vegetarian/gluten free.

Everyone here in SoCal was shocked to hear that an out of state kid like me had never been. Well, when I got here I realized it was just a Sweet Tomatoes and everyone calmed down. Its funny how in my youth my meal was no salad, and now the salad is the bulk of what I eat. Time is a flat circle.

The worst souplnatation I ever been to. They had only 1 lane open with long line of ~22 people in line. Ran out of eggs. The corn and beans containers were empty. Vegetarian soup was lacking lots of vegetables. Had to wait for pizza. I complained to Mgr. She replied "i know we were busy tonite"

Have been going to this Souplantation since I was a toddler. Many a birthday and many a memlry spent here. Love the rotating menu. Parking easy below with validation. Renovated interior. And dont forget to come for dinner and get one of the hot desserts. Yum.

This place is cool. The only thing Im not a fan of is when the person in front of you takes forever to progress. This place is clean and has plenty of space for your face. The staff is very unfriendly too, and they do a legit job of refilling stuff.

The place was crazy, understaffed, messy, half of the bins were empty, we had to wait for everything, there was no ice in the ice maker and the people were rude. Other than that, it was a typical visit with the same old carbo-load food.

Exactly what you would expect from any souplatations. This place does not have surface parking like other locations and you will need to park it in the malls underground garage and then get it validated when you pay for the bill.

Is a nice restaurant, with a great buffet. You get pizza, salads, and, of course, soup. The food was nice enough, and the salad variety is incredibly good. Definitely a nice place to go and have a lunch if you are on a budget.

This is a decent Souplantation location. They constantly refill any items that run out. The place is clean and in a good neighborhood. One thing that confuses me is that they do not offer sliced chicken breast at the salad bar.
