“That right there is the perfect salad,” raved my friend who brought me here for lunch today. Since 2010 she’s come here regularly to build her own salad and said she was pretty sure a couple of the staff had been there since then! It’s true, Roberta at the register happily enthused, staff love working here. Pedro at the grill and Artak working the front room have worked here over a decade. This is a small business that’s thrived on this corner since 2005, surviving the pandemic with its loyal staff and clients, some of whom come 5 days a week and are known by name! The owner’s name is Brian and he’s behind the success of this restaurant which is in a class by itself. What makes it stand out: a chef develops fresh toppings and options which they put out for tourists on the weekends (it’s a satellite restaurant for Mall at Millenia) but they keep the favorites for the weekdays, and the regulars keep coming back. The price for a salad is unmatched in Orlando in my experience. I built a large vegetarian salad which included a choice of base and five toppings for <$8. Instead of a dressing they allowed me to choose a sixth topping! I chose the marinated mushrooms which had enough marinade to flavor my salad. Loved the pickled onions, quinoa, fresh corn and variety of cheeses offered. There were more appealing toppings than I could get to in one visit. My friend got the grilled chicken, feta, bell peppers, and more. She said the freshness and variety of ingredients here have kept her coming back. Salt and pepper grinders were available. Loved that I felt I’d eaten healthily today and could control what went onto my plate. There were all kinds of patrons, not just health-conscious but a few carnivores, too. Greens and Grille also offered themed salads to order by name, crazy good wraps, soups and desserts for every appetite. Beer and wine were posted at 2-for-1 all day every day! Plus cold brew coffee, fountain drinks and a fridge case of bottled juices and other beverages. The high ceilings, modern chandeliers, expansive ordering area where you can watch them mix your salad in a bowl (like at Giardinos but this is more glamorous) or grill your sandwich/wrap ingredient, floor to ceiling windows, tropical flowering bushes and clean tables inside and out made dining here a pleasure. “It feels like Beverly Hills,” I mused, and my friend concurred. We ate outside and the weather was perfect. Artak checked on us three times with a courteous smile. The team were all in good spirits today, a busy Saturday. I’ll definitely return, even though it’s a drive, because we come to the Mall at Millennia and my picky husband and I will both be able to find something delicious on the menu here. Highly recommended!

I walked in and it was busy. The staff was welcoming and very kind! I had a wonderful experience. We ordered a Turkey wrap, hummus, Turkey breast and broccoli. Everything was delicious. The hummus was my favorite!
