Giardino Gourmet Salads

I work in the shopping center but even if I didn’t I’d come here all the time anyway. The food is always amazing and the staff and management are AWESOME. love love love this place. Great salad wrap and grain bowls. I recommend the habanero salad and the Gardner grain bowl. The tropical chicken is also amazing.

I absolutely love the salads at this restaurant! They started with one store and now several throughout south Florida. My fav salad is Mama Mia! Everyone is extremely nice and helpful and this location. Fabian is my favorite! You can even call ahead and place an order so your salad is available when you arrive. Highly recommend!!!

Great spot, great service, delicious salads! My favorite salad spot. My
Favorite is always the fizz

Wow amazing ! I really appreciated the customer service ! Thanks for the chips I live right around the corner and this is my go to place for the most freshest salads !

I have eaten there several times in the past few weeks. Props on the portion size and prices are resonable. Please get rid of all the plastic containers and use recyclable containers no one cares if they can see the salad in the container. Also please crisp your lettuce after prepping it. Salad is so much better with a chill on it when eating. Your prep table is not keeping it at proper temp.
I also do not like the powder puff croutons, not sure if you prep fresh or buy from a purveyor. Overall I will continue to patronize this local owned business.

So… I don’t eat a lot of salads. I’m trying to change that, because people say you’re supposed to. My doctor yells at me for being too jacked and says to eat more vegetables. He just doesn’t understand the swole-​life of a rugby player.
Anyway, my mom is the first one who told me about this place. I think it’s across the street from where she spends obscene amounts of money on her hair and thats how she found it.
When I do eat a salad I don’t find it all that appetizing to get it from Publix or any fast food place. I feel like the whole «eating fresh» thing is negated by the more-​than-​likely-​accurate assumption that my salad has been sitting in a box in some fridge for possibly 12 hours or more, and beyond that options are limited with these pre-​made salads. That’s where Giardino’s comes in…
You can pretty much get anything you want in your salad. They have plenty of pre-​designed salads to choose from or you can just design your own. They come in very large portions as well, which is cool because salad leaves a lot to be desired when I want to be full… and I generally enjoy large amounts of food. As I see it, and taste it, everything here is very fresh. I’ve never had a bad salad from here. The way the experience works is kind of like Cold Stone. same physical setup really. You order at the little glass case, turn a corner and the person is there making your salad in front of you. They give it to you in sealed bowl and you are on your way. I’ve never eaten inside because it’s pretty small. They do have an app, which you use to scan your receipts and accrue points to be redeemed later for salad credit or something.
Solid salads.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! I use to go to the Miracle Mile location but their service and food quality have declined immensely. This location is clean, the food is always on point and the staff are ALWAYS courteous and pleasant. I drive from Coral Way just to get my salad and soup fix. Keep up the great work!

The Thai peanut salad (I believe it’s called the Thai Thai) — need I say more? This is what I always get here, and it’s scrumptious, tasty, and feels good for the body.

If you are looking for a «make your own salad» kind of place, this is the o I love you one I’ve found in Miami. The turkey curry is tasty. They have a good selection of toppings. Service is fast and friendly. Prices could be a little better but they are fresh ingredients so it’s worthy, especially if you are trying to be healthy in this city ;) and they deliver!

This is not the first time I’ve been to this location but it will never be my last either. The service is great, I’m always greeted by the employees and they are extremely patient when I have trouble deciding between all the amazing choices! Today I went with a Thai Thai with chicken for an amazing post workout meal! It’s packed with protein and they accommodated to my need for very little dressing. I absolutely love this place and I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a healthy yummy meal!

My favorite salad place! Love the variety they offer. Dressings are delicious, and can always be purchased at the restaurant if wanted. Crab Louis is my ultimate favorite! Love the app they have, always getting points towards my next salad! Definitely hooked!

I wasn’t much of a salad person until I had Giardino’s. They make the best salads and wraps. You can make any salad into a wrap and if you don’t like any that are on the wall, you can make your own. Their dressings are great too! They also have bowls with rice or quinoa.
All of their ingredients are so fresh and delicious. The service is always quick and the staff is polite.
I love love love the Thai Thai salad. It’s delicious! Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, I added curry turkey and WOW! Amazing! Try try the Thai Thai!

Have tried both locations and both of them are great. very fresh products, lots of variety, and delicious Taste !
Of course, if u want to eat healthy, you need to be willing to pay the price, 10 $ per salad which includes a scoop of protein,
My personal fav the fizz, with the garlic on the side .
The only con is the size of the scoop of protein
Ps the croutons are deliciously addicting

I just want to say I am never coming back to any giardino. This place is a sorry excuse for a salad especially when ur little boy salad server creates a salad with a mountain of lettuce, barely any vegetables, (mind u i get no meat), and when I ask him if he can add more vegetables cuz its just lettuce, he looks at me with a stank face and says «um they are serving size».and does nothing about it, on top of that giving me attitude and a sorry salad mostly just lettuce. He even assumed it was to go after our little episode. After that, this place convinced me it was a JOKE. The service ruined my experience. Word of mouth travels fast and dude ur lucky that I did not slap u over the salad counter. Get some manners.

Amazing selection of salads and sandwiches. The Thai Thai salad with curry turkey is so delicious! This is definitely my new favorite spot to have a healthy lunch! Friendly staff, too!

Love this place. They always have a great staff and usually very quick service. The salad and toppings are always fresh and crisp. My 3 year old son gets the good grains bowls. I usually get the Thai Thai with a scoop of tropical chicken salad. The Thai Thai peanut dressing is great and has some heat to it. Only thing I would like to see would be a lowfat salad dressing.

The is a great fast salad place. Salads are always a little pricy and these are no exception but if you want a quick healthy lunch I would try this. Haven’t tried and of the sandwiches or grain bowls but am looking forward to trying them.

Always have a pleasant experience here. Food is great. Service is fantastic. I will definitely go back.

I use to love eating here. I worked nearby so I would go there at least once or twice a week as well as my co-​workers. We started noticing around May or so that every time we would eat there, some of us would get sick. On 7÷30÷14, I finally ended up in the emergency room at South Miami Hospital with food poisoning. I called the Manager the next and advised I had gotten sick the day before. He barely offered an apology much less a refund on my salad. Needless to say, I have not eaten there since (neither have my co-​workers) and NEVER WILL AGAIN.
I never post reviews (this is my first), but after my extensive medical bills which I am still paying for, I figured people should know that you may get sick from eating there! I wish I could give it NO STARS!!!

While the wraps and salads here are, for the most part, delicious, I am a bit disappointed by the visits I’ve made to Giardino’s following my first.
Today, I decided to order in the same wrap I ordered the last time I visited. The wrap had cost me about $ 8 after taxes and the drink brought it to $ 11 total with tip. However, today my wrap came out to $ 10.95. Um… What?
I feel like I got hustled because I ordered over the phone instead of going in person (it’s next door to my work place and I didn’t want to waste my break time ordering in store). I was charged an extra 75c for choosing spinach instead of lettuce as me «green», and 65c for croutons since wraps don’t normally come with croutons. They were out of flaxseed again as well so I only got 3 out of my 4 toppings.
Now, why am I being charged differently for the same wrap ordered just days before? And why did I get a ziplock bag with croutons as opposed to having them in my wrap like I ordered???
I have to admit, the sweet bread croutons really were the highlight of the meal today. They are delicious!!!
If I come back over here, I’ll probably just get some croutons. 5 stars for taste, but you lose 2 stars for static pricing.
