Reviews for Tender Greens in San Diego, CA
I have been here a few times now and each time I say I won't come back. I decided to give it another go and thought I would come... right when they opened. My thought was the food would be super hot and fresh. I walked in and was the first customer of the day.I ordered the steak, mashed potatoes, veggies and bread. I was so hopeful and disappointed so fast. The steak was literallycold. How is this possible if they just opened? When was my steak actually cooked? Needless to say it was medium well and was sotough I couldn't eat it. The veggies were definitely the best thing on the plate but as you see in the photo they gave me verylittle. The bread is supposed to be this toasted bread but was just a cold piece of bread. The mashed potatoes were good, justcold again. I just don't know if they pre-make everything ahead of time ? I just don't understand why it wasn't at least warmedup. So the staff was friendly and the restaurant itself has a good vibe and is always clean. I am just disappointed with theprice of food and the quality I keep getting. I am not sure if I'll be back. Read more
I really enjoy the food at all their restaurants. This one in particular, although good felt more like a fast food ... experience. The dishes were served surprisingly fast, which by the taste and texture made me wonder if perhaps were madeahead of time and then assembled upon order received. The meat was cold and the salmon was dry, is why I suspect the former. The staff was very nice, though. Read more
Excellent food, fast, and friendly service. Both the chicken and steak were perfectly cooked. Moist, tender, and juicy.
Going past the Liberty Hill Market area on the way to the airport and decided to drive in and look for a place to eat. We... weren?t disappointed. This is a great lunch place. Their Original, a chicken sandwich on ciabatta was delicious. Hubby got theChef?s Bowl with chipotle bowl and said it was great. Service was fast, helpful and friendly, which always makes the experienceeven better. Read more
Probably my favorite place to eat in SD when you want to "eat out" but also not break the bank and sit down at a restaurant. The... food comes out like a home cooked meal and tastes amazing. I usually stick to the plates with chicken, salmon or steak. I dowish the protein portions were a little larger for the price, but still reasonable and a super diet friendly place. I leavefeeling full but not bloated which is always a good feeling when you spend money to eat out. Employees are always superfriendly, honestly don't have a bad thing to say about this place. ????

We have not been here for a while and decided to pick up dinner. Used to be one of our favorite places. Hubby had the tuna... plate. There was plenty of food and he said it was delicious. I had the Chicken Harvest Salad (hubby was gifted the chicken)and I was a bit underwhelmed to be honest. For a dinner salad that cost $15, I would have expected a little more of it, andmaybe not have so many stems. Read more
If your looking for a super fresh place for lunch, look no further. This place is soooo good. I had lemonade mint tea and steak... Mediterranean salad. I got the cilantro lime salad dressing. Everyone was super welcoming and helpful. They cleaned up thetables quick. The food was really good and had great flavors. I would highly recommend. Read more
I would not recommend tender greens to anyone. It was extremely overpriced, average food, small portions, and the amount of... lettuce they gave me as a salad was a joke. You will be better off eating at sweetgreens. Read more
