The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
WE WANT TO KNOW: Forget soups. Spring is salad season. Where do you go for your favorite cool, crisp combo of rabbit food?

Sweet Tomatoes. I know it’s a chain but you can make the most amazing salads out of ingredients you’d never keep in your own fridge, or at least you would never keep all of them in your fridge at the same time. I never knew what jicama was until I went there, but now I love it. And since they also have soups, pastas, and desserts, my non-rabbit food eating husband will actually go there with me!

Houstons has a great ahi tuna, avocado, mango salad. Otherwise, I like Doc Greens.

My husband and I both enjoy the chicken salads at Zaxby’s in Roswell. I love the grilled chicken salad with honey mustard and vinagarette dessings combined over it; and my husband likes the blackened and blue chicken with blue cheese dressing. When my friends and I go out to lunch, many times we choose Zaxby’s; they so much enjoy their salads also. They are always so fresh and just yummy. Just wished our Zaxby’s in Roswell had some outdoor seating.

The best salad can be found at my house. My daughter and I are salad junkies!!!! As a matter of fact, all I could eat was salad when I was pregnant with her. That and mexican food.
But, yea, the best salads in town come from my garden, and my house. Fresh, straight from the ground!!!.
Other than my house, I second Sweet Tomatos, and I love Zaxby’s Zalads. But, Ruby Tuesday has the best salad bar in town.

Like many of you have said, my salad is the best. I would have to agree, mine is the best. Now, with that said, someone needs to take these comments and come up with an “out of this world” salad. I too like Houstons tuna salad and Doc Greens..that’s about it. I did recently eat at One Midtown Kitchen and their house salad was delicious. We need non-chain restaurants to step up to the challenge.

I love salad, and I can and do live on it! My favorite quick place to get a salad is Willy’s!! If you like tofu, you should give it a try. The salads are huge! Another good spot for a good salad is CPK, california pizza kitchen, the roasted vegetable salad is really good!

Eatzis had the best salads hands down. No other place in Atlanta will best or replace it!

Y’all may look down on this but my current fave is the new Santa Fe Salad from McD’s. It’s just so good.

I love the Traditional Salad w/ Buttermilk Garlic dressing at Houston’s, and the House Salad at Rafferty’s (in Kennesaw) with their House dressing - a mixture of hot bacon & honey mustard. Yummy!
