I love Chopped Leaf and it has become one of my go-to places if I want to grab lunch out. Their options for customization are endless, and their set menu for each bowl or salad is amazing as well. What I love most about their menu is the range of vegetarian options while still providing choices for those who want meat or fish. You can even customize your protein by adding tofu, falafel, avocado, tuna, steak, or quinoa to your meal.
I love their Bangkok bowl, which is in the picture. It became my go-to choice when I am there. The edamame beans taste delightful, and their brown basmati rice is always warm when it is served. Each bite is flavorful and I cannot get enough of it. The other bowls I have tried are the Santa Fe, Sunshine, Mediterranean, and Harvest. They all are unique. With such a vast variety, you can still try new things and find them delicious or just stick to your top choice.
One thing that always stands out is the dressing that comes with the bowl. They are all delicious and you cannot seem to get enough of them. Truly, the variety is endless. What is also good is that if bowls are not what you want, you can try their salads, quesadillas, or sandwiches.
One small issue I have is that sometimes the salad portion of the bowl is not that fresh. The leaves are a little tinted brown, where it is not that flavorful or gives a slight sour taste. This is not to say that the leaves are spoiled or rotten, but rather they are not as fresh as I wanted, which is a bit upsetting. I feel if the vegetables and ingredients were a tad bit fresher, I might have rated this a bit higher. However, everything else is a plus. Especially the rice, the dressing, and the priority of options are the reasons why I still constantly go there.
Overall, I recommend this place to those who want something quick and easy to eat. It fills you up with nutrition and is not something saturated or unhealthy. It is something that can make your stomach feel happy after eating it. It is one of those places where the food feels very wholehearted and made with love, care, and nature.
