The folks at sweetgreen say that they are in the business of feeding people, and they feed them well with simple, seasonal food. But that’s not all you can feel good about with this restaurant; they are equally concerned with how food is prepared, where it comes from, and their impact on the community and environment. sweetgreen's six core values are just as important as their menu items, and focus on sustainability, authenticity, and passion for everything they serve.

Try one of their warm bowls with organic wild rice or quinoa and layered with raw and cooked vegetables, protein, and dressing, or try one of their fresh salads like the kale Caesar or Guacamole Greens. You might also make your own with tons of fresh ingredients to choose from, and because of sweetgreen’s focus on seasonality, there are special menu items that rotate based on the availability of ingredients.
