| - Salad: Red Raspberry Spinach Salad
Location: Norterra Pheonix, AZ
Price: $9.49
Pros: Seemed organic, claimed house made, natural salads and so and such. Happy to know that Zupas created soups and salad dressing from scratch.
Cons: Initial order was for 1/2 salad-Red Raspberry Spinach Salad. But I changed mind in 30 secs and asked for full salad (due to lack of sandwich options) The manager-in-charge (the great!) decided to switch 1/2 salad bowl to full salad and call it 'that's easy' by adding a handful of spinach. I was shocked & had a conflicting thoughts as to may be there is more or may be I'm missing something..blah blah! But the bowl is moved from one end to another just with a spoonful of pistachios and some grapes (cheap stuff) and i opt out for blue cheese - they load the salad with sugary raspberry proclaimed salad dressing. And I ask for cranberry, which comes with this particular salad. But, guess what! they charge an extra 1.49 on this and make my bill for what? let's say a-big-handful of spinach, teaspoon of pistachio, teaspoon of grapes, big scoop of cheap dressing = $9.49 Argh! I ask 'is this it?' at the register and the untrained not-courteous-at-all guy at register just wants my card says nothing at all. I feel cheated, robbed and hungry looking at this spinach salad. I pay and decide to never return.
Lesson learnt: if I'm dying and all resturants are closed in the town if only this is open I might go and if I did I'll buy only a 1/2 salad. And the dressings are too much of sugar - not close to what they have claimed as healthy stuff. Lastly, don't bother taking vegetarian friends coz there is not a single decent & healthy sandwich that you can make it a vegetarian version. And the salads will starve you to death ;-)
My request: Please make your salad portions fair (read more healthy and quality veg, fruits, nuts) Please add more veg sandwich options And freaggin make more veg soups other than the classic tomato soups.
