saladI got the cobb salad: "grilled chicken, bacon, hard boiled egg, avocado, tomato, cucubmer, iceberg, romaine with dijon vinaigrette."The main thing I did not like about the salad was the dressing. "Dijon vinaigrette" is not a very good description. I'd've called it pesto. It was very thick and oily and green, and I'm not sure there was any vinegar in it. I thought it was bland and oily and I'm very glad I asked for it on the side because the woman ahead of me got mounds of it squirted on her

(Additional note on that: my wife got the purple tomato salad. She had a similar complaint about the 'caramelized onion vinaigrette' on her salad: she said it wasn't very good and it was way too thick.)
Minor complaint: I wish the egg, tomato, and avocado were more chopped up and that they tossed the salad for me. I don't know how you'd mix it up if you were taking this back to work. I took mine home and even in my biggest bowl it was tough to mix.
Praise: I liked everything in the salad (except the dressing). There were plenty of veggies and it's a filling meal for a fair price. If I had to choose between this and the also-recently-opened Jenny's Salad, it would be a tough call. When I come back here (and I will), I might take it home and put my own dressing on it.
