Welcome to our kitchen!
Two chefs and a foodie set out to change the way people eat for the better. Our inspiration? The meals we had when our friends came over. The food. The pairings. The exploration. The energy. And the promise that on any given day we’d eat or drink something we wouldn’t find anywhere else. So we opened Tender Greens in 2006 and started a food revolution.
We start with the best ingredients, cook from the heart and let our food do the talking. No compromises, no matter what. Sustainability is at the core of all the choices we make, from our food to our planet to the future of farming. It’s in our DNA. After all, we’re chefs.

Food is decent, slightly overpriced and lots of oil on it.

My first time here I ordered the chipotle salad and agua fresca it was delicious. Staff was friendly and checked on my table a couple times during my visit. I also ordered an avocado toast to take home with me.

You’ll have to wait a lot longer than you expect. I’ve used both pick up and delivery services at this restaurant. In the case of pick up, it was more than 20 minutes behind the maximum time I reserved, and for delivery, it took 2 hours. But the staff here don’t seem to care at all about late orders, and they always seem relaxed. Being relaxed isn’t a bad thing, but it’s a pretty unpleasant experience to be overly relaxed even though they’re wasting customers’ time. The food in this restaurant is very good and delicious, but the service of the clerks seems to be very poor.

Friendly staff, quick service — went around 1:30pm on Tuesday and the place was practically empty, but they were busy preparing online orders. They have some seasonal items as well so might check those out next time.

Love their outdoor patio. I stopped ordering dinner plates because they became too greasy and overly salted. Now I just get a salad and ask for now salt. It’s a bummer they removed the salad with that chives dressing because the dressing was soooo good.

The greens were quite fresh and tasty with plenty of zesty lemon dressing. The fried chicken plate was crunchy and hearty, although it could be less salty. The seared tuna plate was done just right with thick pieces of pretty fresh fish. I think the prices were very reasonable for the quality and atmosphere

I’ve eaten here dozens of times because I really like the food, but lately the portions are getting much to small for the price. If you want enough protein to leave satisfied, it will run you ~$25.

Their food is so good. This is my mom’s favorite, so sometimes I order delivery for her through Uber Eats. The food is always fresh, tasty, and nicely packaged. They also have great options for food allergy issues and will customize your order to help you avoid a variety of allergens. My favorite so far was the tuna niçoise and the salmon. They have refreshing watermelon agua fresca as well. I wish they had a location near me.
