Food was good but be careful as the usual indication of GF states a G four contains gluten.

Easy choice for gf needs. Btw if it's labeled G it HAS gluten vs what some may expect that if it's labeled G it's gluten free. I almost ordered focaccia thinking it was gf until my husband pointed out that it was G for has gluten.

My salad with super tasty an amazing.

First person who help me, didn’t quite seem to understand the gluten-free situation.

Second person, understood, better, and explained that the gluten containing items are the very last thing that goes on the salads or bowls in the assembly line. Everything to that point is safe.

Keep an eye on them, though, because they almost toss my salad, with a set of tongs that had only been rinsed and not fully washed.

I recommend that you ask them to skip this step. If I hadn’t been paying attention, that would’ve been super sad.

Overall, food was great, safe, and I enjoyed a fantastic lunch

My daughter with celiac loved the food here and didn’t get sick but it made me a little nervous when the employee asked if she wanted bread with her meal.

I eat here regularly. I feel very safe. Everything with gluten in it is at at the end of the line and easy to avoid. Not worried about cross contamination because they use separate tools for each item on the line.

Very friendly. Very informative. They will wash their hands and change gloves for you as well.

Staff confirmed my meal was GF with another staff member but then asked if I wanted bread when she checked me out. And I was sick afterwards.

Informed the server I had a gluten allergy and she changed her gloves before helping me. Everything on the menu that had gluten was marked. Great salad

Large menu at top of restaurant labels everything that is gluten free. Lots of great salad options. My girlfriend and I each got a different salad and shared: Harvest Bowl and Guacamole Greens. Both were delicious and this comes from someone who is typically unsatisfied eating a salad.

The food is yummy and there are lots of options but you must be HYPER-VIGILANT about keeping the bread out of your bowl. I've said no many times and turned to pay only to have bread mashed into my salad. They remake it for you, but it is a pain.

Excellent fresh and healthy food. Love their gluten free avocado greens salad!

Had never heard of sweetgreen but it was a great find! I didn't get a chance to talk about gluten free options, but I had no issues with the caramelized garlic steak. Can't wait to return!

Wonderful, delicious, healthy, and gluten free! What more could you ask for? All of the servers wore gloves, and gladly changed them for me when I asked. Each ingredient had it's own utensil, so no concern of cross contamination.

Great experience. Was a little unsure at first because the food is out like a salad bar. But except where the small toppings were, there was no gluten to cross-contaminate. As soon as I said I was celiac, the guy changed his gloves and apron. The almonds were near the gluten item, and he asked if I wanted it, I said I didn't want to risk it. And he got almonds from behind the bar in a little to go container.

Meal was delicious. Unless I have a negative experience this week become a go to! Great to have a healthy option near by.

Sweetgreen is a national chain that I have visited many times in Philly. Healthy fast food. Salads and bowls. Most everything is gf except for the bread that they offer as a side. Never been sick.
