👍👍 I was a bit thrown off by the name because I thought I would only find your typical small salads (which personally I don't find very filling). However, this was not the case at all! Food was very filling and very tasty as well! The service was also good, with very attentive and friendly staff. Will...

    Good and fast service, we both got our dishes within like 5 minutes. The vegan sushi bowl looked nice, and the gyros was tasty as well. Only questionable thing was the tzatziki sauce which was watery, but maybe that was the way it should be since it was dressing. Not sure. Overall a nice place to eat after work

    (Translated by Google) Ruffle truffle. Looked like the trash bin during cooking. Tasted like puke. The food itself reminded me of the time I was looking for my garden shears in the bottom of the green container. Crumbling of vegetable residues, rock-hard raw sprouts, slippery kernels, rubber mushrooms and a salty lump of sauce with a bad taste with a sour touch. Rare nasty, shamelessly served. My sister had a green drab drink with it. Warm and so super gross! € 30 cost t. Unbelievable. 1 star, because we have been laughing about it all day. Too absurd. Afrader, stay away. Now at PK coffee and croquettes with bread. Know-Who, normally edible food. (Original) Ruffle truffle. Zag eruit als het afvalbakje tijdens het koken. Smaakte naar kots. Het eten op zich deed me denken aan die keer dat ik mijn tuinschaar aan het zoeken was onderin in de groene container. Samenraapsel van groenteresten, keiharde rauwe spruiten, glibberige pitten, rubberen paddestoelen en een schiftige klont saus met weeïge smaak met een zure touch. Zeldzaam smerig, schaamteloos geserveerd. Mijn zus had een groene drab drank erbij. Warm en zo super goor! €30 kostte t. Ongelooflijk. 1 ster, want we lachen er al de hele dag om. Te absurd. Afrader, wegblijven. Nu bij PK koffie en kroketten met brood. Jeweetwel, normaal eetbaar eten.

    SLA is always such good, healthy, reasonably-priced food. I really like their kimchi bowl and energy balls. Also this location is very cute with some nice places to sit - located in the mall

  • 5/5 Claire G. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A fine location in Hoog-Catarijne. Employees are friendly. Even when something was wrong with a friend's salad, the staff solved that well. Top service. Salads from SLA are always nice. Only sad thing is that there is no toilet in this establishment. (Original) Een fijne locatie in Hoog-Catarijne. Medewerkers zijn vriendelijk. Ook toen er een keer iets mis was met een vriendinnetje haar salade, loste de medewerkers dat goed op. Top service. Salades van SLA zijn altijd fijn. Enige jammere is dat er geen toilet is in deze vestiging.

    It took 30minuten waiting time two drinks. They forgot where we sat at. When we leave the girl just busy at her phone. It was not a busy time! Only 4 table filled with customer the rest was empty and no take away as well.

    I have visited SLA many times and is always a must go whenever I visit the Netherlands. It’s food that you eat and makes you feel happy! Probably the best salad/Buddha bowl spot I have ever been to!

  • 4/5 Florentina L. 6 years ago on Google
    Pro: Great salad mixes. Cons: everything is cold, I ordered falafel and I expected it to be warm.

  • 5/5 Joe D. 4 years ago on Google
    First time that we went there today, won't be the last. It was really tasty and also filling (usually I find portions rather small and get hungry soon after, not here, I appreciate that). Being a vegan I was very happy with the wide variety that I could choose from. Also cozy place. Top!

  • 5/5 Natalia C. 5 years ago on Google
    One of my favourites places to a quick and healthy meal in Utrecht. They have a lot of vegan options, including deserts. The ingredients are always very fresh and tasty. You can choose one of the salads from the menu or you can make your own salad. Try the smoked tofu as extra option in your personalized salad.

  • 2/5 Lex S. 10 months ago on Google
    Meh… food is fine and location good off course. But took more then 20m to bring our order. To be clear; that’s fine if we would know. It’s busy. However, when we ordered we were 2nd in line with only 1 person waiting so no way to know it was busy. Also they brought our drinks after ten minutes or so and did not mention the food at all. Left us guessing if they forgot… Just communicate :)

    Not tasty and old vegetables my friend ordered homemade drink tasted like water every thing was disappointed comparing to the price.. And the people who work there are not the best

  • 1/5 JJF 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I bought a salad here a number of times and the size of the portions varies a lot. Ordered the Japanese Dundori today and someone else for me too. The amount between the two varied greatly and with me there was far too little for a normal meal, and then the price of 13.5 is really too much. (Original) Een aantal keer hier een salade gekocht en de grootte van de porties varieert nogal. Vandaag de Japanese Dundori besteld en iemand anders voor mij ook. De hoeveelheid tussen beide varieerde sterk en bij mij zat er veel te weinig in voor een normale maaltijd, en dan is de prijs van 13.5 echt veel te veel.

    (Translated by Google) Delicious salads for a small price. Too bad the cakes are no longer sold. Matcha latte I got today was tasteless and limp. Too bad because last time it was delicious. Maybe instruct the new staff better. (Original) Heerlijke salades voor een kleine prijs. Jammer dat de taartjes niet meer verkocht worden. Matcha latte die ik vandaag meekreeg was smaakloos en slap. Jammer want de vorige keer was het heerlijk. Misschien het nieuwe personeel beter instrueren.

  • 2/5 Oelinda 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I have rarely been so disappointed in my lunch. Ordered a salad with vegan gyros in the morning. The gyros was rock hard (according to an employee that was supposed to be) and ingredients anything but fresh. Tasted as if it had been cut in the display case for days. For a salad for 11 euros you would at least expect fresh products. I even left my flat white, weak coffee. Two stars is also a mild score (Original) Ik ben zelden zo teleurgesteld geweest in m’n lunch. In de ochtend een salade besteld met vegan gyros. De gyros was keihard (volgens een medewerkster hoorde dat zo) en ingrediënten allesbehalve vers. Proefde alsof het al dagen aangesneden in de vitrine lag. Voor een salade voor 11 euro zou je toch op z’n minst verse producten verwachten. Zelfs m’n flat white heb ik laten staan, slappe koffie. Twee sterren is overigens nog een milde score

👍👍 What an amazing venue! We came to watch My Morning Jacket from the UK after watching them in Manchester, a few days earlier. While I do love a bit of the O2 Ritz Manchester, this venue blew it away completely... Great smoking area too! Cheap bar prices and the sound was incredible in the Grote Zaal...
