I ordered a Cobb salad at two popular chains: Saladworks and Sweetgreen.
The Avocado Cobb salad at Saladworks seemed to be made with fresh ingredients and tasted great.

Saladworks and Sweetgreen both offer fresh salads with fast service at similar prices.

To see how they compare, I visited both restaurants and ordered Cobb salads from their menus that were as similar as possible.

Here's what I thought about both Cobb salads.

I'll definitely return to Saladworks in the future.Ted Berg
