Sweet Melissa's: Delicious & Generous Portions, But Skimpy Dressing We finally tried Sweet Melissa's and really liked it! The Tuscan Chicken and Bacon & Bleu salads were incredible. The portions are enormous, we got two meals out of each salad and felt completely full both times. They are extremely generous with the salad ingredients and toppings, which was a pleasant surprise. The only significant downside is the EXTREMELY SMALL serving of dressing. Given the MASSIVE size of the salads, the amount of dressing provided is insufficient; it barely touches the surface. The dressings themselves are delicious, but the portion size is far too small to adequately dress the full salad. I highly recommend providing a significantly larger standard dressing portion (like 2-3 times the current size). We learned we can purchase extra, and we will do so next time, but we hope the standard serving is increased soon. We loved the food and will absolutely be returning!!

Wonderful atmosphere and very welcoming. Service was speedy and and on point. Even though the establishment has grown in size with what looks like wolf be the kitchen and a new location. I couldn't honestly tell much was changed in the way of seating INSIDE. Seating looked to be slightly added outside too. Appears as though about 1/4 of the dining was removed to add too the kitchen for better and speedier service. I can honestly say the changes aren't at all bad. It's breathe of fresh air while still keeping the ground of where they came from. It's always great to see such a healthy and delicious food doing so well it helps a business expand. I can honestly say I got a quinoa bowl with chicken and bacon and it was well worth every penny. My only request would be adding depth to the bowl for greater goodness. That said the food the taste, the full factor, the appeal of both food and establishment is a WORTHY trip. Even if you're not health conscious but wasn't that occasional deliciously salivating-eat till your HEART is content then please go check sweet Melissa's good eats and have a nice filling meal KNOWING it wasn't just great tasting but also good for you.

The salads are great!!! Only four stars because while the wraps appear giant, the actually tortilla wrap doesn’t fit around it and everything was falling out. This is not a place for people who don’t like sitting in high top tables as there is not much seating and only one lower top table. There are a few tables outside that are Lower but you have to hope it’s not too hot! It would probably just make it much easier if the location was different as there isn’t much space for seating or parking. But if you’re looking for a good salad, this is the spot!
