You can have your drive-thru and eat healthy too. That seems to be the theme behind Salad and Go‘s rapid expansion across North Texas.
The Arizona-based brand has already lined up a location for its fourth spot in Fort Worth. Coming to 4551 W Bailey Boswell Rd, construction on the 907-square-foot building is expected to start in April and be completed in July.
Founded in 2013 by husband and wife team, Tony and Roushan Christofellis, Salad and Go is not your average drive-thru fast food restaurant. Featuring a creative menu designed by award-winning executive chef Daniel Patino, the brand offers fresh, made-to-order, health-conscious items including salads, wraps, soups and drinks for fairly low prices. Customers are given the option to customize their salads with protein such as chicken, tofu, and shrimp. Its menu also features breakfast items including $2.99 burritos and $1 organic cold brew.
“I wanted to show people that healthy food can taste great and be good for you,” Patino has said. “I wanted to bring the drive of top-notch restaurants to people on a daily basis.”
Apart from its fast, healthy, and low-cost dining concept, the brand is also known for its charity donations. Their local restaurants donate fresh salads weekly to various organizations fighting homelessness and hunger throughout North Texas.
Salad and Go currently has two locations open in Fort Worth – 4601 Diaz Ave and 12556 N Beach St. A third Fort Worth location is expected to open later this month at 6900 Blue Mound Rd.
