lowrider Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 I agree 110%!! I miss the RT salad of "old". OMGOSH ~ YES it was!!! About 35 years ago we would drive from Heflin, AL to Birmingham, AL just to eat at Steak and Ale. The BEST salad bar EVER. And, the prime rib was !! ME TOO!! Still get one when go to the Sonny's on Cobb Pkwy. As far as the Hickory Hut....when we moved here in 1996 we heard SOOOOO much about this place. Went one time....the LAST time, too!!! YES it is........IF it is fresh!!! And, that is hit and miss. I've had it several times with their new Wedge Salad and it was good. On the contrary I've gotten it several times when it was SO salty I couldn't eat it. The high sodium means it has been sitting a day or two. THANKS for everyone's input and I will definitely keep it in mind. And, when I want a Greek Salad I will try either Mellow Mushroom or Olive Tree. The BEST I've ever had was at Mata's Greek Pizza and Grinders in Anniston, AL. The salad with their supreme pizza is to die for and always on the agenda when we go "home". I suggest the greek salad from Mellow Mushroom, you get a lot more and the dressing is homemade. The Olive Tree is so-so and small and the dressing is watered down. I haven't been there in over a year because it's overpriced and the portions are small and just not that good. AND I did put some Monterey Jack on the salad with a combo of ranch and Russian dressing. YUMM . Link to post Share on other sites
ButterflyLion Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 I've heard of some restaurants that have a garden in the back where they grow many of their salad ingredients fresh. I wonder where the closest one is .... Link to post Share on other sites
feelip Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 I love the California salad (not sure that is what it is called there) and their new Wedge Salad with French Onion Soup. I ended up getting the Zaxby's House zalad with fried chicken. Was good but just did not hit the spot. Half of it is in the frig. I am impatiently waiting for them to return their Zenzation Zalad. One of my all time FAV salads!!! THANKS for all the suggestions! That's a pretty good salad if you have them hold those nasty onion things. Link to post Share on other sites

dana Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 I also like the Brer bear salad at Briar Patch. If your not in the mood for meat, the Brer rabbit is good too. Link to post Share on other sites
bluebonnet Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 I like the Greek salad at Jim n Nicks. I get the dinner size and you can add your choice of meats. Always fresh and good. Chick-fila had great Southwest salad, but they discontinued it. Bummer. I miss it. Link to post Share on other sites

orrby Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 (edited) Route 61 had a great hickory salad last time we went and it was not to badly priced. Tasted a lot like Briar Patch but cost less. I have heard the new BBQ on 92 has great hickory salads and taters, not sure my self have not been there. But my family really liked the Route 61.. I like Texas Road house salads as well. Most anywhere that has homemade dressing, is going to have a tasty salad. Edit: Now you guys have me wanting a Salad.. Maybe there will be good salads at the beach..
