Pretty disappointed from this last experience at tender greens.
This used to be my favorite dish.
This time the chicken was bone dry and flavorless.
The seasonal veggies consisted of just carrots and a few mushrooms, and the overall taste was just not good.
Not sure what has happened to the quality of the food here.
What a disappointment..

Review of Tender Greens: "I'm quite disappointed with my recent experience at Tender Greens.
I'm not sure what has changed, but the quality seems to have drastically declined.
I ordered a salmon and chicken meal to-go, and to my dismay, both the salmon and chicken were overcooked, losing their natural flavors and juiciness.
Additionally, the salad was a letdown – it was wilted and frankly inedible.
This is not the Tender Greens I remember from the past.
I hope they can address these issues soon."

The food is nothing special, just classic American food.
I ordered the tuna and it was genuinely pretty good, but the prices were a bit high.
The seating was not very comfortable and it was a bit cold inside the restaurant.
However, the cashier was relatively friendly.
In terms of the food, I felt that the portions were a bit small so I wish they gave a bit more veggies, which wouldn't add to their costs too much but would also feel more like a meal.
