Potbelly's
Italian Salad

Margaret: Why can't everyone do it like Potbelly's? This was the question I asked myself at a pretty nice restaurant we went to over the weekend. Their salad came with lettuce and one tomato....no onions, no peppers, no cukes, no nuthin'. If Potbelly's can do it, why can't everyone else? This salad has a little bit of everything in it, all yummy things and you can just gather all this deliciousness on your fork and eat it. No eating "around" things (like fruit, or gorganzola). And, I was eating this salad for what felt like 20 minutes! You just eat and eat and eat and there's still all this yummy stuff left, so you eat and eat and eat. I have no reason to give this salad anything other than an A. Delish.

John: Romaine, roasted red peppers, chick peas, cucs, grape tomatoes, 4 Italian meats, provolone cheese, artichoke hearts and two kinds of croutons all for $5.29! This was a GREAT salad. Potbelly understands the concept of fresh ingredients. While this may not be the lowest calorie salad in the world - you'll love every bite. There are so many extras that I actually got a forkfull with no lettuce. This salad loses a half point for kinda chewy stale croutons. A-
