Daily Greens

I can’t give it 5 cause I’m reserving that for a truly amazing restaurant. BUT. This place has good breakfast and lunch options. My co-​worker refers to the salads as «Buckets of salads». The dressing applied to the salad is just barely covering the greens, but, that is less fattening. The deli (?) also has wraps and sandwiches and, if your lucky, several Asian dishes. This deli is much better then the deli that resides at 605 Herndon Parkway. That place smells terrible. It’s the worst «Deli» in the area”

Fresh, friendly, fast and in the same building as ManTech. That last part made finding Daily Greens a bit tricky, but once you see their neon OPEN sign, you know you’ve come to the right place.
It can be a bit overwhelming looking at the wall mounted menu at first, but give yourself a few minutes and you’ll be pleasantly surprised. First of all, I really like that they show you how many calories each item is (I’m not sure if that includes salad dressing/​sauces though). Second, I like that you can fully customize your salad and add standard things like portobello mushrooms and blue cheese. I also noticed that they serve a wide variety of other items which include bulgolgi and lo mein (My coworker who went there before me informed me that he wasn’t able to get the bulgolgi on his salad despite what the menu said). Third they have a really sweet selection of chips and that means a lot to me for some reason.
Anyhow, I ordered the East Coast Vegetarian Wrap. It cost about six bucks and was filled with a nice vinaigrette, avocados, tomatoes, lots of lettuce and some kind of cheese. It was a solid wrap, but next time I’ll probably opt for a salad that I can build myself.
Last, I just want to say how friendly their staff was. Seriously, the seemed to know everyone who came in by name and what they usually ordered. The lady behind the counter who saw me taking a picture of their menu smiled and ran around the counter to hand me one of theirs.
Can’t wait to go back and try some more stuff!
