They were founded in 2005 and have since experienced rapid growth.[2] The average dinner check is $14, which includes a protein, and a beverage such as lemonade or organic tea. But a basic salad costs $8 and wraps start at $7. [3]
History
[edit]Berge Simonian opened the original Salata in the underground tunnel system in Downtown Houston after a previous restaurant concept had an increasingly growing salad bar. Since the salad bar was becoming more and more popular, he decided to focus on it and perfect it.[4]
