Sfo Ladle And Leaf T3

I browsed through 5 to 8 different restaurants at the airport before choosing Ladle Leaf. The variety of healthy options, like bowls, salads, and soups, really caught my eye. I was pleased to see tofu on the menu and decided to try the Asian tofu salad. It was packed with greens, cabbage, carrots, edamame, crunchy wontons, and a sesame ginger dressing. I can honestly say it was one of the most flavorful salads I've ever had! The portion sizes were generous, making it a great value. I also sampled a bowl of the tomato bisque, which was absolutely delicious. It came with a baguette and was garnished with cilantro, which added a lovely touch. I would happily dine at this restaurant even if it weren’t in the airport, it was that good! I will definitely return here for another meal if I have a layover in San Francisco.

The menu clearly states that one substitution is allowed per salad. When I asked to substitute avocado for the apple, I was abruptly informed that there would be an extra charge. I pointed out that the menu didn’t mention anything about premium or non-premium items, and I wasn’t asking for a protein. Their response was dismissive. Eventually, they agreed to make the substitution this time. I thanked them and ended up paying $35 for two Brussels and Kale Quinoa salads. However, when I went to eat my salads, I discovered there was no avocado and the unwanted apple was still there. They misled me and simply took my money. The salad itself was good, but if I had known they wouldn’t replace the apple with avocado, I would have chosen something else. It seems that misleading customers they don’t expect to see again is just how they conduct business.

The soup and salad are decent if you're at the airport. I've been here a few times, and it has become my go-to place for a quick meal before a flight.

Somehow the avocado was the warmest part of avocado toast. Weird stuff. Hey, at least the service was fast!

I grabbed a salad from here while I was rushing to catch my flight. The salads were made to order and were made quickly which I appreciated. The Thai chicken salad was huge and decent. It is airport food, so set expectations accordingly.
