About the Brand

Founded in 2006, Just Salad is a fast-casual chain committed to sustainability and everyday health. With 80+ locations across seven states and B Corp™ certification, the brand is known for its reusable bowl program, plant-powered menu, and community-first mindset.

From menu to mission—and now to customer experience—Just Salad proves that better choices can scale.

The Challenge

As Just Salad expanded its footprint, the Guest Relations team faced increasing pressure to manage customer feedback at scale—without the systems or bandwidth to keep up.

Reviews are scattered across platforms

Everything from delivery apps to Google to Yelp

Manual response workflows

Replying to each review individually cost time and morale

Little visibility into guest sentiment

No clear way to tie customer feedback to operational improvement or winbacks

The Solution

Just Salad partnered with Momos AI Customer Copilot to centralize customer feedback, automate replies, and power smarter service recovery across all 80 locations.
