The make-your-own main salads are excellent. Lots of great ingredients to choose from, all of which are well-prepared and tasty. Even the fat-free raspberry walnut dressing was tasty

Make your own sandwich: sourdough, tri-tip steak, all toppings, Pluto's BBQ sauce (extra), garlic curly fries and a root beer on tap. You won't ever get anything else.

Always a solid bet- get the mixed greens salad with steak on top, cooked medium, toppings (tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, corn, raisins/pineapple, pepperocini's) with the balsamic vinegar.

They have the best salads, but the absolute worst ordering process. A large steak salad and Greek feta is the way to go.

Turkey in flight -- with bacon, Swiss cheese, red pepper & artichoke spread, garlic mayo, romaine lettuce and plum tomatoes.

There are three lines which move counter clockwise. One for salad, one for sandwiches, and one to pay. The sandwich line is in the middle and often much shorter.

Their salads are fairly large. I'd go with a small for one person or a large for two people.

Extremely rude staff (don't ask for tips) doesn't care to inform you if you're waiting in the wrong line and make you go to the end of the order line and the register line that you already waited in.

If your salad has tri-tip and balsamic, its probably delicious

I hate Plutos. They always put a whole lot of dressing on my salad..GROSS!! I want to eat healthy if I wanted a billion calories I would have gone to Abbys for a burger.
