City leaders and local
dignitaries joined Salata Salad Kitchen owners and staff recently to celebrate the
opening of the city’s newest restaurant which is located at the Peachtree Corners Town
Center.
The new eatery offers tossed-to-order
salads and wraps, soups, organic teas and lemonade, breads and cookies. All
fruits and vegetables are fresh and chopped daily in-house. Salad offerings
include five salad bases, more than 50 toppings and 10 house-made, gluten-free
dressings. A variety of flavored iced
teas are available at the “Tea Tap” along with other beverages.
Located at 5210 Town
Center Boulevard, the Houston-based business was founded in 2005 and has over
65 franchise locations in the U.S. The company held a ribbon-cutting event on
Wednesday, Feb. 6 for its Peachtree Corners location.
Mayor Mike Mason,
Councilmembers Phil Sadd (Post 1), Lorri Christopher (Post 5) and Weare
Gratwick (Post 6 and Mayor Pro Tem), along with members of the Southwest
Gwinnett Chamber and Peachtree Corners Business Association
were on hand for the grand opening.
“We are delighted to
welcome Salata
Salad Kitchen to our city,” said Councilmember Gratwick. “It is a
great addition to our Town Center that, when complete, will feature a number of
restaurants, retail shops and entertainment venues for our community to enjoy.”
The 3,000 square-foot
restaurant seats 72 indoors and has an 800 square-foot outdoor patio that seats
an additional 32. The Peachtree Corners location marks the seventh location in
the Atlanta metro area and 83rd for the company.
The following day, Feb. 7,
the company held a celebration that was open to the public and donated 25
percent of its opening day sales to the Robert D. Fowler
Family YMCA.
