Salad Chain Sweetgreen Has Officially Arrived in Aventura

The highly anticipated lunch spot Aventura residents have been waiting for has finally arrived — Sweetgreen has opened at the Esplanade at Aventura on Tuesday, March 26.

It's hard to imagine a time when South Florida didn't have its go-to healthy salad bar. Now, the popular chain has expanded to nine locations across South Florida, including Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Fort Lauderdale, and now, its latest in Aventura.
At the new Aventura location, Sweetgreen is bringing along its signature menu of salads, warm bowls, protein plates, and sides. It features longtime favorites like the "Harvest Bowl" and "Crispy Rice Bowl" and new protein-packed offerings, including a miso-glazed salmon bowl, southwest chicken fajita bowl, and "Hot Honey Chicken Bowl."

For every meal sold on opening day until closing at 10 p.m., Sweetgreen will donate a meal to the local nonprofit organization Health in the Hood to nourish people experiencing food insecurity from Miami to Fort Lauderdale. Health in the Hood connects communities to wellness by providing access to fresh foods and health education in low-income neighborhoods, putting families on the path to healthy futures.
The new location at Esplanade at Aventura will accommodate 22 diners inside and 32 diners outside on the restaurant's patio. The store features Sweetgreen's signature creamy white walls, forest green packaging, rattan seats, and natural tones throughout its dining and kitchen areas.

STK, the Salty Donut, and Chip City cookies are all opening at Esplanade at Aventura this summer.
