When you were a kid, your parents probably told you to eat your greens, and you would begrudgingly do so and spit them out afterwards. But at Field and Social, you won't just eat your greens - you'll keep coming back for them. Field and Social has taken the noble side salad and turned it into the main event. Served up in beautiful ceramic bowls, their salads are the full meal deal without feeling guilty about anything. But these aren't your typical salads with too much dressing and a few forgettable croutons. Those that work Field and Social take pride in the creation of their salads, making it a perfect lunch choice for the many businesses that work in the same area. The interior space is beautiful, with clean white walls and wooden communal tables while still keeping the concrete integrity of its previous life. The decal on the wall next to the entrance reads "have a field day", and if the interior doesn't already draw you in, the salads will make sure that you stay there. I had the Rustic Orzo, which had roasted chicken breast, orzo, walnuts, sundried tomatoes, bacon and Grana Padano cheese on top of a bed of romaine lettuce and kale, topped with a basil and white Balsamic dressing. Just writing that out makes me think back to this gorgeous salad, which was so simple and yet so tasty. You may wonder why even bother spending so much money on a salad (mine was $11; the most expensive one costs $14.50). I suppose there is something unusual about going out to eat a salad when you could very well make it at home on your own, but Field and Social offers a new way to lunch, one that looks and feels a lot healthier than most others. Best of all, they source local and fresh ingredients to use in their salads, making it an even bigger win. So if you are ever looking for a lunch option that is guilt free, have a field day and go over to Field and Social. You can also tell your parents that you eat your greens now!
