probably the bestsaladin downtown norfolk. to me, the best salads in downtown and possibly all of town, though i'd have to think longer about that. thesaladandsaladdressing selection is limited (i think they only have the house vinaigrette, but i've never asked about anything else because it's so good). but the greens are bountiful and varied and fresh. i prefer the signaturesaladwhich has nuts and smidge of blue cheese to the main st.saladwhich has feta and more varied vegetables. the soups are wonderful and usually not really heavy. the sweet potato biscuit with smithfield ham and peach preserves is divine if not entirely virtuous. at roughly $8-9 for most lunch items it is a little more than i like to spend at lunch, but never a disappointment. it's probably true that they aren't the speediest, but i've never had to wait too long (though i've never gotten carry out). this is not the place to go for a tuna fish sandwich. go for salad, or soup, or pimento cheese, or something a little less available--though i'm sure they would do tunasaladas well as it could be done.
