Why Crisp & Green Is Naples’ Top Salad Spot

Crisp & Green in Naples, FL has quietly become the go-to destination for healthy, flavor-forward lunches on the city’s growing north side, named as one of the top salad spots by The Naples Florida Review. This fast-casual concept turns out chef-crafted salads and grain bowls from 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, making it easy to squeeze a nutrient-dense meal between errands or after a workout. The space is bright and modern, the ordering process is streamlined, and every component—from crisp greens to house-made dressings—is prepared fresh each morning.

The menu star is the aptly named “No-Prob Cobb,” a 560-calorie powerhouse that proves healthy eating can still taste good. A base of spinach and kale is loaded with roasted chicken, bacon, avocado, queso fresco, hard-boiled egg, tomatoes, jalapeños, and a squeeze of lemon. What ties it all together is the creamy Jalapeño Green Goddess dressing—a zingy blend that’s addictive without tipping the calorie count. The well-balanced macros mean you leave satisfied, not sluggish, and the salad travels well if you’re grabbing it to-go. 

Beyond that signature bowl, Crisp & Green’s wider menu hits every major dietary need—vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and high-protein—while reinforcing the brand’s founding mission of making wellness convenient. Launched by entrepreneur Steele Smiley in 2016, the chain now hosts community fitness events, offers app-based ordering for quick pickup, and is aggressively expanding throughout Southwest Florida after a successful Naples debut (more than 250 additional locations are in development nationwide). Pair a made-to-order salad with a functional smoothie, or build your own bowl from dozens of clean toppings; whichever route you choose, you’ll understand why Crisp & Green consistently ranks among the best salad spots in Naples—and why it deserves a permanent spot in your lunch rotation.
