"Another quick-service restaurant has found itself struggling in the competitive market - Salad and Go is set to close 41 locations across Texas and in Oklahoma. Operating as a drive-thru place for healthy food, Salad and Go is already not the most conventional fast food restaurant. According to reports, the chain will close all of its locations in Houston, Austin, and San Antonio, plus select locations in Dallas, as well as Oklahoma."
"This news of the closure came very suddenly; anonymous employees of the chain exclusively told Chron that the restaurants are set to close by the end of the week, on Friday, September 19. For now, it's unclear which specific locations in Dallas and Oklahoma will be closing, so fans of the chain living in those areas will have to wait and see."
"For the past few years, it appears that Salad and Go locations really do come and go. A number of locations were opened under the previous CEO, Charlie Morrison, whose optimistic vision included opening one store per week. He ultimately left the company in November 2024, due to not seeing eye-to-eye with the board on the topic of strategy. Tattersfield took over as CEO in April 2025, and by May, the chain held over 140 locations after a two-year period of rapid growth."
Salad and Go will close 41 locations across Texas and Oklahoma, including all locations in Houston, Austin, and San Antonio, plus select Dallas and Oklahoma sites. Anonymous employees told Chron the restaurants are set to close by Friday, September 19, while specific Dallas and Oklahoma closures remain unclear. CEO Mike Tattersfield said the company is reducing its footprint in Houston, Austin, and San Antonio to focus on strengthening the Dallas metro area and Oklahoma and continues to believe in the Texas market's long-term potential. Rapid expansion under former CEO Charlie Morrison led to over 140 locations by May after two years of growth, followed by leadership change.
