Abbale brings Mediterranean flavors to life with its bright dishes. Their salads are anything but ordinary—think crunchy kale with pistachios and feta, an herb-packed Israeli salad, or the rich and satisfying sabich with roasted eggplant and soft-boiled egg. For something truly unique, the crispy halloumi and grapefruit salad is a fun mix of flavors that hits all the right notes.

While DC Pie Co. is best known for its pizzas, their salads deserve some serious attention. The escarole salad offers a nutty, savory crunch with walnuts and pecorino, while the summer salad balances sweet and tangy flavors with grapes, candied garlic, and gorgonzola. For something heartier, the chopped chicken salad or the meatball salad—topped with two juicy beef meatballs—are satisfying choices. Whether you’re after something light or loaded with protein, DC Pie Co. has a salad to match your cravings.

The tulum cheese salad combines mixed greens, walnuts, and creamy Turkish cheese for a nice, nutty bite. And for something that really pops, the tomato salad features organic chopped tomatoes, onion, walnuts, and imported Turkish olives with crumbled feta.

The main attraction at Sunny’s Steakhouse is steak, but their salads hold their own. The Caesar is a familiar favorite, while the gems salad offers a refreshing mix of herb vinaigrette and walnuts. For something with a twist, the endive salad brings together raspberry vinaigrette, dukkah, and clothbound cheddar for a bold and balanced bite. Whether you’re pairing one with a steak or enjoying it on its own, these salads are worth a second look.
