I'm pretty sure I've enjoyed this salad before, but this time it wasn't that great. I wonder if it was bad in the past, but I just never remember that 'cause I didn't have rbu to remind me before. I think I'll try it one more time and if I don't like it again I'll probably stop getting it.
The lettuce was fresh, in fact all the ingredients seemed fresh there was just some odd flavor. I liked that the feta cheese was moist and creamy, but something tells me that's probably not the way it's supposed to be and it had an odd plasticy flavor. The dressing had almost no flavor at all and was very oily. I love pepperoncinis, but I'm also very picky about them. These were spicy, but didn't have much flavor. I also love LOVE olives and these were just plain bad. They had a very bitter flavor that I never want to taste again. Needless to say, I was disappointed.

Soon after writing the above review I received an email from someone at Soho Cafe explaining that they had just recently switched vendors for their feta and olives. Apparently, they weren't very happy with the product either. This is good news! Next time I'm in the neighborhood I'll try this salad again and see if the subsequent change was an improvement.
