Sweetgreen, known for its chef-crafted salads, warm bowls, and protein plates, is excited to bring its fresh, seasonal menu to the Valley of the Sun. This expansion marks the brand’s first foray into Arizona, a milestone in its continued nationwide growth.
“We’re thrilled to introduce Sweetgreen to Arizona and become part of the vibrant communities in Scottsdale and Phoenix,” said Co-Founder and CEO Jonathan Neman. “Our mission is to connect people to real food, and we’re excited to bring that experience to a state that values wellness, sustainability, and community.”
Each Sweetgreen location is designed with transparency and sustainability in mind—from open kitchens where meals are prepared fresh daily, to source boards that highlight local partners and purveyors. Guests can expect longtime favorites like the Harvest Bowl and Crispy Rice Bowl, as well as protein-packed plates including Miso Glazed Salmon and Hot Honey Chicken.
As part of its commitment to community impact, Sweetgreen partners with local organizations to give back to the neighborhoods it serves. For every meal purchased on Scottsdale Quarter’s opening day, Sweetgreen will donate a meal to St. Mary’s Food Bank to nourish people in Greater Phoenix experiencing food insecurity.
The 2,515-square-foot space will accommodate up to 30 seated diners inside and 36 seated diners on the restaurant’s patio. Guests can order in-store or online at order.sweetgreen.com, or through the Sweetgreen app. The app also offers access to Sweetpass, the brand’s loyalty program, which includes personalized challenges, daily discounts, and exclusive merch drops.
Located at 15323 N. Scottsdale Road, Sweetgreen Scottsdale Quarter will be open daily from 10:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.
