If you love your greens but can’t bear to shell out money for overpriced salad bowls that barely fill you up, these salad bar buffets will definitely hit the spot. Plus, almost half the joints on this list serve more than just fresh greens and vegetables, with yummy sides and desserts, such as Mediterranean pita bread and coffee jelly, gracing the spread!
Besides healthy kebabs, grills, and stews that line Pita Tree’s a la carte menu, the restaurant also offers a lunch buffet ($17) with all-you-can-eat salads, dips, pita bread, vegetables, meat stews, soda, as well as the soup and dessert of the day. This bistro does not charge for service or GST too, perfect for those looking for a wallet-friendly and healthy meal at Boat Quay.

Astons Steak and Salad brings back memories of the now-defunct Ponderosa Steakhouse and Sizzlers—both famed for their salad bar—with its salad station. On its own, the Supreme Salad Buffet is a tad expensive at $19.90. This is why we recommend you getting it with a main course, as you will only need to fork out an additional $11.90 to enjoy never-ending refills of soups, bread, cheeses, salads, and hot and cold side dishes. The side dishes are impressive, featuring onion rings, garlic potatoes, and even chicken drumettes!
