A new restaurant set to redefine fast food is coming to Liberty Center.

Sweetgreen is bringing its menu of fresh salads, warm bowls, protein plates and sides, featuring longtime favorites like the Harvest Bowl and Crispy Rice Bowl, to Butler County. The location will be in a building currently under construction at the corner of Tylers Place and Liberty Way. This building will also house a Sephora and a yet-to-be-named retailer.

“We opened our first Ohio restaurant in Short North (Columbus) last year and were thrilled by the excitement for Sweetgreen,” Christopher Tarrant, Chief Development Officer at Sweetgreen said. “As we expand across the state, Liberty Center stands out for its vibrant mix of shopping, dining and community spaces — making it the perfect place to bring our fresh, flavorful menu to even more Ohioans.”

Sweetgreen offers salads and protein bowls, including the Miso glazed salmon featuring avocado, cucumbers, pickled onions, crispy onions, white rice, nori sesame seasoning and spicy cashew. CONTRIBUTED

The menu features protein-packed offerings including the Caramelized Garlic Steak and Miso Glazed Salmon protein plates and a fresh take on an American classic with new Ripple Fries. The fries are seasoned with a blend of salt and herbs and air-fried in avocado oil. They are served with a choice of two signature homemade sauces: Garlic Aioli and Pickle Ketchup.

Sweetgreen was founded in 2007 by three college students looking for a healthier way to eat. Jonathan Neman, Nicolas Jammet and Nathaniel Ru opened their first location in Washington, D.C. and have grown to more than 250 nationwide.

Since its founding Sweetgreen has been focused on sourcing the best ingredients from trusted farmers and suppliers and is devoted to a transparent supply chain.

The Liberty Center location is expected to open late rthis year and will offer eat in, carryout and digital ordering.

“As Liberty Center continues to grow and expand, we are excited to bring new first-to-market businesses to the community,” said John Taylor, general manager of Liberty Center. “The addition of Sweetgreen to Liberty Center’s award-winning restaurant lineup further cements the property as Cincinnati and Dayton’s number one option for dining and entertainment.”
