Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Panda Kitchen at 5.0 against Salata Salad Kitchen's 4.3. Panda Kitchen also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Salata Salad Kitchen's advantage is ratings volume (1K vs 4) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 22 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
