sont servis

Hi Matt,

This is called 'the passive voice' when the subject of the sentence is undergoing an action rather than doing the action.

Please take a look at the following lesson -

Forming La Voix Passive with simple tenses in French (French Passive Voice)

Bonne Continuation !

Bonjour Matt,

https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/action-vs-being-verbs/

This conjugation can be found in the passive voice   --  "Ils sont servis  ..."

or être as a state of being where the past participle agrees with the subject as would an adjective.

The state is that the meals are being served with salad -- perhaps this is a non-standard option?

Hope this helps.

Bonne journée

Jim
