So lucky to dine here!!

The Garden Kitchen is no where near my work or home. But today I had to attend a meeting off Loop 610 just an exit away, so you bet I made time for lunch! Took awhile for me to decide, but at the chef's recommendation, I chose the Spinach Portobello wrap, corn salad and side salad meal (8.99). Everything is prepared fresh when you order, even the salad dressing. The coconut wrap really makes this sandwich zing, since I love coconut!! The corn salad reminds me of a recipe from my favorite co-op, Rawfully Organic, where I believe Garden Kitchen gets some, if not all, of their fresh organic produce. Keep up the good and healthy work, Dr. Montgomery. Now I just wish you'd open a location in The Woodlands!!

Pros: Excellent fresh, healthy food, Almost all raw options, Friendly and helpful staff
Cons: Not the best location, Small dining area

Nutritional excellence for better health

5 Posted on 09 / 26 / 2011

Very good food, raw vegan, to support nutritional excellence and better health.
I highly recommend the corn salad for a starter - the only time I've had better was eating corn fresh from the cob after having just picked and shucked it myself. Follow this with the poblano, corn chowder (okay, so I love non-GMO corn), again, fresh corn, blended with fresh peppers adn well seasoned. The raw vegan chili is also good as a soup course, or could be an entree depending on the time of day and one's preferences.
The garden burger is good as a sandwich, yet I usually skip the sandwich in favor of the entrees; the kale leaf or tahini spinach wraps work for me.
Save room for dessert; the key lime pie is rawsome - call ahead because it sells out early most days. Who knew avocado could be sooo good! No key lime pie? The sorbets, mango or strawberry, will do just fine.
Garden Kitchen sometimes offers educational open houses, of Dr. Montgomery's medical practice emphasizing taking personal responsibility for improving one's health thru optimum nutrition, and feature food samples and demonstrations. Garden Kitchen was a vendor at Houston's recent VegFest, and featured a demo on making their fabulous key lime pie.

INNOVATIVE!

I am very glad to have found The Garden Kitchen! It's cozy and pretty on the inside.

Though it isn't an array of vegan comfort food, these raw treats are delicious with interesting blue green algae concoctions for optimal health to take home with you.

If you have kiddos with you that are used to A standard kid menu type OF food, whom aren't use to vegan, or raw foods, I suggest you visit this place on your own time.

The food is a delicious acquired taste for the mature palate.

Better with new eating area

5 Posted on 06 / 17 / 2011

It's nice to have a place in Houston that serves raw vegan food. I like the Tahini Spinach Wrap and Poblano Corn Chowder. The new eating area is a big improvement. Also, the menu has improved in recent months. See the website for a full menu.

Pros: raw menu, healthy, good variety

Raw Food

In the process of remodeling, but once that is done will be a nice place to sit and eat. Food was good, only wish the take-out container where bio-degradable.

Pros: healthy food, price
Cons: location
