Maybe I ordered the wrong entree

Went on a weeknight and the place was packed, which is a great sign. The apps are phenomenal (tostones, hush puppies) and I will go back just for those alone. I didn’t love the pad thai- it was missing something but I can’t put my finger on it.

Good but missing some flavor imo

Love the baked goods next door, so I was a little disappointed by the pizza I got being kind of bland.

Great food, not-so-great bugs

This place had lovely all-vegetarian food, and everything could easily be made vegan. It all tastes wonderful, and the atmosphere is great, the restaurant really did a lot with a little space. The only negative was the bugs. There were a lot of flies and bugs flying around, making it impossible to enjoy the food and experience. I had to ask for a box and bring my food home, I just couldn't stand all the disgusting flies. Other than that, though, it's a lovely place with lovely food.

Pros: Great quality food, Good atmosphere, Anything can easily be made vegan

Cons: Flies

Enough vegan options from all vegetarian dishes

Great Sriracha buffalo cauliflower.
Awesome recommendation from waitress for oyster mushroom sandwich on a pretzel bun.
Always enjoy my visit here. Not very large, always busy, very friendly and efficient service
Had their burgers, pad Thai, etc - never s bad choice

delicious, strange service

my review was originally 5 stars. food is still delicious, they really know what they’re doing with the sandwiches. but the last four times i’ve been there service has been so bad. multiple different servers try and take your order, they are not friendly at all, literally the second a dish has one third of its food left, they pounce and try and take the plate away. the last four times i’ve been there i am constantly fighting the servers off so i can finish my food. even when i am the only table in the restaurant.

Reliably excellent

This place has been great for a long time! Most recently we got the Reggie’s Raw Heaven, Oyster mushroom burger on a pretzel bun, spring corn pizza with vegan cheese, and a black bean mushroom burger with vegan cheese. Everything was really good. If you haven’t visited yet or haven’t visited in a while it’s a must! Everything on the menu can be made vegan by subbing vegan cheese as dairy cheese is the only dairy product they have - all sauces are vegan. Prices are very reasonable.

Some of the best vegan food I’ve had in a long time. Lots of different options and great for mixed company! Small restaurant that fills up quickly.

Incredible quality food

Garden grille is consistently amazing! This most recent visit I got the beer onion soup (amazing!) and went for the Reggie’s raw heaven (also amazing). Quality ingredients, great blend of flavors, and good portions.

Pros: Quality ingredients, Tasty, Unique menu items

Delicious Vegan Food!

I love the menu at Garden Grille! So many vegan choices. I had the BLT with avocado and it was delicious. It came with a really nice salad too. The Risotto Cake appetizers were terrific. We will definitely be back when we’re in the area.

Pros: Creative menu , Lots of vegan choices, Yummy mocktails

Excellent lunch, now go vegan!

I had the Reuben made vegan and honestly it was so good I don’t know why they bother to still serve dairy at all. Looking at the menu it was mostly cheese that keeps this restaurant from being vegan; I get when places still use eggs sometimes in battering, even though I don’t agree it is necessary, but there wasn’t really anything fried on the menu that would require battering. I get that a lot of people still think vegan cheese sucks but it’s come a long way since this place opened in 1997, and I wish they would make the jump!

It’s a great lunch spot regardless. The portions are huge and I only finished half my sandwich. I know they serve dinner here too but for me the menu—salads, handhelds, pizzas—seemed more lunch-like for me. I would recommend it, I just wish it was vegan!

I Wanna Like It More...

...I really do! Everything was very tasty and the staff is great. I just found everything to be a little on the oily side (even the delicious bread on which my Tofu BLT was served, appeared to have been shellacked with oil - perhaps vegan butter; not sure, but not at all necessary.) Also, as with Veggie Galaxy in Cambridge, Mass., I am disappointed that they still feel the need to cater to anyone consuming dairy. Their excellent, soy-based, in-house, Vegan cheese, which I sampled from my man's order of Vegan Mac & Cheese, is proof positive that dairy on the menu could easily be eliminated.

Additionally, although we were seated at a corner table in front of the large window, I still felt slightly claustrophic while dining in. Granted, it was a Saturday on a holiday weekend, and quite busy during lunch, but I think it would be advantageous for management to eliminate at least just a couple of tables.

Pros: Tasty fare, Delightful and attentive staff, Reasonably priced

Cons: Dairy need not be served, I found the food to be a bit on the oily side, Too many tables; slightly crowded.

Tasty food and friendly staff

There were lots of options of different types of food, Mexican, pizza, burgers etc so great for whatever you're in the mood for! Everything is at least vegetarian and most things can be made vegan on request, the staff were super friendly!

Good menu variety

Really good fresh food. Their menu is really diverse, they do serve some dairy:eggs here but mostly everything can be modified vegan.

The Reggie’s Raw Heaven salad is 10/10 like I dream about it’s flavor combination

So good!!!

Great staff and plenty of options of very delicious food. We shared the Reggie’s raw heaven salad, side of sweet chili glazed tofu, and the red bean & quinoa burger. All were so good! The burger—with its pretzel bun, delicious patty, and perfect ingredient ratios—was incredible. The salad was yummy as well; I loved the refreshing nature of it thanks to mango, avocado, etc. The tofu had great flavor with a wonderful seared smokiness. I can’t wait to come back!
