My order was receiving mixed reviews: the salad I got was very small and the bowl did not allow for mixing, so a messy endeavor at best. The staff is really friendly, so the service hits a five. Loss of stars is for the price and the inconsistent quality of the ingredients.

After indulging in way too many fried and heavy foods during my trip, I was really craving…read moresomething light and refreshing before heading back to the city. I'm so glad I found this spot--it was exactly what I needed to reset. Food: 4/5 I ordered an ahi tuna poke bowl and a smoothie, and overall, it hit the mark. The tuna wasn't the best I've ever had, but it was still solid--fresh enough and well-balanced with the toppings. The smoothie, though, was delicious. I'd honestly come back just for that alone--it was cooling, clean, and packed with flavor. Atmosphere: 5/5 The interior design here is beautiful--very calm, airy, and just a peaceful place to sit for a bit. It felt like the kind of space where you could relax, journal, or just quietly enjoy a meal without the bustle of a typical café. Really appreciated that. Service & Price: This is more of a counter-service place--order at the front and grab a seat. No complaints there; everything came out pretty quickly and the staff was kind. As far as price goes: yes, it's on the higher end. A bowl + smoothie can easily run you over $30 which feels like a lot when compared to, say, a hearty Italian sandwich around the corner. But I get it--healthy food often just costs more. For me, it was worth it this time around. Overall: If you're in the area and looking to take a break from heavier meals, this is a lovely spot. It's not a cheap bite, but it's fresh, clean, and satisfying. I'll definitely be back for a smoothie if I'm nearby.

The guy behind counter was very friendly and handled every customer I saw quickly and made those drinks perfectly. Honestly the pink flamingo was alright, not a fan of vanilla powders since honestly the drink was bit too sweet and lacked much of fruit flavor. Now later in the day I came back a second time and tried the Malibu baby, which was leagues better, very refreshing and I can taste the fruit flavor in it, plus not overly sweet. Glad I came across this place while walking around during my errands.

I can see myself enjoying their various drinks/smoothies with a book. The very welcoming and friendly staff at the counter helped answer our many questions about the menu. After reviewing their menu, I had a hard time choosing what to try first. At first, I intended to order the spicy guacamole toast with a salad but once I saw the smoothie bowls I changed my mind completely. I finally settled on trying The Grind smoothie bowl because it has espresso in it. It was mind-blowing delicious! Fresh fruit on top (banana, strawberries, and blueberries), granola, and mini-chocolate chips mixed into the smoothie had the perfect texture. The flavor is AMAZING - you can taste the espresso and I loved it. The base is made with fresh espresso, banana, peanut butter, cocoa, honey, and oat milk. It was like eating soft ice cream but guilt-free! My friend ordered the Coco Banana smoothie and had them add in whey protein to make it more substantial and filling. She said it was delicious. I definitely recommend stopping by and trying their stuff. If you like coffee, try The Grind....you won't be sorry! PS - the spoon with the smoothie changes colors when you hold it - so cool especially if you have kids.

Their menu is extensive and impressive; they have some all-star dishes on their permanent menu as well as a rotating daily menu with a legendary lineup of seasonal items. I really appreciate that they have dishes that are hard to come by such as lentil loaf and lasagna, and these never disappoint. The lentil loaf is unique; it is a little brick of lentils (not your traditional sliceable mush of breadcrumbs and minced veggies). It's very well seasoned and the tomato sauce on top is not overly sweet. The mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy and (very) garlicky greens make it a great meal. The lasagna is one of my favorite dishes. It's pasta-free and just made from layers of sliced zucchini and other veggies sandwiched with their delicious crumbly housemade cashew cheese. The herby tomato sauce is super flavorful. The side salad and garlic bread that accompany it are great also; an ultra comforting meal. We enjoyed the macro meal, although honestly not as much as the other dishes. The pan-seared tofu was delicious, but the arame seaweed salad was super seaweedy and salty - a bit much for me. I'm also not sure why they didn't serve it in a bowl, which would have made the rice etc. easier to eat. It seemed to be missing something - perhaps avocado, or a hunk of sweet potato. A few items at the Garden Cafe are a little perplexing, compared to how perfect most of their food is. The tempeh is just ok. It's heavily marinated in a sweet and salty sauce and kind of strange. Also disappointing that it's just a big brand tempeh rather than one of the local tempeh brands available in the area. The housemade focaccia is also bizarre. The texture made me think it was gluten-free (but it's not). Is it whole wheat?? If that's the case, awesome, but they should mention that on the menu, so you aren't taken aback when you don't get pillowy airy bread and instead get something flat and gray that could be mistaken for a biscotti. We LOVE the Garden Cafe and wish more places like this existed serving organic classic meals. We wish they would open a location in New York City, but until then, we will be making the drive!

My friend was excited since she didn't have to worry when she was ordering as she usually does. I had the pizza panini which had a tomato at the core with a pesto sauce and vegan cheese coating the outside. Pesto was fresh, bright and flavorful. Bread was hearty and the cheese added a welcome accent of saltiness. It was a good sized portion that sustained my appetite for a good time after finishing the meal. I also had the super green smoothie (spinach, banana, mango, pineapple and spirulina). It was definitely packed with greens, but also had a nice level of fruitinesses. My friend had the waffle topped with berries. She enjoyed it and surprisingly finished the whole thing even though it could have easily have been 2 meals. I'll probably stop by if I'm around this area again. They have a loyalty club and I got a coupon to use on my next visit.

I ordered it with a side of avocado and it was perfection. Very refreshing flavors! I had the coconut curry broth with chicken and it was DELICIOUS. The chicken was so juicy and soft.
