What an oasis in a desert town with so many chain restaurants and spots catered to families in town for sporting competitions. This place is a vibe. Outdoor seating under shaded trees, chill music, plenty of seating inside as well. Customer service was excellent. I got the matcha latte and it was on point, earthy with a hint of sweetness. The avocado toast I opted for was the Buddha toast, tahini, tumeric chickpeas, thinly sliced radishes, on a thick piece of locally baked sourdough. It's all the little details and plated to perfection. I can't turn down an açaí bowl, even when it's called a smoothie bowl. You can build your own, but why when they have a signature bowl with all the good good already. Beautifully presented in perfectly proportioned layers and goodness. I couldn't resist the mini cherry hand pie, that's going on the road home to Salt Lake with me. We'll see if I make it to Cedar City before I eat it. This was my first visit to Gaia's Garden but I have a feeling I'll be visiting every trip to St. George

Relaxing vibe with plenty of seating.

Passing through St George we were looking for lunch, and Gaia stood out as a vegetarian option. They offer different varieties of avocado toast, seitan sandwiches (I.e. BLT), coffee and tea. The staff was helpful and the vibe was social - lots of friends spending time together.

Açaí bowl
Jose Q.

Very dog friendly service! We liked the patio area and the matcha was incredible. The Pisces Dream matcha latte was so good! We also had the açaí bowl and the little lemon w blue berry loaf, both were delicious! Also, whoever built the playlist needs a raise lol.

Breakfast burrito

A terrific little hideaway cafe with a small, but tasty menu. Complete with both indoor and outdoor seating (dog friendly), it's off the main road in what almost feels like a residential neighborhood. You order and pay at the counter, take a number, go sit somewhere, and they will bring your food to you. Be patient if you order a tea; they let it steep before bringing it to you I had the breakfast burrito, which was a healthy and delicious choice I love the casual and comfortable atmosphere of this place, along with its bopping music; much better than a crowded diner where you feel rushed. Felt great to relax outdoor, and enjoy the weather while sipping my tea. Looking forward to coming back here a lot.

Raspberry Vanilla Matcha & breakfast burrito

Wow wow WOW!!! Love this vegetarian/vegan friendly cafe! Their vibe inside is so cozy and comfy. I loved grabbing breakfast & a drink and reading for a while. I wish I would've found it sooner during my stay in St. George as I would've frequented here a lot! Their breakfast burrito is so yummy and their matcha is one of the best I've found (finally) in Utah!!

My wife and I had a deal and I was able to pick anywhere I wanted to go for lunch. She typically prefers familiar places that serve comfort food-like chicken strips and fries. But I like to try new things and this looked good, so I picked it. After all, a deal's a deal! It wasn't until we were walking in that I confessed to her that it was a vegan restaurant. She wasn't happy with me, but went along graciously. We saw a full patio with people enjoying live musical performances and then hopped in line to order some food. The patio was our preference but we opted to eat inside since there were no seats open outside. The wait was a bit longer than anticipated, but the staff were working hard and doing their best to keep up with everyone. We ordered chips and pico along with a hummus board. Everything we ate was delicious and we had far more food than the two of us alone could eat. One other really cool thing at Gaia's Garden Café is the community journal. I found the journal in a basket with other books and read the comments that other guests had written-and even added a short entry of my own. Super cool to be able to connect with other people who enjoy this space like I did.

Avocado toast

Food was very good the service was good the Ambiance was good and it was clean. Reasonably priced location is nice. Limited parking.

Menu

Passing through St George Utah needing a brunch. This place was perfect. They have a nice plant based menu with bowls as well burritos. We both went for the breakfast burritos. They are not completely plant based but have multiple plant based items to choose from. Amazing flavor profile from the seitan to the potatoes to the tofu they curry in house and served with fresh pico salsa. We topped things off by splitting a blueberry lemon loaf. OMG. I could eat that everyday. Hubby isn't a person to eat sweets and ate half of it. He had a delicious matcha to go with his meal and I settled on a refreshing iced tea. The prices are reasonable. The staff is friendly. It isn't too far off the 15 when driving through town. The vibe is a blend of hippie meets new age meets queer meets plant based. Definitely a wide spectrum of guest eating here. Will definitely be back next time we come through here.

Biscuits and gravy
Amber D.

Stopped here on my way to Zion. I'm vegetarian and saw this place is vegan with great reviews and decided to give it a try. The cashier was very helpful with recommendations and answering any questions I had. I ordered a coffee with the biscuits and gravy. My friend had a grain bowl with the avocado toast. I ordered soy with my coffee and some vanilla flavoring. It was made perfectly where I didn't have to sweeten it. We both really enjoyed our food and I felt the portions were just right where I wouldn't be overly full but just satisfied. They have indoor and outdoor seating but it seems more people sat indoors since it was a little cool outside. Overall this was a great pick and I wouldn't hesitate coming here again if I'm ever in the area.

My husband and I are obsessed with Aubergine Kitchen. We eat here almost exclusively. The food…read moretastes great and feels nourishing. It's easy to maintain a healthy weight when all you eat is clean food with recognizable ingredients.

Solid Seed Oil-Free Spot in St. George…read more Cute spot off Mall Drive with a huge, somewhat convoluted menu full of plates, bowls, salads, and sandwiches. We went for lunch and it hit the spot for clean eating. I originally tried ordering the Donny Bowl but the cashier said it was unavailable, so I switched to the Power Pasture Bowl (tri tip and eggs). My buddy got the Mediterranean plate. We both selected the cheese bread. No drinks -- they have a water dispenser in the dining room. The dining room was about 25% full. Service is order-at-counter, then they bring the food and bus tables, but a few corner tables were still sitting with dirty plates from the lunch rush. The Power Pasture Bowl came out with beautiful presentation, but I found myself wondering, "What the hell do I do with this?" So I dumped the side dressing over everything and mixed it up -- turned into a delicious medley of flavors and textures. Only issue: it was missing the eggs. I went back to the counter and they quickly brought out a hard-boiled egg sliced in half. (See before/after photos.) Once assembled, it was really good. It's built like a healthier Chipotle (which, btw, loads up on seed oils), but don't expect a hot chef-crafted dish -- more fresh, layered ingredients with turmeric rice, etc. The cheese bread was a highlight -- chewy (tastes like rice flour for the gluten-free vibe) but way better than the dry-looking pita our neighbor had. Highly recommend the cheese bread. My friend loved his Mediterranean plate -- the baked falafel was delicious, everything fresh, generous portions, and nice presentation. Total for two: $35.45 (no drinks). Totally worth it if you're avoiding seed oils and inflammation. Fresh Mediterranean-leaning fare with a Whole Foods vibe. Great for bowls and plates. If you're craving something hotter, I've heard good things about Outback Steakhouse, Street Eats, and Buffalo Wild Wings -- they use beef tallow. Aubergine Kitchen has a sign saying to let them know about allergies, but missing the eggs on my bowl makes me wonder how on top of that they are. Still, overall a win for clean eating. Would recommend and go back. See attached photos (before/after bowl, cheese bread, etc.)

Father's Day this year was especially meaningful for our family, and thanks to this incredible…read morerestaurant, it became a memory we will cherish forever. From the moment we arrived, every dish was exceptional. The salad was fresh and beautifully prepared, the pork belly was absolutely outstanding, and the steak was cooked to perfection with the most incredible seasoning. Every bite was memorable. The biscuit was unreal--warm, comforting, and honestly one of the best I've ever had. What touched me most was the homemade ice cream. One spoonful instantly brought me back to childhood memories of my dad making homemade ice cream for us when we were kids. It was such a special and unexpected gift to relive those moments. But what truly made the evening unforgettable was our server, Parthee. She was absolutely amazing. Her kindness, attentiveness, and genuine warmth made us feel so welcomed and cared for. She didn't just provide excellent service--she made our night. Our family has been through a lot, including the heartbreaking loss of my sister. Father's Day hasn't always been easy for my sweet dad since then. This evening gave us something precious: a new happy memory together. Parthee, thank you for your compassion and for helping create a beautiful moment for our family during a difficult season of life. We are so grateful, and we will never forget it.

We had the sweetest, most feel-good experience at First Watch today From the moment we walked in,…read moreeverything just felt warm and welcoming. Our food was absolutely delicious! The Power Wrap was served perfectly warm and the mushrooms were so flavorful, the chocolate chip pancakes (with that warm maple syrup ) were such a treat, and the farmhouse hash was hearty and comforting. The fruit was beautiful, ripe, and juicy, and the avocado was literally perfect. You can just tell when food is made with care, and this was it. The ambience made it even better;bright, clean, and peaceful with such a happy, relaxed energy. But truly, the best part of our visit was our server, Michael. He was an absolute angel. So kind, so genuine, and just full of light. He made us feel so special and taken care of, and his smile honestly made our whole morning. You can tell he really loves what he does, and it shows in the way he treats people. We left feeling full, happy, and just really grateful. We'll definitely be back
