    happier vegan with falafel
    Liza G.

    Stopped in this weekend for dinner. Super glad we found this place. Lots of healthy options for pretty much most dietary choices. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside is clean and the staff is friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the happier vegan with falafel and my husband got a steak plate which came with 2 sides. The food quality seems like something you would expect to find at a higher end restaurant. Everything was cooked to perfection, the portions were huge and the prices extremely reasonable. You order at the counter, and they bring the food to your table. I found my food to have a great balance of flavors and textures. I particularly enjoyed the pickled vegetables in the salad and the cranberry & orzo side. The falafel had a nice crispy exterior, rather than being big balls of mush I've been served elsewhere. The bread they serve is a really lovely bakery slice and they have an array of beverages to choose from. This will become a go-to spot and I can't wait to try the other options on the menu. There is a nice selection of sandwiches, soups, salads, plates & bowls.

    Steak plate
    Liliana M.

    I ordered the steak with fries and salad. The steak was a little dry and needed a bit more flavor, but overall it was fine. The fries were nice and the salad was fresh. I would be interested in trying other menu items. The service was friendly, but my order did take a bit longer than my friends. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's plenty of seating and it wasn't crowded at all on a Saturday afternoon.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They do have clean bathrooms, just ask for the code.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    kids bolognese
    Jennifer H.

    Didn't want food coma going back to the office so I opted for the kids bolognese. I was impressed by the taste of the bolognese sauce. The portion is filling enough where you don't feel sluggish going back to work after eating. Plus it gives you room to buy dessert. I tried the chocolate chunk cookie. It was delicious.

    grilled steak plate. 10/10

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Recently dined in here with a friend and everything was immaculate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I highly recommend the steak plate with the buttery mashed potatoes and Caesar salad--the dressing is so good! I also ordered extra bread, and the best part is it wasn't burnt this time, which I really appreciated. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love coming here for lunch dates.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service is always top-notch. While the food has been inconsistent in the past, I genuinely enjoy eating here, and I've noticed real improvement. There's always room to grow, and this location is definitely heading in the right direction. Keep up the great work!

    I was kind of mad at this Tender Greens. For some reason a lot of their stuff is spicy without indicating that on the menu! I'd been here before and didn't remember or experience that. This last visit made me kind of ill, because who would expect spicy sauce under a salad? Annoying. Place isn't cheap too.

    Tender Greens is one of my favorite go-to meals in the area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This location is dog-friendly and cozy with a big gated patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Staff is usually helpful and nice. I got the plate with seared tuna, mashed potatoes and gravy, and seasonal veggies. Bread is nicely toasted and flavorful on its own too. It's a healthy and hearty meal all under 1000 calories. Only complaint is that veggies can prob be roasted a little more. The squash was still kinda raw and hard.

    Spent all this money to miss my salmon
    Shardae Y.

    Extremely disappointed. Would not recommend!!!! Save yourself the headache. This is the second time my husband and I have ordered from Tender Greens Downtown LA via Uber Eats, and both times our dinner was wrong. About a week ago, my mashed potatoes were missing. Tried to give them the benefit of the doubt and try them out again. Today, my salmon was completely missing! ‍ replaced with a random ketchup packet in my plate instead (see image). After a long day at work, this is beyond frustrating. My husband spoke to Tatyana (believe the manager was too busy to speak), and the only solutions offered were: Drive over and pick up the salmon myself (the whole reason I ordered via Uber Eats is because I couldn't pick it up), or "Possibly" refund just the salmon portion. You would think they'd refund the whole plate for the inconvenience and me only having mash potato and veggie for dinner now. To me that's poor customer service and shows how little they care about the mistake that they made. Tried to give them a pass last time, but clearly nothing has improved. The food arrives cold and missing main items. Will not be ordering here again. (Pictures attached for reference.)

    Chipotle chicken salad
    Rizza D.

    Definitely food was good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place is not packed at around 1:30pm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I've been to different tender greens location including this one in DTLA (which I've been here couple of times ) and never had any issues. But today, I never think I will encounter someone who's rude and no personality at all. I asked and he's one of the restaurant manager at that location named Paul. Amazed me, if he cant be bothered just don't be out and show customers that you don't have personality. This is customer service job Paul need to be a little friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Other than that food was good location is okay.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Grilled steak, fried potatoes and grilled veggies. Average.
    James L.

    After an event at Pershing Square just steps away, we were hungry. So the Yelp app brought us here since it's the closest and we didn't have to drive and find parking again. We arrived around dinner time. In the weekends when the offices are closed,'this place is nearly empty except for a few that came in for food delivery. We ordered the chicken pesto sandwich. The bread was very rustic with hard edges. The chicken was dry so it was hard to swallow. But after sitting in the to-go container for a few hours, the bread softened up and perhaps the pesto seeped into the chicken so it wasn't as dry as earlier. The steak plate (see my photo) looked like they just threw everything onto the plate. The steak was mostly tough and medium, instead of the medium rare I ordered. We also got a steak with mashed potatoes and pasta salad. (No photo) The steak was also more like medium instead of med. rare. That order was plated much better. Service was OK. Food was OK and filled us up. We were just happy for the location and distance from Pershing Square. Next time, we'll plan ahead better.

    Short rib with broccoli special
    Deidre M.

    Our new go-to for healthy delicious eats after the gym! Have ordered online 3x for in advance pickup and has yet to disappoint! I tried the short rib special last night and it was even better than the menu photo! Steak also so bomb. Portions also solid. Tasty and fresh. Feels less guilty to get takeout here vs greasy or fried foods! I do want to take a moment to callout a few minor improvements though - roasted veggie side ratio was majority carrot, no squash, a few mushrooms. Also the online ordering portal doesn't have farro salad as a side option for the plates. Can these two items be addressed? Thanks and see y'all soon!!!

    cup - green pozole

    I ordered the green pozole "bowl" I was given a small cup with mainly liquid and tiny toppings . I placed the order with Uber Eats so I have two pay for a tip delivery and to save myself some money. I order a dessert. This is very disappointing and very costly to only get child portion size for lunch

    What is this?!?!  How is this $16?

We started with the oyster sampler featuring selections from Hollywood, MD; Pope's Bay, VA; Buzzards Bay, MA; Chesapeake Bay, VA; and Wellfleet, MA. The oysters were exceptionally fresh and served with great accompaniments. We always order oysters when visiting seafood restaurants because freshness is so important to us, and Water Grill absolutely delivered. A must-order. The grilled Spanish octopus, served with fingerling potatoes, Niçoise olives, roasted tomato, pine nuts, and olive oil, was very good (3.5/5). We're fairly picky when it comes to octopus, and while we would have liked a bit more char, it was still among the better versions we've had. The New Zealand king salmon sushi with avocado, hazelnuts, papaya, and white soy-lime vinaigrette was fresh, clean, and delicious (5/5). While not particularly unique, it was executed perfectly. The crispy calamari with harissa aioli and cilantro-mint sweet chili sauce was also well done (4/5)--crispy, not oily, and very enjoyable. Calamari is another dish we frequently order, and this version met our standards, even if it wasn't especially memorable. The standout among the appetizers was the New Zealand pink bream ceviche with cilantro, red peppers, onions, lemon juice, and olive oil. The presentation was beautiful, and the flavors were incredibly fresh (5/5). We only added a touch of salt. This is another must-order dish. The Peruvian bay scallops with pistachio citrus pesto were somewhat underwhelming (3/5), and the Brussels sprouts with bacon and chestnuts (3/5) didn't leave much of an impression either. The lobster itself was excellent (5/5)--sweet, fresh, and perfectly prepared. The accompanying coleslaw wasn't our favorite, but we'd happily order the lobster again and probably go for a larger portion next time. The absolute star of the evening was the Massachusetts black sea bass. It was easily one of the best dishes of the night and possibly one of the best fish dishes we've ever had at a restaurant (5/5). Tender, juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. To top it all off, the restaurant surprised us with a complimentary birthday dessert featuring chocolate cake, vanilla cake, oatmeal cake, and ice cream. It was thoughtful, delicious, and a wonderful ending to the meal (5/5). Overall, Water Grill earns a well-deserved 5/5. The quality and freshness of the seafood were outstanding, the beachfront ambiance was beautiful, and the service was friendly and attentive throughout the evening. Definitely a must-try seafood destination in Los Angeles. Thank you to the entire team for such a memorable experience--we truly appreciated it.

Sparkling lemonade in a jar - great!! Fresh and light and not too sweet. Overall, worth the hype. I was worried it had been so built up in my mind it wouldn't be worth the line and everything but it was great and would come back (and will!!) It's in a food court-type setting so you aren't getting a quiet, service oriented experience. But if you know that going in, you'll be fine. Don't stress about not finding a table.

It has been YEARS since I tried oysters and I remember not liking them, but I wanted to give it another shot. To my surprise, my oyster was fresh, delicious, and not fishy AT ALL. The crudo was incredible - the fish was fresh and the flavor combo of olive oil and capers was divine. For our main, we split the fried fish sandwich with fries. The fries were great, and the sandwich was crisp, not too oily, and paired perfectly with the toppings. For dessert, we had their key lime pie.

I went with a martini and they ask how you like it so I got mine with gin, an olive and a twist. It was made perfectly and it was so good! We ordered 8 oysters from the specials menu (they have it written inside on chalkboard), the plate of frites, smoked trout dip, and a tuna aguachile dish they had on their specials menu. It was a small table but we got everything to fit because they smartly have a holder to lift the tray above the table which helps. Everything looked beautiful when it came out! The oysters were great, salty but not overly briney. The smoked trout dip with the roe on top was delicious, the buttery ritz crackers pair with it so nicely. I would get that again for sure. The aguachile was good as well, it had quite the kick to it too. And honestly fries are fries, yes, but these fries were maybe some of the best ones I've ever had. Perfectly fried to a crisp and salty. I'll dream of those fries. And such a perfect portion of them for sharing with a friend. I loved our time here!

Accompaniments like potatoes were OK, but could have more mushroom. Shell pasta - the pasta was homemade cause it tasted so light. I think the sauce was a little too light for me as well, but overall still a solid dish. Cioppino - Also a little lighter in flavor and I think just smaller in size in comparison to price. Seafood is fresh though, and that's clear in every dish here. Lonely Louie - the star of the night. I loved how fresh and bright this was. Everything mixed so well together and would definitely be getting this again. Atlantic Pie - their version of a key lime pie and was a tangy, nice finisher to the meal.
