    Tempeh tacos
    Claire O.

    Cute little restaurant! They have beautiful bathrooms, outdoor and indoor seating. Dogs are welcome.. and treated to great service as well! There were so many selections on the menu I wanted to try. Sadly I had to choose just one. I ordered the tempeh tacos ... they were soooo good. Every bite. I'm sure I'll be back!

    Veganista
    John B.

    A lot of the brunch places which open early were already full, but when I popped into this place around 11, it was not (yet). They had a patio and an indoor area, which were not all that different in temperature, but notably the patio allows dogs. The menu here offers ample options for all diets. I still felt a bit lame ordering a salad called the "Veganista", but when it came I took one look at it and thought "that is what food is supposed to look like". The greens tasted fresh, and my overflowing plate included fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, some tempeh, and a couple of slices of spiced avocado toast. If there are any food groups not represented there, it's probably not something you should be eating. It all mixed together rather delightfully and made for a good start of the day. You certainly don't have to be vegan to eat here, but if you are and you want to eat somewhere where your non-vegan friends will be looking longingly at your plate, this is the place.

    Tomato soup and grilled cheese

    $16 for a half cup of tomato soup/grilled cheese is a robbery, respectfully. Staff is really nice though.

    Curry

    This place is great! The Garam Masala Yellow Curry was absolutely fantastic--rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The burgers were also delicious! On top of that, the service was friendly and attentive. If you're in Boone, this spot needs to be on your list!

    Watauga Burger- cooked perfectly and flavorful! Jalepeno, ginger, and cilantro margarita tasted and smelled fantastic! There was a bit of a wait, but the beautiful and patient bartender ( Manager or Owner?) allowed us to sit at a hightop table and serve us there. All 4 of us loved our meal, drinks & service! Highly recommend!

    From Patio

    We wanted healthy and colorful, and we got it! Wonderful lunch patio with dog after morning hike. Had Souper Special and Santa Fe salad. Great vibe and service!

    Food quality / price (value) rating 10. The atmosphere is eclectic, and they have a wonderful outdoor seating area. The menu is a wide ranging mix of extraordinarily well chosen dishes, all of which have unique twists you won't find anywhere else! I had the Grilled Cheese Extraordinaire with bacon that came on a perfectly grilled locally baked bread. It was quite likely the nest grilled cheese I've ever had. A cup of spicy homemade sweet potato corn chowder came with it, and was a perfect accent to go with the grilled cheese. They have a full bar and a wide variety of canned and bottled beers. Their specialty cocktails include several unique and original recipes, including a special method that freezes water at the bottom of the cocktail glass where it remains while you drink your cocktail - very clever and original. We finished our meal with a couple of house made blueberry sugar cookies that were fantastic! The manager, Carrie, was very attentive answering our questions and informative regarding the food and its preparation and local sourcing. Our server, Kacya, was also attentive with the service we were given. The prices were right, and the portions were generous. This restaurant deserves a rare rave review.

    Chicken plate

    I feel bad giving this really cute restaurant 3 stars. but the problem is the food! The restaurant is so cute and I think the menu is great. I love how there are so many healthy options. They also have a beautiful porch. I can see why people like it here! However, I think the food is really low effort compared to the price. The chips we got were *actually* just cold Tostitos chips straight from the bag. I was actually shocked lol. I would at least buy restaurant style chips. Or even warm them up! The entrees were fine but not good enough to fix my opinion. Also, the desserts come from the freezer (they bought them from a bakery and froze them). And that's totally fine! I just didn't get that impression from the menu.

    Watagua burger and salad

    Staff, food and drinks amazing. Quick service over all and no complaints on anything! Wait time was no time on a Saturday after 1.

    This sums up the attitude. Am I a customer or a visitor to your basement bar.  " Bad Bi*#ches run this s*#t". Are you kidding me ?

    This was our first time ever eating here after seeing it online. I am sodium restricted and like to…read moreeat healthy in general, as anti-inflammatory as possible. This restaurant makes it possible.. I was told that they not add any salt to any of their items except to the vegetables and you can request it no salt and season it yourself. I had the create-your-own-bowl with the quinoa, kale and shredded beef, and it was so good. My husband had the turkey burned ends flatbread and his was equally good, I will order it next time. The ambience is nice, service is outstanding. I highly recommend. This was my birthday lunch and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    I enjoy the food here from time to time. We used to order batches of their packaged frozen meals…read moreregularly. My favorite item on their menu is the ¨build your own¨ bowl. I think this place is worth a try if you are looking for a healthy lunch in Boone. The counter service at Clean Eatz used to be excellent, friendly, and helpful. Everyone here used to be on top of things. It has gone downhill recently. On my last visit, the person taking our order was distracted, inattentive, and not particularly helpful- seemingly more focused on flirting with the guy in line in front of us than paying any attention to other customers. I went to the counter after our meal to order more food to go and to get a to-go box. I was the first person in line. I was ignored by the fellow at the counter, who instead waited on two other people who came in after me and who were clearly behind me in line. This place caters to the gym crowd. It seems maybe the gym crowd are the only customers they want. There are two significantly better restaurants in the same shopping complex. Try MINT Indian and STICK BOY Kitchen for friendly service and delicious food as well.

Dori and I were looking for lunch one day while visiting Boone, and ended up in FARM, mainly due to visiting Boone Belles right next door. What was an accidental encounter turned in a fantastically spiritual experience. Like all my write ups, I am giving my opinion based on the type of restaurant, service level expectation and the price. The business model is to feed everyone who walks in whether you can pay for it or not. You can eat for free, pay $10 (or as much as you like), buy food tokens to leave in the token jar (passing on a meal) or work off your food in the kitchen or helping out... again as much or little as you want. The atmosphere is what your would expect in a cafeteria with folks servicing you off the line. The food is fresh farm to table and you only pay $10 for your meal, of which they have few options and basically tell what you can order. ... the food for the price was exceptional. There were folks from all walks of life from well off families to homeless folks off the street. The tables are tight and few in number, but not so much to be instructive. They are close enough to do one of my favorite things, meeting people and hearing their stories. So eat, meet and move on to make room for others. You really can miss it if you do not know it's there...look for it tucked away between Boone Belles and the Horton Hotel. In summary, if you are looking for a different dinner adventure, a good meal for services and price, and want to do some good in the world please check out the FARM Restaurant.
