At the time it’d been a while since I looked into some new vegetarian restaurants, and I knew that Veggie Grill was the way to go! It’s a very popular restaurant for even the die-hard carnivores, and luckily my dad, being one of them, didn’t hesitate to stop for a bite!

I ordered a bunless Papa’s Portobello mushroom burger with a side of kale and sweet potato fries! It was fresh, tasty and absolutely flavorful. However, it was much smaller than anticipated and I didn’t feel satisfied until drinking a few glasses of water. My father loved his crispy chick’n sandwich but wasn’t a fan of his mashed cauliflower (which I gladly gobbled up for him!) nor his bland pea asparagus soup (nor was I). The sweet potato fries and buffalo cauliflower wings were gone in a heartbeat, of course! They’ve become family favorites ever since.

From my Instagram you can easily perceive that Veggie Grill has officially become one of my go-to restaurants. It has an awesome seasonal menu as well (their spring Banh Mi tofu salad was amazing!) and a large variety of fun dishes.

The second time I came I didn’t touch the asparagus soup but noshed on the blackened kale-style tempeh sandwich in a blink of an eye. It was my first time trying tempeh and I’ve been hooked since! My favorites are their salads and kale-style sandwiches.

This is the banh mi kale-style sandwich! Tasty but didn’t expect it to be deep fried, so I had to nit pick it a bit. I LOVED the eggplant and cauliflower mash–so tasty and flavorful! Overall, it wasn’t bad at all!

The more I came to Veggie Grill, the more I adored it. Every dish is vegan, includes a healthy balance of fats, protein and whole-grain carbs, and their tofu, chick’n protein and tempeh are made from completely organic, non-GMO and gluten free soybeans and fermented rice! It’s a wonderful place to go to for a vegan, healthier alternative to other dishes such as French fries, mashed potatoes, buffalo wings and more. You can also get their free app, and whenever you complete certain tasks such as e-mailing others about Veggie Grill or taking photos of your receipt, you earn points to get free entrees and snacks!
