Tender Greens - San Diego

I really enjoyed the Happier Vegan Bowl at this restaurant. The fresh lettuce, couscous salad, farro, hummus, and harissa dressing were all delicious. The grilled bread was particularly tasty and well-oiled, making it a standout component of the dish. Although I'm usually particular about falafel, I wasn't a huge fan of the ones in this bowl as they were a bit mushy in texture. (This item is listed as vegan on the menu).

This restaurant is a nice place that can get very busy. They only offer a couple of vegan options, including a vegan salad and a falafel sandwich. The prices are reasonable and it is definitely worth a visit.

Tender Greens is a popular health food chain with several locations. While they may not have a wide variety of vegan options, their dishes are delicious. Two favorites are the Roasted Tomato Soup, a comforting and vegan-friendly option, and the Happy Vegan Salad, a satisfying mix of greens, quinoa, tabbouleh, green hummus, and farro with a lemon vinaigrette.

The restaurant only has a couple vegan options but I enjoy the Happy Vegan salad. It’s not going to wow you but the ingredients are tasty and fresh. It’s a little disappointing that advertises itself as offering healthy, green options only has one vegan salad.

Honestly a huge “WT*” after wasting space in my stomach at tender greens SD. Falafel ARENT vegan, it took 2 team members to get me a solid “has just. little dairy” answer. One mediocre salad choice the ‘happy vegan’ resulting in one very unhappy vegan
