Lovely breakfast here with girlfriend. Sweet staff. Clean booth. Pretty food. I forgot the photo... I had the avocado toast with poached eggs. Delicious! Large side salad dressed in a yummy vinaigrette. We walked the mall after our meal. We both concluded we would do it all again! read more

Service was friendly. Very busy location inside galleria mall. We stopped by the outside counter to get some soft serve. Order: strawberry cheesecake soft serve. Flavor was ok but not great. The problem was the texture. It was grainy not smooth. The worker did not correctly fill the cone evenly so it was tippy initially. Do not recommend this flavor. read more

The service here is always terrible. I mostly have gotten takeout from their counter and the people working are always rude. One one occasion the girl taking our order started having a conversation with one of the other workers (who looked like he was on break or something) in the middle of taking our order. There was zero acknowledgment of what we had said or apologies for the interruption. She just continued her conversation and rang us up. We should have just walked away because that was ridiculous. Today I ordered a wrap to go and the person at the counter asked if I wanted one or two peanut sauces. I said, "I don't know, two I guess." There was no indication from them that there was an extra charge for two or that one is standard and that a second is extra. When they rang me up, the price seemed higher than I was expecting so I asked for an itemized receipt. They said they would give me one after I signed my receipt (I paid with a credit card). I did, they walked away to get my wrap. Another worker (looked like the manager) came up to the register to take the next person's order. I told them I was waiting for my itemized receipt and they printed it for me. Sure enough, I was charged $1 extra for additional sauce. I then told that person working that the previous person had just asked me if I wanted one or two sauces but gave no indication that two was "extra" or an additional charge and that I didn't need or want an "extra" sauce. At first they seemed confused and said oh that's ok, you can keep it. And I said no, I was charged an extra dollar for this and wasn't told I was going to be, I don't want it. Then they understood what happened, apologized and re-rang me up without the "extra" sauce. I wonder how many times this happens to people without them knowing. Seems like a sneaky way of getting more money for basically nothing (the tiny container of sauce was insane to me that they would charge $1 extra for even if that was something I had wanted! 10 cents maybe, a dollar?! Insane. This was definitely the last time I go there. They need to do better at training their staff. read more

This place had a lot of vegan options and various other fresh and healthy options. I got the good planet Earth burger and it was very good and well put together along with the trio assorted kettle baked chips that were delicious. The service was awesome. They told me at 10:15 minute wait but it took me five minutes to get there from my other destination and the food was ready when I got there The place was set up nice and it was inside of a shopping mall plaza place. I would recommend this and get this again read more

I came by with my boyfriend for a date night and we loved our meal! It was both of our first time and we had made a reservation but did not really need one since it was quieter. There is also plenty of parking in the street. I got the go green lemonade and absolutely loved it! It was so refreshing and had a very fresh taste as well. I also got the vegan banh mi without tofu which was delicious. My only complaint was that I ordered the banh mi without jalapeños and then it came with them on, so I had to remove them myself before eating. Our waitress was very nice as well but didn't notice the accidental jalapeños as well. Overall great visit here though! read more

A Hundred and twenty dollars not well spent. Dinner for three. Bland veggie stir fry, asked for soy sauce and discovered after pouring it on my meal that is was red wine vinegar. Dry carrot cake. Filthy bathrooms! Polite server who seemed to forget about us. I hope this was just one bad day and not the norm. read more

This review is from the perspective of a hungry vegetarian. I just arrived to my hotel and there was not much options at the restaurant and the front desk manager recommended me to go to this place even though I had to take a $25 Uber to come here, after arriving to the mall, I finally found this place and like the little takeout. But steps away so that there was a sit down. Place is spacious and decent menu. Fortunately, I was able to find options for me, including a asparagus soup, good tea and some delicious stirfry with vegetables and tofu. Is it pricey yes it's the only place around here other than sweet green for a hungry vegetarian . This place has a lot of people which is a good sign. I am glad the manager recommended me to come here. read more

Absolutely love Good Earth! My go-to is the chopped salad (no tortilla strips) paired with a refreshing strawberry lemonade juice. The staff is always friendly and incredibly attentive, especially when it comes to allergies--they truly go the extra mile to make sure everything is safe. Additionally, they have made some updates to the restaurant in the last year with brighter lighting and interior design. If you're shopping in the area, this is a must-visit spot for a healthy and delicious meal! read more

The decor has been updated, but the food is pretty much the same as it was in the 70s. I don't really like anything on the standard menu. I basically order off of the special menu, hoping for flavor. The ingredient quality is fine, and execution is just fine, but you should not expect much in the way of spices/added flavor. The servers range from fine to friendly, but I wouldn't expect anything beyond standard. Galleria is not my favorite place to eat, but I suppose it is probably my 3rd favorite in the Galleria? read more

Haven't eaten here, but I want to because all of the food looks amazing. I came here randomly because I saw a girl walking around the mall with what I thought was a really green looking matcha but it was actually a green juice lemonade.. which I had to have. It was incredible. Fresh fruit, fresh lemonade.. just perfect! A lil pricey but definitely worth it. Customer service was good and will be back to try food! read more

Did not have the greatest meal. The burger did not taste too good, it was too sweet. Not sure what made it sweet, but it was on the sweeter side then the savory side. The fiberry smoothie was bland and the strawberry lemonade was not the best. It just looks like they added strawberry syrup to the lemonade. The tuna sandwich was good and simple. The salad was ok, what can go wrong with a salad. read more

Wow!!! This place was incredible and we didn't feel overly stuffed when we left after lunch. My hubby had the Mediterranean Vegetable soup and shared my cashew chicken salad sandwich, it was all deliciously fresh. Our server was very attentive without being intrusive. She was amazing, Cleanliness in a restaurant is crucial to use and Good Earth was meticulously clean. It had a great vibe. It was a rainy day but I hope next time we can enjoy their gorgeous patio area for dining. read more

I met a colleague here for a meeting and it was perfect. We had a reservation which was a good call as it was very busy over lunch on a weekday. We were immediately seated at a nice booth. I chose the Greek salad and I loved it. I did not add meat. I liked the olive spread and hummus I could pair with the pita bread. It was a perfect amount for lunch. Very happy with my choice. There were many items I wanted to try on the menu. So many healthy options. Have to come back again. Service was good. I found a parking space right on the front. All good. read more

I loved visiting this restaurant while in town to see family. I have been a fan of their black sweet and spicy tea and had it iced! We each ordered different meals and everyone loved all of the dishes... and you can't not have a dessert!! Their coconut cake is their best seller. We ordered that and a carrot cake and most of agreed the coconut cake was the winner. The service was great and the atmosphere was bright and felt cozy. read more

Even the soups are great. My favorites include chicken Souvlaki and turkey meatloaf. Service is great.

Good place to sit and have a healthy meal and some delicious tea!! They have delicious desserts also!!

We had lunch here before checking out the Galleria flower show. The place was packed and despite having a reservation we had to wait about 10 minutes (not the end of the world, but a reservation should mean I have a table). There are a lot of unique (not weird, but something you won't get everywhere) options on the menu. Highlights of the meal were the cream of asparagus soup and hibiscus mimosa. Our server was very friendly, though somewhat forgetful. It seemed like we were the first table on her "rounds", and by the time she got back to the service area she had forgotten what we asked for. The atmosphere is light and airy, perhaps a little more open than I would like. Overall, though, a good meal and enjoyable time. read more

3.75* (out of 5) Food: 4* Atmosphere: 5* Value: 3* Service: 3* 10/29/2023 My wife found this as an interesting place to try for brunch Sunday morning while visiting in Minneapolis. Overall impression: Beautiful atmosphere with unique menu items that are a bit above average quality-wise, but it is a bit pricey. We found that the atmosphere definitely fits the modern beauty of the Galleria area, as it is beautiful (see multiple pictures). The menu had some truly unique items and they pride themselves in their smoothies (we didn't have one so can't comment). The prices seemed high (likely due to the Galleria area and lease costs) and most dishes came with little to no protein, so you had to pay even more to add it. For our meals, I ordered the Breakfast Bowl (see picture) while my wife opted for the Shakshuka with added Turkey Sausage (see picture) along with a side of Buttermilk Cakes (see picture). The Breakfast Bowl was solid and we both enjoyed the Buttermilk Cakes. My wife wasn't as impressed with the Shakshuka - her primary disappointment being that the poached eggs were over-cooked. We really enjoyed our dessert though. We ordered the Cheesecake (see picture) and Iced Ginger Cookie (see picture) to share at the table and all of us enjoyed both of them. The Cheesecake was gluten sensitive, so had minimal to no crust and wasn't the baked variety, but the flavor was good.

OMGOSH!! The Good Earth!! Just LOVE this place!! We don't have one CA anywhere near where I live, so when my daughter suggested this place, she was SHOCKED at how excited I got. Good Earth tea is amazing! I had the 10 igrain pancakes. I was in heaven!! These are the best pancakes, well, at least to me! The service was great. We sat outside on their patio which was quaint & very nice due to the weather. It's one of my favorite places to go when I'm in Edina,IA. read more

My mom took me to the Good Earth back in the 70's and 80's when I was little. The Roseville location was where we went. I'll never forget her favorite meal: Good Earth iced tea and a cashew chicken salad sandwich. We always got a chocolate chip cookie too. I still make Good Earth ice tea at home in memory of my mom. And every time I go back to see my sister in Minnesota, we go to the Good Earth in Edina to remember mom and we get an ice tea and cashew chicken salad sandwich. It is so good! We also get a chocolate chip cookie to go. I crave it until my next visit. I will be heartbroken if this last location ever closes. read more

Yelp Review: Good Earth Café Despite its high prices, Good Earth Café is probably the least expensive dining option in the Galleria--though that's not saying much. The food is undeniably good, but they seem to cut corners in ways that are hard to overlook. For example, I ordered the bison stew, which sounded amazing on the menu. When it arrived, it was 95% vegetable stew with only two tiny chunks of bison, probably weighing about an ounce each. I brought this up with the server, who told me that's the "intended portion size." Really? At these prices, I expected more than a glorified veggie soup. We also tried the wild mushroom shepherd's pie. What we got was essentially a 3-inch stack of mashed potatoes with less than half an inch of mushrooms underneath. And the mushrooms? Hard as shoe leather. While the flavors were decent overall (minus the mushrooms), it felt like the portions and execution didn't match the price tag. Oh, and they charge an extra dollar if you want your beverage without ice. Seriously? Nickel-and-diming your customers is never a good look. Good Earth Café has potential, but the combination of corner-cutting and unnecessary upcharges left me feeling a little shortchanged. read more

This restaurant has a reputation for healthy options. A group of us gathered here for dinner and scoped out the menus. The seasonal specials menu had the Vietnamese Shaking Beef that sounded really good. However, to cut down on the red meat we asked if we could substitute the beef for chicken and voilà, the request was granted. We love when restaurants are accommodating and can make substitutions. All three of us ordered the same thing. It was satisfying but the chicken was a little dry. For dessert, I ordered the spice cake. Soooo good! I tried to exercise some self control and took home half for later. It even tasted better the next day. read more

Good Earth is a classic. It has been around 1978 and they have had their Chicken Cashew sandwich since their original menu. From a consumer standpoint, sometimes just having one great item is enough, and for me, it's the Chicken Cashew sandwich. The white meat chicken is flavorful and perhaps what makes it so appealing is contrast between the chewy chicken with the perfect amount of mayo and the crunchy cashews and lettuce. The hearty multi-grain bread adds to the crunch and taste. There must be something else in there because I have not been able to replicate this at home. The side salad (chips or fruit are other options) was marred by the dressing dressing, a citrus vinaigrette. Although the spring greens were moist, I could not taste any dressing. I asked the waiter to bring me extra dressing and added more. It was then that I realized the vinaigrette tasted like it was all oil, and no vinegar. This made it just oily without the needed tang of the vinegar. This was unfortunate because the greens were fresh, green, and crispy. My wife had a daily special, the strawberry salad with poppyseed dressing which she said was very good. All of the items on the menu are fresh and lean into healthy ingredients and taste is never sacrificed in the process. Good Earth is in Galleria Mall in Edina and the mall was jam-packed today because of Flower Show. Fortunately, we made reservations (for lunch), which I would recommend at any time. read more

I love the concept of this restaurant and I've heard that the food is generally quite good (fresh, organic, lots of DF and GF options). My specific experience was just blasé. I felt so bad for the waitress as you could clearly tell she was overworked and stressed with how many tables she had, which is just a sign of the times so I don't fault the restaurant for that at all. The menu offered lots of fresh, healthy, and sustainable foods. We ultimately decided on the Mediterranean Greek Salad with added chicken and the Grain Bowl Salad. You really can't go wrong with a Greek salad IMO but I really did not like the flavor of the tabbouleh, chicken, and hummus (so I didn't even touch those) and my friends grain bowl salad was kind of joke with very little quinoa and mostly all baby kale and arugula. It was like they completely forgot all of the other ingredients listed on the menu (supposed to come with carrot, cucumber, peppers, edamame, avocado, sunflower, sprouts and chia seeds). She said it lacked flavor all together and was really disappointed with her meal (she had a few bites and was done). The waitress was extremely sweet and offered to take the added chicken off our bill, which was nice. But overall I don't think I'll be back. I'm a little torn because my mom has a very sensitive diet (GF and vegan), so I loved that the menu was very inclusive in that regard. Also anyone with a restrictive diet knows that restaurants offering such options are few and far between, so kudos to Good Earth on that. I'm excited for her to have more options and recommended she give it a try. Overall though, kind of a lack luster dining experience. read more

Been eating at Good Earth for many years but have never actually sat down and dined in before. Many other comments mention this but it's true so I'll repeat it- interior is pretty old school and service isn't over the top great, but the food is good. Today we got a couple different versions of the tuna salad sandwich. The bread was so fresh and soft, and everything came in a perfectly sized portion for lunch. Swinging through the exterior walk-up counter for a cookie, a smoothie, or a sandwich is a must after shopping the Galleria. Everything here is always super flavorful. read more

We walked in, were greeted and seated quickly. However, after that no one brought us water or menus or acknowledged us for a solid 10 to 15 minutes. A server finally came and brought us water and made no mention of the wait. It wasn't very crowded inside. I ordered the gazpacho soup and it was pretty tasty! My friend raves about their ice tea. I tried it and it has lots of flavor. For dinner I had the vegetable curry. It was tasty as well! The meal was about $20 (with a protein added) - and was enough for dinner and leftovers for lunch: The environment inside it's kind of plain and seems a little outdated. It was clean, however. We left to walk around for a few minutes and came back to ask if we could use the bathroom before we left and were told no. They were about to close and we weren't allowed back in. I'm glad I tried this place once but not sure I'll come back. It is a good place to come if you want to eat more vegetables - lots of options! read more

I was happy to learn that Good Earth was still open in The Galleria. It's been ages since I've been to both the restaurant and the mall. I was reminded how much I loved their Sweet & Spicy tea. I used to drink it by the gallon. I fear that I will be returning to doing so, now that I've had a taste of it again. There was only one bad thing about the visit. The Good Earth Burger is not easy to eat. I ended up with very messy hands as the burger would not stay together. It is quite delicious, so I was determined to eat it. It's rather large, so I hadn't planned on eating the whole thing, but there was no way I couldn't. If you order this burger, DO NOT CUT IT IN HALF! I believe that this was my downfall. If I'd just eaten it normally, I think that it would have been ok. Our waiter was great and he found me a few wet-naps to clean up. I was very thankful for this. My friend had the Chicken Souvlaki and was very happy with it. We used to come here to eat together years ago, so it was a mostly enjoyable blast from the past. Park in the area under the skyway and go in the door opposite the men's store. The restaurant is right at the top of the stairs. We will return, and I may try that burger again. Yes, it was THAT good. read more

For healthy eaters (or those trying to become one), this is your place! The vegan options are great! Even the veggie burger is not the store bought kind and you can actually see the vegetables pushed together to make it. On top of that, it was delicious! For the non-vegan, there's plenty of choices too. They even have chips that are oven baked! Bottom line, whether you eat meat here or go vegan, you can't go wrong with your choice. I do recommend making a reservation as the place gets packed over lunch. Via the OpenTable app is the quickest or just call. Good drink options of wine, beer, and tea! Worth the try if you're at the Galleria in Edina! read more
