I come here about 2-3 times a year- I live 2,200 miles away in the East. Yeah far way. I love their fresh sandwiches and homemade soups. It's a real treat for me - staff here is nice and friendly I could go to a new place here in downtown Snohomish but Gorilla Bites has never served a disappointing meal. Go with what you know:) read more

Tried this spot for a weekday lunch and had a pretty good experience overall! I went for the salad bar. It was decent and definitely filling. As a vegetarian, my protein option was pesto tofu, while the other options were salmon and tuna. They had all the usual greens and vegetables, and everything was served cold. There were a few in house dressings along with some store bought ones. I tried the balsamic vinaigrette and a honey ginger dressing. It was good, but I think it could be better. My husband ordered the pesto tofu sandwich with Moroccan soup, and that was the highlight. The sandwich was delicious, and his only regret was not getting the full size. The soup was also really flavorful. The place itself feels cozy. The food came out quickly, and we finished everything in no time. Parking is street parking, which might be tricky, especially on weekends. Overall, a good experience. I would definitely come back to try more sandwiches or burgers, but I would probably skip the salad bar next time. read more

We visited Grilla Bites and had some very tasty sandwiches, served with quality ingredients, on very nice bread. A welcoming staff and reasonable prices make this cute little place a winner! read more

I suppose if I needed an overpriced sandwich I would go here. No parking in downtown Snohomish. Nice room, kind of everywhere. Decent flow. Service is good, but you're buying overpriced sandwiches and drinks. Decent tables and space for about 30 ppl. It's not bad but the food was kind of meh. read more

Food is good, service is horrible. I had to repeat our order multiple times because the cashier was gossiping with a coworker. We were given the wrong sides, and after reminding the staff , we never recieved our specialty drinks and after 25 mins and finishing our meal. We asked for a refund on the drinks. Terrible service from staff that truely dont care. read more

This is one of the cutest downtown sandwich spots I've been too in recent times. We tried the pesto tofu, turkey cranberry, turkey pesto, garlic aioli burger and the all American burger. The garlic aioli and turkey cranberry were our favorites. The hummus with veggies and the nacho chips were nice too. The service was very welcoming and the ambiance was cute. A must visit in my opinion. read more

It's been over a decade since I've been to Grilla Bites! I could not remember the first time I had come here, sometime after college but still couldn't remember the food. We came here a few days before Christmas! I tried half a turkey sandwich with Bordscht soup and a side of veggies with hummus and my bf had a sandwich with chips. The BEST hummus I've ever had! read more

Drove all the way from Seattle to check out this vegan and gluten-free friendly restaurant. They boast organic ingredients, very friendly staff and lots of seating inside and outside. They had 4 soup specials today on the menu (who has that many options!!) and were kind enough for my kid to try the lentil one. The soups were hearty and delicious, and we had the turkey pesto and pastrami sandwiches. They were pretty good and served with tortilla chips or greens. Also for 2 half sandwiches and a soup, we did not break the bank either as you would in Seattle. Would definitely stop here again if fruit picking or in the area. read more

Once again a good restaurant in downtown Snohomish! On this outing I had the Blue Burger, only Veggie style and I really enjoyed the lighter meal involving that. I had veggie sticks to enjoy as my side. I was really into eating lighter and healthier this particular day! Food was awesome and so very fresh that it proved to be a very rewarding lunch! Staff was great and served us promptly making a great overall experience! read more

I've been going back and forth with Thai tuna and the BST Bacon Soy Tomato Sandwich. I give them both 5/5. The BST is the BEST vegetarian sandwich. It's tasteful and filling. My colleagues always ask me what I'm eating when I order the BST, the smell is beautiful. I love grilla bites! read more

I do laundry at a laundromat near by, I was hungry and always wanted to try this place. I got the sandwich that had pesto and turkey on it, the slim smoothie (berry and green tea with protein powder added). For my side I chose the veggies and hummus. The sandwich was delicious, the bread was a multi seed bread type, and reminded me of Dave's killer bread. The hummus was definitely organic and seemed like it was made in-house. The bathroom was kinda dirty, but they were busy, so that's okay. Definitely would return read more

food is great- clean and well made and keeps us coming back despite the owner being passive aggressive to us on two occasions. The most recent time was when we chose to feed our baby soup with peanuts in it. It's one thing to warn us but another to say it in a way that is indirect and feels judgmental. "What are we eating? There's no peanut allergies, I hope." Vs "just wanted to make sure you know there are peanuts in that in case she has an allergy." It has happened before, when she made a comment that was passive aggressive but should have been more direct. read more

I love a good sandwich and this spot does a solid! Their menu consists of a variety of sandwiches, burgers, and salads including vegan options. Tried the Thai Tuna and Turkey Cranberry ($11.75 each). Both were perfectly toasted, had an ample amount of filling (good bread to filling ratio too), and I LOVED the hummus side it was served with. Located in the MOST adorable area of downtown Snohomish. read more

That tuna sandwich by Chef Ann Dotai calls to me often. Her staff is great! Even half a sandwich is a FULL MEAL as the portions are enormous. My canned tuna at home just doesn't measure up. THIS GLUTEN FREE and sweet place with a secret back door entry makes it SO easy to carry out even if you see that long line out on First Street. A few of my medical massage patients from www.CedarAvenueMedicine.com go here, and I often urge new patients to stop by after they are relaxed from my treatment work. read more

Grilla Bites - Salads are the best in every season but especially when it heats up. Greens are healing foods!! Get a soup or sandwich to complete it. - American Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

Had lunch here today while doing in the area. My friend and I did the usual internet search to see what was open and what had good reviews. We decided on Grilla Bites. She ordered the portobello burger and I ordered the veggie grilla. We both commented on the healthier option of hummus that was served, instead of fries. While waiting for our food, I checked in on Yelp. Only to see that I ate here 11 years ago... and ordered the same thing!! While the hummus is still really good, I do think there are other hummus that are better. And, I still think it's a yummy sandwich. read more

Grilla Bites - Veggie Grilla, with hummus and veggies - American Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

Food was amazing. My boyfriend is vegetarian and he really enjoyed the amount of options he was able to choose from. I also really enjoyed my food! I got half the turkey and cranberry sandwich and a cup of Moroccan soup and it was delicious. For my side I chose veggies and hummus. Perfectly filling and I felt good after. My boyfriend got the "bacon" blue cheese burger (mushroom patty) and he said it was fresh and filling! He got the chips and hummus on the side. I don't feel like it's overpriced at all and we are definitely coming back here! Service was nice and quick too and there was enough space for us to sit comfortably at a table. read more

The reason I give this place 5 stars is because my son is a picky eater. This place is aimed to vegetarians and meat eaters alike. It is like the Switzerland of those two genres. They were like you like meat? We got you? You like tofu? We got you too! I took my friend who is visiting because her daughter is a vegetarian and it popped up as the first recommendation. They literally offer a vegetarian/meat version of almost everything on the menu. What can be better than that for friends who want to go out and have differing diets?! Her daughter was SO pleased because she said they don't offer stuff like this in Vegas much or in San Antonio where she previously lived. She loved her meal and my son, who is skeptical and on the spectrum, ate his bison burger 100% bun and all! I wasn't too hungry so I had chips and hummus and that was like the best I have ever had. Take about good seasoning!!!! Wow! It's a counter order service so you don't really talk to servers at your table but they are sweet at the register and the place is clean! I also love how it is gorilla themed! I will have to go again when I am hungry! Kudos to a great idea in this spot! I did get a pineapple smoothie it was YUM! read more

What a pleasant surprise this all natural and healthy restaurant spot in snohomish was. The food was so tasty and chowed down and forgot to take a photo! We order the turkey and pesto sandwich, Thai tuna sandwich as well as the fresh salad bar with a fresh pressed juice (jungle). Everything was delicious, fresh, healthy and well received by us as well as my 14 month old son. He loved the bread, peas and pesto. Servers were friendly and helpful, they recommended we try the fresh pressed jungle juice and it did not disappoint. Very mellow and laid back atmosphere. We will be ordering again. I'd like to grab some fresh beer and ginger juice for the fall. Antioxidant shots!! read more

The food makes you FEEL better. High quality ingredients with a homemade comforting taste. It's unfortunate how expensive it is for slightly smaller portion sizes but it's personally worth it to me for such fresh food. If I'm ever wanting a quick bite but not too keen on filling my body with greasey fried food - this is my go to. Nice overall vibe - everyone I've talked to (including the owner) have been super sweet. read more

Great sandwiches and smoothies! Stopped here before going to a pumpkin/apple farm and it hit the spot.

This is a great cafe for vegans, vegetarians, and meat eaters. They off lunch and breakfast type options. They are accommodating to your palate so if you want a substitute they will do there best to make it happen. Cute little space. It's right on the major shopping street so you can grab a bite and look through the antique stores or walk down by the river. read more

Lots of vegan *options* (if you can do soy). They really are just options, it's not a vegan menu. I ordered a half BBQ tofu sandwich for my dairy/egg allergic child, but to my surprise, I read on the menu that the tofu came with milk-based cheese. Maybe the cheese would have made a difference, but he was served one of the driest sandwiches I have ever seen! Very little BBQ sauce on the tofu, no other sauce, just a slice of soy bacon, a slice of tomato, and a slice of red onion on toast. I don't think I would have been able to eat such a dry sandwich, but my 3-year old loved it! Hummus was DELICIOUS (IMO and my 3yo's opinion) and LOVE the option of hummus and veg instead of chips! read more

I love this place for multiple reasons. Healthy organic food, fresh pressed juice including wheatgrass, kid friendly options, and fruit smoothies. I also love the location of this place, it gives me a reason to walk around downtown Snohomish and pop into other shops and antique stores. I recommend the Ginger Zinger fresh pressed juice. I don't even like beets but this is good and even better... it makes me feel good after drinking it. read more

I went here cause we just found out my 5 year old son has celiac disease so no no gluten!!

My son had gluten free chicken nuggets and I had a tofu barbecue sandwich was yummy! My husband had a bison burger he liked! The salad bar looked really good So of you want a healthy food or gluten free I recommend it here read more

We waited a very long time to get to the counter and when we finally got there, the girl with the tattoo is all over her fingers was very rude and definitely did not want to be there. In fact when we were outside the table next to us was talking about how rude she was and that they are regulars there and they want to say something, but they don't wanna make their experience unpleasant the next time . My half toasted cheese sandwich was covered with pickles, which I asked if they could put them on the side for my guest and my toasted cheese sandwich was covered in pickles. There wasn't a lot of toppings which I could care less about but they sure decided to put a ton of pickles on a half a sandwich that I did not ask for. They were very wet and they made my sandwich wet. when I told the owner about it she said things have been a little hectic in the kitchen. Yeah I understand that, but I still paid and even tipped you guys, I would've tried to return it but like I said it took forever to even get to the front counter and I was with a guest so I didn't wanna be rude while they were eating. I'm not coming here anymore too many other good choices, customer service still matters. read more

Grilla Bites is a lovely little sandwich shop located right in the heart of downtown Snohomish on Second Street. The owner is so kind and the food is exquisite. They sell some of the most delicious soups, sandwiches, and juices that I have ever tasted! I especially love that the menu offers healthy options to meet just about anyone's dietary needs. They have gluten-free bread, vegan cheeses, wild-caught salmon, whole-food choices, keto-friendly dishes...you name it! Pro tips: 1. In addition to its indoor seating, this restaurant offers a handful of outdoor tables that are perfect for a sunny day. 2. Parking can be a bit challenging along Second Avenue on weekends (and any time the sun comes out). If you are grabbing a to-go order, take advantage of the order pickup parking spot located in the (mostly private) lot behind the building. read more

This place is my favorite restaurant in snohomish They are conscious of the environment , care for the needs of vegetarians and vegans , they are kind and considerate to children and their food is incredible I wish I lived closer to this place Love the careful selection of everything read more

Easily the healthiest restaurant in Snohomish. They offer many low salt, low fat, high protein fresh meals that taste good. This visit we had a veggie burger (mildly sweet and savory veggies), half of a turkey/cranberry with a bowl of minestrone soup. Plenty of low fat protein, veggies, and flavor in both! We loved the side celery and carrot sticks with a green curry hummus dip. Yummy and a whole lot better for the mind and body than the usual fat and salty, low veggie dishes restaurants offer. Also Annie (owner) is easy to talk with and she's such a kind soul. read more

I love this place! The food is healthy, fresh, and tasty! Kid friendly and has a friendly staff who makes you feel instantly welcome.

This place is great! Diverse, healthy, nourishing menu that leaves you feeling satisfied and light. Kind staff that is personable and quick. Stopped in here with a friend while walking around downtown Snohomish and loved the way I felt when I left. The Turkey Pesto sandwich was put together perfectly, toasted , and somehow didn't fall apart at all while I was eating it. The Jungle Juice was sweet, ginger forward, and delicious! The hummus is crazy! Layers of flavor and its curry forward. Small place with a few tables and outdoor seating on the back. Parking is downtown snohomish street parking. Vegan, Vegetarian, organic, meat, soup, sandwiches, juices and smoothies for everyone! read more

Love this place, really like the healthy foods, our grand daughter told us about this place while we were visiting from Southern California. The owner was a very nice person who spoke to us, this is what a business should do, talk to the customers and she did! Really nice person. We will be back again at the end of the year!! To the owner, keep up the great service and wonderful food! Love Snohomish nice town, very different vide here in Washington State read more

The staff are incredibly friendly and the food is mostly, if not all organic. So if you're into that , this place is great for you. For me, the food was just okay and it was not worth the organic price. I'm glad I tried it but it's just not my thing read more

What a gem in downtown Snohomish! I'd come by sporadically the past year and just love the inside. Thanks to the sustainable, earthy and organic feel the inside has (think dark green, dark red, woodsy, landscape & farm land colors... it's such a refreshing dining experience. The variety of seating arrangements is quite pleasant plus simple yet thoughtful artwork. Cozy community boards in the front and back. And the bathroom has nice comfortable touches it. Although, now that I think about, the cool chimp logo originally drew me in. I saw that and immediately pictured 2 things: gorillas thrive on plants and watching released gorilla reunions is the best. The food definitely tastes fresh and overall very solid. Most things, I think, she keeps readily organic while other items likely depend on supplies. Every vegan and veganized option were pretty good. The salad bar was sharp & fresh; it would be neat to have at least 1-2 oil-free dressings and a few more grain & legume options; perhaps more fruit like strawberry, blueberry & chopped apricot, too. The tofu sandwiches are super tasty. The curry and BBQ are my favorite, so far. The portobello mushroom burger has nice flavor from the marinated 'shrooms. Great sides; you may want to season the hummus with a bit of s&p if you desire. For treats, the cookie texture is a bit too soft/crumbly for me but they were still quite nice, especially the pumpkin (the others just kind of taste like sweetened flour). One day, perhaps I can return and try the vegan breakfast options. Anne, the owner, is super friendly, cool and sweet. She was also pleasantly receptive to my various questions so big kudos for that. Her whole crew is rather laid back & chill. Because of their whole mission & motto, it'll be exciting to see how they evolve and incorporate more new organic/natural products in the mix (PM me for my preferences). Grilla Bites makes a great day trip to incorporate walking around town and as a spontaneous option to support their philosophy & vegan options. *** This review was written during the local COVID-19 Advisory as businesses were limiting operations.
