Our son and daughter-in-law raved about the "healthy" food at this place and we met them for a very tasty lunch. We snarfed a couple Alamo plates with a plethora of goodies, brown rice, shredded kale, TX blend of shredded cheeses, cherry tomatoes, black beans, diced red onion, tortilla chips, roasted pieces of chicken thigh and a killer chipotle-lime vinaigrette and a squeeze of lime....came with a slice of sourdough.....amazing. The girls both got Meditteranean protein plates, white basmati rice, roasted pieces of chicken thigh, mozzarella-tomato salad, warm chickpeas, roasted broccolini, hummus, tzatziki spicy harissa, yum. Our granddaughter got her own plate, a bento box wit' grilled brussel sprouts, grilled cauliflower, brown rice and grilled chicken which she kept trying to feed to grandma. The Kids meal was half price. We shared three cookies between 3 adults and 2 grandbabies, one L&G cookie, a brownie and one rosemary shortbread cookie. Everybody got to taste my berry smoothie. Everything we tried was very good. We'll be back for more of these "healthy" goodies.

Salad

Decided to come back for another delicious meal. We got the Veggie salad and Thaiger king salad. Both were SO delicious. The serivce was quick and timely. The food was flavorful and the restaurant itself was clean and tidy. Would def come back everyday if i could!

I have driven by this spot so many times, and I always told myself I would stop by. I finally got around to it, and it was well worth the wait The exterior is very inviting, with a well lit entrance, cozy patio seating, and visible signage. The interior is exceptionally clean and clean, spacious, and trendy I was impressed my the signature salad/bowl options. There are so many fresh ingredients available, everything looked and sounded delicious The person assisting me with my order was one of the nicest employees I'd interacted with in a long time. Great suggestions, small talk, and he made me feel welcome and well taken care of There is a big/long menu above the ordering station with clear names, ingredients, etc. The salads/bowls aren't overly pricey, and for the amount of components you get, I found there to be an incredible amount of value The food was tasty and fresh. Everything was made to order, but didn't take too long to assemble Some tips: Ask someone who works there way they recommend. Definitely ask for some of their sour dough on the side, it pairs really well with any bowl. The fresh/healthy drinks are very delicious and are noticeably "healthy," but in the best way possible Cheers!!

Common table salad.

Great salads with super fresh ingredients. The salads changed depending on the season. Lots of staff working.

Common Table

Wow wow wow! Such an amazing healthy restaurant! Think of this as a healthy version of chipotle & cava if they had a baby. They have bowls, salads & actual plate dishes if you're more on the hungry side. When you first walk in for the first time it is a bit confusing where to order due to there being no clear signage/arrow or line divider saying to order here sort of like chipotle. Once you get there the staff is friendly and offer suggestions and top items most people order. I got the Common Table grain bowl and it was DELISH! So happy I found this and will forever be a returning customer :) the cookies there are also yummy!

our empty bowls bc it was so good forgot to take a pic before

Lemon-Caper Salmon

Went here for the first time for weekday lunch. Was not busy at all but it seemed like they had a ton of call in or delivery orders. Every option looked amazing but was watching calories so went with this salmon dish. Man was it good. Was a great combination of flavors and I didn't use any dressing. I don't think I would have changed anything about it. I will definitely be going back.

Now that 2024 has rolled around, many of us are detoxing and trying to get ourselves set up with healthier habits while eating delicious food. Leaf & Grain embodies both, while maintaining consistency and has garnered a loyal following in the process. They're a stellar option in West U and certainly one of my favorite places to not just enjoy a good meal, but a meal that's good for you. I tend to prefer coming on the weekdays, as it's never too busy in here. The clean and bright interior makes this place an ideal spot for a quick lunch, meeting, or even a small gathering. They have limited outdoor seating and plenty of parking to boot. One cannot go wrong with either a grain bowl or a salad bowl. The Alamo or Common Table bowl has been my go-tos, and the L&G Caesar and the Autumn Harvest have been excellent salad choices. I particularly enjoy the seasonal offerings, which vary throughout the season but are great even if they are temporary. I've been hooked on their hot plates as of late, the French Country Dinner is a real treat. The smoothies are not talked about enough. The Chunky Monkey is always a fun choice, but the Leaf & Green is always a reliable choice. Berry Boost! is really great during the summer time, but the Strawberry Banana is actually a thumbs up for kids. To make things even more awesome, their ultra generous first time Yelp check-in offer (25%) is easily among the best in the area. Plenty of corporate chains do what Leaf & Grain does but very few do it as well. It's hard not to be impressed with all that Deets and his amazing team has done. Their empire has slowly grown to several locations, their quality and operations have never wavered. I am happy to support a local chain and truly feel they're one of the best local fast casual options in the city.

Greek salad
Sunny B.

Leaf and Grain is a great healthy restaurant that primarily sells salad bowls. I do wish leaf and grain had better options for vegetarians. Most of their salad bowls have grilled chicken as the base protein. You customize everything. I replaced chicken for grilled tofu. However, I thought my salad was overpriced for the amount of tofu I got. I ordered the good greek salad. The salad was flavorful and dressing was tasty. Definitely get dressing on the side so you can adjust flavor to your liking. The complementary sourdough bread was also delicious. Compared to other salad places, Leaf and Grain is more pricey with less topping options for customizing your dish but it is a healthy lunch/dinner choice.

The pick up are; ordering is just to the right-all ingredients visible.

They have very delicious warm and cold bowls and salads here and are happy to customize and let you sample ingredients. BUT! For me, the star item at this eatery is the green smoothie! It's deliciously fresh AND tastes good. It is chock full of greens and the perfect consistency to me. I started drinking them over a year ago after a surgery I had that I couldn't eat solids for a while. These were a life saver! I felt like I was getting nutrients and they are filling. They're so good that for a time I would order a multiple to go and freeze them for later. So, yes the food is good, but the green smoothie is a hidden gem.

We had the best time at Toasted Coconut! Super cute fun bar! Amazing Service! The burger was so…read morefresh and amazing! The cocktails were well balanced and fresh!

Passed by this place multiple times and finally decided to stop in for drinks and appetizers…read more The ambience grabs your attention just walking into the restaurant they have string lights along the walkway and low amber lights as you go inside. They have an outdoor eating area, a bar area, and seating in the very back. It's very spacious, comfortable, and intimate. The theme of the restaurant is seen all over from the moment you enter, to the music, the menu and the restroom. They paid close attention to detail with decorating. We had an amazing server, delicious drinks (a must try), and ok food. We ordered four drinks the painkilla, vamos à la playa, captains grog, and the Hemingway daiquiri. All were great drinks and we loved how they give you flavor characteristics of the drinks on the menu. The appetizers that we ordered were the sweet and sour cauliflower and the pork dumplings, which is why I gave this place four stars. The presentation of both appetizers were excellent. However, the pork dumplings were disappointing. They came with only six dumplings for $17, were served cold, and are very bland. In my opinion, they weren't worth the price. On the other hand, the sweet and sour cauliflower was our favorite and is definitely a must-try.

Great service, delicious food, high quality ingredients!…read more Our server was incredibly attentive to us without having to appear every ten minutes to interrupt our conversation. When you first walk in, the interior is dimly lit, warm, and welcoming. The arugula salad appetizer was the perfect balance of light and flavorful with a good peppery kick from the fresh arugula. The Nancy cakes were simple but comforting, and with the roe made it an incredible experience. We also tried the lamb tartare and the burger, and both blew our minds away. Just the quality of the ingredients spoke for themselves. The flavor was perfectly balanced, and I was very impressed by the consistency of all the dishes. Highly recommend!

This was our second visit, and unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to the hype this time around…read more We arrived earlier than our reservation and they weren't able to accommodate us inside, so we opted for the patio. I was actually pleasantly surprised, it was spacious, shaded, and really comfortable. We started with the Nancy Cakes, which are always a 10/10 and easily the highlight of the meal. We also tried the yellowtail aguachile with roasted poblano and sunflower seed za'atar, which was just okay--nothing particularly memorable. For my entrée, I ordered the burger and specifically asked for the aioli on the side. Unfortunately, it came on the burger, and there was so much of it that it completely overpowered everything else. Coming back after a few years, we were hoping to be reminded why this place is so popular, but overall we left a little underwhelmed. I'm not sure we'd go out of our way to snag a reservation again.
