Chiquita Banana, Tuna Sandwich, vegetable lentil soup

Bryan N.

First timer here! Was looking for something refreshing and stumbled across this hidden gem. I was surprised to see the orange color of the tuna sandwich but it's from the carrots, which was new to me. Definitely enjoyed it! The chiquita banana smoothie was tasty. I don't think I've ever had a peach, coconut and banana smoothie before (or even thought to put that combo together), but it was better than I expected. The food was quick to come out and the staff was super friendly. The decor is very inviting and relaxing. Overall great first experience. They've earned themselves a returning customer!

I absolutely adore The Greenery and their amazing selection of healthy options all day long. Their 1/2 sandwich lunch specials that includes a salad or soup is just the perfect size for my lunchtime delight. Christine is seriously the best too. I love the ambiance in here, feels like I just stepped out of my favorite Yoga studio right into a healthy kitchen. I'm so thankful for Guy, Christine and the crew here for leaving me with so many healthy options for my mid day meals. They're a little off the street in the Tuskatella center off the 55 at Katella, we love this place!! A++ 5 Stars

#4 Turkey Avocado Sandwich #2 Chicken-Cashew Sandwich

Stefanie R.

Omg I could not be happier I decided to come here today!! The food was exquisite! I typically have a smaller appetite so I would've ordered their lunch special because it's ONLY 12 dollars! I got a half of the turkey avocado sandwich and a half of the chicken cashew sandwich. They were both sooo delicious!!! It was so clean and just such good quality that even though I ate a lot of food my body feels great. I also got a cup of the broccoli potato cheese soup which was to die for?? Better than any broccoli cheese or potato cheesy soup I have ever had! It was so clean and cute inside and Sami was so sweet friendly and helpful! The vibe was so cute and the food was so good I can't wait to come back try more!!

The Best Soup, Salad and Sandwich place in Orange ! I literally eat here 2-4 times a week. Everything is sooo homemade fresh and yummy I love the huge chunks of potato's and broccoli in their soup it has great flavor. All fresh homemade. They even have a vegetable lasagna that is delicious oh and another one of my favorites is the teriyaki chicken, rice and vegetable plate It's a MUST TRY. Here's a pic of my soup and salad today

I had a really lovely lunch here. Very friendly service, you can tell it's a family-owned restaurant. The food came out quickly and was tasty and healthy. Simple food done right. Their lunch special was $12.95 and came with a half sandwich, cup of soup, side of chips and salsa. I ordered the potato broccoli cheddar soup and turkey avocado sandwich. I would come back and support this friendly business!

Chicken Cashew Salad 10/10! Fresh and Very Tasty I highly recommend!

The Greenery has been a staple in my life since childhood. I have so many memories of grabbing lunch here while my mom was at work, so I was thrilled to move back to the area and be close by again. Their cashew chicken salad is absolutely to die for, and whether you're in the mood for a sandwich, a salad, or even just their iced tea, everything tastes incredibly fresh and made with care. The staff is always kind and welcoming, which makes every visit even better. On top of the great food, it's such a peaceful spot to spend some time. Whether you're meeting a friend for lunch or getting a little work done, the atmosphere is hard to beat. I'm so happy to have this local favorite back in my routine! read more

My autistic daughter asks for The Greenery food quote frequently. Her meal of choice is the broccoli cheese soup and the avocado sandwich. If we could go here everyday, we absolutely would the service is always fast, friendly, and welcoming.

This place has been here since I have been in high school! ...and that's been awhile :) it changed hands a few years back but came in today and they still have amazing wholesome ingredient meals. When I need a reset, I'll be back again and again! Owners are very sweet. I got talking to one of them and they mentioned how the murals were all freehand and done in 48 hours.

First time coming and won't be back. They seemed confused about vegetarian versus vegan saying that the lasagna was vegan when it wasn't. I got the tuna sandwich. The bread was so dry, cold and hard to eat and the tuna was also dry. I asked for a side of mayo and they brought honey mustard instead, Potato soup was OK, but it tasted like it came out of a can. One plus is It's definitely cheap but you get what you pay for unfortunately. read more

I've been going to The Greenery for a few years now even back when it was the previous owners. Now under new ownership for over a year now the taste & quality continues. I'm sure it has to do with the same ladies in the back kitchen making the meals too. The eatery has been updated with some new furniture, paint and murals. We are always greeted with a smile and a big thank you for coming in. Sometimes you can catch the owner, Guy behind the counter. I did meet his daughter Samantha today and she was very hospitable as well. We are fan favorites of the chicken salad cashew sandwich with chips and salsa. It is on a tasty squaw bread and it is a good portion sized sandwich. Yes its gone up in price a bit, not too much but its understandable. Another fave is the broccoli cheese soup. Mmm yum! You can earn points toward money off meals so be sure to sign up and build points. If you ever have a chance to stop in for lunch do it. They are now open on Saturdays too. read more

Came here on a weeknight for dinner and it was not busy. There are a lot of tables inside with a stage towards the front for live music. The space is light on decor with exception of the walls which had images of lion dancers and other things. Food is ordered at the front and brought to the table when ready. We got the Crispy Oyster Mushrooms and the Eggplant Tofu. The Crispy Oyster Mushrooms came in a portion size that was larger than we expected. They tasted like the Salt and Pepper Squid dish that my family gets from Chinese restaurants which we really like. However, the breading was heavy and a lot of the pieces at the bottom were oily. The Eggplant Tofu was solid. Both the Eggplant and tofu were cooked well and had a nice savory sauce. This dish came with rice on the side. Overall, giving Vegan District Asian Eatery a 4/5. The space is clean and spacious and the staff are nice. The flavors of the food are good. Would recommend to anyone looking for vegan Asian food and would come back to try other things on the menu.

Bluestone Lane is one of those places that checks off every single box in my book…read more There's nothing like a perfectly cured cup of espresso or tea while you're looking over a small menu that has well thought out and clean ingredients. I have to admit that the Aussie style breakfast is along with different twist on certain things that you wouldn't typically have for breakfast or initially caught my eye. I started off with the golden latte. It was a beautifully balanced turmeric latte with almond milk with a perfect amount of sweetness. Not only was it gut healing, but it's super warming on a chilly morning. While I was looking over the menu, I was between the breakfast burrito since everybody was ordering it or the soft scramble with chili oil. I landed on the soft scrambled chili crunch. It was served with a half avocado and rye toast the others in our party ordered pancakes, bacon, a chicken sandwich and a Yuzu drink. Everything came out in a timely manner and beautifully plated. I absolutely loved the soft scramble on Rye. It was a perfect serving size as well as hitting the spot for a not so traditional breakfast. As we're sitting there, I noticed everybody was ordering the lemon ricotta pancakes, so I could not resist and ordered some as well. I will say the most underwhelming part of that was the lemon ricotta pancakes due to the ratios for the pancake pancakes and lemon ricotta. Overall, my experience was spectacular. I cannot wait to go back to Bluestone Lane to try other menu items.

Unfortunately, the service started well, but after taking our order, we never saw our server again...as this is a small place, I'm going to assume there was some miscommunication among the staff. So, yes, I'll return again.

Apparently the tamales are the most popular but we found them to be a little dry. The cactus in green salsa one was particularly dry and unflavorful. At least the masa was a little less dry in the jalapeno with cheese. I think the cheese helped with that. We enjoyed the tacos much more. The corn tortilla was delicious and both fillings were so yummy! We would get these again and try more flavors but probably skip the tamales next time. Plenty of seating in the food court with outdoor shaded seating too.

I've been here on many occasions to get drinks, meals, or pastries from this place on a number of occasions. The servers here are nice. The place is wonderful. This place is so popular that the lines always stretch out to the door everyday. I also love their matcha aloha drinks. The blue spirulina in the drink makes it so lovely. It's so good. They even have a billboard by the restrooms that tells you info about their meals and other good things about Urth Caffe. One of the things posted on the bulletin board was that Urth Caffe had recently opened a new location in Qatar. I have an online friend who lives in Qatar, and I was telling her about Urth Caffe and this new location in Qatar. I also told her about how good the drinks and meals are. She told me that she was glad it's in her city and she will take the metro to this new location.

I also appreciated the complimentary tabbouleh salad, which was a nice touch. The owner was incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful, which made the experience even better. While this is currently more of a takeout establishment than a dine-in restaurant, I hope that changes in the future because the food certainly deserves it. My only concern was the temperature inside the restaurant. It was quite hot, and I worry that some of the food items displayed in the dining area could be affected, as many foods need to be kept in a cooler environment to maintain freshness and quality. Overall, I had a very positive experience and would definitely return.

They also have a small menu of entrees for those who want something different. I did order the chicken and beef steak kabob combo from this menu. During our visit, we noticed that they seemed to be understaffed--there was one woman handling all the operations from placing orders, collecting payment, and preparing food. Despite being the sole employee there, she was still attentive to us and made sure our food came out in a timely manner. I really enjoyed my food, especially the chicken kabob. It was extremely tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The beef kabob was just a bit overcooked but still good. What I really like is the harissa sauce here. I mixed some harissa into the hummus, and it created an incredibly yummy spicy hummus that I slathered onto every bite. So good!

Been eating here over 20 years. Yes the decor is not good, but there kitchen area is exceptionally clean. I HAVE NEVER HAD ONE PIECE OF WILTED SALAD IN 20 YEARS!! I honestly don't know how they do that. I have always eaten just the salads, either Tuna or Chicken add sunflower seeds and XTRA honey mustard. The dressing is a secret recipe and the best ever!! The tuna salad is unique and has carrots in it, and i have tried to duplicate at home, to no avail.... Bottom line is there food is fresh, their kitchen is clean (i have seen it), and yes they do need to update the place for sure, and until you "get to know" the owners, they are a bit stand offish. Once you know them, they are very sweet people. I just don't think they have great social skills and/or are burned out from doing this for 20 plus years!! They should probably let a more friendly person greet customers, and it is time to spend $40K and remodel the place. I think the food is so good that doing this would increase their business, as i see comments about the "appearance" that turned off several people. I can relate to your comments, for those of you who had issues with customer service. THERE SALADS ARE DIFFERENT, YET GOOD AND ALWAYS FRESH. I don't eat anything else, but my husband does and he loves it. He likes egg salad sandwich, the quesadilla, and a few others. I rated 5 star, because food. I would rate 3 star, because of the "first impression", but then again, i always take mine to go. TRY THEIR ICE TEA. ALL HERBAL AND AMAZING!!! read more

It was a nice surprise to find this place. The decor throw me off, because it didn't match their logo or the website design. The nice lady in the register greeted me. Their menu has a lot of nice items. I try the vegetable salad , because I love hummus. The salad had avocado, raw broccoli, raw white cauliflower, raw zucchini, mix lettuce, carrots, hummus and cheese. The salad comes with your choose of dressing, I asked for the balsamic vinegar. You get a big amount of hummus and it goes well with the raw broccoli and cauliflower. The salad was nice and it was pretty big so the price was pretty decent for the big amount of veggie a got, definitely will come back for more healthy food. read more

Had a fantastic time at The Greenery Natural Kitchen! The owner was super friendly, which added to the chill vibe. Now, let's talk food - the burrito, wraps, and salad were on point. And let's not forget that tortilla - soft and tasty, it was the real MVP. I went veggie, but there's something for everyone. Seriously, every bite was a flavor explosion. If you want good eats and a cool vibe, check out The Greenery Natural Kitchen. You won't regret it! read more
