So I am apparently on a review-writing binge, but I have traveled extensively across the U.S. and…read morewanted to circle back and compliment some of the places that were genuinely lovely and memorable. Ginger's Garden Cafe is absolutely one of them! I LOVE ginger, so naturally I had to try the orange carrot ginger drink, and it was amazing--fresh, bright, and exactly the kind of pick-me-up I wanted. It's surprisingly hard to find a really good beet salad these days, and theirs was exceptional. It was also a LOT of food, so I happily had some to take away. I also tried the falafel salad, and the falafels were delicious and juicy, with an amazing dressing and feta that brought everything together. What I especially loved was how I felt afterward. Everything tasted fresh and nourishing, and I walked away feeling energized rather than sluggish or weighed down like you can after eating at so many places. It was just a refreshing, guilt-free, feel-good meal. They have a really great menu with so many things I'd still like to try. Honestly, I wish places like this were chains instead of all the fast-food restaurants everywhere--I'd happily eat this way while traveling! Highly recommend giving Ginger's Garden Cafe a try. I just wanted to come back and say thank you for such a positive experience. I hope you stay open for a very long time--and maybe even grow into many more locations! Stay Fresh!

Service is really friendly, and answered any questions I had - it being my first time there. I really appreciate it when places go out of their way to make everything fresh.

Food selection is 3 stars if you are vegan, zero stars if you're looking for protein. Serve yourself humbly buffet style but the staff are super peaceful and friendly. They close early so getting there by 5:15 pm is recommended so you can check out the temple upstairs after dinner.

Understand and accept a) that it's a vegetarian buffet, b) you can get a completely balanced meal with all the protein and nutrients you need, and c) you don't have to be Hare Krishna to enjoy their buffet. We showed up there at about 5 PM. The people working there were very nice and welcoming. I recommend the halvah--which is a wheat-based dessert dish. It was sweet and delicious with a pleasant thick texture (like clumpier cream-of-wheat). Everything in their salad bar looked so fresh, and they put out some honeydew that they told me they grew there. I thought I'd give it a try, though I dislike honeydew in general--but the color was so vibrant and it looked juicy. It was unlike any honeydew I've ever tasted; the grocery store honeydew is trash compared to what they were serving. It literally tasted like honey. It was a small but varied buffet. The mung bean soup was bright and tangy--so good. There was something that was either pan-fried yucca or sweet potato; whatever it was was starchy but kind of sweet. I kept going back to the halvah. Outside there were llamas, peacocks, trees, parrots, a koi pond. The people working there welcomed us to walk around, hang out, visit their service (which started at 6, but we declined), to do whatever we wanted to relax. It was a great way to decompress and eat a healthy, nutritious meal while traveling.

Had a lemon spicy chicken, dumpling soup and some crispy vegetable rolls and they were all fantastic. Didn't leave hungry and it was all a fair price for what I ordered.

Came here on a weekday afternoon and it was fairly busy. The menu was very large and we ended up…read moregetting the egg rolls, teriyaki chicken vermicelli and the house special pho. The pho broth was solid and tasted really good -- there was more tofu than I would have liked, but the other meat was fine though I wasn't a fan of the "fish balls". Tasted almost too real? The teriyaki chicken was pretty good - sauce and all and the vermicelli was refreshing. But the egg rolls weren't very good and had little flavor. You order and pay at the counter and then they bring your food to your number. There are many booths and tables though the lighting was a bit dim. Overall, a solid vegan place with many options and I'd come back the next time I was in town especially since there aren't many solely vegan places in the area.

They had about 12 beers on tap from their brewery, as well as hard ciders on tap, red and white wines, and a whole cocktail and spirits menu. Also craft sodas and juices.

And surprisingly, their kid's meals are big enough for an adult. The food comes out really quick and they don't skimp on the fries (owned by one of the original owners of 5 guys). The staff is really nice and they are willing to accommodate any reasonable requests. The restaurant itself is more modern and clean. There is a lot of seating, but this place is usually filled to the brim, so finding a place to sit can be a challenge during the lunch and dinner rush. It's also open on Sunday's, which is uncommon here in Utah. My favorite item on the menu, and I've literally tried them all, is a Cripsy avo sandwich with a shocker fillet added on! So good!

We came because we wanted gourmet burgers. Turns out that their two burgers were bison burger. No thanks. No matter. My friend and I had the Traditional Navajo Taco(s) and his wife had the Sheep's Steak Salad. Everything was delicious. I put the "s" in parentheses because the menu is in plural but it really is just one taco. The Navajo Taco description from their website: Our Navajo tacos are a true taste of tradition--crispy, fluffy fry bread tacos topped with flavorful ingredients, served alongside cilantro-lime rice and pinto beans. Whether you're searching for Indian tacos near you, Navajo food, or the best tacos in Provo, this dish hits the spot. Find out why so many call this the top Navajo taco at one of the most authentic Navajo restaurants around. Also known as Navaho tacos, it's a must-try comfort food. It was excellent. The fry bread was nice and spongy and the toppings were flavorful. The refried beans and the rice were also excellent. Not just good, but excellent. She really enjoyed her steak salad as well. All in all a really good meal, didn't even miss the gourmet burgers. So yes, you better make a reservation. And this was a Thursday night. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

When her shift ended, Addie took over. She was attentive and answered all our questions. I had the Lamb Nawabi which was cooked with cashews,cream,fenugreek leaves, a touch of yogurt and herbs. The sauce was delicious and the lamb was tender. My husband had the Tadka Chef's Special listed for kabob lovers with tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, lamb boti kabob and shrimp tandoori. The meat was flavorful. My husband probably would have cooked the lamb less but overall delicious! Of course all meals need Naan bread and we had the garlic flavored one which was the perfect accompaniment to our meal. I read over the previous reviews and wanted to verify that they do indeed charge a credit card fee. To us, this seems logical since they are charged a fee, much like a gas station charges more for credit. They also do charge for another bowl of rice but the rice portion was more than adequate for our dishes. This is definitely a restaurant worthy of repeat visits!
