I was in the area and this looked like a pretty good/healthy spot. I tried their peanut based salad with chicken, chipotle corn chowder and sweet potato fries.the salad was descent and chicken pieces were dry but still an ok bowl. The the corn chowder was delicious, and just need a bit more salt, but a solid menu item. The sweet potato fries were definitely on point. I’d definitely come back again to try their other menu items, especially their fried green tomatoes.

Fast Healthy Food! Green Tomato Grill has a lot of healthy options. Chimichurri Bowl with steak, chickpea, onion, tomato, shishito pepper, mushroom, brown rice & chimichurri sauce. So colorful and flavorful. Their bowls are really good. I do feel like the size has gotten smaller than it used to be though. Everything is in to-go containers, even when dining in. I used to love the presentation when they had regular bowls. It complimented the cute decor. And, of course, I always have to order one of my favorites…Crispy Chickpeas! So addictive! Love how crunchy it is! It’s so good! Definitely one of my go-to restaurants in Brea!

Cute little healthy restaurant inside a retail plaza that used to have a Vons before it closed down. This place is somewhat of a gem as not many around like this when you are craving a clean organic grain bowl or paleo/keto entree made of fresh ingredients! They have poke bowls, build your own bowls, and have many diet specific options. If you're Paleo or Keto enthusiasts. I got the chimichurri bowl and opted for salmon as my protein since they use wild salmon. Too many places use farmed salmon, so gotta ask if that's important to you. They confirmed it. I was a first customer, so the cashier offered me a free drink, which I got the mint lemonade. It tasted pretty godo at first, but it seems like they used a nonsugar sweetener, and it left an odd aftertaste. It tasted extra sweet but in an odd way. I watered it down, but it was still too sweet or weird tasting. It's a popular drink, but I wasn't a fan. I have one criticism. I got cilantro brown rice in my bowl, but it just tasted like plain brown rice?! I didn't want to make a fuss, so I kept it as is. Another thing is there were dried up rice grains in my portion of rice. The kind of dry that occurs when you have rice exposed to open air for a certain amount of time and it loses all moisture. These grains got dehydrated. They were in my bowl. I had to spit them out. I get it. It was the end of the evening close to closing time, but it's still not okay. I can be understanding and still share what happened. I would have said something, but it was nearing closing time. I should have. Anyway, i still like the place and will return. I hope that doesn't happen again, and if so, I'll nicely notify them and get it corrected. The place has a really cute bench patio for diners. I sat outside. They had hanging mini lights that created a relaxing, quiet mood. I liked it and will def come back! They have many green and superfood options. Vegan and vegetarian friendly.

This is probably my favorite restaurant in my area- North Orange County. Their food is healthy and fresh and they have a full gluten free menu. I frequently eat in and the staff is friendly, the restaurant is clean and inviting and it has a very cool vibe. Also, if I am looking for a treat, the gluten free muffins and desserts are the best I have ever had.

Have been here several times, and their food is amazing. Recently, we got a diary and gluten-free salad for a friend, and it was really good. Love the backyard seating, just like home.

Food was pretty good--I liked the fried green tomatoes and the cauliflower bites, but the salad did not have enough dressing. I should've asked for dressing on the side! Anyway I wasn't too hungry when I stopped by so didn't get any of the main dishes. I'll make sure to try those in the future.

Ordered a grilled beef Greek wrap. A pleasant surprise that it was! Fresh veggies and tender meat. I really liked it. Note that is not the typical Mediterranean flavor, this is something different. But I wasn’t expecting to be so. Healthy food!!

We went for breakfast mainly because two of my kids are vegan and looks like they have some great options. Most of the items can be ordered without protein and you can then pick a vegan or meat option. The staff were super friendly and explained everything to us. I ended up getting the salmon tacos (non vegan of course) and they were excellent. We also got the blueberry waffles with maple agave and their vegan burger. Oh...the sweet potato fries were perfectly crisp and yummy. If you are a mixed vegan/vegetarian/meat eating family, this is a great choice with all the options!

This place is great. Very fresh and tasty, polite and courteous staff. Clean and organized. Good parking. I had the teriyaki bowl which was really good topped with the tofu which was absolutely terrible - tasted like cardboard. Ah well, at least they had a great variety of sauces to cover it up.

My company has an office down the street from here and I've been to the one in Tustin but wasn't aware of this location. I was in the area around breakfast time looking for something and stopped by. It was a few weeks ago, and since then I have made excuses to go to the office so I can come by here and get the oatmeal! It's the best I've ever had, the fruit with the oat milk, it's so delicious!

They have a new breakfast special and it's awesome because it's so close to home! I will be able to try something different in the breakfast menu. They're super nice bad attentive every time we come.

I’ve been coming here daily for months now and never have I been disappointed. Their bowls are perfectly balanced; fair and healthy amount of complex carbs, protein is rich, veggies and legumes are on point!! without sacrificing flavor!!! The staff is always friendly and they’ll greet you kindly. They also serve quite fast. I am very pleased with the amount of color their bowls have and how delicate they’re with texture and seasoning. Also, super relaxing to sit outside in the patio by the fountain. I recommend their teas, too. They’ve got a fair amt of caffeine lol

This restaurant is really good and often is my go-to spot for quick and fulfilling meals. I usually go for the teriyaki bowl or the miso bowl with salmon and avocado. The food is on the pricier end, but definitely worth it. I also enjoy the sweet potato fries as a side order if you wanted additional food.

First time visit, a couple of days ago, and the food was delicious. The staff was also very polite and respectful. Definitely recommend this place for those who are Plant-based/ vegans, because of the menu options available.

The food here is fresh and delicious. I don't really like broccoli but the broccoli on my sandwich was actually good. Great choice for a healthy and tasty meal.

Fresh, light, and healthy food. Great taste profiles. Friendly staff. Be sure to try the fried green tomato side with your meal; it's tasty and perfect to share with the table.
