Eating Out: Grass Root Organic Restaurant

Grass Root Organic Restaurant 

Thursday is Eric's & my "date night" and I have been wanting to check out this entirely vegan restaurant since before we moved to Florida.  Lucky for us, we bought the $10 for $20 Half Off Deals so it was a win-win!

Eric & his special "Immune Boost Water" ($1)

Water with added essential oils that smelled of ginger and did not separate from the water very well.  Not a bad price for a drink, but I'd stick with the regular water next time.  5/10

Eric got the "Everybody Loves Ramen" without the "hamm" ($9.50)

Besides the ramen noodles and broth, it was loaded with veggies.  It had a little bit of a spice to it, but did not linger.  Eric loved it and gives it an 8 out of 10 (8/10).  Although tasty, $9 ramen is still just ramen.  

Rating: 6/10.

I ate the special of the day: Tacos ($13)

These aren't your normal "tacos" as they were loaded with black bean hummus, squash, sheez (vegan cheese), lettuce, tomato, rice (and I'm sure there are some other things I am forgetting) all on a corn tortilla.  The tortilla wasn't my favorite, but I loved all the ingredients that made up this spicy meal.  Rating: 8.5/10 

Verdict:  Overall the restaurant was a great place to eat.  I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant and for eating dinner at 5:30pm on a Thursday, we were the only people there.  Menu items are a little pricey compared to your everyday restaurants, but not bad for a local, organic, vegan eatery.  I will definitely be going back.
