| - To be completely honest, I didn't love the food I had from Grabbagreen - it was almost a little too healthy! However, the gentleman who helped my friend and I last week was so wonderful, I wouldn't be able to give anything less than four stars. After mentioning our late night, he made some recommendations to get us back on our feet.
My friend and I both ordered the juice of the day, which had ginger, mint, lemon and, I think one other ingredient. It was not delicious, but I wasn't going for taste with this beverage - I was looking for a remedy! And I do feel the drink helped to deliver that.
We also both ordered the Gulf of Mexico salad, which has (copy/pasted directly from their website) "Avocado, Cayenne, Cucumber, Egg, Green Onion, Parsley, Red Onion, Shrimp, Spinach, Creamy Avocado Sauce." Healthy? Heck yes! Delicious? Mehhhh. The shrimp were nicely seasoned and everything was very fresh, but the dressing didn't have any kick and the onions were overpowering.
All of this said, I really enjoyed the Grabba chili, which was a last-minute add. It's vegan and made with (again, copy/pasting here) "Black Bean, Cilantro, Corn, Quinoa, Red Onion, Red Pepper, Tomato." It was unique and had a kick. I've actually been hoping to find a similar version back home in Philly!
I love the concept of Grabbagreen and I especially love that all of their nutritional info is readily available as well. Even though I wasn't crazy about some of my choices, I'd for sure give them another shot if I once again find myself in an area with Grabbagreen.
