A Moveable Feast | Health Food Restaurant | Supplements & Herbs Store — Restaurant in Hedwig Village

I came in for an early lunch today. It was very complicated to order my smoothie. I asked if they had any plant-based protein to which they said no. Then I saw in another smoothie on the menu that there was sonic protein and they said “it’s not plant-based... it’s made from a bean.” After them asking me to walk across the store to personally check the ingredients of the protein, they also told me they have hemp protein. I don’t think they know what plant-based means which is a little concerning for a health food operation. I ordered “for here” the Tabuleh and avocado sandwich with no cheese and a smoothie. The smoothie was brought to me in a single use plastic cup with lid on it which I thought was very wasteful and unnecessary. The sandwich had very little avocado on it (seemed like less than 1/4) and at about $10, I think was a terrible value. The sandwich was served with basic corn tortilla chips and no salsa, and when I asked for salsa, the only person who was nearby to help me was in the middle of sweeping or something. Again they opted to package the salsa in a single use plastic container and they would not give me the option of just having some in a bowl or something. Also very wasteful was the fully cooked meals on display as you walk in. Some fish and ravioli dish. Super wasteful and for a store that seems to express broke mom & pop shop vibes, they probably would be better served by not intentionally wasting food. Aside from that while sitting and eating my meal nobody ever checked on me or seemed to care that I was there. I used to love this place when I was a kid and always ordered this same meal but it was not nearly as good as it used to be. Super bummed going into a childhood favorite and catching bad vibes. My guess is they have a loyal customer base who is just used to the way things are and don’t mind the excessive pricing and wastefulness. I hope...

A Moveable Feast Cafe & Health Food Store is my favorite restaurant in Houston, and the one that I eat at the most. What do I love about them:

Really nice people who work there. Many for years. Please help support these wonderful people.

A large variety of food for whatever mood you are in or dietary limitations, served inexpensively and quickly, particularly given the quality of the food.

Some of my faves included the vegetarian quesadillas, the enchiladas, the lunch sandwich-soup-salad combo, and the hamburger, and various vegetable-focused dishes when I am looking to eat more of them. I also like their juice options. I like the Mexican food a lot when I am in the mood for Mexican food, but I want it a little healthier than most places. Their black beans are delicious, and they have brown rice as an option. Their guacamole and salsas are delicious.

My favorite patio dining in town. Their garden is an inspiration, and I have seen hummingbirds in it. I've purchased similar plants for my garden after seeing them thrive in theirs.

Desserts. They have them. I usually do not drink wine or beer there but they have a good selection at decent prices.

Terrific to-go. They pack the food real well, and it keeps.

The Health Food Store side is great. One half to the right is the restaurant. One half to the left as you walk in is the Health Food Store. I have discovered many products I did not know about that have been helpful. They have gifts, vitamins, food products, body care, coffee, tea, herbs, books--just a lot of things thoughtfully chosen.

In sum, I wish A Moveable Feast type restaurants were everywhere, and that it were easier to find nourishing, quick, affordable food in more places. Please give them a try and explore the menu to figure out your favorites too.

Love you guys! Thanks for making Houston more better in your...

Stopped in and ordered from the vegan options. Vegan burrito and vegan burger. When the items arrived they were visually appealing. However, the burger was tasteless. I don’t think the staff knew how to cook a beyond burger. A healthy douse of amino acids, ketchup, salt, pepper made it somewhat edible.

Now the burrito… the use of chili powder was about the only flavor in the meal. Yes, I got curious to take a bite. Some other flavors like onion, garlic or even salt would have waken up the dish. Other than chili, it was pretty tasteless.

Think it’s time for training the kitchen staff on cooking a proper meal. The idea is there, but unfortunately the flavor is very bland and non-existent.

Service very friendly.

Atmosphere was pretty dead when we arrived, but then again, it is later in the day on a weekend.

Props for trying for sure! Add some or any flavor to the foods and the menu could be amazing.

For the price of our meal $42 before tip… it was subpar at best. Other eateries are much better for the same vegan options at a...
