Honestly, I have been trying to put into words how phenomenal this place is so let me begin by sharing what I felt upon entering: great energy. I walked into Good Foods and the energy was so powerful and high my day was immediately transformed upon just walking through the door. I was greeted with a warm smile by the Owner, I learned that later. I observed immediately shelves of Mason jars for purchase and these jars contained all the healthy powders humans need to live better quality lives: spirulina, chlorellla, bladderdack..just to name a few! There was the wall to the left that had beautifully colored printed photos of plants...any plant you can name on the wall, Crystals, an alkaline machine because we can purchase alkaline straight from the store and the menu had the standard vegan burger options, but my burger was not standard. Upon ordering, I was able to request Ezekiel bread and those with sensitives will understand my appreciation! I ordered the veggie burger, toasted Ezekiel bread and it came with fresh spinach, avocado, microbes, grilled onions and a vegan sauce that made my eyes water....I hummed and chewed the entire time. To illustrate how fantastic the burger was, my 83rd old grandmother who turns her nose up at vegan anything, who waited in the car for her trip to KFC for wings, decided to take a bite and ate half: so I will return Monday! My grandmother said ,"I want one." Finally, the owner left her seat for a moment, looked at me as I grabbed my detox powder and she began to confirm everything I had been going through all from a hello. For those who are spiritual and believe in energy clearing and Chakra balancing, Good Foods has that next door! I hope that you do not take my word, but that you drive, walk or bike to see this diamond right on the southside! It made my heart so proud and with all of the challenges going on in the world and our city...we could all use a...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThe food was absolutely delicious!! I got the large mushroom quesadilla and my partner got the veggie burger; we also got the No More Blues smoothie to share. The food was piping hot when it got to our table and the veggie burger had sooo many toppings! Seasoned tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, onions, cheese, mustard and that was just what I saw! The veggie burger doesn't do the thing of pretending to be meat. It was its own thing and it was delicious! The mushroom quesadilla was so well seasoned! The mushrooms were a good texture and it had peppers, onions, and spinach in it as well. The cheesy (not sure if it was vegan cheese) was so meaty and gooey; it was delicious. Both meals came with fried which are probably the best fries I have ever had. The right thickness and a good amount of crispy and so well seasoned! (For me) there was just the right amount of pepper (which is a lot). The fries didn't need any sauce but also went well with the BBQ sauce I was given. The smoothie had apples, blueberries, and ginseng in it and it was delicious. They also had a ton of loose leaf ingredients that you can use as tea. The atmosphere was so nice! Although the place only had a few tables, they also had some really gorgeous artwork around. There was music playing and other patreons where having a good time and joking around. The service was great as well. The chef who made the food also delivered it to our table and was so friendly and inviting; they checked in to see how the food was but did not hover. Would definitely...
