Green Vegetarian Cuisine Alamo Quarry Market

Rating: 7/10 **Cauliflower Wings:** 9/10 **Orange Tofu:** 3/10 **Hostess Cupcake:** 7/10 **Peanut Butter Dream Cupcake:** 7/10 **Cauliflower Steak:** 6/10 **Charita Bowl:** 5/10 **Kale Salad Side:** 10/10 I really appreciate restaurants that focus on an environmentally sustainable and cruelty-free vegan/vegetarian lifestyle. Unfortunately, this place isn't completely vegan, though everything on the menu is vegetarian and there are some vegan options available. It was interesting to find out that both Green Vegetarian Cuisine and Earth Burger are owned by the same company. The menu offers a wide variety of options, which is a plus, although I wish breakfast were served all day. I would enjoy seeing more healthy choices, but I’m glad there are several to pick from. One downside is that the acoustics in the restaurant aren’t great; the space tends to echo quite a bit. Despite this, it’s not a bad little spot. The cauliflower wings (which I forgot to photograph) are fantastic—some of the best I’ve ever had. I highly recommend them if you're okay with deep-fried food, which isn’t the healthiest option. Sadly, the orange tofu was a letdown. The tofu, broccoli, and slaw were quite bland. I requested extra orange sauce, but it didn't improve the flavor—it just made the dish overly salty. At least it’s somewhat healthy, though I suspect the tofu is fried. Perhaps trying a different sauce on the side would enhance it. The Hostess cupcake was decent—not amazing, but comparable to a typical store-bought snack cake. I give credit for creating a convincing vegan baked good. Similarly, the peanut butter dream cupcake wasn’t bad either. While it wasn't extraordinary, the filling in the center was particularly enjoyable. The Charita Bowl is notable for the restaurant donating a few cents to charity for each bowl sold. I wish they would consider a different approach, like donating a percentage of all profits or offering the option to donate at checkout. The bowl has a variety of healthy ingredients, which is a plus, but unfortunately, it lacks flavor and is quite boring. I was somewhat curious about the cauliflower steak, but thankfully my expectations were low. It certainly doesn't resemble a steak at all; it’s just a thick slice of cauliflower that’s miso-flavored and roasted. It doesn't taste bad, but calling it a steak is misleading. It would make more sense as a smaller side dish or as a larger appetizer, cut into florets. As an entrée, however, it falls flat, especially since the dish lacks protein. On a positive note, the kale salad side was excellent!

I no longer eat meat and have been preparing a lot of vegetarian dishes at home. My husband thought it would be nice to take me to a vegetarian restaurant. The food was just average, and to be honest, I don’t think I'll be returning.

I’m quite particular about my brownies, and I can confidently say that this is the best brownie I’ve ever tasted.

I’ve been going here for years never had a bad experience food 10/10 staff 10/10 i adore this place and hopefully one day i can take my kids here too to enjoy this beautiful place i recommend the wow wrap it’s my favorite!!!!!!

I am not a vegetarian, but I will be back regardless. I got the falafel burrito with sweet potato fries, and it was so good! Service was friendly and quick.
