It looks pretty. I had the angus burger with garlic fries and a glass of Pinot Noir. The garlic fries were amazing and their house made ketchup was pretty good too. The burger was fine. I ate it as I was hungry. The meat was a bit too in the well done range for me. The red onion slices were cut a 1/2 inch thick and placed as a complete slab within the layers of the burger. I love raw red onions, but dang. The Pinot Noir was warm. People think red wine should be served at room temperature. This is a mistake. Red wine should be stored in the range of 55°F to 65°F. It was all fine, but for the prices, meh. Those garlic fries though, yum!

Big time overpriced place. Food is good but they make a bigger deal out of it than it is. This place is sold on the atmosphere. Lots of healthy girls in yoga pants eating salads sprinkled with micro greens. Not my cup of tea

A great place for lunch and brunch ! The flavors are so great here-truly healthy restaurant concept, yummy! They have variety of menu for everyone’s taste buds . Lots of vegan, vegetarian, paleo and keto options.Lots of seating inside and outside - beautiful patio seating area . The atmosphere makes it even more inviting. It is very relaxing and enjoyable.A management could be better, especially the general manager. Who did not come to our table to ask: how everything was, even after we have told him that we have had a bad experience with the food taste last time. The last time the food was not prepared the way we have ordered it. The management definitely lacks customer service. That is the reason for the three stars.

I really liked this place when I had brunch here last week. The prices were reasonable for the portions and the staff was super friendly/accommodating. You order before you sit much like Urth Cafe and they bring out the food to your table. I had the burger on their brunch menu and it was rather tasty but you probably need to cut it in half to eat properly--I just used the toothpick to hold it together after readjusting it to eat. The service is fast and the seating is abundant.

Great vegetarian and vegan options. Nice salad options. Love the Moroccan bowl. Vegan tacos and broccoli were great too. I also got the LA LA BOWL and added turfu. Probably cheaper to order with meat and substitute egg or turfu for vegetarian and vegan options because this made it a $20 bowl. Came with 3 sauces (!!!), which may be a bit too much, because I want to taste my veggies too. Veggies were excellent (not organic).

Bad overall experience. Not recommended. We arrived at 11:10, and still took over 25 minutes for our food to be served. I ordered the pesto chicken and garlic fries. Sandwich was cold and fries stale. I only ate half of the sandwich which tasted nothing like pesto. Then my guest noticed that they served me a chipotle chicken not pesto. My guests food was equally bad and they barely finished half of it. I probably should have told them but all three of us had to get back to work. Would never spent $30 per person for low quality food at Greenleaf again.

First time having brunch here and loved it. I normally stop by for dinner and get the spaghetti squash which I would recommend. I tried their breakfast hamburger with a fried egg and it was amazing. For something that quick I was not expecting much but was blown away. I would highly recommend this place for anytime of day.Also make sure you check out the dessert area for all the freshly made treats. The big o sells out quickly so if you one grab it fast.Cheers

They bring the food to your table but no service after that and even so not very friendly staff. Not rude, just no smile, no interaction at all beyond taking your order. The food is good but not a full meal like it used to be. I ordered the Knife & Fork burger which came with, well, nothing but the burger, no fries, no coleslaw, no fruit, nada. I dont eat a lot, usually I take a doggie bag because I cant finish a restaurant meal but here I needed to order a side to fill up. The vegan burger was good and I would order again. The sweet potato fries I ordered as a side were part cold and part warm so not fresh cooked.

My daughter took me here for lunch this week on July 19. I liked the food we both had salads. Only comment this is a bit pricier than the usual Salad places like Mendocino Farms, Bristol Farms or Tender Greens. Otherwise, the place is clean with option to eat outside. Nice ambiance and excellent service.

Green leaf chop shop. You are receiving a 2 star because of the food and it is clear management is lacking at this location. They also were out of half the things on the menu. Why even advertise them if they’re out of it?! Food is hit or miss and the fries were very soggy. I’m not sure if I can even come back here. Pricey and disappointing. I hope you revive this restaurant. It used to be a go to.
