“The good was amazing! Lots of different flavors and options for meat eaters such as my husband, and vegetarian such as myself. I have some allergies to spices and they were very careful to check ingredients and make recommendations to assure that I had safe food. The sweet potato hummus sandwich and tuna wrap were fantastic, and my toddler loved the burger and fries!We will definitely be back next time we visit Portland!Vegetarian options: The roasted sweet potato hummus sandwich was amazing, and there were a few different delicious-sounding salads we did not try today. There is also an impossible burger that was very good.Dietary restrictions: They have a great selection of food for both meat eaters and vegetarians“

The Garden Café Cafe • $$
20 Milk St, Portland

“Heavy crockery, preheated, kept both the sandwich & soup nice and warm. The carrot-ginger soup was outstanding. The half sandwiches (Reuben, chicken) were delicious, albeit diminutive. Our server was very pleasant. The meal seemed to take a long time to come to the table, and since there were but two tables occupied in the restaurant, I suspect the burden lies on the kitchen and not on the server.“

We had one of the most enjoyable dinners we've had in quite some time- the service was impeccable, the food was absolutely delicious, classic Bistro fare, and the ambiance was incredibly lovely. We will be back soon!!Kid-friendliness: We dined with our 8 and 10 year old and both children had a wonderful experience!“

The online menu and ordering works really well. This place is always busy over lunch, so I try to plan a little early if I want to order from here.“
