Health Food Restaurants near Darien, CT

“We waited with anticipation when Barvida opened in Darien, about a block from our office, and then found that they're friendly, vegan, and fair-minded. Their lunch time food is a favorite.“

“The food here is so delicious. We got the breakfast cookie while we waited (so good) the peach iced tea was refreshing. We got the chicken and veggie soup, the chicken salad sandwich, the taco salad and the buffalo chicken salad. Everything was 10/10. There is also a cute area to sit in the back and eat or wait for your food. Highly recommend Greens on the Go.“

“My kids and I love Playa!!! We always get the Nutella bowl- sometimes with extra granola. Yum! It’s just a tad pricey!

Vegetarian options: Fruits a plenty

Parking: Big parking lot in back. Some spots in front on street.

Kid-friendliness: Kids love it! Lots of options.“

“One thing I’ve realized is that the ratings on a lot of Sweetgreen locations are unfairly low. There are always people complaining about not getting enough meat, not getting their orders on time, etc. In reality they just don’t happen that often. This location is perfectly fine. Just got a harvest bowl and it’s as delicious as every other location.“

“Barvida is a great spot for high-quality, healthy shakes. You can really taste the freshness in every drink, and it’s clear they use quality ingredients. The shakes are well-balanced, filling, and don’t feel overly sweet or artificial like a lot of places.

If you’re looking for a healthy option that still tastes amazing, Barvida is definitely worth checking out. Consistent quality, great flavors, and a place you can feel good about going back to.“

“Love this place. Great value and portion size. Best compared to other salad places in town (ahem… down the street). Staff are friendly and fast. Food is fresh and love the seasonal variations. Highly recommend, hands down best salad places in town so hit it up!“

“I am publicly confessing that I am addicted to Field Trip’s Crispy Cuts Pork Rinds, and have no desire for an intervention. As far as I’m concerned, this is a guilt-free snack! I lean toward spicy Sweet Chipotle, but would definitely not turn my back on Island Barbecue. We all owe ourselves a treat now and then. When you are ready, get a bag of Crispy Cuts Pork Rinds. You’ll thank me, and I can certainly use the good vibes. I give these crispy treats ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of five.“

“My family and I were visiting family in Norwalk and were referred to Greens on the Go in New Canaan. We had an absolutely wonderful experience! The food was delicious. I personally enjoyed the Spring Bowl with Tofu, which was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. I also tried the Pitaya Island and it was an absolute must-try – such a delightful treat! The owner, Alyssa, is very friendly and was an absolute pleasure to meet. Her warm hospitality made our visit even more special. If you're in the area, Greens on the Go is definitely worth a visit. We will be back for sure!“

“Great little sandwich counter. Was looking for a quick sandwich stopped and got an amazing Chicken Salad with Tomato, Lettuce, Cheese and Olives. All fresh. The chicken salad had some amazing flavor. Perfect amount of mayonnaise. Staff was very friendly and had a homestyle kitchen vibe.“

“I came here a lot before Covid and then it got out of my restaurant rotation.

Came here today and it’s just as wonderful as it used to be. The Malibu chicken salad was ample and delicious.
Susan was a delight! Her good mood is contagious!“
