Greens and Lemons is a restaurant located in north McAllen, near Sam's. The atmosphere is modern and pleasant, making it a great spot for a day date. The menu offers a variety of dishes, and the restaurant does not overemphasize its healthy options.
The restaurant offers homemade hummus that is well-seasoned and not too oily. The fried cauliflower is a must-try, as it is crispy, firm, and dressed in buffalo sauce. The cucumber water and hibiscus tea are both fresh and not too sweet.
The green fish ceviche is a standout dish, with large chunks of cod that are soft and not rubbery. The sweetness of the green apple balances the sourness of the lime. The poke bowl is also a solid option, with fresh chunks of fish and a well-dressed base.
The Greek bowl with lamb could use some improvement, as the lamb was slightly dry. However, the flavors were still enjoyable.
The service was a bit slow, with a wait of around 15 minutes to order and 35 minutes for the food. The restaurant was surprisingly empty for a Saturday night at 7 pm.
The almond crusted chicken, which is actually made with almond flour, tasted like it was heated in a microwave. However, the falafel was fresh and tasty.
Overall, Greens and Lemons offers a solid dining experience with some standout dishes. Prices are reasonable, with the total bill for hummus, fried cauliflower, green fish ceviche, and poke bowl coming to $56.
