Great Full Gardens Midtown - Reno

This is a road trip favorite for me! I always like to hit 100% vegan places when I can, but this place has really good vegan options! There were so many vegan items on the menu! I loved the soba noodle salad with tofu and my mom was very pleased with her rice bowl with tofu as well. Wanted dessert but was too full…maybe next time!

I was in the mood for a pile of cheesiness, and this Awesome grilled cheese definitely sustained my cravings. They, well I believe make their cashew cheese that goes inside this sandwich. If you are ok with 2 out of 3 flavor checks for a regular grilled cheese: 1) cheesiness 2) bubbly cheese 3) stretchiness… this grilled cheese is for you. I loved the tomato and seasoned cashew cheese in this sandwich. I would definitely return. They have many vegan options on the menu, plus a nice baked good case when you go to the counter. Lovely space as well.

2.5/5 Great Full Gardens specializes in healthy dining and cuisine. That's why I believe that they excel at their bowls, salads, smoothies, etc; basically all the things I would consider health foods. The Soba Noodle salad with tofu is my favorite, very light and refreshing. Their beet latte with Oat milk is also super yummy. However, I have found that when you branch out to their burgers or burritos it gets less appetizing. I got the veganized pineapple teriyaki burger and was disappointed with it. The burger they use falls apart and the bun tastes bland. The vegan grilled cheese is more like toast with barely melted cheese on it. It is sooooo expensive for a half sandwhich that is not very tasty. Like they could grill the bread in oil rather than it be dry and cut the roof of my mouth and that way the cheese might actually melt. That's not to say that all of their sandwiches are bad, however I know what they are best at producing so I'll stick to that from now on...if someone else wants to go and is paying the bill lol. I've also noticed that the food is wayyyy better quality at night than morning so I suggest going for dinner. Updated from previous review on 2023-03-12

The only thing stopping this from being a five star review is they are omni. But they have so much vegan! Super friendly staff and delicious food. And so nice seeing vegan comfort food, not just a token salad or stir fry. I had the vegan Rueben, and loved it.

This is another one of my favorite restaurants. They're vegan options are extensive, and also great options for non vegans as well if you're going in mixed company. Fun funky art on the windows and walls. Friendly staff, clean and fun environment. Food is always quality!
