“ Local foods never fails to impress me. Modern and peaceful ambience, chill vibe with cool drinks and delicious food using farm fresh ingredients. Do not miss out on the crunchy chicken sandwich it’s the best chick sandwich I’ve had. Quinoa salad as a side is my favorite. Had the quinoa burger which is also a great option for vegans. I will obviously be back. ”

“ It was my first time visiting here with my fiance. We stopped by on a whim and were absolutely delighted with the food quality and pricing. For 33 we got a burger and a sandwich with 2 sides each. The food was very clean and fresh. I will definitely be keeping this spot in my back pocket! ”

“ I came to try the lunch, but surprisingly they had brunch at 1:30pm. So I got the steak and cheese omelette which tasted pretty good. One thing I could taste and be sure about is that the ingredients were fresh. Loved the smashed baked potatoes. Everything on my plate was delicious. The restaurant ambience was cool and nice. I recommend to try this place. ”

“ Local Foods never misses—but the gluten-free banh mi deserves a spotlight of its own. As someone with celiac and multiple food sensitivities, it’s rare to find something that feels indulgent, satisfying, and safe—and this sandwich checks every box. The textures are perfect, the flavors are bright and balanced, and the gluten-free bread holds up beautifully (a miracle in itself). Pair it with their kale salad or seasonal veggies, and it’s a dream lunch that feels both elevated and nourishing. The vibe is always easygoing, the staff is kind, and the ingredients are super fresh. Whether you’re gluten-free or not, Local Foods is one of those spots where everyone leaves happy. You can also follow my journey navigating gluten-free life with EoE over at @glutenfreewitheoe on Instagram for more great finds! ”

“ My first time here on 3/30/25 2:54pm. Cute atmosphere, Alive and a trail of bottles as you enter. They have a nice selection of non alcoholic and local brews too, cocktails on the go in the cooler for grabs, are only 22.00. They have grabible cold wine bottles and Moscato for your day drinking pleasure, " Got to love that". Great lighting, good looking staff, because of the lighting you can read the amazing menu offerings here "LOL" I'm 53 so...good lighting is helpful. It's also a very clean and organized operation from what I can see, I like the semi open kitchen concept at this location for presentation accountability. The only thing I had a issue with was how uncomfortable the booth I was sitting was. Hard seating cushion and a high back cushion that feels out of place for a average hight guy I am (5'11") with the coffees and fresh lemonades and teas. To the GF, V, N menu items this place is a high 10. Just like the sign says as you leave the Westiemer street side above the door, "GOOD VIBES ONLY" And you leave your mess at the table the amazing staff will clean up after you. So please tip these guys they work hard to give you the environment you enjoy so much on a daily. I am a real customer out at lunch on break from my own local restaurant and will be back soon. I recommend the HARVEST SALAD and your choice of protein... Rant over ,....... ”

“ Always have a great time when we visit. We get the crunchy chicken and posole soup. Can't go wrong! Pretzel bun really bring flavors together. 10/10. Chips are outstanding crispy fresh and hot when we got them. Posole was meaty, delicious, and filling and authentic flavors. ”

“ Reddit suggested this place since I was looking for a vegetarian sandwich and I gotta say I was overall not disappointed. They have a ton of options and everything is very yummy with good serving size too. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I ordered something called "crunchy" chicken sandwich thinking it would be fried chicken but it was not (hence why the word crunchy was in quotes) and I was disappointed although arguably that's completely my fault. Anyways I'd def come back and order other stuff! ”

“ I love coming here for lunch on a work day. When I went earlier this week I had to order two of the daily specials because they just sounded so delicious! The seasonal salad with salmon ended up being one of the best salads I've ever had. Usually I like their spin on a banh mi as well. Would highly recommend for a more elevated lunch experience! ”
