Green Tomato Grill is located on 1419 N. Tustin St., Orange CA 92867 (located across from Toyota of Orange). The restaurant features Rice Bowls, Flatbread Melts, Wraps, Salads, Stews, a unique variety of snacks and fresh made Lemonade. Signature sauces along with locally farmed produce help make the flavors unique and absolutely delicious!
To say that there is something for everyone wouldn’t even begin to describe what Green Tomato Grill’s menu is all about. One of my favorites is Chile Verde Bowl ($9.75) which sees cilantro lime rice at its base, then topped with steak, corn, onion, shishito peppers, black beans, bell peppers, Cheddar Jack cheese (no cheese in pictures though), and chile verde sauce sauce. The steak is incredibly tender and flavorful with beautiful juicy flavors throughout.
The other item I got was the sweet potato fries which were unforgettable!
There is so much more on the menu which will take several more trips to get through all of it. The food is fresh, healthy, and most importantly, TASTY! I’m no fan of bland tasteless food but Green Tomato Grill has definitely figured out the right recipe.
