Nature's Grill And Juice - Ventura

Good People taking the order were friendly, place was clean and well maintained. Bad I've had veggie quesadilla in many places, but I've never see whole pieces of broccoli and zucchini in a veggie quesadilla! I've never seen such big pieces in a salad, let alone a quesadilla. The cheese to veggie ratio was also dismal. The dressing was bland. My companion who ordered salad was also not impressed with it. At the ordering counter, they list suggested tip as 22%, then 20%, then 15% (or 18 I don't remember). Since when did suggested tip for a place that doesn't have a wait staff become 22%, and why would that be shown in descending order? I find that disingenuous.

This place used to be so great. What happened? This visit and the last visit the food was poor. Two of us ordered it was over $50. I do not feel that I received value for my money. Vegetarian Chili was just ok, way too many sliced black olives. Where were the veggies?? It was very salty. Caesar salad was just ok, lettuce was not that fresh. Chicken breast had zero flavor. Side of pita bread was $1.25 on the menu, I was charged $2.50. I guess I'm done coming here. There are many more new food options on Main Street now. I would recommend you try those out before coming here.

Not necessarily the most exciting place, but Nature's Grill does cater to vegetarians and vegans by having alternative proteins and other substitutes (like vegenaise). I got the Good Karma Burger which has a nice, filling tempeh patty. Fries would be nice you get chips and salsa. If you know Natural Cafe in SB/Goleta, it's essentially the same kind of restaurant (same owner back in the day, I think). Nice local beers on tap as well. I'd recommend overall, it's just some plant-based dishes may be a bit bland (like a plate of rice and veg and that's it lol).

I've loved eating at the Nature's Grill since it opened on Main St. I have always enjoyed the menu options for vegetarian and has always brought me back because of the fresh quality of the ingredients. I have noticed a huge change lately but I have dismissing it as a sign of the time. This Friday was my breaking point. I ordered a Natural Burger and added cheese and avocado. We also ordered extra condiments for each of us which added to the total around 10 dollars more than the listed price. Once we got our order none of the extras condiments except the avocado where there. My hamburger patty wasn't soy plus, the patty had several burnt grill marks that made it taste bad, the cheese was missing, the wheat bun tasted dry and old. The worse parts were the old avocado slices and the grilled onions that tasted like fermented or rotten. It was horrible ? I am completely done eating at this restaurant. I will not recommend to anyone.

Their Turkey Cobb salad is ?. Also love the Local Favorite. They make the best soups, I?ve never tried one I didn?t like! Their employees are so nice and the food is always fresh and ready on time.
