Since opening its doors just a few years back, Green Bar & Kitchen has become South Florida’s premier plant-based lunch place. It now has two Fort Lauderdale locations that are frequently packed to capacity. One is "Express," with a short selection of bowls, wraps, salads, soups and baked goods. The original is the ideal place to relax. The crisp white interior is highlighted by natural accents, and the lush outdoor patio is a serene setting for gluten-free avocado toast with sprouts, cashew-truffle dressing and pink peppercorns on flax-millet bread, or the bold Firecracker bowl with brown and black rice, scallion, bell pepper, cabbage, chickpeas, carrots and spicy dressing. The GBK Deluxe Burger is one of the best in the state, made with brown rice, quinoa, chickpeas, sunflower seeds, carrots, onions and seasoning. The patty is topped with lettuce and chipotle aioli. There are absolutely no animal products on the menu, and much of the menu is even gluten-free — including some pastries.
