Rethink Food + Drink

What’s Clean

Approximately 75-80% of all ingredients at Rethink Food + Drink are either certified organic or organically grown. The sourdough bread is local, as is much of their produce. Depending on the season, some produce items may not be organic, ask for more specifics. The majority of their offerings are house-made, including sauces and baked treats. The nut mylks are organic but are store-bought. At the time of this review, 99% of everything served is plant-based with a few gluten-free options available as well.

What’s Served

Rethink Food + Drink serves smoothies, shots, coffee & tea, as well as cold-pressed organic juice. Additionally, made-to-order menu items include Acai Bowls, Toasts, Salads, and Wraps. My faves are the weekly special, which is typically a combination of a soup/green/grain bowl, and the Muesli Bowl. If you’re in a hurry, visit the Grab & Go section where you’ll find ready-made salads, wraps, and juice.

What I Ordered

For this review, I’ve chosen the Signature Acai Bowl, and one of the weekly specials, the Lentil Dahl Soup & Grain Bowl. The Lentil Dahl Soup was soothing and super flavorful with a spiciness that captured my attention but didn’t overpower the dish. Savory chunks of veggies along with moist couscous paired nicely with the soup. The topping of scrumptious Cucumber Raita over drizzles of Cashew Creme Sauce was my favorite part of this amazing bowl of yum. The Signature Acai Bowl is a beautiful presentation consisting of freshly cut Seasonal Fruit, Banana, Granola, Cocoa Nibs, Coconut, and Goji Berries. The toppings are always fresh and sliced into small pieces making for a delicious combination of goodness. If I could change anything about this bowl, it would be to blend the organic acai to order instead of using the scooped ready-made variety that is hefty in sugar.

The Vibe

The decor is modern with a touch of farmhouse. Several tables and high tops are available inside, as well as a few tables located outside.  The staff is knowledgeable and friendly and their WIFI signal is strong.

The Takeaway

Rethink Food + Drink is the closest clean eating restaurant to my home. Therefore I visit quite often…like almost every day when I’m in town, lucky me!! The weekly specials never cease to amaze me, both in uniqueness and taste, sooo delish. Likewise, the quality and complexity of the recipes and ingredients take plant-based eating to another level. There’s nothing ordinary or mundane about anything served at the Rethink Food + Drink.
