Such a cute place to eat! The food was ok but their vegan red velvet cupcakes really made the meal. Highly recommend getting that if you’re vegan or non vegan!

This is a restaurant I love very much. All menus are delicious. The burger is good, and the sandwiches and salads are also tasty. In particular, my favorite drink, blood orange lemonade, is also highly recommended.

I love local foods. If they built one closer to where I lived, I would move in. That being said took my sister and MIL for the first time this weekend. We got the chicken meatballs, BLT salad and breakfast plate. The food was fresh, perfectly cooked and delicious. The staff was so nice. The coffee was amazing. We will definitely be back

BLT in a salad style was great. I suggest not to put so much of dressing even though they put it on the side, since the salad itself already came with dressing mixed. I didn’t know, but tasted great.

Met up with some friends for lunch here and I am so excited to know that we have some locations in Houston because the meal, staff and atmosphere were great! The cashier was super friendly and explained the business and meal options to us. More than happy to answer any questions. The food is so fresh and light. Only tiny complaint we had is that the potato salad was a little sweet but besides that the meal was delicous! Highly recommend this place when you need a break from heavy meals, trying to find something a little more healthy or just want to enjoy the fresh air. They are also dog friendly at this location. Dogs were allowed inside and on the patio.

I’m a regular To-Go customer at Local Foods. Customer service and food great per usual, but yesterday two of my colleagues order the Seared Pepper Crusted Tuna and both dishes had a questionable greenish marble color on the Tuna. It did not look safe to eat and had to be thrown away.
