A Vegan Bowl at Fresko Grille in Huntsville AL

I heard there was a new Greek restaurant in Huntsville's Stovehouse complex that had some vegan foods. I had to check it out. Once there I was pleased to see a very nice variety of vegan items. Look what I found.

Fresko Grille lets people pick several items from the bar. Here's how I chose from the menu:

PICK ONE BASE: Basmati Rice
PICK ONE PROTEIN: Falafel
PICK ONE SALAD: tabouli
SPREAD: Cilantro Hummus, Red pepper hummus
PICK AS MANY AS YOU LIKE VEGGIES: Spiced Chickpeas, pickled turnips, olives, carrots
SAUCE: tahini

This was awesome! There was so much freshness and flavor! This tasted like real classic Greek food. It's been so long since I've had this type of food. I forgot how good this stuff is.

I was a bit concerned about the way the falafel was prepared. Is it deep fried with something nasty and gross like chicken or lamb? I don't know. I was very trusting when I ordered it. It looked like the meats are cooked on the grill, and I did not see any other deep fried foods. I enjoyed everything about this bowl and hope to enjoy another one very soon.

My first impression was pretty good. I didn't spot the place right off because it's in a corner of the building and the sign was not as visible as I expected. I was confused about where to go to order the food. The restaurant is just a long narrow hallway with a kitchen on one side. Everything was very clean and new. I love that. The service was friendly. The price was higher than I expected. I almost chose to leave when I saw the prices because I wasn't really that hungry, but I'm glad I didn't leave. The food was worth the price. Like I said, the food was awesome. I will be back as soon as I can!
