There are also a ton of gluten-free options.

 

Bellagreen

Multiple Locations (Dallas and Plano)

This newer spot is an American bistro that boasts some of the best tomato soup out there. It’s fire-roasted tomato basil with a cheesy crust on top. Whether dining for brunch or dinner, you’d never really know that this is health food. Everything is so flavorful. From The Fig and Pig pizza to Brick Chicken and Paleo Spaghetti Squash Bolognese, everything is made fresh. Starters include Hi-Protein Hempenadas with hemp flour, cheeses, cilantro, raisins and 44 Farms angus beef. There are also tacos, wraps, sandwiches and salads.

 

HG Sply Co.

2008 Greenville Avenue

One of Dallas’ most popular rooftop bars, this Lower Greenville spot is also a go-to for a healthy meal. Share apps with friends like the spicy vegan queso, smoked carrot hummus, and roasted chicken wings. Or, build your own bowl with protein choices including grilled salmon, Mexican pulled pork, and quinoa “meatballs.” More favorite are the halibut almondine, tuna poke salad, and bison chili.
