This was my lunch today! I had a chicken quinoa bowl from VERTS Mediterranean Grill. It was quite good and I have some leftovers for lunch tomorrow too.
I took my food to go and brought it back to my office, but took the picture while I was still in the restaurant. While I didn’t eat inside, the space is open and airy, plus there is outdoor seating as well.
VERTS is similar to other places like b.good, where you get a bowl and decide what you want in it. They have a menu that you can choose from or you can build your own bowl.
I love this concept, because it’s a really healthy way to eat. You get a lot of vegetables, protein and a healthy carb.
The only off thing was the utensils. They only have forks — no knives or spoons. A bit odd, but maybe it’s an oversight that they’re working on correcting.
VERTS has greatly expanded in Boston over the past year and they now have three locations — this one on Boylston Street, one on Summer Street and one on Washington Street too. If there is one close to you, definitely check them out!
As I wrote about VERTS before, they are based out of Texas, with several locations in Austin, Dallas and a Houston location as well.
With all the devastating news we’re hearing about Hurricane Harvey, my heart goes out to everyone impacted. The stories are unimaginable. I hope that everyone in all their Texas locations are safe and weathering the storm.
*Updated 7/30/2020* It appears that VERTS may have closed and is possibly under new management.

Disclosure: Food was compliments of VERTS. Thank you!
Lisa, Where are you working that you took your food to go back to office? I’m at 501 Boylston! You must be close by, When VERTS first opened this location it was horrible. The staff was under trained and I tried it 3 times before I got a complete and edible lunch. I do like it better than the other new comer on the street – Dig Inn.
Hi Suzanne! Which one? I know a few. Send me an email or call. I’m working in the Prudential! Sorry to hear about your first few experiences. 🙁
