Signature menu items include the "Santa Fe Crispy Chickin" sandwich, "Sweetheart Fries," and the "All Hail Kale" salad. All Veggie Grill locations offer a kid's menu. Lunch and dinner are served along with beer and wine selections. Veggie Grill currently has eight locations, seven in Southern Calif. and one in Portland with others scheduled to open in Seattle and Northern California."
