FOOD PHILOSOPHY
Tender Greens is a fine casual restaurant that combines our fine dining point of view and hospitality with a casual, quick dining atmosphere. Our restaurants serve fresh, healthy, chef-inspired, farmer's market sensible dishes at an affordable price in a relaxed environment. By working with small local farmers, ranchers, artisans, boutique wineries, breweries and coffee roasters, we are able to provide the best quality ingredients and products for our guests.

We believe there should be a conscious connection between the one who eats the food and the source of that sustenance. Our beef are raised on family farms the majority of their life in open pastures, and never given hormones or antibiotics ever.  Our chickens are California free-range, vegetarian fed, always antibiotic and hormone free.  Our seafood is sourced from the most responsible fisheries to protect the health of the species and our waterways. 

Our dedication to using only the finest ingredients extends not only to the raw products but to everything else we use in our recipes – cold pressed California olive oil, mustards, Sonoma vinegars, locally produced cheeses and wonderful nuts and ground spices all help bring you the best dishes we can make.  Likewise, we look for local boutique wineries, cool microbreweries and organic tea blenders to provide beverages that reflect the same commitment and care.

Breads are made fresh daily by artisan bakeries who, like us, are dedicated to using the finest ingredients available for their products.  Our desserts are baked at the restaurants every day.

Chefs

Each restaurant is led by an executive chef with a fine dining background and experience cooking at top notch restaurants. For example, San Diego’s Pete and Peter Balistreri worked at the Five Diamond Lodge at Torrey Pines. San Francisco Bay Area’s Chef Sean Canavan got his start at the Michelin Starred Bamberger Reiter Restaurant in his home country of Germany and was the executive chef at Bluestem Brassiere prior to joining us. Before coming to Tender Greens, West Hollywood’s Executive Chef Ali Ohta started her career cooking with Gordon Ramsay and delved into Japanese-Peruvian cuisine as part of the opening team at Nobu LA. Our chefs bring their unique backgrounds, culinary interests and personal flare to create a unique feel at each restaurant.
