Carrot Express expands with 23rd location in the Grove

Carrot Express recently opened their 23rd location in Miami’s oldest neighborhood, Coconut Grove. Carrot Express currently has more than 20 locations in South Florida and three NYC outposts. The Coconut Grove eatery replaced the former Saffron at Grove space tucked away on 2982 Grand Ave., Miami, FL 33133. The healthy oasis offers indoor and outdoor seating along with take-out and delivery available through their app.

The nourishing hub features something for every kind of dietary restriction in addition to its vast and expansive menu including a wide range of salads, smoothies, bowls, wraps, fresh pressed juices and smoothies. Founded in 1993, owner Mario Laufer saw the lack of nutritious cuisine in Miami Beach and started serving a balance of delicious and healthy fare inside a gas station on Alton Road in South Beach. Carrot Express prides itself on using natural, high-quality ingredients and offering options for every diet. Continuing on his health-conscious journey, Laufer has been on a mission to create nutritious dishes with a flavorful twist. All locations also recently added a new Ciabatta Sandwiches.

Menu highlights include Carrot Express’ best-selling LIV Wrap ($17.99) – grilled chicken breast, avocado, quinoa, kale, jack cheese and basil pesto, Green Goddess Salad ($12.50) – baby arugula, baby spinach, kale, alfalfa, avocado, cucumber and toasted pumpkin seeds with cilantro lime dressing, soy ginger or miso ginger vinaigrette, Paradise Acai Bowl ($15.99) – organic Brazilian açaí topped with Mario’s homemade granola, strawberries, blueberries, banana, pineapple and raw coconut flakes, Veggie Burger ($16.99) – made in house with mushrooms, brown rice, onions, black beans and corn. topped with arugula, tomato, alfalfa, red onions and spicy mayo served on a toasted multigrain bun served with a side salad, tostones or sweet potato fries, Mario’s Favorite ($19.99) –  sauteed arugula, kale, spinach, toasted almonds, peas, golden raisins, quinoa, scallions and cilantro brown rice with chicken or tofu tossed in a homemade citrus sauce and their homemade Vegan Banana Bread ($6.95).
