When you look for a place to eat healthy and declicous, check Café Evergreen in Nokomis just North of Venice.

Their personal philosophy is to be a leader in healthy foods and drinks that are fresh, great tasting and unique. They take things that people like and give them a healthier option while all the time maintaining quality and great taste… some examples – people love French fries, their healthy version is baked sweet potato fries.

Their food at the café is more vibrant and colorful because it is FRESH! When you use fresh ingredients there is always a taste difference!
