The first time I ate at Home Grown I was not at all happy. The food was tasteless and over-priced (I ate some vegan dishes). However, whenever I go here for brunch I am always delightfully surprised by the delicious vegan omelettes they make. This is my new favorite breakfast restaurant- where else can I get a vegan omelette in Newark? :) I don't know how the good breakfast dishes did not translate to my dinner plate there; maybe the chef was different.

I had the vegetarian burger with cheddar cheese and the chopped salad along with a $2 margarita. The food was good and my server was nice.

They handled my eating style beautifully! I eat no gluten/or grains of any kind, no dairy, no nightshades ( tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant etc). No big deal, they substituted what I could eat! And it was very good!

Thank you! It has 15 different ingredients, but the base is a mix of brown rice, garbanzo beans and oats. So glad you love it! -Sasha Aber, Owner.

Ashley - So glad that you liked them. They are a combination of silk and hard tofu, chickpeas, vegetable stock, garlic and other seasonings. Very happy that you had a great experience. Thanks! - Sasha Aber, Owner Jodi - Thank you for reaching out. We are always on the look out for new vegan cheese. Violife has nuts in it, and we are staying away from that allergen in vegan cheese, and when Follow your Heart melts, it gets very oily and is bright orange and play dough looking. We will continue our search, and appreciate how much you care. - Sasha Aber, Owner

Hi. The kitchen closes when the restaurant closes - all restaurants in Delaware must have food available if alcohol is, however, we have a late night menu that we offer as the night progresses. Our full dinner menu is available until 11PM Monday - Saturday and until 10PM on sunday.

Blowie & the Hootfish. They're a Hootie & the Blowfish cover band. Pretty stellar
