Healthy Restaurants in Encinitas

We track four restaurants with nutrition data in Encinitas: Goodonya Organic, Lazy Acres Natural Market, Nectarine Grove, and The Fish Shop. Lazy Acres Natural Market has by far the largest number of items on file, and most of its listed plates cluster in a similar range, around 440 to 520 calories with 35 to 48 grams of protein. The other three restaurants each have a handful of items, mostly bowls and plates built around a single protein source.

The highest-protein dish across all four Encinitas restaurants is Lazy Acres Natural Market's Chimichurri Beef & Egg Power Plate, at 490 calories for 48 grams of protein — 3 grams more than The Fish Shop's Grilled Salmon Bowl (520 calories, 45 grams), and for 30 fewer calories. Goodonya Organic's Grass-Fed Burger Bowl lists 470 calories for 38 grams of protein, and Nectarine Grove's Power Performance Bowl comes in at 450 calories for 35 grams.

When several menus in the same area list plates in a tight calorie band, protein grams are usually the more useful number to compare — two bowls at roughly the same calorie count can still differ by 10 grams of protein or more.
