😊 It’s 1 part art, 2 parts science to find you the best of what’s healthy, sustainable, and delicious. 

We apply the highest standards to find top restaurants and prepared food sources, using the same meticulous holistic nutrition criteria across the board.

We’ve been benchmarking and verifying restaurants for years—full-time since late 2018!

We closely evaluate the overall mission and philosophy, sourcing practices, menus, ingredients, and more to assess healthfulness and sustainability. 

We gather tips from health experts, chefs, food critics, our members, and trusted contacts. As a final step, we cross-reference ratings and reviews. While we often experience places firsthand, we’re not food critics—we set the standards, then assess and verify accordingly.

The top picks are curated just for you in our app. 

We understand that “healthy” looks unique for each individual. Because of that, we focus our curation on healthful, clean, sustainable whole foods that serve as a foundation for a wide range of eaters.

If you wish to find high-quality, healthful ingredients that are deliciously made, you’ve come to the right place!

P.S. We don’t begrudge the occasional artisan treat and encourage healthy balance in all things 😉 

Some of our favorite spots are whole food plant-based Vegetarian and/or Vegan spots!

You’ll love our good “Greens” filter in the app. This indicates a remarkable quality and variety of leafy and/or green vegetables. 

You can also search for Vegetarian or Vegan. Within our descriptions, we take care to mention places that are particularly suited for these preferences.

You enjoy the best of all worlds here – exquisite vegetables and high-quality sustainable fish and meats. 

Our healthy “Fish” filter is precise and shows only places that reliably have high-Omega-3, low-Mercury fish like Wild Salmon, Herring, Rainbow Trout, Sardines, and more.

Our wild “Meat” filter indicates you can reliably find pasture-raised meat like beef, lamb, chicken, etc. We will mention and recommend meat *only* when it’s pasture-raised and/or organic. 

We also verify places that use healthier fats and oils like EVOO, grass-fed butter, ghee and dairy, avocado oil, coconut oil, and more. 

Most of our recommended restaurants naturally include gluten-free and/or dairy-free options – or will readily accommodate preferences and modifications.

Also, our Gluten-free and/or Dairy-free filters can be used anytime you want to find explicitly named options for you on menus – or when you want to find a 100% gluten-free facility. We’ll clearly note this within the restaurant summary when applicable. 

For Celiac folks: We’ve heard differing opinions and observed varying levels of risk tolerance. We recommend you check or call ahead, even when a place is designated 100% gluten-free, as there’s always a chance for third-party vendor contamination, etc.

Please note – given our strict standards, our 100% gluten-free facility list is fairly short, but these are special spots. We’ve seen several reported “Celiac-safe” restaurants that include additives, preservatives, and/or other ingredients we wouldn’t normally recommend for anyone – let alone immune-sensitive individuals. You won’t find any such place in Healthy Anywhere.
