The Garden Company is a delicious restaurant located in Rolland Square (previously Rummel Square). The Garden Company uses only quality ingredients for their farm-to-table concept. We suggest starting off with the Crispy Brussel Sprouts or their Baked Brie. You can't go wrong with any of their entrees, our favorites are the Cilantro Lime Shrimp Salad, Chicken Fried Steak, or their Lamb Burger. Also, if the weather is right request a table under the live oak tree out back, it's such a special outdoor space.
