About Us

Connecting people looking for restaurants that use organic ingredients with the places that offer them

Find. Eat. Empower.™

We believe that people should be able to easily find restaurants that use organic ingredients when going out to eat.

It’s with that north star mission that the Organic Restaurants platform was created, and why it also supports the continuous evolution to always be thinking of our customers and how to empower them through our platform.

For our organic-minded consumers who use our platform to explore and find the right restaurants, to the restaurant marketing managers who share a responsibility for bringing in the right new customers to their restaurants, Organic Restaurants is here to support.

Methodology

What it takes to get listed as a restaurant

We list restaurants that use at least some organic ingredients. The more organic-based dishes a restaurant offers compared to the items on its menu, the higher the organic meter rating. Organic Restaurants has its own organic rating system that determines how organic a restaurant is. Fully organic restaurants, which are extremely challenging to do, would have a 100% organic meter, whereas a restaurant with only a few items on its menu would have a lower organic meter rating. The key is that we don’t want to discount restaurants that only use some organic ingredients since we feel it’s the beginning of their organic journey, and whether a restaurant has some or all organic ingredients on their menu, our organic meter helps communicate that in a clear way to people looking for those types of restaurants that are using organic ingredients. When viewing listings, you can see which restaurants have claimed & manage their listing.

As a viewer, besides being able to see restaurant listings that are claimed, you can also see restaurants that have a verified status. Verified status restaurants are listings that have taken the extra step to verify their listing and are able to display their own organic approach statement for you to see.

In addition to claimed and verified listings, you can also view sponsored listings. Sponsored organic restaurant listings are for restaurants that take a more active approach to promoting their restaurant listings. Sponsored listings also appear at the top of our location pages.
