Tree House Restaurant–Saint Louis, MO

Tree House is an all vegetarian restaurant on Grand Blvd in Saint Louis. They are just down the street from Lulu’s and several other good spots. I found this one on happycow and was excited to try their brunch menu.

I wanted some Chai, but they didn’t seem to have any. They did have dozens of coffee flavors and some adult beverages. My server was new, and he did a fantastic job.

I ordered the desayuno latino with vegan cheese. It is a black bean and vegetable stuffed masa cake with house made escabeche, malagueta, and chimichurri. I don’t know what half those things are, but it was very delicious. To make it vegan they swapped the eggs for tofu and topped them with some roja salsa. I liked the flavors of this dish a lot. The potatoes were a touch oily, but still very delicious. The masa cake was excellent.

I wasn’t planning on ordering a donut, but our server talked them up a ton. When he mentioned they had a key lime donut, I was sold. It was awesome. So fresh and tasty. The outside was lightly crispy with a sugar glaze on top. A little lime zest for some color. Inside was the key lime filling and it was one of the best I have ever had. It was like they took the pie and stuck it inside. So, so good.

I took a cinnamon roll to go. I was meeting a friend later, and I thought it would be a great treat. We both enjoyed them. So soft and sugary. Make sure to get a glass of almond milk to eat it with or chai.

I enjoyed my visit to Tree House and would definitely get the baked goods again.
