Green Burgers |
1022 Commonwealth Avenue Boston, MA 02215 United States +1 617 566 9663 http://grillezone.com/ |
A restaurant where the food is fast and the waste decomposes within 90 days? It sounds too good to be true, but the Grille Zone has accomplished just this and has set zero waste as a production goal. And they are well on their way, with energy efficient equipment and a partnership with the Green Restaurant Association. However, the focus on the environment does not detract from the food: the burgers are juicy, the fries are crispy, and the milkshakes are creamy. Leave with a full stomach and a clear conscience.
