Good Stock Restaurant Review - Updated

It’s still good! You all know I love Good Stock. It’s in my regular rotation of restaurants because it’s affordable, delicious and less than a five-minute walk from my apartment. I reviewed it in January and felt it needed a revisit because of the warmer weather and the addition of some exciting items. The soups are still great, as are the salads. The changes to report are the following:

• Good Stock recently added sandwiches to the menu, which I’m happy to report are très excellent. They use Bien Cuit sandwich bread, which is hearty and extremely filling.
• Entrée-size portions of salads are now available
• You can add avocado, egg or chicken to any salad
• You can now purchase their brownies in larger sizes

Back in January, I lauded Good Stock for its genius soup and salad concept since it’s not always easy to find veggie-forward meals that actually taste good. But I think it was a smart move to bring in the sandwich options, especially since the warmer months may not make people automatically inclined towards soup. I should point out that for the warmer months, they will have cold soups like gazpacho available. It’s more reason to love this place.

The details

Location: 31 Carmine Street, permanent spot in Urbanspace Vanderbilt and lunch pop-up at West Elm Market in DUMBO on Mondays and Thursdays, delivery via Try Caviar.

Menu: all-day

Service: lunch and dinner only

Price: $

Vibe: casual, dip in and out

Good For: quick sit-down meal by yourself or with another person, to-go or delivery

Standout Dishes: Tomato Soup, Coconut Chicken Soup, Maryland Crab Soup, Chicken Salad Sandwich, Grilled Cheese

Heads Up: I find a small soup and small salad plus the bread to be plenty for a meal. For men, larger versions of these should be enough. If you’re doing a sandwich and salad, purchase a large salad because this will probably be enough for 1.5-2 meals.

For IBS-ers, most of the soups contain onion and garlic. The salads will often contain low FODMAP-friendly ingredients.

Overall Rating: 3 (Great)

The wrap-up

I hope this Good Stock restaurant review was good! This remains an Eathority favorite because of the high-quality ingredients and tasty salad, soup, and sandwich options.
