Signature Dishes

One of Garden Woods' most iconic dishes is the Pan-Seared Salmon, served with a velvety leek and potato purée and a vibrant, tangy lemon-caper beurre blanc. The salmon is cooked to perfection, with a crispy skin and a tender, flaky interior that practically melts in your mouth.

Another standout is the Duck Confit, a classic French dish that Garden Woods elevates to new heights. The duck leg is slow-cooked until it's fall-off-the-bone tender, then crisped up and served with a rich, savory jus and a side of creamy, garlic-infused mashed potatoes.

Vegetarian and Vegan Offerings

While Garden Woods is known for its meat and seafood dishes, the restaurant also offers a variety of vegetarian and vegan options that are just as delicious. The Roasted Cauliflower Steak, for example, is a hearty and flavorful main course that's sure to satisfy even the most dedicated carnivores.

The restaurant's commitment to using the freshest, highest-quality ingredients ensures that even the simplest dishes, like the Heirloom Tomato Salad, are bursting with flavor. The salad is a celebration of the season's best produce, with ripe, juicy tomatoes, creamy burrata cheese, and a drizzle of tangy balsamic glaze.
