New Spring Menu Debuted At Popular Main Line Eatery

One new dish is the "Impossible Vegan Burger," a totally plant-based burger made from ingredients such as wheat, coconut oil, and potatoes.

Spring is here despite the nor'easter storm that just slammed the greater Philadelphia region. And with spring comes a new seasonal menu from one of the Main Line's most popular dining spots.

Harvest Seasonal Grill and Wine Bar in Radnor debuted its spring menu on March 21, but chances are you didn't get out to try it as snow piled up in the area.

Some dishes on the menu are favorites that diners will be excited to see return and new dishes, including the "Impossible Vegan Burger," might become new go-to dishes.

The Impossible Burger is a 100 percent plant-based burger which is made from ingredients such as wheat, coconut oil, potatoes and heme, and features bibb lettuce, vegan cheddar cheese, tomato and red onion on a vegan burger roll, and served with a side salad and a pickle.

"The new Impossible Burger is a game-changer," Harvest Executive Chef Josh Short said. "It tastes so much like the traditional beef burger that it easily fools your brain. We can cook this burger to any desired temperature, and we have a feeling we're going to have serious burger lovers ordering this sandwich and coming back for more as often as they can."

Other new menu additions include three vegetarian bowls – a super grain bowl; chilled soba noodle bowl; and quinoa & harissa cauli-rice bowl, all of which have an option to add a protein for non-vegetarians looking for a healthy alternative.

New vegetarian dishes include a shaved heirloom carrot salad; sweet pea & avocado toast; garden vegetable farro soup; and smoked eggplant rollatini. Short said the new "Knife & Fork Organic Egg Salad" sandwich, which features farm-fresh organic eggs sourced from various local farms, will "knock your socks off."

While Harvest CEO Dave Magrogan and his team have a heavy focus on meat-free dishes, they still have an extensive offering of steak, seafood and poultry for the carnivorous crowd.

Customer favorites returning to the spring menu this season include the strawberry patch chicken salad; blackened mahi mahi fish tacos; smoked salmon flatbread; seared sea scallops; sesame chicken; local Bone-In duroc pork chop; and lemon thyme chicken. The Kung Pao Cauliflower "Wings" were also brought back after huge success with the restaurant's newest appetizer.

"Spring is the most exciting season for us in terms of ingredients," Short said. "There are so many ingredients that Mother Nature gifts us week to week, and we utilize a sizable variety of vegetables, fruits and herbs throughout our menu."

Harvest's brunch menu will also bring back the restaurant’s hugely popular carrot cake waffle, for those who would like to indulge in something on the sweeter side during the weekends.

Harvest's full spring menu is available online here.

Harvest Seasonal Grill and Wine Bar is located at 555 E. Lancaster Ave. in Radnor.
