The Carrot, a healthy fleishig restaurant located in on Harding Avenue in Surfside was opened in February 2017 by Peggy and Abe Sreter who wanted to provide clean, healthy, delicious and fresh kosher meals at cost conscious prices. She wanted to provide an eatery that transitioned easily from a breakfast smoothie to dinner with friends.
At The Carrot they take pride in knowing their valued customers are enjoying food that is good for them, using the best and freshest ingredients to provide flavorful dishes that really excite their customers in an environment that makes them feel like part of the “Carrot family!”
When visiting The Carrot be sure to try the ever changing daily “Sara’s Soups” named after the family matriarch Sara who was a beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Sara is why the soup is so delicious at The Carrot with daily vegan varieties such as white bean soup or lentil kale. Sara’s recipes like her live on through The Carrot.
Signature dishes at The Carrot include the “Liv Wrap”; baked chicken breast, avocado, quinoa, kale, pesto and daiya vegan cheese on a whole wheat baked wrap or the widely popular Poke Bowl; a choice of ahi tuna or wild Alaskan salmon including brown rice or quinoa, arugula, avocado, carrot, cucumber, edamame, seaweed, ginger topped with spicy mayo, eel sauce and black sesame seeds. Finish off with a homemade “Energy Bunny”; delicious peanut butter energy balls.
Boasting an extensive smoothie and freshly squeezed juice menu boost yourself with a Green Dream; kale, spinach, pineapple, and green apple, or get into vacation mode with a Pina Colada smoothie, fresh pineapple juice, coconut milk, banana, honey and ice. With a wide variety of juices and smoothies to choose from there is definitely something for everyone.

At The Carrot you will see the love of fruits and veggies not only in the menu but also in the modern decor with clean lines and tropical accents. The Carrot is of course named after the wholesome carrot, it provides one with many of the essentials and can be found in large variety of dishes as well as blending well with other food. Yet its appearance has a real quirk to it that makes it stand out. The owners like to think of the restaurant as the same. Thus being THE Carrot!
