About Us
What makes us different?
Gardenia’s Bistro is a mother-daughter-run, women-owned café rooted in Islamorada and built on care — for people, for ingredients, and for the environment that surrounds us.
We believe food should nourish, not harm. That’s why everything we serve is made with intentionally clean, non-toxic ingredients. We avoid seed oils, high-fructose corn syrup, artificial food coloring, and unnecessary additives. The majority of our ingredients are organic, locally sourced when possible, and chosen with regenerative practices in mind. Our team isn’t just staff — they’re family!
Sustainability isn’t a buzzword here — it’s a responsibility. We do not use single-use plastics, we prioritize environmentally friendly practices, and even our product concept reflects this commitment through recycled and thoughtfully sourced materials. Gardenia’s Bistro exists to offer food that feels good to eat, good to support, and good to come back to — a place where integrity, simplicity, and care are always on the menu!
