How about vegetarian restaurants?
I'm not talking about the quiche and salad places, or the counters at the
health food stores, but places that serve sit-down vegetarian dinners among
their selections. There are restaurant guides, but they are often incorrect
and out of date.
Let's get together a list!
I'll start out with a few:
key: 0-9 food quality
V - "pure" veggie
N - "natural" food, restaurant serves meat dishes too.
R - regular restaurant with a large vegetarian menu.
$ cheap (0-$6), $$ moderate ($6-$15), $$$ expensive ($15-)
*Portland, OR
Food Goddess SW Morrison & 13th 5 V $
Old Wives Tales E. Burnside & 13th 6 N $$
Zorba the Buddha (Rajneesh) SW Park and Salmon 4 V $$
La Casa De Rios SE Hawthorne & 35th 5 R $
*Eugene, OR
Mother's Home Fried Truck Stop (west of UO) 5 N $
*Seattle, WA
Sunlight Cafe 6034 Roosevelt (near UW) ? N ?
*San Francisco, CA
Green's Fort Mason 9 V $$
Dipti Nivas Church & Market 6 V $
Cafe Jaqueline (Souffle!!!) North Beach? 9 R $$
*NYC
Arnold's Turtle Village 6 N $$
Brownies N. of Union Square 6 V $$
Ultimate Lotus (Cantonese) Midtown East 7 R $$
Ratner's (Dairy) Delancy St. 6 ? $
+ about 40 others whose names I forget...
*Everywhere (chains)
The Good Earth 5 N $$
Golden Temple (Krishnas) 3 V $
Of course, no one should use a list like this without checking the
phone book, and calling first.
Additions? Subtractions? Corrections? Send to the net, but I'll
be building a directory...

Great. I would like to see contributions on good vegie restaurants in
various cities. It makes travelling much easier. It would be nice to
include a line or two on each one as to their specialty or other info.
I'll fill in the ?'s on the Sunlight Cafe in Seattle. I eat there about
once a month, and every time I tell myself I won't go back. The food is
pretty poor compared with other restaurants I have been to. The only
thing that saves it is their nutburger, but Julia's has better ones.
Seattle
Sunlight Cafe 6034 Roosevelt 3 V $
Julia's 2305 Eastlake 8 R $$
Julia's Wallingford N & 44th 8 R $$
Good home-made pastas; nutburgers.
