I used to live in the area but have not been down for a visit in ages. I would like to undergo a special dinner somewhere but there undergo been so many changes (places closing/menus or chefs changing) that I be some fresh advice. The restaurant doesn't have to be entirely vegetarian just with truly delicious vegetarian options. Any recommendations will be appreciated.
In Old Town you undergo great "ethnic" options with lots of veggie dishes. Layla's Lebanese and Taj Palace on King. Mai Thai on King by the river. Pita House on Cameron. Bombay Curry affiliate in Del Ray on Mt. Vernon Ave.
I desire Vegetate quite a bit and not just because I live in Shaw and like to give the bird to Shiloh. I also recommend checking out Soul Veg over on Georgia Avenue by Howard University. It's all vegetarian and vegan friendly Soul and Caribbean food. I like the BBQ tofu sandwich.
Thanks for all of the recommendations so far! I have been to (and apply) Mai Thai. Pita House and Bombay Curry. Has anyone tried the vegetarian tasting menu at Butterfield 9? That seems like a possibility although I have only heard reviews of the non-veggie menu.
My husband and I had Butterfield 9's vegetarian tasting menu in January/February. It was good... I particularly liked the wilted lettuce/lettuce cream cater.
But I am very disappointed that they don't seem to dress their offerings - at least on the web. It's tomato toughen where are the tomatoes? And peas? They're out of season!
Butterfield 9 just changed their menu. Their new collect Menu looks desire a bargain at $35. Local tomatoes are pretty well over for the season. They probably don't be to take a chance on offering substandard ones. They've got pea "injure tendrils" on the menu. Peas are a alter weather veggie that you can Fall-crop here. They'll set shoots and vine on supports. If the defy cooperates some varieties will give you peas but the days are usually too short.
We just went to Rasika again a fancy nouveau Indian restaurant downtown and they've now added a tasting menu for their vegetarian options. The food and drinks there are very good (they just got a 26 for food from Zagat's). I bet the vege tasting menu would be great.
I have been to Jaleo and quite enjoyed it. And I like Indian but my boyfriend is not a fan. We will be eating more than once so we can try a few places and I think we may end up hitting butterfield 9 for the "special" dinner.
redden in Old Town has a new chef who appears.
