vegetarian Vegetarian Restaurants

Though I can't hope to ever have a definitive list of vegetarian restaurants, I do travel quite a bit and thought it might be interesting to share information about vegetarian restaurants that I have actually been to. This list includes vegetarian and vegan restaurants, as well as restaurants that are not entirely vegetarian but have a nice vegetarian selection (at least five main courses).

Canada  
Le Commensal
Montréal, Québec
Popular chain of vegetarian restaurants, with an extensive buffet. Rather than paying a set fee for all you can eat, you fill up your plate and pay by the kilo.

Costa Rica
Arco Iris
Tamarindo
At least a hundred vegetarian dishes from all over the world. Apparently it's closed now, but it deserves a spot here as the best vegetarian restaurant I have ever been to - the menu was amazingly diverse and the food was divine.

France  
Le Grenier de Notre Dame
18 rue de la Bûcherie
Paris
Nice little veggie restaurant in Paris (I ate there years ago and can't remember the specifics, but I do remember that I liked it).
En vert et contre tout
40 rue des Filatiers
Toulouse
Excellent vegan and organic restaurant. Fixed-price menus include a variety of usual and unusual dishes.
La faim des haricots
3 rue des Puits verts
Toulouse
Very good vegetarian buffet.
Numéro C
3 place des Carmes
Toulouse
Somewhat limited menu, but delicious nonetheless.

United States
California

80 North Market St.
San José, CA

Massachusetts  
Zapotec

Oak Bluffs, Martha's Vineyard
Cute Mexican restaurant with vegetarian burrito and enchilada options.

Fantastic vegetarian/organic restaurant named for the old fashioned diner-style counter that takes up a third of it.
The Organic Grill
123 First Ave.
New York City
Nice little vegetarian grill with soups, salads, sandwiches, wraps, and an enormous selection of organic teas. Sunday brunch.

Su Tao Café
81 Lancaster Ave.

Vegan Chinese restaurant, with menu and buffet. Numerous mock meat dishes.
