Red Lentil Vegetarian & Vegan Restaurant

Lauren

Awesome family-run vegan/vegetarian spot serving up wholesome comforting dishes from a variety of global cuisines. Some dishes lean in the direction of whole foods/plant-based (like the salad bowls and the soups) while others are more straight-up comfort food (like nachos and pizza). I greatly appreciated that the menu designates which items contain coconut. They are overall very accommodating of dietary preferences. We started with the iconic red lentil soup that was absolutely delightful. It is hearty and filled with satisfying little bites of seasonal vegetables. Next, we had the eggplant caponata that was on the heavier side but irresistibly seasoned. The mantra salad bowl was a big winner; I would have loved if the biryani was made with brown rice, but overall it seemed extremely healthy but also filling and super flavorful. The TexMex enchilada was AMAZING (although the term “enchilada is used pretty loosely… clearly this thing was a burrito!) It was filled with delicious fresh veggies and black beans and topped with incredible spicy mole sauce. We had such a great, filling, nourishing meal, and this was just from the lunch menu! We can’t wait to come back and try the dinner menu sometime that had awesome offerings like Jamaican jerk tempeh. Overall, this was a great meal that reminded me of the kind of old-school vegan restaurants that are hard to find these days. It is worth the trip out from Boston for anyone who is in search of a healthy, delicious meal.

the food is creative and artfully prepared. some items were a bit bland/not well balanced. the shepherd’s pie seemed highly recommended but it had way too much mashed potatoes and mashed squash with not nearly enough of the “meat” crumble. overall too sweet and mushy. however the french fries and the oyster mushroom calamari were delicious.

The food was good overall. The lemonade was too sweet for my taste, I wish it was homemade. The waffles were solid, an 8/10, and the French fries were amazing. The scrambled eggs with mozzarella cheese were enjoyable. Service was excellent, with friendly and welcoming staff. The restaurant itself is beautiful, making for a great dining experience. I can’t recall the lady and gentleman that served, but both were great.

Gobi Manchurian was amazing! The daily special tofu polenta was really nice, but something felt a bit lacking—maybe a certain spice. The avocado-based vegan chocolate mousse wasn’t for me, though my friend thought it was okay. Probably wouldn’t order that again if it’s on the menu.
