Not downtown, but very good: Grasshopper, on N Beacon St in Allston.

My Thai Vegan Cafe is the only full-vegan restaurant I can think of Downtown. 3 Beach St #2.

It's not much help to anyone looking for vegan food now, but in the 80s and 90s there was a tremendous vegan restaurant on Broad Street called Country Life Vegetarian Buffet. It was all you could eat for $7. It may have originally even been less. It was run by Seventh Day Adventists who would conveniently leave their literature lying around for diners to find, and the guy who was the manager seemed a little strange, but the food was absolutely superb. One did not have to be a vegan (I am not one) to enjoy the food at this restaurant. It was a very popular place with the financial district lunch crowd.

I used to go there every week. That place was great.

Is it still there? They had a full menu of faux meat/fish dishes (tofu and gluten). Not amazing but a fun treat in Chinatown.

I haven't eaten there in over a decade (maybe closer to two), but it was a frequent destination for my circle of straight edge vegan friends in the 90s.

D'guru on Devonshire between Milk St and Franklin makes some of the best Indian food I've had. Plenty of vegan options.

Clover is a much better bet than My Thai vegan. Unless you are really into fried food nostalgia and want to get a few appetizers. The noodle soup and the bubble tea are really the only reasons to go in there, most of the food is pretty blah. Not *bad*, just not worth it. The chickpea pita and BBQ seitan are worth picking clover.

I actually really like their lunch specials. L10 is a favorite and I like the faux gluten meats a lot.

Fire and Ice should allow for good vegan options right?
