In Short
Vaulted ceilings, powder blue walls and fresh greenery provide an airy ambience. If it feels almost spiritual, that's because it is; the restaurant is operated by students of a spiritual master named Sri Chinmoy. Messages of inner peace are reflected in the vegetarian and vegan options, including the Zen avocado sandwiches and soy "Buddha" burgers. Converts find bliss in the neatloaf--a tangy soy, grain and seasoning blend served with tofu-tamari sauce.
