| - I've been to Veggie House Vegetarian Restaurant on multiple occasions, and it is one of the few places I consistently recommend to others, regardless if they're vegan/vegetarians/omnivores/carnivores/t-rexes.
Here's why:
*The décor is lovely.
*The service is wonderful.
*The prices are reasonable (ESPECIALLY the lunch special).
*Nearly everything is delicious.
*The menu is massive.
*They have a charming sign on the door that basically says "NO MEAT ALLOWED!" :D
I've had a chance to try multiple dishes and thought I'd provide my thoughts on a few:
-Curry Chicken with Potato: Possibly my favorite dish. The curry sauce creates the perfect gravy for the chicken and potatoes. An ideal comfort food!
-Geese: Amazing layers of veggies with a crispy outer crust. I don't know how the Chef makes this one, but it's divine. Pair your leftovers with a salad and you'll have a great lunch the next day.
-General Tzo Chicken: This is my non-vegetarian boyfriend's most favorite dish. He says it reminds him of Orange Chicken and he literally orders it every single time.
-Crispy Spicy Eggplant: A lot of reviewers hailed this as the most delicious dish on the menu, but this is where I'm going to have to disagree. I found it to be too sweet and the sauce to be too thick to properly enjoy.
-Crab Meat Shark Fin Soup: We decided to try something different when we ordered this one with egg drops. It was interesting, but not a hit. I think it would have been better without the egg, so consider that before ordering.
-Walnut Shrimp: I found the faux-seafood to be too convincing. Ordinarily, that's a compliment to the chef. However, when things taste a little too much like the "real deal," I start to freak out and panic and can't enjoy the meal because I worry I accidentally ate meat. I'm a crazy vegetarian, what can I say.
-Drinks: No fountain drinks, but a decent selection of canned or bottled sodas and juices.
Worth noting, I have taken both my younger brother (who would live off Carl's Jr. if he could) and boyfriend (who usually threatens to break up with me any time I recommend a vegetarian restaurant for dinner) here and they both loved it just as much as I did. So, rest-assured vegetarians and meat-eaters alike will enjoy this place! You can even bring your pet T-Rex!
