This was another restaurant I found online that I wanted to go to while in Boston. Some people over at Veggie Boards recommended it, but some also said they didn't like it. Apparently there is another all vegetarian restaurant called Grasshopper in the city that is supposed to be better. Nonetheless, this one was a lot closer and I thought it was very good.
The entrance was kind of shady, but hey, I wasn't expecting the Hilton or anything. You had to go up a couple flights of stairs to get to it, so I guess it is not very handicap accessible. Once you got inside, it was nice though. I guess they had a buffet in the afternoon before we got there which would have been nice to try, but whatevs. Nate and I had tofu sushi and two faux-meat and vegetable dishes that were essentially identical. I have to say, there is really no need for them to keep creating faux-shrimp. I think eating shrimp to begin with is nasty, so why would I want faux-shrimp? It was kind of just little rolled up turds of soy product with a red tint. It didn't taste bad though. I do kind of wish they would stop calling their faux-meat products "tofu beef," "tofu pork," etc. Why can't it just be like "soy product?" It all kind of tastes the same to me anyways. Do we REALLY need faux-lamb?
Aside from all of that, it was still good and I would go back. We would have gone to Grasshopper too, but it was like 30 minutes out of the city and next door to the restaurant we were hopping out that way for and we didn't want to make the trip again some other day.

So I think there needs to be more categories since the top of the page indicates "Restaurant reviews in Pittsburgh." Boston clearly does not equal Pittsburgh!

Don't mention the word category to me! Ugh.
But yeah, I know. These are just special : )
