Nate and I ate at Veggie Planet in the Boston area after visiting MIT and Harvard. It was another restaurant I'd heard a lot about over at Veggie Boards. However, this one had gotten a lot of negative reviews. People seemed to think the food was good but that the staff was less than accomodating.
When you first walk in, you realize that it is a pretty laid back place. You have to walk down steps to get inside because it is in the basement level of a building. There was a guy playing a 12-string guitar (I think) on the small stage. It was one of those get-your-own-beverages places, which I think is fine.
I guess during normal hours they typically serve pizza, but we were there during brunch-time and they had a special menu. Nate got vegan waffles with fruit and homefries (and I think the waffles had orange flavor, but I'm not sure) and I had homefry tofu scramble, which was excellent.
It had so many vegetables, including what I think was squash. There was actually not much tofu, but that didn't make it bad. Nate declared it the best meal he'd tried on the trip.
We didn't have any problems with the staff and I would go back here again if we're ever again in the area.
