Green Vegetarian Cuisine

This Chimney Rock restaurant serves vegetarian specialties, including a hefty Mediterranean Bowl brimming with sliced carrots, tomatoes, quinoa tabouli, kale salad, grape leaves, black olives, pecan hummus, tzatziki sauce and falafel patties.

Enchiladas, spaghetti and quinoa are on the menu of this San Antonio-based vegetarian kosher chain that is fast attracting a loyal following among green devotees and non-vegetarians hooked on the kitchen’s clean, simple flavors. The dishes are largely straightforward – from a portabella burger with A.1. steak sauce and caramelized onions to fried eggplant parmesan over marinara-tossed spaghetti. The key is ultra-fresh salads and ingredients brought to life by zippy sauces, which are always available for the asking. The green poblano ranch dressing doesn’t come with the satisfying Frisbee-sized Mediterranean Bowl. But try it to add another dimension to the quinoa tabouli, black olives, falafel patties, dolmas, carrots and tomatoes. Chipotle mayo pairs nicely with the artichoke and portabella quesadilla. Such well-prepared and affordable grub draws a constant stream of regulars to this friendly nook with an earthy-crunchy vibe. Don’t leave without trying a vegan brownie or a hostess cupcake.
