Just had my last meal at East West Cafe in Santa Rosa. Ordered Moussaka, was served a heap of overcooked eggplant and peppers. Tasteless rice and huge hunks of old lettuce, tateless slice of tomato. As my granny used to say “God sent food and the devil sent cooks.” Pity as it is a loveley location and nice atmosphere. Very empty tonight so I guess the word has gone out that East West has lost its touch.

Although not a vegetarian restaurant exclusively, California Thai (7th St., between B and Mendocino) has a large variety of vegetarian options, and many can be done McDougall-style. You have to ask for the separate vegetarian menu — the regular menu does not list the many vegetarian items.
And let’s not forget Fresh Choice!

Great info! My husband & I are vegan and we love Cafe Gratitude and Living Light Cafe. You forgot to mention The Ravens restaurant in Mendocino, its great!

As a “pescetarian” that is healthy and conscious of where her food comes from, but loves good savory food GG’s Earth and Surf and Seb-Town’s Peter Lowell’s are phenomanal! Sonoma county really needs more places like this.
thanks for the article on good vegatarian places!

Thank you for the mention of Living Light Culinary Arts Institute. Along with raw gourmet culinary classes for individuals, chefs, and instructors, Living Light also has a great place to eat — the Living Light Cafe. Living Light is in the historic Company Store in downtown Fort Bragg. The website is RawFoodChef.com

Thanks for the Mendocino mention Heather! Don’t forget Ubuntu over the hill in Napa. My nephew-in-law is the Chef de Cuisine and was recently an assistant on Iron Chef America (3/1).

… And now I am hungry. THANKS! I look forward to one day being able to try the veggie menu at Cryus. For now, I will stick to my own cooking and hopefully soon a lesson from Jill!

Thanks for this list. I’m excited to try the tasting menu at Cyrus, I always feel so left out of those!
