"The vegan options are delicious. The Falafel is now vegan, and there is a vegan cheese option for pizzas. Many pages are vegan. Just now are sides that are vegan or can be made vegan, are warm olives, mushrooms, papas Bravas (no aioli), Brussels sprouts, hummus (running or dinner), mushrooms, and shishito paprika. The salads are also great. On the brunch menu, the crushed avocado toast and the avocado bowl are my favorites, but the Shakshuka dish, which is served like a Mediterranean tomato stone with flatbread, and the chilaquiles are also delicious. There is a new squash dish that is also really good. Overall, I would say there are more vegan brunch options than dinner, but highly recommended for both!"

"You need this. Wonderful food with wonderful service. I could wax long about the all around experience but you really need to just go yourself. I arrived at 5:45 on a Tuesday and barely beat the rush. Seated right away. First time so let waiter pick my food. Started with onion rings, house salad with creamy parm, then had Ziti for my main course. Finished with warm brownie dessert. $50 for all that. Enough leftovers for a family of 4. Seriously. My water was never empty. My server was fantastic and got a crazy generous tip cause he was so nice and attentive. The only reason 5 star was not awarded- they forgot my dessert and I waited almost 30 minutes for it. By that time my stomach had realized it was full and I didn't want it anymore. Will be adding this gem to our regular circuit of local places we love. Go! You will enjoy it."

"kathmandu has several clearly marked vegan and vegetarian elements on their menu. I enjoyed the vegan momo that are Nepalese noodles and come with a very tasty spicy sauce. we also ordered two more vegan curries that had beautiful spicy and aromen, but unfortunately were a little undersalted. perhaps there was an unfortunate day; I would be willing to give the advantage of the doubt and try kathmandu again!"

"This was our first time eating at this restaurant. We went with another couple who eat there frequently. For appetizers, they ordered the lettuce wraps basil style and we ordered the Thai dumplings. For the main course, they always get the fried rice. My wife ordered the panang scallops and I chose the yellow curry with chicken. Everything was delicious. Our waitress was one of the nicest I've ever dealt with. She kept telling us to take our time and enjoy our meal, and offered suggestions about what to oreder. She stopped at our table several times to make sure we didn't need anything. At the end of the meal, she told us we could stay and talk with our friends if we wanted. If they had been busy, it may have different. Still it was a nice gesture on her part. Definitely going back again."
