There are an growing number of vegetarian restaurants in the city - most are simple, comfortable places that offer good everyday menu options. Candle 79 boldly breaks this mold. The food, ambiance, and service is second to none (for a vegetarian restaurant). Finally we vegetarians can have have our nice place too. Whether it's a special occaision, a romantic date night, or an evening where you just want to try a new caliber of vegetarian food, Candle 79 is the place to go.
My favorite dishes are the chimichurri and the seitan picatta - but really you can't go wrong with any selection. If reading the menu on-line doesn't make your mouth water, I don't know what will.
Pros: outstanding food, beautiful ambiance, personal service
Cons: only one location, average desserts
