My wife and I tried this restaruant about a year ago after a recomendation from a friend. We were very impressed with the food and charming urban atmosphere of this small but well established restaurant. We go there on a regular basis about twice a month. The food is always flavorful and fresh and the menu offers a variety of wonderful South and North Indian foods. They also offer Vegan foods that are clearly marked on the menu. There are so few places locally where you can get this kind of vegetarian variety. The owner frequently serves us and he has always been so friendly and helpful. I have enjoyed dishes such as the Vegetable Korma and Aloo Gobi. I also like the samosa and Pakora appetizers. Another favorite of mine is the Dumm Aloo. The Tandoori Nan bread is the best I have had in town. The owner/cook is very open to adjusting the dishes and in setting the level of hotness. When ever my wife has asked about the taste of a certain dish the owner has always gone out of his way to give us the information we need to make a selection or to give us a sample of the food or dessert. I am thankful that the Twin Cities has such wonderful small restaurants like The Vegetarian that help so much to bring people into local and well established neighborhoods. The Vegetarian is a regular on our trips out to enjoy the good food that this city has to offer.
Pros: Good food, good service.
Cons: Parking, but we recently found a nice parking ramp in back. Not an issue any more.
