DC Vegetarian was awesome! The cozy spot has a friendly vibe, and the food is packed with incredible flavors.
I went for the bacon cheeseburger with a side of wings, while my partner chose the “Before the Butcher” burger and chicken salad. These burgers were hearty and not greasy, leaving us perfectly satisfied. And while the name may raise some eyebrows, they are 100% vegan!
The staff were amazing—so helpful and patient with my million questions. Sure, it can get a bit pricey, but the quality of the food totally justifies it.
A minor downside is that fries are only available on Wednesdays and Fridays, but that didn’t spoil our visit. Also, despite the parking being a bit tricky, DC Vegetarian is a must-visit for some delicious vegan eats!
