Sunflower Vegetarian Restaurant

Sunflower Vegetarian Restaurant, web site, 2531 Chain Bridge Road, Vienna, VA, 703-319-3888, just a bit south of Nutley Road (Metro Trip Planner - opens in new window) [Washingtonian | WaPo | City Paper | food-plan | openlist | Yelp | Gayot]

Many vegetarian dishes, good quality ingredients, but I find each dish combines too many ingredients. Many vegetarians love this place, though. If you want it really spicy, speak up, don't just say "spicy" or they will treat you like a wimp.

For real vegetarian food, see Indian and Southern Indian.

Viet Bistro

Viet Bistro, in Eden Center, Arlington, off Wilson Boulevard, near Rt. 7 (approximately 6801 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, VA), 703-538-7575, in the corner of the mall closest to Wilson Blvd. (Metro Trip Planner - opens in new window) [Washingtonian | City Paper]

Right now this is the best place in the Eden Center and indeed the best Vietnamese place around. Finer and fresher than Four Sisters. Get the baby clams, the caramel fish, the frogs’ legs, the eel, anything with lemon grass, and the shaking beef. Consistently tasty and refined. Good for vegans and vegetarians also, first-rate tofu. Don’t miss it.

Yuan Fu Chinese Vegetarian Restaurant

Yuan Fu Chinese Vegetarian Restaurant, 798 Rockville Pike, near Norbeck Road, Rockville, MD, 301-762-5937 [Washingtonian | WaPo | City Paper | food-plan | openlist | Citysearch | Gayot]

There are many excellent Chinese places in Wheaton and Rockville, but I don’t know most of them. Let’s not forget the Chinese vegetarian places on Rockville Pike, like Yuan Fa.
