Best Vegetarian / Vegan Restaurants in Van Ness

Great service and tasty food, and got seated quickly even though we arrived almost 30 minutes early

This was our second visit, and we were left wondering why we don’t come here more often. The rooms are cozy and inviting, the service excellent, and the food is delicious and fairly priced. Portions are generous but not overwhelming. We were brought fluffy flat bread with four dipping sauces, each with a different and interesting flavor. We’d have had more but wanted to save room for the meal. The first visit we started with the trio of dumplings - all very good, but we decided the scallion ones were our favorite, so just ordered those this time. We love lamb, and shared two dishes, the lamb chops and braised lamb with greens. We opted for Qabuli rice with the chops, very much worth the slight uptick in price. The chops were perfectly cooked as ordered, the lamb shank was incredibly tender and fell off the bone, and the greens were similar to a paneer which we always enjoy. We somehow found room for cardamom ice cream and sheer birinj, an infused rice pudding. The service was not rushed, attentive but not intrusive. We will be back very soon!

Absolutely incredible flavors, presentation was amazing, had the best time!

Mita is a once in a lifetime experience. The respect to culture and history is incomparable. The delicacy of the food and the attention to detail was phenomenal. It felt like we were being transported to a different time and place. Every bite and attention to hospitality and description was impeccable.

Server was amazing, food was exceptional as always
