Anton Shuster: Try the veggie burger. It has beets, lentils, mushrooms, cashews, and bulgur. Top it with avocado and white cheddar, or wasabi, raspberry aioli, and sauerkraut (the latter option is vegan).

Anton Shuster: The warm egg salad sandwich is NOT VEGETARIAN (it has some anchovy in it). If you don't mind small amounts of fish, get it because it's great. If you mind, they have a seasonal vegetarian sandwich.

Anton Shuster: Get the mushroom Gruyere grilled cheese, with roasted potatoes, melted leeks, and caramelized onions all tucked inside. Add in some smoky tomato soup or quinoa salad for a hearty meal.
Anton Shuster: The crispy tofu banh mi has tofu that is shredded for maximum crunch with every bite. You can also get it in a fresh spring roll; both are vegan, as are the avocado or mango-mint shakes.
Anton Shuster: You can get the Korean cheesesteak vegetarian with a marinated "vege-beef" topped with cheese, pickled red onions, jalapenos, and chili sauce.
