4.0 of 5 stars.
The food is pretty good, but it's slow and the interior is a bit run down. I want to give this place a higher rating because every dish was excellent, but I don't think I can justify a 5 star rating...

I love the vegetarian! I've only been to the lunch buffet, but it is very good and it is nice to not have to worry over whether there is meat in a certain dish. I love the spicy tomato soup that is...

UPDATE: The food here just isn't doing it for me the way it used to. It's still acceptable, and better than your average strip-mall Indian buffet in Bloomington, but lately the dishes here seem a bit...

If you love aloo paratha - stuffed-potato bread Punjabi style - this place is the best. Your taste-buds will recognize chunks of mildly spiced potatoes, fresh chopped cilantro, julienned ginger, and...

I love this place! The food is delicious and the service is wonderful. I have been served by the owner many times and he is a very kind, sweet man. My only wish would be that it was closer to Uptown- then I...

Huge fan of indian food here. But nothing can compete with this place. While the portions are a little on the small side...what makes this place stand out is the obviuous fact that each dish is made to order...

We recently came here for the first time, found the food to be very good, and had a very enjoyable meal. The pakoras were served fresh and hot, and the two main dishes (Malai Kofta and Shahi Paneer) were...

Great food! The Vegetarian serves all vegetarian and vegan Indian food. It was a wonderful surprise to find this place, and my husband and I are now regular visitors. The owner/cook often takes youre order and...

I lived in NYC for five years -- within two blocks of 6th St and all those wonderful Indian places -- and I had just about given up on finding a decent, unpretentious Indian restaurant here in the Twin Cities....

I have been going to the Vegetarian at least once a week for the past year or so, and (as a former chef at the St. Paul Hotel, Luccia's, the table of Contents and others) I rate it one of the most authentic...

The place was dead empty at 7:45 pm when I walked in - you literally could have heard a pin drop! I was seated and menued in no time, but shortly after two people came in and sat across the aisle from me and...

After eating here I realized that most of the Indian places I go to serve canned everything: canned chutney, nan from premade dough, etc. Eating at The Vegetarian is a delight -- the prices are cheap, the...

I cant help but think that the glowing reviews are from desperate vegans aching for a restaurant that serves any vegan dishes. I'm an occasional "flexatarian" tending towards vegetarian, and as a vegetarian I...

I just need to know why you haven't been here yet, that is all. Quit complaining about the location, because I know you love Indian food.Even if you aren't a vegetarian (like me) you can love this...

This place is as good as it gets for vegetarian Indian food. With the demise of Udupi Palace our discovery of The Vegetarian was very timely. And they have Batura, the wonderful puffy bread! We were the only...

Found online searching for a well-received vegetarian restaurant. Stopped in on our trip to the Twin Cities last weekend, and were very pleased. We arrived just before the buffet was scheduled to end, but they...

This is my all time favorite. I love the food, the service, and the relaxed atmoshphere. I'm a mango lassi lover, I admit it. The kheer is fabulous, but if something is extra good, your server will steer you...

This is the best Indian food I've eaten in my life hands down. The Vegetarian is an undiscovered gem just a stone's throw from Minneapolis. We were seated without fuss at almost nine o'clock and were treated...

Namaskar. Having recently re-adopted a vegetarian lifestyle I was pleasantly surprised to find this restaraunt in my neighborhood. My test of an Indian restaraunt is to ask them if they have anything...

I have been to many Indian restaurants in this city, and this is my favorite. The chef, Ashok Bedi, creates dishes with spices I've never tasted to create savory complex flavors. I am not a vegetarian, but I...
