UTAH VEGETARIAN FRIENDLY RESTAURANTS
Thai Siam
1435 South State Street, 474-3322
Thai Siam Restaurant is a new addition to the SLC dining scene. With an excellent vegetarian menu, upon request, generous portions and very reasonably priced for lunch and dinner. This small establishment is generally easy to get into but don't be surprised if you have to wait for a table. My personal favorites are their curry dishes and the Pad Se-Iw. If you like tempura veggies they serve a portion so large it will boggle your sensibilties and it's only $5! Try this establishment, you will not be disappointed.

Featuring "Meatless Mondays" where all lunch entrees are $5.99 and dinner entres are $6.99.
Also featuring "Discovery Dishes" as a special enticement to bring clients in before 6pm. These are specialty dishes prepared solely at special times of the day 4-6pm. Look for special pricing on these dishes.

Brewvies
677 South 200 West, SLC, Utah 84101 - Film Info: 801-355-5500
Brewvies is a unique cinema pub located in down town Salt Lake City. There are vegetarian selections on the menu. My personal favorite is their grilled onion covered veggi burger. I'm not sure what brand veggie patty they use but it is GOOD! Nachos, black bean egg rolls, hummus, falafel, and a bevy of other menu items available. Not to mention a decent selection of local and regional mircro-brews.
Check their website for specials.

Caffe Molise's menu is over 50% vegetarian. Vegetarian variations on other menu items and daily vegetarian specials make 75% of the menu veggie-freindly.

Long Life Veggie House

This is a mostly-vegetarian Chinese restaurant. Long Life offers some seafood dishes so this is a decent 'cross-over' restaurant for those who don't want to scare their carnivore friends. Big menu! Aside from a large selection of traditional Chinese vegetarian dishes, there is also a large selection of Chinese dishes made with meat-substitutes.
Bombay House
