Boston.com

A vegan mainstay, and, for a long time, was one of the city ’s few true vegan dining options. If you can look past its kitschy website, you’ll find an almost overwhelming selection of veggie-based fare Read more

Inexpensive lunch options include a main dish, soup , and choice of rice . Try the No Name: battered gluten in a sweet and sour sauce served with steamed vegetables and sesame seeds Read more

James Moreau-Drew

One of the best and most tasty resteraunts, that also happens to be Vegan . It's hard to understand what there isn't to like here.

Christian

This place has great vegan food . Try the lo mein and a hot cup of tea . Food is affordable and portions are generous so it's a great value .

#12 &#41. Bean cakes are a deep fried delight, and the vermicelli with veggie pork is comfort food at it's finest.

Maynard Clark

Vegan buffet WITH the Boston Vegetarian Society IF you attend the 4 pm talk - buffet - all the vegan food you care or dare to eat on the 3rd Sunday of each month. Read more

Megan Luff

Pretty decent. I've been to better. But still a new place to try for veggies which is always fab.

Jenna Levine

Tea (hot our iced depending in the season) and water served with every meal. An app or two and an order of "no name" is plenty for two!

Maynard Clark

The monthly vegan buffet with BVS (the Boston Vegetarian Society) is lots of fun; it's a vegan variety hour of many different things we enjoy.

CityRover Media

You absolutely have to order the No-Name off the specials menu; it’s gluten with a kind of General Tso’s-esque sauce & crunchy sesame seeds . Read more

Annah Todd

I wanted something healthy not ladened in sauce or oil, so I got steamed vegetables . Huge mistake, it was 1.5 cups of frozen mixed vegetables tossed in boiling water and cost $10. Not worth it.

Sarah M.

The No Name is great but I also recommend the #69. Easy to remember as well as delicious.

A S

Wish they offered half portions. No Name is too much for one person to finish, your jaw gets tired from all the chewing.

Maynard Clark

BVS is there most months on the 3rd Sunday afternoon at 4 pm with a free talk, followed by a vegan buffet for $10 each

Katie Valdivia

The NoName is clearly revered and loved but anyone who has frequented this place for the past decade can tell

Richard McLaughlin

I hate the no-name. Love the #15 app though. Their salad dressing is crazy good.

Shailendra Mookim

Get "No Name" dish & chicken fingers (Number 77 from menu)!

Maynard Clark

No one knows anyone else here UNLESS they're here for the Boston Vegetarian Society's monthly educational seminar. THEN everyone is REALLY CHUMMY !!

Jenna Soares

No name is a classic. I also have a weakness for the chicken fingers . Long time grasshopper fan.

Sarah Brooks

Best place to eat in the afternoon since Peace o'Pie doesn't open until 5pm in the winter. Yes, I got the No Name.

J T

No name is good, but it's gigantic. If you're eating for one, try a few appetizers .

Amy Rubin

Sobs noodles with peanut sauce appetizer

David Chevalier

Good service . I don't think this food is healthy even though it is vegan .

Dan B

Best vegi food in Town ! BBQ Pork is very tasty!

John Dwyer

The pizza place next door is vegan too.

Andrea D

no name fills the sesame chicken void left from my meat eating days. jasmine tea is awesome.

Maynard Clark

Love it! The Boston Vegetarian Society (BVS) goes here monthly.

Craig Silva

Split the no name with a friend! (ITS HUGE!)

Isha Gujarati

Decent vegetarian thai food

Shailendra Mookim

'No Name' & no. 77 are the best!

Ian Klarman

No Name!!!! So good

Brandy Thomas

Everyone must try No Name! Best dish I've eaten in a very long time.

Frank

The No Name is the best! Followed closely by the "chicken " fingers.

Paul Lurie

The "No Name" is so good it doesn't need a name.

Debra Askanase

Lunch special is $6.25 with soup also.

Rae

Portions are huge! Tempura is only so-so, pretty chewy.

Sandeep Alluri

"THE NO NAME" is the best!

Chetana Sanghvi

Chetana Sanghvi

Great vegan restrent

Heather

The No Name is delicious!

Donnie

The number 4 and the No Name

Eliza Chase

Go every third Sunday of the month for $10.70 buffet !

Mary Chevalier

Hmm. This food might taste ok, but the No Name is probably No Good for you. And chicken fingers are surrounded by fried dough . Belch

Stephanie Lambrenos

Order #1, 8, 13, 69 and a no name. Sure to induce food coma.

Tom Cummings

Chicken finger appetizer is the best food ever.

Paul H.

"The No Name" for life!

Really nice venue! Little sound treatment, so bring your earplugs (just in case). Multiple bars, and some pool tables. $10 margarita, but it was a fairly large drink, so it was worth it! - Kristen Richard
