California Grill has a wide array of delicious and different salads to choose from, available for both lunch and dinner. They are heaped high on large plates and cost around $10-$14 each, depending on the salad. In the past, they offered half-sizes of their salads which were much more sensible for one person to enjoy – and at half the price, they were much easier on the wallet, as well. Sharing of a dinner salad is recommended, as taking the salad home in a Styrofoam to-go container generally results in soggy lettuce and a wet mess the next day.

In addition to salads, they also offer some delicious chilled fruit soups (seasonally), appetizers, and vegetarian entrees. Entrees come with the choice of either soup or a salad – and oftentimes it is hard to choose between the two! The cucumber dill dressing is very good – my main reason for ordering a house salad when I do – and their soups are great, as well.

I visited this Indian restaurant for dinner one night after I discovered that the other Indian restaurant I often frequented had closed down. There were only a few other tables at the restaurant the night I went, but the lack of customers does not mean that the food was bad. I think there are some people who are still hesitant to try Indian food, but so was I at first and then I became addicted to it.

I had a nice dinner here for about $15. The atmosphere is nice, but it was a little dark inside and kind of hard to read the menu. There were many vegetarian options on the menu, but I already knew what I wanted upon entering the restaurant: malai kofta and garlic naan bread. Both were delicious.

Nice atmosphere, not too fancy, and there is also a full bar. The prices are in the mid-to-high range, but the portions are generous. There are two menus to order from: the dinner menu and the lunch/lighter fare menu.

I have been here for dinner twice with family and the food was excellent on both occasions. At my table, someone ordered the Lamb Montmorency. I did not taste it (for obvious reasons), but it looked delicious and there was a generous portion of lamb for $28.

Dessert was the only course that I, admittedly, was disappointed about. They offered triple chocolate cake, carrot cake, cheese cake, and ice cream the one night I visited – nothing too extraordinary.

This is the only completely vegetarian place to eat in the Reading Terminal Market. Here they offer breakfast and lunch; quick things to take and go. Cash only and no bills over a $20, which is a little inconvenient when – on a few occasions that I have been there – I have only had a debit card on me. That would probably be my only reason for rating it 4 stars instead of 5 stars.

When I come here, I usually order the vegetarian cheese steak, loaded up with lettuce, tomato, onion, and a little bit of mayo (Veganaise, I believe.) It is reasonably priced and delicious.
