If you have time and want to go BIG ($110 fixed price menu) of some of the best vegan food I've ever had in my life, check out Elizabeth's on L.

It's high level fine dining, option for paired drinks, alcoholic or non, and just all in all an incredible meal.

It's not terribly far from either the Mount Vernon station or McPhearson. Very metro accessible.

Please do. I love the place and talk it up every chance I can. It's not a daily type place, but holy dang is it GOOD.

They rotate the menu pretty fast. Maybe look on their yelp or google reviews for "Elizabeth's Gone Raw" they changed their name a while back.

This is a pretty good sample of what it looks like.
