About this business

Housed in a restored historic building, The Grit shows how good vegetarian fare can taste if done well. The interiors still retain the peeled walls and exposed bricks look, which adds to the charm of the place. The walls have been adorned with pretty paintings and there are comfortable chairs and banquettes where you can enjoy a healthy, tasty meal. The menu features plenty of gluten-free and vegan dishes.

Vegetarian - scruptious This is my favorite restaurant in town, and it is also a great place to take family and friends when they come to visit. I love the casual atmosphere and the great food. I always eat too much, but try and leave room for their amazing desserts (if not.. get one to go, they are worth it!!)

Love the Golden Bowl! – Visiting my grandson here, I had a great vegetarian experience. Not being a vegetarian myself, I was still impressed with the many fantasic offerings! I loved the golden bowl with the gravy. Who would have thought meat could be so easily missed?

great local veggie restaurant This is a great local place and with reason. They're recipes are out of this world and don't make you feel like you're eating vegitarian. You can eat dinner for under $10 but make sure to leave room for dessert. Last time I was there I had an organic apple pie that was out of the world. Food that is good for you that tastes good too.

Excellent Everything – Wonderfully tasty food. Nice college-town restaraunt atmosphere. Excellent service, very helpful with menu options, and even with directions out of town. Sweet Potato soup and Teriaki Tofu and Grilled Vegetables in a Pita were scrumptious!
