Garden Cafe

Garden Cafe in Orlando, FL

Downtown Orlando (map), 407-999-9799, GardenCafeVege.com
Meat substitutes are used. Quality is excellent. Most items are vegan. Menu reads like a traditional Chinese restaurant menu (i.e. "sweet and sour pork", "General Tso's chicken", etc.) but everything uses a soy meat substitute. There are also some "American" items like pasta and veggie sandwiches.
Woodlands
Downtown Orlando (map), 407-854-3330, Woodlands-USA.com
"Pure Vegetarian South Indian Cuisine." A bit of a drive (near Florida Mall), but so worth it! They serve the most delicious Indian food ever. Super fresh, authentic, and totally meat free.

P.F. Chang's China Bistro
Millenia (map) and Winter Park (map), PFChangs.com
The P.F. Chang's experience is a unique combination of Chinese cuisine, attentive service, wine, and tempting desserts all served in a stylish, high-energy bistro. This same company runs Pei Wei. P.F. Chang's is more elegant, both are delicious!

Been looking for a pizza place with quality pizza and toppings? Mellow Mushroom is the place to go. Lots of fresh veggies, tofu, and other toppings. They used to carry soy cheese (hopefully they'll bring it back someday); they will put it on if you bring it in though (make sure to tell them no cheese/parmesan/butter, so it's vegan)! BARC has social events there occassionally, so feel free to join us! We'll usually share a few pizzas with various toppings and Follow Your Heart brand soy mozzarella cheese (instead of dairy mozzarella).
Mama Fu's
Orlando (on Conroy Rd) (map), 407-363-1667, MamaFus.com
From their website, "If you look closely, you'll see that you could have Mama Fu make you a meal from a different nationality every day of the work-week to maintain your spice of life. With selection like that, if you ever eat a burger again it's your own fault. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, or Thai – it’s your choice. But no matter what you choose we’ll cook it fresh in a wok and serve it to you hot and fast."
Infusion Tea
