Dharma's serves all-natural, organic, vegetarian food that's wholesome and delicious, and they've been serving it since 1982. The restaurant has a cafeteria-style arrangement with a counter where you order and pay for your food first, then pick it up when they call out your name and carry it to the table of your choice.
Michael ordered a Brahma Burger, which is served on really good whole-wheat buns, and I asked for a small bowl of organic brown rice, and could I have a sweet potato? and a mug of Bancha tea (Choice Organic Teas). Michael's grain-and-protein burger came with a small salad and he let me have some of his delicious lemon-tahini dressing to drizzle over my rice.
I was surprised by the sweet potato; it was so big and served on its own special plate. It was very sweet and it made my meal most satisfying.
One time, not so long ago, we came here for an early morning breakfast on a week-day. (They're open 7 days a week from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.) We got there just as they opened and it had a really nice, quiet, sleepy kind of atmosphere. I almost expected to see people still wearing their pajamas! I ordered their multi-grain blueberry pancakes and wow, were they ever good. I'm looking forward to having them again, only a little later on when I reintroduce whole-grain flour products again to my diet plan. (I'll skip the blueberries, though, until my diet is over, 18 months from now.)
They have a two-page menu that you can download from their web site, Dharma's Main Menu, which is the same one they hand out at the restaurant.
I love Dharma's!
