Liora and Double Zero are both relatively fancy all vegan spots on the inner harbor. I’ve been to both with meat eaters and they’ve really enjoyed them.

My go-to is the Helmand in Mt. Vernon though.

My favorite meal ever! Kaddo Borawni, vegetarian mantwo (vegetarian dumplings, delish!), Afghan ice cream, and cardamom tea!

This is the answer. Baltimores only “fancy” vegan dining.

Shame that the media decided to cancel vegetarians, its all vegan trash now.

I just want to have the choice to avoid meat, not have every good thing about food completely removed from my life lmao.

Would go to Helmand save for the fact that I was in Sangin in 2006-07. It may sound stupid but “go to Helmand” activates some PTSD for me. Perhaps takeout someday.

You could try Kabobi? Not as formal, still delicious.

If you’re willing to take a drive, one of my favorite places is Great Sage In Clarksville.

Hell ya, love Great Sage. Another good Howard County spot with a lot of vegetarian stuff is Ananda!

I’ve never been there; will have to check it out. I’m not even vegetarian and I think Great Sage is awesome! I love the pierogi quesadilla

Go to an indian or ethiopian restaurant. You could walk into either one and order vegetarian dishes that would make even a meat eater satisfied

Highly recommend Alma Cocina Latina (Venezuelan food) in Station North. Delicious mushroom risotto and several vegetarian apps/small plates in a beautiful setting (feels like a jungle with plants all over). Less fancy but Clavel also has delicious Mexican food and drinks (but prepare to wait if you go later than 5, as they don't take reservations)

One World was always a standby for us.

One World is pretty good for breakfast but it’s definitely not “fancy”.

I used to go there fairly regularly with vegan friends, but it seemed like it deteriorated over time. Last visit (pre pandemic) the service was bad and the coffee was execrable. Has it gotten better?

dingodile_user t1_iwa24px wrote

They are usually short staffed (especially when it’s busy) but they try to be nice about it. As for the coffee, I’m not much of a connoisseur so I can’t really speak to the quality. To me, it’s fine, but if you have high standards maybe it would be underwhelming?

Verde Pizza is nice! Lots of vegetarian options.

Lebanese Taverna near the harbor has some killer falafel and just some really good vegetarian options as well. Also I know I'm a rando on reddit but Happy Birthday!

Food Market had great veg and meat options. Loved it.

Liquid Earth in Fells Point, not really fancy but the best vegan/vegetarian food around and juices too.

Happy birthday! I assume you already went out, but for the future: Cookhouse in Bolton Hill often features at least one plant-based ~fancy~ dining option. The restaurant itself is small and would be a great birthday spot! Good drinks if you drink, too. Current plant based (and gluten free!) option is risotto (arborio rice, wild mushrooms, wine, mushroom stock, plant-based parmesan).

My best buddy is vegetarian. When they wanna take me out for dinner they always have me decide on the location so I try to look at the menus and straight up ask "which item sounds best" and go from there, hahaha.
