Not a lot of options, but good

Had the veggie tacos and double checked to make sure the vegetables where cooked separately (they were). It was alright.

A few vegan options

I greatly appreciate restaurants that go to the trouble of providing a vegan menu. Unfortunately, an employee let me know they grill portobello mushrooms on the same grill along with the meat, and four out of five entrees marked vegan feature grilled portobello. On the plus side, they have a few side dishes that are vegan. I'll stick with the sides, which were good.

Pros: Vegan menu available, Gluten free menu available

Cons: Portobello cooked on grill with meat

Spinach Pasta

I ordered the spinach pasta without cheese. It was pretty good but a bit plain, which I don't mind. They have great outdoor seating and their service was good.

lite lunch

Soups - asparagus and a lentil soup. Both were great. And Patty’s bakery across the street great combo

Tasty dishes

Their vegetarian and vegan options are limited, but they change often and are always fresh and delicious. None of that pretend meat stuff (except the burger, maybe). I mean, vegetables in uniquely prepared dishes that will please even picky diners. One of my favorite places on the island.

Pros: unique vegetarian dishes

Cons: few options

beware the veggie burger

After telling the waitress that I'm a vegan, I chose the veggie burger after making sure they would omit the mayonnaise. Then I asked if the veggie burger was made only with vegetables. I was surprised with the answer. They bind it with EGG WHITES. I told her to delete my order. Luckily they had a small side of brown rice with black beans so I did get something to eat.

Pros: a great place for non-vegans!

Cons: If you're vegan, you won't have much to eat.

Cute cafe lacking in good vegan options.

If you come to Mosquito and are vegan you will have a max of two or three options of which two are veggie burgers (portobello and traditional handmade patty). On occasion they have a special for grilled vegetable tacos but it's not a regular menu item. I really really want to like Mosquito Cafe because it is so damn cute but for the price and flavor of the food it just isn't worth it.

Pros: Good Atmosphere, Fresh Food

Cons: Expensive, Lacking Vegan Options

Not very vegan friendly

I was hoping to find good vegan food at Mosquito Cafe as it had been recommended. I was very disappointed that the menu is very limited. Nothing was vegan. Some dishes could have been made vegan, but would also become totally uninteresting. I did not eat here as a consequence.

Cons: not vegan friendly

Excellent location!

This trendy restaurant offered a vegan dish that was right on the menu. They even had the forethought to remove cheese from the house salad, even though I'd forgotten to mention it specifically. The rice/veggie dish was complex and tasty, and I left feeling like I definitely got my money's worth. My omnivore husband and young children also left feeling satisfied. In addition to the one vegan dish on the menu, there were a number of clearly marked vegetarian dishes, some of which could have been veganized with some modifications by the cook/chef which he would have been happy to do.

Pros: good for mixed veggie/omni families, attentive wait staff, willingness to modify dishes
