Hi dixieday2- Add Golden Era (the one on O’Farrell) to the list! It’s great veggie Vietnamese, and almost everything is vegan. Same with Shangri-la, an almost all-vegan Chinese place in the Sunset and Lucky Creation...

Mekong has changed owners and is now the second location of Bang San Thai. Bang San kept some of the Mekong menu, but neither seem to compare to Golden Era, an all veggie/mostly vegan Vietnamese joint down the street. I know...

King Noodle sounds like it will fit the bill before the Jeffrey Sachs talk. What a small world this is. My first thought was to hike to Golden Era, but wanted to get some new ideas. I will file the Indian rec for another time....

As a former fan of the Grange Hall (RIP), I went there on Saturday night and it was sadly slow. It retains the same great lighting, decor, and overall Golden Era of Hollywood atmosphere of the Grange Hall, but it seems...

Golden Era, on O’Farrell and Leavenworth has a vegetarian pho. I’ve never tried it, but everything else I’ve had there is pretty good (the vermicelli rice noodles with tofu is first rate). Charles

I had a great version of this at Golden Era in San Francisco but haven’t been able to find it in New York City.

Do you mean Golden Era?

Golden Era on O’Farrell at Leavenworth is yummy, and only about five blocks away. It’s a really interesting vegan place that serves fake meat dishes: http://www.goldeneravegetarian.com/ There’s also Shalimar...

And hi to you, Gary! And thank you, thank you, thank you! I gotta get a copy of this piece of nostalgia incarnate — oh, the memories! I won’t bore the other hounds with tales of the golden era. The cynics might say a "...

Golden Lotus has pretty good pho. If you’re in SF, there’s a place called Golden Era on Geary that is owned by the daughter of the guy who owns Golden Lotus. I haven’t been to Golden Era, but I hear...

Minako in the Mission offers veggie gyoza, and Karma out in the Inner Richmond has veggie momos. Golden Era in the Tenderloin and Shangri-la out in the Sunset also have veggie potstickers.

Golden Era in the Tenderloin: This is one of the best asian vegetarian (vegan for the most part) restaurants in town. Vietnamese, Chinese, just plain yummy. Big flavors, low prices. Lucky Creation in Chinatown: Very popular and...

We went to Golden Lotus, the vegetarian place on 13th and Franklin (one block from Broadway/BART). Been a few times and it’s always been pretty good but not terribly exciting. Golden Era in SF is better.

In addition to Millenium, you must visit Greens and Cafe Gratitude and perhaps Golden Era www.goldeneravegetarian.com/ Link: http://www.withthecurrent.com/menu.html

on this list: Golden Era, which was recommended at , and Fina Estampa, which was recommended, er, by someone else. Golden Era was good, not great — higher points in freshness than taste, and the lauded pot stickers felt...
