Passage To India
Vegetarians in the mood for Indian cuisine will be delighted with Passage To India (formerly Udupi Restaurant). Passage To India is an all-vegetarian Indian restaurant located in central Indianapolis. Try the Gobi 65 for starters, deep-fried cauliflower with Indian spices. For the main course order one of the curries. The tandoori-clay-oven-cooked vegetables in a mildly spiced Indian sauce is a introduction for those new to Indian food. Order a side of naan bread with your meal for an authentic dining experience. Passage To India has a relaxed atmosphere and serves lunch and dinner Tuesday through Sunday.

Broad Ripple Brewpub
Founded in 1990, Broad Ripple Brewpub was the first brewpub in Indiana and is the largest in the state. The pub boasts the distinction of having been named Indiana's best brewpub every year since 1996 by Nuvo Magazine and Indianapolis Monthly.
Broad Ripple offers a variety of vegetarian foods such as salads, pasta dishes, pizzas, sandwiches and house specialties. To eliminate the guesswork, every vegetarian item or dish that can be ordered vegetarian is marked with a "V" on the menu. Try one of the veggie burgers with lettuce, tomato, Swiss cheese, red onion and mayo. Other options include vegan shepherd's pie with garden crumbles, potatoes and vegetables; falafel (chickpea cakes with Mediterranean spices); and a hearty portobello sandwich. Wash down your meal with one of the pub's award-winning microbrews. Broad Ripple has a relaxed atmosphere and is open seven days a week for lunch and dinner.
