The Infatuation Review

The Infatuation logo

An outsider might find it hard to believe that Austin, Texas is home to a legitimately good vegetarian restaurant scene. But this is the home of Whole Foods, Chacos, and a whole lot of youths who love Bernie Sanders. The hippies have to eat somewhere! And all the other humans of Austin have to consume vegetables sometimes, and if they're gonna do it they're gonna do it right. And that's the exact purpose Bouldin Creek Cafe serves...

Bouldin Creek Cafe is in the best of Austin. A bold, but true statement…meat is not missed at this restaurant. On their website, it states “…we have shown vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike that veggie fare can both be flavorful and satisfying.” Many breakfast, lunch or dinner items can be made Vegan, Gluten or Dairy Free, but definitely try the Fajitas Italianas with Roasted Portabella and Zucchini strips with locally grown tomatoes and homemade chipotle-pecan pesto or the Tofu Scramble for any of their breakfast items.
