Finding a restaurant that caters to the vegan cuisine can be a daunting task to say the least. Vegetarians do not eat meat, fish or poultry; vegans are vegetarians who do not use any animal product or by-product which includes eggs and dairy products. Even though finding a restaurant that is vegan-friendly can be difficult, there are restaurants that offer vegan selections.
Zagol Ethiopian Restaurant
Zagol serves traditional Ethiopian cuisine and is the first and only Ethiopian restaurant in the Reno/Tahoe region. In addition to vegetarian dishes, Zagol also offers authentic beef, lamb and chicken dishes that have an exotic spice. If you choose to enjoy some of its traditional Ethiopian coffee, they will roast fresh coffee beans at your table, grind them and have the coffee prepared. Its vegetarian selections range from Shiro to Kilkil and they are open from Tuesday through Sunday for lunch and dinner.
