The Best Overall - The Refectory - " 5 Fork Award "
From their famed oatmeal in the morning to servins of Indian Dal and meatball spaghetti in the afternoon, The Refectory has many offerings for Vegans and meat-lovers alike. Located in the Divinity School, the Refectory is a great spot for a quick, healthy lunch date with a current flame or a group of friends. It serves up home-cooked meals just like those your mom wishes you were eating instead of cold pizza and garlic bread.
There are really no options at this organic, homey eatery to avoid.
But if you're watching your weight, try to stay away from the extensive collection of treats, which include blueberry cheesecake, jumbo brownies and slices of pecan pie (Warning: few have succeeded in their attempts).
