You might want to look into Purple Yam. Its food is very interesting , the place is stylish and while there is a lot of delicious meat they do have enuf choices for a vegetarian to have an enjoyable meal.
We havent visited Applewood, but weve vetted it in the past for veg choices and they were adequate.
