Mother, as it turns out, still loves us: Closed in 2020, the celebrated vegetarian restaurant re-emerged in roomier, snazzier midtown digs last September. Version 2.0 offers favorites created by chef-owner Mike Thiemann that made the original downtown location worthy of Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition and a huge draw for anyone—vegetarian or not—who appreciates expertly crafted dishes bursting with a freshness specific to local, seasonal ingredients. Standbys like the mushroom po’boy and farro salad will revive your palate’s fondest memories, while the Greta’s Nut Burger pays sweet, earthy, slightly caramelized hom- age to the late, lamented midtown gem Greta’s Cafe. A new emphasis on house-made pasta dishes like the recent mushroom Bolognese pappardelle will bridge any perceived gap between “meatless” and “hearty.”
