Govinda's Vegetarian Cuisine

Tucked away in a gorgeous Hindu temple, you’ll want to come hungry to this buffet-style vegetarian delight—especially on Sundays and Wednesdays, when they serve an all-vegan lineup. With an empty stomach, you can fill and refill your plate with Indian specialties including hearty Paneer Tikka Masala, creamy Tofu Curry simmered in coconut milk, and vibrant vegetable platters. Pro-tip: The lunch and dinner buffets can be purchased for take-out and delivery in case you don’t have time to hit the tables.
How to book: Stop by for first come, first served seating or get delivery via Uber Eats.

Joynitai and Jamuna Dasadhikari, the husband-and-wife team behind this culinary masterpiece, have been reminding Houstonians that plant-based foods can still be flavorful since 2016. Tucked away in the ISKCON of Houston—a spiritual temple teeming with programs devoted to teaching the Krishna Consciousness movement—customers can indulge in everything from steamy Barbecue Tofu simmered in tomato sauce to veggie-laden plates crowded with creamy sauces, house-made dressings, and rice. One bite and you might drop meat altogether—it’s really that good. The menu changes daily, so if you’re hankering for something not listed on the website, try giving them a call before visiting.
