I’ve read the other reviews, and it’s true what they say: this vegetarian restaurant—one of Seattle’s oldest—is run by the Seattle Sri Chinmoy Centre; in fact, their name was "given" to them by Chinmoy himself. Silence-Heart-Nest, by serving healthful and tasty meals, strives to provide its customers "delicious food that satisfies both inwardly and outwardly, combined with a peaceful atmosphere." The female servers wear saris, and Indian music plays on the stereo. Most of the food is Indian but there are also American and international dishes, all vegetarian, with vegan dishes marked by a "v" on the menu, and wheat-free options. Desserts are sweetened with alternatives to white sugar.
No, the five stars are not to protect my soul from rebirth as an Untouchable; despite my teasing, I like the food, and I find the staff warm-loving-kind.

I've been to a sister restaurant in Chi-town called Victory's Banner and the names of several other related establishments all bear the same cadence. Sri Chinmoy is a dynamic man and the people who work at SHN follow him because he rocks. Or so I've read.
But we're here about the food.
I like the fake bacon in whatever I order. They are known for their 'neat' loaf. The blue interior might be a bit alarming, but you get used to it. I love this place.

This odd Fremont restaurant serves only vegetarian food so you can start your day with good karma. If you are not sure what to order, just take a chance. We have had pretty good luck with everything. As I understand it, the place is run by the followers of a charismatic leader. Find his wisdom printed on the sugar packets.
