Many vegan options - Edit
Almost all vegetarian options can be made vegan, even one of the deserts. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable. Everything we ordered was delicious.

Good - Edit
Indian food will not be my first choice, but there’s literally nothing here in Vail. they told me everything on them vegetarian menu can be made vegan. Not sure if that’s true or how that’s possible, but I had the coconut vegetable korma and the veggie dumplings and they were good.

Numerous veg options, but ask about dairy - Edit
With a pleasant atmosphere and a friendly manager, Annapurna is a good option for mixed-diet groups or when the local veg places are closed.
Read moreThe menu includes many options for lacto-vegetarians, but vegans should ask about dairy ingredients and make sure they understand not to include dairy-based condiments such as raita (which is included by default with the samosas, for example).
They can veganize the saag paneer by holding the paneer and using coconut milk instead of cream, and the result is delicious.
There’s both indoor and outdoor seating, and the latter is lovely when the weather is good.

A whole veg section - Edit
The menu has a whole vegetarian section and most of it can be veganized by subbing coconut cream for dairy cream. I had Chana masala and another dish and both were able to be veganized and were delicious.

Great mountain eats! - Edit
Park in the hotel parking lot, go through the lobby and it’s inside. Great menu. All the veggie menu can basically be made vegan! Enjoy!

Great vegan option in Vail - Edit
With a large hungry group of mixed dietary needs, Annapurna delighted all. Our vegans enjoyed the veggie momo and veggie chau chau. We carried out so can’t speak to the service or atmosphere but were happy that the restaurant got every part of our large order exactly right, including spice level, on a night when they were super busy. #grateful
Read morePros: Nicely seasoned vegan dishes, Convenient Lionshead location, Omnivores loved it too
Cons: Location signage is small, Parking lot on the small side

It’s NOT vegan! - Edit
Do not trust the food here. No labeled vegan options. I specified multiple times that I’m vegan, yet the server suggested food with meat/dairy in it. After I clarified what vegan meant and ordered, they still put dairy in the food. I fell sick afterwards. Very disappointed.

Pretty good - Edit
Food was hot and tasted pretty good. They only gave me one vegan option and it really only tasted like coconut milk and portions were small. But definitely best option in Vail for a vegan hot dinner.

Good food, cute place, lots of vegan options - Edit
Stopped by for lunch and sat on their outside patio, overlooking the river. The server said any of the veg items could be made vegan. I got the coconut korma and it was yummy. Servers were very sweet and helpful. Will definitely be back.

Awesome Nepali Food! - Edit
All the dishes we tried at Annapurna were heavenly! Loved the Baigan Bharta, Alu Dum, and Coconut Vegetable Korma.So happy to find a vegan korma made with coconut milk. All their menu items can be veganized with coconut milk (I was also assured that there is no ghee, butter, milk ,etc in my food-- the staff knows what vegan means!) The roti is whole wheat and cooked in the tandoori oven. It's very tasty I recommend. It is also the only the vegan bread at Annapurna. The restaurant is located in the lodge and may be difficult to find the first time.

First decent meal I've had in Vail this trip! - Edit
Much needed Indian feasting. Got the dahl & the coconut veggie korma. The roti bread is vegan too. Not the naan. Next time I want to get the mo mos.

Vail veg/vegan options - Edit
Excellent food, vegan upon request! So Good, affordable (for Vail), and definitely will return! I was skeptical because of the location, but if you’re a vegan, you’ll get over the fact that it isn’t on the main square. Try it!

Lots of sneaky vegan options, just ask! - Edit
Amazing service. I was a little skeptical at first, but the staff (shoutout to Om!) did a great job of veganizing the menu. I was even surprised with a coconut milk version of the kheer for dessert! The spice level is customizable and the food is really tasty. A little bummed that Happy Cow won't let me give 5 stars. 10/10 would recommend!
Read morePros: vegan options abound!, very friendly staff, good food with real spice if you want it
Cons: hard to find...inside a hotel, small portions, not quite shareable, staff not always very attentive

A solid place in Vail - Edit
The old Vail has it's Jewel in Annapunra. Vegan options are plentiful. Had the Veggie Dumplings, and the Udon noodle, although not the Udon normal noodle, It was great food! Fast service, but watch out we had good water then another waiter came and that stuff we think was Chlorinated. Great Fast service.
Read morePros: Fast Vegan, tasty, Ready to modify dishes w/ coconut milk etc
Cons: Chlorinated drinking water maybe, opens at 4:30 for dinner not sooner :(, Walking distance to Vail Library -
