Vegetarian restaurants near Silverlake/Los Feliz

My boss is wanting some recommendations in the area and he's basically vegetarian - occasionally some fish, eggs/cheese ok.
Help me impress him with my chowhound resources!
Thanks!

Cru is wonderful... more than vegetarian, it is Vegan and also serves a lot of raw dishes. I am a complete and total carnivore and I love this place:

Fatty's is delicious. It's in Eagle Rock though - too far?

Flore Cafe on Sunset, near Dusty's and Descanso in Echo Park has delicious sandwiches.

But the cat's meow is A Taste of Life on Fountain at Vermont. It's nothing to look at, but they make delicious vegan food with all the flavor of non-vegan food. Dishes like "chicken sandwich" and "macaroni & cheese" are vegan, but are loaded with flavor.

There's also Truly, a vegan Thai restaurant on Hollywood at Bronson. This is decent, although I haven't been blown away.

And for Indian food, try Paru's on Sunset in Hollywood. This is a delightful vegetarian restaurant that can easily be vegan if you just tell them in advance. Excellent dosas, dahl and curries.

Elf Cafe is still there and the food is wonderful. Good vegetarian cuisine. It's the only BYOB I know of in the LA area. Their hours are suspect. Supposedly they open at 6 but it's more like 6:30-6:45. Still get there early because the place fills up quick. Bring a bottle of wine as well. You can always run across the street to Wine to the People if you forget.

Viet Noodle Bar in Atwater Village makes a good whitfish sandwich. They also have vegetarian options and I believe they make their own soy based drinks.
