Opus - Salem

Why is this place even marked as vegan options on Happy Cow, is there literally nothing without animals??

As a salemite, I enjoy going to Opus. Many of their meals can be vegan / vegetarian and they have a valuable wine list. My husband and I often go here if we need a night.

Opus is a nice upscale bar with interesting drink options. They have a few vegan options (which are pretty overpriced), but nothing substantial. Their menu does have a “v” symbol but it is vegetarian not vegan. The bartender was really knowledgeable about how to veganize different dishes however. We ordered the hot n sweet peppers, falafel(which needs substitution to be vegan) and two drinks. I really liked the peppers which were basically a handful of chili peppers deep fried and tossed in sauce. They were good but super overpriced, we were actually joking about it. The falafel was okay, not traditional but the hummus that we got instead of the tzatziki was phenomenal. The drinks were great. Overall we paid a similar bill for a nice meal out in exchange for a few snacks, but we had a great time. We loved the atmosphere more than anything. I would recommend grabbing a couple drinks here and heading down the street to another spot for food. If you’re looking for a quick meal to go try boston hot dog co.

Loved sushi and cauliflower without buttermilk battery

Their menu is extensive, but their vegan options are very limited. But with what is said, her tofu court is absolutely amazing. I had it several times and it never disappointed. You also have great pommes!
