The Davis/Porter area is amazing for veg*ns! fidgetmonster, you were looking for "non-ethnic" but I'll list a few anyway because they're so good. I'm sure you'd enjoy the veg*n dishes at Cafe Barada on Mass. Ave. The mujedarra was a plain-looking rice and lentil porridge with great flavor.
Both Oleana and Gargoyle's made vegan dishes that weren't on the menu, and they compete for the best dishes I've had in Boston. Oleana's involved fennel, but it changes with the season. The Elephant Walk has a whole vegan section on the menu you can't go wrong with.
I wasn't elated by the Blue Collar Cafe listing all-vegan ingredients, then adding cheese, but that won't be a problem for you. Try the pumpkin curry at Martsa On Elm.
Johnny D's vegetable dish is a must-try. Christopher's chilli is very meat-like (TVP or soy? Not sure), in case you're sick of the tried vegetarian bean-based chilli everywhere else. Skip the stir fry and get the veggie burger instead.
For quick-foods, the Indian-run corner store near Diva has samosas to-go, and Star Market now carries refridgerated veg*n sandwiches including tempeh reubens.
Anyway, sorry for the repeats but consider them to be double-thumbs ups. Boston.com restaurant section has customer reviews with plenty more dishes to try. Enjoy!
