Dragonfly neo-v cuisine, well known for putting Columbus on the map for fine vegetarian and vegan dining is opening a petite street food based counter next door to the restaurant ON THE FLY. The menu will feature global street food fare like empanadas, falafel, griddle cakes, philly ‘cheese’ steaks, noodle salads, seseame rolls, and rowdy burgers.
The menu will reflect Dragonfly’s commitment to using local ingredients some grown in the Dragonfly kitchen garden, like the chili peppers used for the ON THE FLY hot sauce, but the pricing will be very affordable with mostly everything on the menu UNDER $8. There will be limited seating and counter service. All menu items will be very much grab and go. Wine, beer, and other beverages will be offered like mango green tea iced tea and low tech cafe cubano shots.
ON THE FLY will open on Wednesday November 19 at 10am. ON THE FLY will initially serve limited hours Tuesday thru Saturday 10am -3pm and then 5pm until 7pm. Eventually ON THE FLY will be open continually from 10am -7pm Tuesday – Saturday.
Everyone is invited to come down for the unofficial opening. There will be plenty of samples and special pricing for the first week. ON THE FLY will also feature patrons favorite street food dishes from their native cities or country’s or from their travels around the globe.
This sounds awesome. It kills me to walk by the best restaurant in town every day, just a block from my house knowing I can’t afford to eat there all the time. It’ll be tremendous to have a more inexpensive & casual option.
this is great news!!
That’s all the excitement you can muster? I thought for sure you’d blow a huge granola wad over this news.
I am all about this. I’ve been feeling a void in my neighborhood since the taco truck closed for the winter. I’m glad to have something new and not ‘spensive in the neighborhood for easy dinner runs.
Saweet.
AMAZING! Another score for the Peach District. What is a rowdy burger?
I dunno but it sounds fun, eh?
Probably like a veggie burger laced with PCP.
Or something.

A veggie burger for Juggalos and OSU football fans.
I can’t wait to review this place. I have not been to Drangonfly since I walked in there with this old dude and we wandered around looking for some girl he knew, but we had to leave because I was drinking a can of beer in a bag. Good times.

also the steaks…

Is cheese whiz imaginary? that’s the original philly cheese steak sauce, you have to be from philly to get that. there’s really no good cheese steaks in columbus, so being that the dragonfly chef is from philly I’m sure he’ll create a damn good sandwich
Is the cheese imaginary?
also the steaks…
also your ideas about good food, Dragonfly is a nationally recognized restaurant veg or not, and there are plenty of chefs taking poetic license with the menu, so get over it and check it out

Wow, buddy. No need to get so touchy. It’s a legitimate question – a vegan restaurant advertising a cheese steak – neither of the keynote ingredients is vegan. Maybe some insight on how they’ve created a vegan substitute would be a better response then chastizing other people. You have a lot to learn here.
Sorry if we overlooked something, but we didn’t see it after reading through this thread twice and looking at Dragonfly’s online site. Where is this at? At the existing Dragonfly or is this somewhere else? Thanks. We’re looking forward to trying this.

Not to derail, but have you checked out this place?

It’s out in the burbs, but I have a friend born and raised in Philly that swears by this place. She said it’s amazing.

oh get over yourself, and get a sense of humor while you’re at it..
I have no problem making a vegetarian/vegan meal and enjoying it. In fact I often do. I also have no problem eating vegetarian out, and have done so in many places including dfly.
I know that vegetarian food can be flavourful and interesting..
smug self-satisfaction on the other hand tastes like shit.

just stating the obvious. being that the original philly steak sauce is cheeze whiz which is also a cheese substitute than the vegetable version is just a legit. the steak is in the eye of the beholder, like swordfish steak or tuna steak. so even steak is an open term.
i believe it is that the touchy one is not me. seems as soon as folks see a vegetarian restaurant using meaty terms they get a little weird about it even though other restaurants take many liberties with there menus but then not a peep from the audience :D

oh please, it’s not about veg or vegan until someone makes it so and then goes off on this ‘I occasionally have a plant based meal, so don’t tell me what’s up.’ the humor was there already, but one can’t laugh unless they get the joke.

No one wants to rehash the vegan/omnivore debate. What some people didn’t like was wargarden’s reaction to the slightest bit of humorous criticism.

Apparently you haven’t been around long enough to have seen the love that Rad Dog has consistently gotten for their vegan chili dogs on C/U.
It’s not that I wouldn’t eat a vegan philly steak…i just wouldn’t want to eat it with you.
