Red Lentil in Watertown Is Expanding to Sharon, Opening in Former Square Kitchen & Bar Space

A popular vegan and vegetarian restaurant in Watertown is expanding to the southwest suburbs of Boston.

According to a source, Red Lentil is getting ready to open in Sharon, taking over the space on Pond Street where The Square Kitchen & Bar had been, and before that, Pizzigando. A Facebook post from the upcoming location of Red Lentil said back in October that "We're opening a new location in Sharon in the coming months. We're just getting started, but follow this page (IG @redlentilsharon) to stay posted on updates as planning gets underway!" Once it opens, expect to find vegan and vegetarian takes on comfort food dishes, with the Watertown location offering such items as miso soup, nachos, pizza, paella, shepherd's pie, lasagna, and sweet potato fries.

Red Lentil first opened in Watertown in 2009.

The address for the new location of Red Lentil in Sharon is 1 Pond Street, Sharon, MA, 02067. The website for the original location can be found at https://theredlentil.com/

[December 6 update: According to a press release, Red Lentil has its grand opening in Sharon on Friday, December 10.]
