Veggie galaxy is great, but expect to spread out across many tables.
There was an indian restaurant we went to a few years ago when I hosted
a dinner at libreplanet, but I think they closed down and I can't find

There are also some sizable-ish Ethiopian restaurants in Cambridge I've
had success with.
