Paul and Elizabeth's, one of the early mainstays of vegetarian dining in Northampton and now 30 years old, draws people in for its healthy, thoughtfully conceived dishes even at a time when discretionary income is in short supply. "We notice people spending less but still coming," says chef Nate Sustick, the son of the restaurant's founders. Paul and Elizabeth's is known for its daily seafood specials, varied salads and house-baked breads and desserts, and though the cost of some ingredients is going up, the restaurant is holding the line on prices, still offering lunch from $7 and dinner from $10 to $20.
