As a vegetarian, my choice of menu items is quite limited. Even most expensive or fanciest restaurants have no clue as to what vegetarians eat. My idea: Teach vegetarian cooking in cooking schools. Avoid restaurants where there are no or very few vegetarian selections. When the waitress/cook say, we can make that vegetarian-don't take their word. Often the improvised food is ridiculous steamed vegetables.All vegetarian serving restaurants may have a V (in the form of index-middle finger) signs in front of the restaurants or in their ad/logo

All other restaurants, of course, would have a hand with an extended middle finger.

I've found that most restaurants whose entrees are less than $8 learned how to cook on their own. If those restaurants put a V out front, the cook wouldn't no an oval from a lacto, or a vegen from a lactos intolerant. It takes some effort to know the differences and for minimum wage, it's not worth their while. Nicer restaurants know the difference and I often find quite enough to satisfy my hunger. One solid indication that a place spiked your food with lard is indigestion. Vegetarians usually don't get indigestion or heart burn unless someone has put animal fat in their food; or we eat way too much!
