Vegan/Vegetarian restaurant recommendations?

Anyone have any recommendations for restaurants that have vegan offerings in the city? (if you have LI recs, please post them too for my future reference) Besides the Zen Palate. DH and I are probably going to plan a daytrip into the city and I want to eat somewhere new.

Thanks Chat Icon

If you can't live in NYC, you should try to make it out more often - I need someone who can appreciate the vegan goodness of Baby Cakes Bakery with me!

I have this bookmarked and I will surely be torturing myself by looking at their delicious options ever so sporadically throughout the day.

The cookie sandwiches look SOOO good Chat Icon Chat Icon

My favorite veggie places are:

Gobo
Candle 79
Candel Cafe
Vatan
Zen Palate

I also know of a lot of places that are "veggie friendly" so, if you want to tell me what kind of food/environment you want-- i can give more reccos.

I am looking for a dinner place that has vegan options (preferably one that is all vegan or that labels which options are vegan) that isn't too $$$ and has options that a meat-eater might also like.....

Ambiance is nice, but I am all about the food Chat Icon

I love Candle Cafe and Candle 79 - I used one of their recipes for my wedding.

Try also Angelica Kitchen (downtown) or Quantum Leap (in Queens). Both delicious!

Love Gobo

I have had desserts from Angelica's Kitchen, also good, I heard they grow all their own produce as well.

I am very familiar with Caravan of Dreams, on 1st and 3rd. DH and I are not vegans, but DH and my brother ran the place so we ate their often. Its vegan kosher.

have fun!

ok-- well, I am not vegan, but I know that Mexican works really well for all veggies, and then vegans can go sans dairy products..

Both on the UES
Rosa Mexicana
Canyon Road

Also-- tapas also works really well. I love Pipa on 19th and bway

And also Il Buco(East Village) is like italian style tapas-- as well as Gonzo (Lower Chelsea/sorta West Vill)which is fabulous-- they make gourmet pizza too, and have lots of small plates, salads and entrees.

Oh-- and Tabla Bread Bar-- on 25th and Mad.
