Serene Korean vegan restaurant transports you out of hectic midtown. Prix fixe multi-course dinner is way to go. Enjoy the first-pick Korean green tea, which you can't get almost anywhere else.
Gourmet old-school Mexican cuisine, since 1959. Offbeat location between 1st Ave & Tunnel Entrance Street makes it a neighborhood secret, and the locals like it that way. Superb.
Delicious Korean Vegan (bet you never expected to see those three words together), amazing teas (try first green), serene environment.

Farm-to-counter, fresh, and healthy choice of food with a fair variety, home cooking, what else can you expect from a dinner? I'm so happy that they chose a spot in this neighborhood.
Superb, sedate, gourmet Lebanese restaurant. The Brussels Sprouts are heaven. Order many small plates and share.
As far as I am concerned, it is the best Jewish deli in New York. My order never changes: piping hot matzoh ball soup, pastrami on rye, extra mustard, extra (full sour) pickles on the side, black cher

Funky Brooklyn vibe in Flatiron! Best iced coffee in NYC, fine salads and sandwiches, free Wi-Fi, amazing eat-in library upstairs.
Huevos rancheros are sublime: tangy, spicy. The guilt-inducing pleasure of fast food, yet made from healthful, fresh local ingredients. N.B. Weekend brunch menu differs from weekday breakfast menu.
Maison Thai also offers many health foods and strive to take care of our vegetarian and vegan customers just as creatively as the omnivores.
Best brunch in Manhattan. Fried egg sandwich and the egg white frittata are to die for. The coffee is also super nice and sourced by Brooklyn roasting company.
the 'shroom burger is the best thing here: bite into it and drown in cheese. wash it down with a lemonade

Great food but terrible service. Waitresses were unfriendly and ignored us the whole time. After we left one of them chased us down the street and asked why there was no tip. Ridiculous.
Tacos are the name of the game here, though, with options like the skirt-steak taco with pecans, crispy sweetbread with chickpeas and the Moroccan lamb on naan bread. Leia mais.

Want to delve into a traditional NY bagel? The fluffy bagels at this Midtown East establishment are not only delicious, but very cheap. Get it with some cream cheese and lox for the classic sandwich.
Since it's on the 39th floor it has expansive views of Manhattan. The atmosphere is fancy, but the prices are not terrible by NYC standards.
The food is excellent...the person who thought it was IKEA-like is an idiot. Perfect place for a nice, but not overly expensive lunch. I love the lingonberry soda and the cold water shrimp.
There typically is a wait at the cute brunch spot - especially if you want to snag a table outside, but it's well worth it. The omelets are amazing, and are all served right out of the skillet.
Yet another Curry Hill favorite. Tasty vegetarian Kosher Indian fare is pungently spiced, super-fresh, and (like everything in Curry Hill) bargain priced. Try the $11 lunch buffet.
One of our favorite spots to get a good pastrami on rye. Don't sleep on the corned beef though, it's mouthwateringly good.
This location, tucked away in Rockefeller Center, serves up the same delicious treats as the other Bouchons. The macarons get the most attention here but we love the Nutter Butter cookies!

I've heard the green sauce is made of the same ingredients as crack cocaine. I don't doubt it - seriously addictive.
Delicious lunch options, also a great place to grab cleansing and energizing pressed juices.
Oh, also try their kale mushroom turnovers. Savory and slightly spicy. Delicious!
Come to the sub shop in the Ace Hotel for breakfast and try General Tso’s Soft Boiled Fried Egg Sandwich. If you want lunch, try General Tso’s Tofu Sub.

With a $7.95 lunch deal that could almost feed two, head here between 11:00 and 3:30. We recommend the beef with green beans or the ma po tofu, and definitely go with the hot-and-sour soup!

Ask for one of their most exotic cheeses - the Gjetost. The dark brown color reveals a soft goat milk cheese with caramelized sugar. It is sweet and salty and unlike anything else!
It might sound weird, but the green tea cake is wonderful and perfect for any special occasion. Their sweets are not too sweet yet insanely delicious.

We had the best time there…all high tops, there with my girlfriend’s Mom, who is 85, and we all loved it! -Susan Feniger, Top Chef

Splurge on doughnuts that are a million times better than Dunkin’. You have to try the Tres Leches, the Crème Brulee and the Blackout Doughnuts. Cash only.
Soondubu (tofu soup) is so great! U can opt with or without meat in ur soup. Personal opinion, I'll opt without. After all, what they are good for, tofu right? Just haf a simple soup to taste the tofu
Best. Grocery. Store. Ever. Seriously people... If you can't find what you're looking for in this place, you need to quit life. I will say the people here are good looking. Must be the neighborhood.
We wouldn't normally start with dessert, but this can't wait. It's strawberry/orange blossom creme topped with honey-milk powder and cotton candy. It's beautiful...and it's topped with cotton candy. Leia mais.
Healthy not-really-Indian Chipotle-ordering-style fare that's pretty delicious and a great lunch option in this area.

Korean hipster fusion joint in NoMad opened October 2015 in space formerly occupied by Taan Thai. Within week of launch it had sellout lines at lunch halfway down the block. $7 meals thru Oct. 31.
Brunch destination. Food is excellent, but you need a reservation and the din (huge crowd, tiled walls) makes conversation tough.
Pappardelle has an awesome crunch that makes it gold. Great vego options. Pastas can be made gluten-free. Upbeat vibe and cosy decor and lighting.
The largest Korean supermarket in NYC. Check out their amazing produce and pre-marinated meats. Or, stop here before Norebang and stock up on Beer and Sochu.

An expansive menu with plenty of uncommon Indian regional specialties. Go for binda sasuralwali, "Okra you would eat at your in laws' house."

Wonderful South Indian veggie food in the heart of Curry Hill.
The biryani with saag paneer was light as air, not a bit greasy and insanely fresh (chopped red onions and cilantro for the win). Leia mais.
Enjoy vibrant party atmosphere at this 24/7 Cuban diner. Stuffed poblano pepper, the only vegetarian dinner option, is nothing special. But “black beans & rice” is solid, and deserts are to die for.
Vegetarian? The new vegetable BBQ is amazing! Many small plates of spicy, roasted vegetables, with unusual and delicious Korean seasonings. Beet-infused mashed potatoes! Barbecued brussels sprouts!
They’ve stopped making Ramen. It was a Ramen restaurant, and a pretty great one—the most authentic Ramen in NoMad. So they stopped making it. Who knows why? Also, there are no more vegetarian options.

Its a pre fix menu n its alot of food for 29.95. No meat but u won't even miss it. Must try it
Great food in Times Square? And vegan to boot? Believe it. 100% of profits go to charities helping sex workers get off the street. Reservation suggested.
