Default NYC Restaurants

There have been a lot of threads about various NYC restaurants lately, so hopefully there will be plenty of responses here. I'm basically sick of everywhere I eat in NYC. Some places I've just eaten at too much, and some I've just outgrown. So I want to hear about some new places. Here are the criteria;

1) I'm a vegetarian, and so are most of my friends. The place must have plentiful vegetarian options.

2) I'd like the places to be casual, I don't want someone to have to worry about what they are wearing.

3) Manhattan and Brooklyn only please.

4) I may eat at this places with El Diablo, and you know you want to impress him, because you are a bunch of asskissers.

Thank you.

Why did you include the citysearch link?
I noticed you included 2 vegetarian places. I basically know all the vegetarian places. I've eaten at Gobo and Kate's a million times. I'm looking for places that aren't fully vegetarian but still have stuff I can eat. My whole problem is that a lot of the vegetarian places a) get boring fast or b) just have low quality grub.

just because I was too lazy to post thoughts.

Ok, I reccomended Palmador on the LES the other day. It's across from Pianos and all those joints. It's a cuban place (vegetarian options); and it's real casual. They also have a damn good carne asada so El D should be content.

My pesci-vegetarian friend just rattled these off too:

Klong,
Angon,
Devi.

Pukk looks cool, I have never heard of it. Apparently there are still vegetarian places I've never been to. Thanks.

Candle Cafe doesn't meet your criteria of having meaty options (its all vegan) but the candle cafe cookbook is definitely the best cookbook I own.

A good example of what I'm looking for here is Josie's on the UWS. It is great for vegetarians but has meaty food, it is tasty, it is casual, and it is not ethnic. I appreciate the help but obviously I can figure out the Indian places on my own.
