NYC vegeterians

For Vegeterian (Vegan actually), I agree with Turnipmonster, Hangawi is amazing. Best place I know of.

Ethiopian restaurants are great for Vegeterian. Upper East Side, The Ethiopian Restaurant is great and has a catchy name. West Side and Downtown Meskerem and Meskerem II are great.

I also eat a lof of Thai vegeterian food, but haven't found any great Thai restaurants in NY.

If you aren't going out to dinner early, getting into Red Bamboo could be impossible.
One warning- Hangawi is way more expensive than every other vegetarian restaurant on the planet.

very true, but in my opinion it's worth it! really great atmosphere/service.

I called them for reservations and they don't take reservations for the same day on weekends. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I work close by so I'm going to go there now and see if I can slip them a $20 to get on the list.

I see they're also open for lunch on the weekends so that's another possiblity.

I am vegetarian.

I just recently spent a few days in NYC.

Red Bamboo is IT.

As a former New Yorker I would have to say the best Thai food place I went to was in Brooklyn, right on Sheepshead Bay. They re-developed that area a few years back and opened an excellent Thai place along the strip (somewhere after El Greco diner). Check it out if you have a chance, you won't be disappointed!

(Note, while I'm sure they have vegetarian dishes - this is not a vegetarian establishment).

veg or not, avoid kittichai for thai. style over substance.

definitely Caravan of Dreams....... note that one of your posters mentioned it via a link.......i think it is on east sixth street or east 5th street great food and great atmosphere.........and note that Angelika's Kitchen is not that good.
