A
Vegetarian Dim Sum House
Get mocked all day long with dead-ringer takes on classic Chinatown specialties: fake ‘shrimp’ dumplings, spicy ‘spare ribs,’ sweet-and-sour ‘chicken’ and Hunan ‘pork’ are realistically created with ingredients like soy, wheat gluten and yams. For those not looking to recreate the meat they shun, straight-up options like asparagus with bean curd and spinach dumplings abound.

Counter
Downtown and Brooklyn are home to many veggie places and, while many come and go, delicious stalwarts include Counter. Order bar snacks like cashew-kalamata pate at this airy counter serving organic or biodynamic wines and microbrewed beers. Or sit in the roof garden and have some cauliflower risotto, grilled veggie napoleon, seitan steak au poivre or one of the yummy daily specials.

Cocoa V
Blossom, the Chelsea veg oasis, offers imaginative tofu, seitan and vegetable creations, some raw, all kosher. Desserts are so rich, you’ll swear they’re filled with butter and cream. With Cocoa V, a vegan chocolate-and-wine bar, the Blossom owners expanded their empire to further satiate sweet tooths.

Café Boulud
Even the most meat-heavy four-star restaurants are figuring out the lure of legume; the market-inspired le potager section on the menu at Café Boulud is one of the most highbrow and little-known veggie gems in town.
