Plant based food can be for everybody and we are here to prove it! These New York City restaurants go beyond bland veggie burgers + introduce you to a new way to seek a date night, GNO or even a weekend brunch. Eating plant-based or vegan doesn’t mean that you’ll leave the restaurant unsatisfied and feeling hungry – trust us, we went with a bunch of carnivores and they were pretty impressed. After checking out a few of these joints, we bet you’ll enjoy vegan food as much as we do (even though you’re only an occasional plant eater)!
