BODAI 菩提 Vegan · Midtown • $99
Six seats, one doorbell, and a 9-course parade of rare mountain mushrooms: Bodai channels Qing Palace vegetarian cuisine through Chef Guo's forty years of craft. Ring the bell and surrender to the fungi.
HAGS · Manhattan • $$$$
Every course at this queer-owned East Village gem is art-on-a-plate vegan cooking that'll make you forget it's plant-based. Thoughtful pacing, house-made cheeses, and a joyful atmosphere that celebrates queerness as much as exceptional food.
West Village
Authentic Israeli street food where juicy shawarma arrives freshly shaved onto your plate or wrapped in laffa, plus crispy falafel and homemade salatim like hummus and amba.
Lower East Side
A whimsical soup counter serving slow-cooked, comfort-forward bowls with serious fans of the gluten-free cornbread. Four rotating soups daily, plus focaccia perfect for dipping.
Chelsea
Chef Guy Vaknin brings a vibrant, entirely vegan and kosher take on Mexican tradition to the Flatiron. Expect scratch-made salsas, heirloom grain tortillas, and a bar stocked with artisanal tequilas and mezcals.
Upper East Side • $$
Authentic Greek cooking that wins over Greeks themselves, from tzatziki made without filler to tender lamb chops. The warmth here is real—expect to leave feeling like family.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.

Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
