Indian: Madras Mahal, Pongal, or any of the other 6-10 vegetarian, kosher Indian restaurants within a block of there
These are all either strictly or mostly vegetarian. Lots of other places, especially ethnic restaurants, will have at least a couple of vegetarian things on the menu. Try Afghan, Turkish, Thai, Indian, or Moroccan!
Many if not most of the dishes at Red Bamboo in Brooklyn (http://www.redbamboobrooklyn.com/) seem to be variations on soy schnitzel. The house soy chicken is soy schnitzel in bbq sauce, the Bourban soy chicken is soy schnitzel in that kind of sauce, the soy pork chop is soy schnitzel in an apple and raisin sauce, etc. Their "Death By Chocolate" is a pretty good chocolate cake, but not the drenched in chocolate mouse version we've enjoyed elsewhere. The music was too loud, but the wait staff were attentive.
Greek food is usually too salty for my restricted diet, and the two fish restaurants are a bit pricey. We've eaten at the City Limits Diner which is also owned by the Livanos Group, and for Diner food it's quite good.

One is kosher. Here they are:
1. Gusto Va Mare (Kosher): http://www.gustovamare.com/
2. Oceana: http://www.oceanarestaurant.com/ - Seafood
3. Molyvos: http://www.oceanarestaurant.com/ - Greek
Both Oceana and Molyvos are part of the Livanos Restaurant Group so they have one website.
