One of the good things about NYC is that the restaurant market is so competitive that shitty restaurants have a difficult time surviving. They have to be a bit expensive, because real estate is so valuable, so no one is going to pay premium prices for shitty food. Therefore, you can find something decent (including vegan food--especially in trendy Brooklyn neighborhoods like Williamsburgh, Greenpoint, Bushwick) pretty much where ever you are. If you can't find good food in NY, you really have to be trying not to.
