"When you need to eat plant-based food beneath the sort of sparkly chandelier an ‘80s stockbroker would have placed in their foyer, grab a table at Anixi. A vegan Mediterranean restaurant from the team behind Coletta and Beyond Sushi, this is a glamorous place with white marble, green suede, and a menu that’s just as over-the-top as the decor. Try some caviar (made from seaweed), or grab a plate of faux-squid ink linguine with mushroom “scallops.” Keep in mind, everything here is also kosher and gluten-free." - bryan kim, neha talreja, hannah albertine, sonal shah
