East Village Vegetarian Szechuan at Spicy Moon and More
Spicy Moon Vegetarian Szechuan serves East Village vegetarian Szechuan, like tofu kung pao, in a wood-accented room. Then try Salon Vert in FiDi, a Walgreens #21337 errand in Brooklyn and Choice Brooklyn's breakfast.


Spicy Moon Vegetarian Szechuan is a vegetarian Szechuan restaurant at 328 East 6th Street in the East Village, with wood accents framing an intimate dining room. Tofu kung pao uses tofu to mimic chicken, and peanut noodles and veggie dumplings can fill out the order. Generous portions suit a substantial meal with friends, and service is attentive.
