Comfort food for veg*ns.
Restaurant, Bar
It is junk food for Veg*ns. They have philly uncheese unsteak, fried unchicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, and all sorts of Veg*ned diner food. Everything is available with a cheese alternative. Be prepared for a lot of deep fried items.
They also have brunch on the weekends.

Kate's Joint was exactly what I needed after a long day of walking around and dealing with the crowds and aggression of New York.
For one thing, the place is huge (by Manhattan standards) and I liked that I didn't feel like I was in a closet. I had room to stretch, and there's also a bar, in addition to a dining area.
I had a country-fried unsteak ($12.95) which consisted of perfectly-crisped and battered seitan, along with sides of green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, and a dollop of sweet potato mash. It was hearty, filling and well-executed. I wouldn't say the food is as good as Soul Vegetarian East in Chicago, but it was more than competent.
Kate's Joint also participates in the Mileage Plus Dining program, which was a nice perk.
