Whole Foods is a great (expensive) organics store, with a lot of pre-made food as well. It has a rooftop restaurant and you can shop in the store and bring your food up to the top. Easy to reach on the bus, it grows a lot of its own vegetables.

Fonda
434 7th AveContemporary (upscale) Mexican cuisine. Very good.
Amazing stone oven fired pizza and great salads. Good beer selection. It's a bit of a sports bar, with TVs going, but it's not too distracting and you can sit outside.
