The best vegetarian Indian dish, is also vegan :) It's usually (ingredients differ from place to place) carrots, potato, some type of bean, cocoanut milk, green onion in a thick yellow curry sauce over jasmine rice.
In a vegan Indian restaurant I went to, it also had okra in it and celery. It's called curry. Just order vegetarian curry and they should understand what that means unless of course vegetarian pretenders who eat fish order the same thing and get fish in it. Better to say Vegan curry because the pescatarians ruined the true meaning of vegetarian for the rest of us, making restaurant people assume it's okay to serve us fish.
Anyway, you won't be disappointed with curry.

Vegan for compassion

Unlikely that it will be on the menu, unless it's a South Indian restaurant (which are extremely rare, but well worth seeking out) - avial - it sounds similar to what the other answerer described as "curry" - it's mixed vegetables in a coconut-based curry sauce. Ingredients vary throughout the world, depending on price and availability - but the best ones usually contain tropical tubers and snake beans. Come to think of it, you probably wouldn't see avial in a restaurant, as it takes a lot of time and effort to make it. You'd be better off making it yourself.

Ok - forget the avial and order masala dosa instead. I first tried this in a South Indian restaurant in Hong Kong, of all places, and fell in love with it. I had one just last weekend :)

If you can't find an Indian restaurant that does South Indian dishes, then order vegetable samosa and/or pappadams (with tamarind chutney for dipping) for starters; Kashmiri pilau (rice cooked with nuts and dried fruit), aloo paratha (flat bread with curried potato filling) and dhal makhni for mains. If you think you've got room for another main, go with a kaddu (pumpkin) curry.

Well even though it is more of a side, I will have so say naan. Its a seasoned flat bread that is just delicious!
