Being Vegetarian on the Street

So I'm a senior in college now, about to start work as an analyst in July 2019. I've been vegetarian my entire life, but I'm starting to wonder if this diet choice might affect a career on the street (IB, PE, etc.) down the line. Specifically, I feel like it might isolate me from others in the office when it comes to going out for meals or for client dinners.

Could anyone share any insight on this? Do you guys think this would be a significant deterrent to my career in any way? If it is, I would consider changing, but I would prefer not to if I can avoid it.
