I am in LOVE with this place. Food and atmosphere is amazing. The staff is super friendly and instantly builds a rapport with their customers. Bathrooms were clean, service was quick. Food quality is unique and amazing. I’m from the DC area and we came to NY just to get Queens Comfort ! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Queens Comforts has been on my bucket list for years and we finally made up our mind to try when they announced their closure. They shortened their business hours to start at 5:00pm. We arrived there at about 4:30pm and there was already a long line around the corner. The menu was limited with only their signature options but we still had a difficult time to decide. The staff was friendly, welcoming and served everything in time. We had the Sugar Hill Beef Patty Burger, Truffle Mushroom Mac and Cheese, Atomic Fire Balls and Captain Crunch Chicken Fingers. The portion was great with reasonable price and we did a to-go with the leftovers. The food was overall amazingly delicious and appetizing especially for the Burger and Chicken Fingers. The patty was juicy and the brioche bun was soft. The batter layer of the chicken finger was crunchy and flavorful with sweetness. We might not have a chance to visit again but we felt so lucky to try before it’s too late.

My husband and I had a wonderful brunch at Queen's Comfort. This was our first time here and it was a cool experience. The staff was friendly, funny, and attentive. There was so many things to choose from on the menu. We settled on the Chicken and Waffles and the South by Southwest Benedict. We also got the disco tots. The decor was kitchy with old family photos, collectibles from your childhood...you just gotta go and check it out for yourself!

Came for brunch with my friends on Saturday. The place is crowded but the guy host was very welcoming and friendly. We had a good vibe while entering the restaurant. Service was pretty quick. We had couple of appetizers and entrees. The cheddar pancakes were too cheesy. When it came, we thought a pizza came because it looked like cheese pizza. Tots were boom. It was really good and fireball was also good. The chicken waffle was also good. Chicken was little dry and over cooked but with syrup it was good. The place was decorated very fancy. The clouds on the ceiling and toys were hanging around. The place was fully covered by toys and framed pictures. There was a live DJ and music was really good. I didn’t see liquor or beer menu but I saw people drinking alcohol in the restaurant. I guess it BYOB. Im not sure So ask the host or server before bringing your alcohol beverages. Overall we had a good time and we enjoyed our time in this restaurant. We will surely come back for brunch some other time.

Enjoyed everything we ordered. Nice twists on comfort food, our favorite was the captain crunch chicken fingers and the pecan crusted blue burger. Looking forward to coming back to take advantage of BYOB, I hope that continues at new space. Specials change weekly so try not to fall in love with photos you see on line. The good thing is that there will be something else that should be exciting to try. Pretty solid Mac and cheese. I was hoping for more from my French fries though I won't fuss much because the main course held their own.

American restaurant
S'MAC, short for Sarita's Macaroni & Cheese, is a cozy cafe in the East Village of NYC that specializes in customizable mac 'n' cheese dishes. The restaurant offers a variety of creative combinations such as the Parisienne with brie, roasted figs, shiitake mushrooms, and rosemary or the Masala with Indian spices.
Amazing Mac and cheese!! I ordered takeout and got the All American Mac and cheese and it was delicious! The Mac and cheese was soft and flavorful and the top had bits of crispy breadcrumbs — a perfect combination! There’s a kiosk where you can place your order. There’s indoor and outdoor seating, and the interior is very cozy! I will definitely come back to try their other Mac and cheese’s! Highly recommend this place if you’re hungry and ever craving for delicious Mac and cheese!!

If you’re in the mood for next level mac and cheese, look no further than S’MAC. I recently visited and tried their sampler, and it was nothing short of amazing! It is the perfect way to experience a variety of what S’MAC has to offer. Every mac was creamy, indulgent, and packed with flavor. From the classic 4 cheese mac and cheese that’ll remind you of the childhood favorite, to more adventurous options like the Alpine, which had Gruyere cheese and generous chunks of slab bacon. Every bite was pure comfort, but my personal favorites were the Parisienne (Brie, Mushrooms, Rosemary and Fig) and La Mancha (Manchego, Fennel, Onions) for not just their flavor but also for their unique flavors that I would’ve never thought to put together in such a dish. The mac itself was perfectly cooked—chewy yet soft pasta with just the right amount of cheese. I especially loved how they mix things up with toppings and seasonings that really set each dish apart. The portions were generous, too, which made the sampler a great value. The vibe is super casual and welcoming. The staff were friendly and professional. If you’re a mac & cheese enthusiast or just craving something comforting, definitely check this place out. You won’t regret getting the sampler, but trust me when I say you can’t go wrong with any of them.

~ Delicious Baked Skillet Mac & Cheese~ Freshly baked to order. Perfect portion. Great blend of bread crumbs and cheese. I will have to return to try other dishes. Interior is casual, almost like takeout place with seating but comfortable and laidback.

We love the delicious fresh baked macaroni and cheese from S’MAC. The wide variety of mix ins and assortment of cheeses is a true delight for all macaroni and cheese lovers. The staff is efficient, attentive and friendly with diners. They make sure the water cooler is filled and orders are making their way out to hungry bellies. We love the vibrant orange decor and the rustic wooden tables. It adds to the home cooked meal experience. The easy order tablets are very convenient for customizing your order for dining on or taking out. I was initially sad when the midtown location closed but I will gladly make the trip out to the Lower East Side for some of the finest macaroni and cheese the city has to offer. 💕 🧀

This spot really surprised me. You walk in, place your order at a touchscreen (super handy, no lines or pressure), and then just wait for a pot of mac & cheese to arrive, perfectly cooked! What I liked most is the flexibility: you can stick with the classic cheesy version, try it with meat, or even go for gluten-free or vegan. Prices are fair too. If you love mac & cheese you have to try it!

This place caught my eye on a walk, and I had to stop and try. They offer Mac and cheese, a bunch of different styles. I was surprised to see they had a small option, called a “nosh.” I was on my way to a real dinner but through Id give it a try. I placed my order at a kiosk, the all American with broccoli. I waited maybe 7 minutes, and they brought it out to me, didn’t even have to ask if it was mine. Mac and cheese came out hot, maybe too hot, right in the skillet. Despite the high temperature it was still fantastic. They even had ketchup on the table, which is a personal favorite condiment for Mac and cheese which everyone should try! Will be recommending this place to my NY friends.

Nestled within the vibrant Essex Street Market, Shopsins is a charmingly compact eatery that boasts an astonishingly diverse menu of diner classics. This beloved spot is renowned for its pancake offerings, featuring over 30 unique varieties and an array of pancake sandwiches that will delight any breakfast enthusiast. The culinary adventure doesn't stop there; you can also indulge in a plethora of egg dishes, bread-pudding French toast, and even matzoh brei with eight different flavors to choose from.
Great food and amazing service. We tried a variety of dishes and they were all delicious. It’s a bit of a wait on weekends so be prepared to wait. We went on Sunday around 12pm and waited about 45mins for a table of 4. I would recommend going with 2 people only. But the servers were amazing and the all the food was worth the wait.

We had an absolutely awesome time at Shopsin’s this morning for breakfast. We had the chocolate chip pancake balls, the banana bread pudding French toast, and the mac and cheese chorizo pancake - everything was delicious. Definitely try the mac and cheese pancake if you go, and try out their homemade hot sauce with it. Also the staff was unbelievably kind and generous. They went out of their way to make sure we were having a good time. Thanks everyone at Shopsin’s! It’s a new go-to for us when we’re in the city!

If you find yourself at Laguardia Airport, make sure to stop by Beecher's Handmade Cheese for a breakfast experience that stands out from the usual airport fare. Their breakfast sandwich is a delightful treat, featuring perfectly toasted bread and gooey cheese paired with well-seasoned chicken sausage. While it may take about 10 minutes to prepare, it's worth the wait if you're traveling early in the day.
Got the egg, cheese and bacon bowl. Good size, not too bad of a price ($10) and the ingredients were fresh. The coffee was strong and bitter, but good. The pastries are pretty big and cheap ($3.99).

Breakfast sandwich here is a cut above typical airport breakfast sandwich with great crisp fresh toasted bread, nice hot gooey cheese, and I like the spicing on the chicken sausage. It does take 10 minutes, but on the occasion I am inbound or outbound early on American I try and make the time for it. Cappuccino or expresso are solid, but not remarkable.
Barry N — Google review
Had one of the grilled sandwiches here during airport layover and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was - genuinely a very tasty sandwich, much better than eg a Starbucks equivalent. It came out pretty quick too - maybe 5 mins or so. The main issue with this place is that it is super expensive - sandwich was over $20 pre-tax and it was definitely not big enough to share. That said, if you don’t mind paying a lot (and I’m sure the alternatives nearby are also a rip off), the food here is worth eating
Robert C — Google review
The Chicken and Mama Lil’ sandwich was surprisingly good. Tons of flavor. Standard $14 airport sandwich which has all the filling in the middle and nothing towards crust. Buttery, toasted thin bread 👍. The comma after Flagship threw me off, it’s just their Flagship Just Jack cheese - Pimento Cheese vibes. Mediocre 12 oz Latte w 2 espresso shots - extra one is $2.99 (hello $0.99 Starbucks shots)!! Long line, slow service. Might come back for the sandwich but never again for the coffee. A good 10 min wait for the sandwich.

We celebrated our first wedding anniversary here with a lovely lunch. The appetizer, a bean-based sauce served with freshly baked bread, was incredibly nutty and flavorful. The fish for the main course was cooked in a Mediterranean style and was tender with deep, rich flavors. The service was outstanding.

We stopped into Avra Madison for a light bite and only ordered two appetizers — the grilled octopus and the shrimp. Both dishes were very fresh and nicely presented. The octopus was tender with a good char, and the shrimp were flavorful without being over-seasoned. The atmosphere of the restaurant is beautiful — bright, elegant, and perfect for a special night out. Service was attentive and professional, which added to the experience. That being said, the prices are definitely on the higher side for the portion size, so it’s worth keeping in mind if you’re just coming in for small plates. Still, for quality seafood and a chic Midtown setting, Avra Madison delivers.

Steak house

Restaurant
Delmonico's, a legendary establishment that first opened its doors in 1837, is often celebrated as the pioneer of fine dining in the United States. Originally starting as a modest pastry and coffee shop, it has evolved into an iconic steakhouse located in New York City's Financial District. Here, guests can indulge in prime cuts of beef alongside signature dishes that have become part of culinary history. Among these are the famous Eggs Benedict, created by Mrs.
7.6/10 The yellowtail crudo and crab cake actually had a flavor that reminded me a lot of Chinese food. The crab cake, in particular, was pretty unique: coated with shredded potato and deep-fried for a crispy texture. The sauce seemed to have pistachio in it, adding this nice nutty aroma. The steak was fairly standard but generous in portion. For dessert, we tried their signature baked Alaska, which had a sharp tang in the sour parts and was overly sweet in the sweet parts, plus the banana in it wasn’t to my taste. We also had the chocolate cake with ice cream, which had a rich dark chocolate coating and layered beautifully. But it became cloyingly sweet toward the end. The service was friendly, and the place is huge. You can totally feel the charm of a restaurant that’s been around for 200 years.

At first, the atmosphere was nice and well decorated. Food was really impressive. For appetizers, we ordered Yellowtail tartare, Kumamoto oysters, Caesar salad, Caramelized bacon and Eggs benedict. I couldn’t find any words to describe how great the food was. My brother said this was the best eggs benedict he’s ever had. For me I was impressed by Caesar salad, it was really good. For entrees, my family had Campanelle and Marinated black cod. I ordered Delmonico eye with grilled asparagus and hash browns on the side. This place is a steak house, so I don’t have to describe how good their steak was it was amazing I really enjoyed having my dinner here. Desserts we ordered Chocolate symphony and Delmonico’s original baked Alaska. The presentation was as amazing as its taste. For the service, the server was really nice and helpful with our food and drink decision. After we finished our food, we were expecting host to be more greeted or just say thank you, but we were a little bit surprised that no one said thank you, have a good night like other restaurants. But overall was great.

Yesterday I had dinner at Delmonico and it was an unforgettable experience. The restaurant has an elegant, timeless atmosphere and a fascinating history as one of New York’s oldest and most iconic steakhouses, dating back to the 1800s. We started with Kumamoto oysters topped with Osetra caviar, a luxurious and delicate beginning. The Caesar salad was crisp and flavorful, followed by the famous signature Delmonico ribeye, cooked to perfection and served with rich, savory mushrooms. For dessert, we enjoyed their classic cheesecake, which was smooth and delicious. Since we were celebrating our anniversary, the staff surprised us with an extra slice of cake, a thoughtful gesture that made the evening even more special. The service was warm and attentive throughout. If I had to mention one small detail, the bread and butter served before the meal were a bit dry and hard, but everything that followed more than made up for it. Overall, it was a beautiful dining experience filled with history, flavor, and genuine hospitality.

My husband and I had a nice birthday dinner here. Ambiance takes center stage at this iconic NYC steakhouse. Ceasar salad was good, nothing fancy. Bread basket is great. We got the Delmonico's steak and the NY strip steak and preferred the latter a tiny bit more. Do not sleep on the mashed potatoes side, they're some of the best we've had. Chocoalte dessert was good, and they surprised us with a small vanilla gelato birthday gift. Food was great, ambiance is stunning, service is top notch. Would come back for a special occasion anytime.

Reporting that the sourdough bread here is some of the best I've ever had. The baker must be praised. Wish he had his own bakery so I can purchase more of the bread. We tried the classic Delmonico ribeye. It was pretty decent. Big fan of the pommes puree and bread. dining setting was really nice 10/10- quiet, refined, but also relaxed. Great for special occasions. The baked Alaska gets lit up on fire.

While the restaurant was stunning and the food was delicious, I was left with a sour taste in my mouth around the end of my dining experience. Our waiter Angela gave my group several condescending looks throughout our dining experience and around dessert time started treating me and my friends with hostility, ruining our entire experience. However, to add salt to injury, when I paid for my check, Angela came back with an adjusted check, adding a $70 gratuity surcharge fee for no apparent reason. After being treated like peasants there was no reason for Angela to expect a tip at all, let alone the abysmal fee she decided to add on herself.

Great restaurant tucked away in a corner off Wall Street. Very old world, prohibition era charm and class. The staff was attentive and friendly, the food was delicious. I was recommended this place due to a missed flight and it did not disappoint. My steak, asparagus and crab cakes were cooked to perfection. The steak wasn’t over seasoned and the sauce was on the side to enhance the flavor not smother or hide it. I will definitely return and have to bring back my steak snob husband.

Cafeteria is a chic diner in Chelsea, Manhattan that has become a popular spot for people-watching and late-night gatherings. It has earned its reputation as a cool after-party destination, drawing in crowds with its trendy yet welcoming atmosphere. The diverse menu offers a culinary journey with options ranging from classic comfort food to innovative, contemporary dishes. Despite the hype, Cafeteria lives up to expectations by serving delicious food that caters to various tastes.
Had a nice last minute dinner here with friends. The Strawberry Rhubarb Spritz is delicious but could be a lighter. Maybe a bit more soda water to get it slightly more refreshing. The frozen cosmo is perfect. We had a smattering of apps that were all excellent. Beet salad with grapefruit? Genius. I never would have put those things together. One of the best burratas I’ve ever had, it’s so creamy and again, the addition of strawberry is unexpected but excellent. Mac attack is a staple. Add the spicy pepper from the deviled eggs on top before you bite so you can get some good heat on it. My turkey burger was the tiniest bit dry but delicious. My friends raved about their meals, a burger with a fried egg and the Cobb salad. The lighting outside was a bit dim, anytime we tried to move the tiny lamp to make room, we couldn’t really see our food but easily fixable.

It’s not really my kind of food, but honestly, it was really good! Creamy and rich—I totally get why people love it. The menu is very American, with some seafood and other options too. I asked if they had a whole wheat option for bread, but they didn’t. Only gluten-free or served in a lettuce leaf. Not a big deal, but it would be great to have that for people following an ADA-friendly diet. The food was tasty, not trying to be upscale or anything. A good spot for a casual night out goth friends 7/10

Excellent service and great food. Never had a bad experience here. I particularly like their shaved prime rib dip and their mint milkshake with oreo. Their Burgers, fries and fish and chips are all worth trying too. Bonus points for opening later in the evening too!

I had such an amazing experience at Cafeteria! From start to finish, everything was top notch. Our server, Atrice, was absolutely wonderful super friendly, welcoming, and full of great recommendations. We tried the Mushroom Toast to start (highly recommend!) and the Chicken Parm for our entrée both were perfection. The wild berry mojitos were the perfect touch refreshing, sweet, and beautifully presented. The manager on duty, Louie, checked in a multiple times to make sure everything was going smoothly, which really showed how attentive and hands-on the staff are here. The vibe, the service, and the food all deserve 10+ stars. I’ll definitely be back soon!

My first time visiting here and I see why my boyfriend was raving about this place!! Hands down a must try!!!!! Every single thing on this menu was amazing!!!! Christian was our server and he was amazing! I believe the bartender name was Chris or Brandon, either way he was the short, African American man with the beautiful smile & beautiful spirit. He catered to us because we only drink addictive-free, clean margaritas! He made some of the best margaritas we have had (and we are margarita connoisseurs 😉). We want those same two guys every time we visit!!! The crispy rock shrimp are seriously a must!!! The crispy enoki mushrooms were amazing!! The truffle oil Mac and cheese is always being ordered!!! We got the grilled salmon BLT (no bacon) and it was one of the best salmon sandwiches we have ever had!!!! The ginger salmon was cooked to perfection!

We recently dined at a charming spot and were impressed by both the presentation and variety of dishes. The evening started with a delightful selection of appetizers, including fresh mussels in a savory broth, served with hearty bread for dipping, and a vibrant beet and citrus salad topped with creamy goat cheese and microgreens. Each bite balanced freshness and flavor perfectly. For the entrées, the seafood pasta stood out with its rich, creamy sauce, plump shrimp, and perfectly steamed mussels — indulgent yet well-balanced. The seared salmon, served with broccolini, had a beautifully crisp skin and a flavorful glaze that paired wonderfully with the greens. The pepper-crusted tuna was another highlight, enhanced by avocado, crispy wontons, and pickled onions for a refreshing, layered taste. On the comfort-food side, the burger and fries were a satisfying classic. The fries, seasoned with herbs, were especially addictive, and the burger came with all the right accompaniments, including fresh lettuce, tomato, and a crunchy pickle. To complement the meal, we tried several cocktails, each beautifully garnished and well-crafted — the tall, refreshing fruit-forward drink was a particular favorite. Overall, the experience combined excellent food, stunning presentation, and a warm atmosphere. Highly recommended for a memorable night out!

Coppelia is a Latin-inspired restaurant with delicious food and great cocktails. The short rib nachos are a go-to, but the mojito is also very good. The service is excellent and it's open all day long, so it would be a good choice for late night supper. The dessert here is also decent, so give them a try!
I mean . I really had to take a photo after we starting eating because this place is so good. My bf and I work in the industry and decided to come here after we clocked out. Such great service and truly one of the best chicken and waffles ever. They have a homemade honey mustard and hot honey that is to die for. Totally worth it.

I came here for brunch because it was highly recommended. Service is good and the drinks were phenomenal. It's first come first served and even though my large party was late they were able to see us all together by the grace of gods. The food itself was just okay. The steak from the steak and eggs was basic. The chicken was really tasty from the chicken and waffles. The other dishes lacked some flavor which was a bit disappointing although they were good. I may return but mainly to try other dishes as this place was rated pretty highly by others.

This took me back to early New York. It’s set is the beautiful Cuban diner, with a classic diner touch and a Cuban flare. The food was perfection. I had the Salmon with purple mashed potatoes. My date had the Lomo Saltado. I had a wonderful Dulce De Leche milkshake and my date had the Sangria. I also had an oxtail empanada that was made like I landed in Cuba. The atmosphere alone would make you stay, but the food will make you linger. The Mojito is one of the best that I’ve had in the city. My new favorite spot.

Had such a delicious meal. We got Rabo encendido (oxtail & fufu) & mofongo con costilla (mashed plantain w short rib). It was my first time having mofongo and I’m not sure how to describe it but it’s potato-e and a little sweet from the plantain. It’s not like mashed potatoes mashed, it’s got Structure. The short rib it came with was so tender fall right off the bone. My favorite was the oxtail. The fufu was actually sweet and pretty soft more like mashed potatoes. The oxtail was tender and soaked up all the delicious sauce. Came out to around $40pp for one entree each. Overall 8.5/10

One of the best burgers in Brooklyn. Thick, juicy burgers cooked exactly how you want it. The sides are delicious and plentiful. I typically get the regular DuMont Burger, the smaller size, with onion rings and maybe soup if they have tomato that day. The DuMac and cheese burger is a good way to get a bit of the good stuff without buying a full order of the Mac. Smash burgers are on trend right now, and I don’t understand that. I love a thick burger, and I order medium rare because I am confident in the quality of their food.

Absolutely loved our visit to Vinnie’s Pizzeria! We tried the elote slice and the mozzarella sticks, and both were incredible. The elote slice was packed with flavor—loaded with sweet corn, creamy cheese, and just the right kick of spice. The mozzarella sticks were perfectly crispy on the outside, melty on the inside, and paired with their marinara sauce (which was seriously amazing) made them even better. The vibe inside is super retro and cool—definitely a fun place to hang out. Just a heads up, there are only three tables, so seating is limited, but honestly, the food is so good it’s worth grabbing it to-go if you have to. Can’t wait to come back!

The elote pizza is an interesting take which I got along with a slice of pepperoni but overall I found the slices to be just average. It really came down to the crust which while crispy just lacked flavor. Ok for a quick bite in the area but for pizza in NYC, you can do better.

Plenty of variety for every palate! It's best to come when it's not too busy, if you pop in on a Fri or Sat night expect a longer wait and alot of people hanging out front, the only negative imo. If youre in the area give them a try!

Absolutely excellent pizza slice. It’s like a Joe’s pizza but slightly less crunchy crust - therefore perfect. Easily in the top 3 slices in NYC. The topping is sweet and has good tomato flavour. The topping is not the most flavourful but the softness of the overall bite is brilliant.

Our waiter is friendly and makes good recommendation. Food came out quickly, tasty, and is great portion. For 3 adults + 1 kid, we ordered 2 entrees and 2 appetizers and it was enough food. The restaurant also offers a variety of Jamaican Soda and we enjoyed the ginger beer! Overall, an authentic meal in a relaxing vibe.

This establishment offers excellent food. We decided to try several items from the menu, and while some dishes stood out more than others, overall, the food was enjoyable. The service we received was decent, although there was an issue with the timing of our order. Surprisingly, our food arrived later than that of customers who arrived after us, even though we had placed our order before them. It's unclear how the kitchen operates, as this was an unexpected occurrence. Among all the dishes we tried, the curry goat and oxtail stood out as our favorites. Their flavors and preparation were particularly satisfying.

Great spot in Astotia for vegan food! The vegoist menu is all vegan but they also have a standard omnivore menu too. I only tried items off the vegoist menu. I got three tacos; the buffalo caulifower, BBQ seitan, and fried brussel sprout taco. My favorite was the BBQ seitan. It was so flavorful and was nice to have a seitan option. Tried the mushroom calamari for an appetizer and really like the creamy spicy dip that was served with it. For dessert got the tres leche baklava which was alright but I was expecting like a tres leche cake with baklava on top. It was more a slice of baklava with the 3 milks on top. Still nice for a sweet ending but not my favorite dessert. The atmosphere is really nice in the restaurant. There are lots of plants, great mood lighting and a disco ball. The service was a bit slow which is the only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5.

Schnipper’s is the perfect casual spot if you’re craving fresh, tasty comfort food without the fast food vibe. I’m watching my carbs, so I went with their “(Not So) Impossible Burger” on a lettuce wrap, and it did not disappoint! Juicy, flavorful, and topped with some seriously good caramelized onions. I added a fried egg and it was magnificent. My wife had the “Schnipper’s Classic Burger” and found it super satisfying. The fries were crispy and cooked just right. The location in the New York Times building is great. It’s roomy, airy, and the high ceilings make it feel nice and open. Service was quick and friendly too. Definitely worth a visit.

Beware…be prepared if you order medium rare for your burger, take a look at my pictures. When I bit into the center of my burger, it was cold and raw. Ticket even says medium. We took it to the grill manager, I guess, and they said this is the way it was supposed to be. I’m not eating raw hamburger which the reason I even questioned it was the taste. I like rare steak but rare hamburger taste nasty. What a disappointment! Not really more I can say, but beware! I had to argue with the manager to even get them to give me a new burger, but she declares that is the way medium rare is supposed to be, oh yeah ticket does say medium.

Only 2 female employees chatting with each other not acknowledging 2 customers walked in. So, we ordered from the kiosk. While we are trying to figure how to use it, more customers walk in and the get their orders taken by the girls who ignored us. Also, what is up with the smaller plates?

Lesson learned: don’t order a salad at a burger place. Mine was drenched in dressing—like someone accidentally emptied half a bottle on it. If you do get a salad, definitely ask for dressing on the side. I even tried to ask for extra lettuce to balance it out, but the staff didn’t understand and couldn’t help. To their credit, the ingredients were fresh, but the whole thing was inedible. I didn’t want to make a fuss asking for a refund, so I just picked out the chickpeas and tomatoes and called it a day.

Stop by for lunch or dinner and enjoy some delicious vegan eats!
Vegan food this delicious should be a sin! Seasoned vegan is my absolute favorite vegan place to eat. I have been a huge fan of Seasoned vegan since they were first located Uptown. Very happy that they are now located downtown in the East Village with late night hours. The service and food are absolutely amazing. My absolute is the BBQ vegan craw fish sandwich on the pretzel bun. The fries are delicious! Could not believe how amazing they are. The fries are a must. The best tasting fries. Could not post a photo because I snorted those fries before I could take a pic… Last but not least.... the cupcakes. The lotus biscoff cupcake is highly addictive not sure what's the ingredients, but they taste so delicious and they are vegan. All I know is, I can't get enough of them. They are my absolute favorite. Special thank you to Chef B, Aaron, Anthony, and all of the wonderful staff that makes Seasoned Vegan a special place to eat healthy, great tasting, soulful vegan food!

I saw this place years ago when they were in Harlem. Had I known back then the food was going to taste as good as it does now, I would have tried vegan food much sooner. Mindset and Hindsight and all... This past February, I had the chance again and ordered takeout and sampled a few item's my family and I ie. Collards, mac, Fried Bayou Bites "crawfish" nuggets (sauce on the side) & SV nuggets. EVERYTHING was good. The "crawfish" texture was spot on. I was amazed. I eat burdock root so it baffled me how this was done. The family loved it. They continue to order from here to this day since it's closer to them. I would love to see a Harlem location again.

Ordered Deliver on Tuesday night 11/19/24 The order arrived late, delivery bag unsealed, and several items with no lids on them. Lids were MISSING. The nuggets were hard as rocks. Missing the Mac n chz side along with another side of fries. The whole order looked liked it got thrown together by a toddler. Everything cold. Didn't eat anything of this playpen disappointment. Photos are to show how much they charge for a kids size salad. $8 for a tiny scoop of salad. The size of a side of fries...I think I count 15 fries total. I have a can of soda there so you can see the sizes and compare. The last photo is of the lemon "nuggets" that are just tiny fried bits nothing. This whole thing is a disaster. You need work.

This was a lovely space to walk into my first night back in the city. An absolute treat to eat in a 100% vegan restaurant with almost every ingredient created in house. The creamy cheesy sauce on the broccoli was so scrumptious!!! I highly recommend! The mud pie with vanilla ice cream was absolutely yummy. Very filling and satisfying. Everyone was warm, kind, friendly, and gracious. It was a very welcoming experience and I hope to return soon. Lots more items to try!!

The vibe inside was artsy, welcoming, and fun. We were greeted upon entering. Immediate pluses!! Food was delicious. I ordered the Golden Era Chick-un & Waffles and my partner ordered something I forgot the name of, but it was a faux salmon sandwich I believe. I also ordered a drink which may have been the espresso yourself. Either way, we enjoyed our food and drinks. Would definitely visit again! *Another thing I appreciated was the attention to allergies. We were asked about allergies when we were placing our orders.

This place features a unique style atmosphere. Sort of gothic/punk vibe. The service is not very good. One waiter was very polite and professional, while the other waiter was not nice/. She wouldn’t let us sit in the party of 4 table because we were a party of 2 and wanted the extra space, even though we were the first customers in and the restaurant was empty. Other than that, the food was below average. I ordered french toast and my uncle ordered the burrito, which he did not enjoy. The music was a little on the loud side. Some things on the positive side were that the 2nd waiter was very polite and professional.

Was in NY to catch a play at the Shed so walked over here afterwards for lunch. The interior decorations definitely make you feel like you are in an urban city. The music is also adds to the ambiance. They have a good sized menu with many sub menus that show gluten free items, soy free items and garlic and onion free items. I ordered the gf coconut shrimp, the mushroom asada and the respect your elders mocktail. The food was tasty. The konjac shrimp are hard to find so generally when I see them on a menu I order them. I did hesitate a bit as I’m not a fan of coconut. Luckily for me I didn’t taste any coconut on the shrimp. The mushroom asada, while delicious, it didn’t give me the flavors of steak. I think a portobello would have done a better job. I ate it all though. Just mentioning in terms of what your taste buds should expect. The respect your elders mocktail was yummy.

We popped in for a quick brunch while nearby and were very impressed with what's on offer! The venue has a lot of personality and it was great to see the owner wasn't above helping out – providing service alongside one of his staff members and making polite conversation. We went with: -The Get Right Within Burrito (with added tempeh bacon) -Luca Brasi Oshi Salmon Pasta We were extremely impressed with the quality of the food for the price. If you haven't had Oshi Salmon before, it's by far the best salmon alternative we've found in terms of realistic flavour and texture. Genuinely mind-blowing. We'll certainly be making a point of returning if we come back to NYC, and we definitely recommend making this place a must-visit on your list!

Murray's Cheese is a must-visit spot in NYC, offering an array of delectable cheese plates and sandwiches. The grilled cheese counter at Murray's Cheese is particularly renowned for its signature Murray Melt, featuring a delightful blend of New York cheddar, fontina fontal, and red-wax gouda sandwiched between slices of Orwashers sourdough. Additionally, the shop provides top-notch packing and delivery services for those who want to enjoy their premium cheeses at home.
We went in here mainly to try their famous Mac and cheese. It takes a while to get the dish ready but we felt it was worth the wait after tasting the yummy Mac and cheese. They also sell various types of cheeses, charcuterie boards and other daily groceries.

I love cheese and came here for a cheese-making class. The group was small and intimate, which made for great conversation and a relaxed vibe. I learned a lot and got to make burrata with a very knowledgeable and patient instructor. We had plenty of cheese samples and unlimited wine refills throughout the class. You also get discounts in the shop afterward, which is a nice bonus. Highly recommend for any cheese lover looking for a fun and hands-on experience.

8/9/25: Wow, what a great time at the Mozzarella Cheese Making Class! Caroline was an excellent expert instructor. We had ten family members in attendance. Some housekeeping, suggestions: 1. The class description says two balls of Mozz. In reality it was only one per person. 2. The wine pours were great but maybe a bit too fast on the refills (a personal issue, I know). The cool temperature of the room was great too. Beautiful store.

Such a cute spot! We tried their classic grilled cheese and a side of tomato soup. The grilled cheese is delicious, the cheese pull is insane. The tomato soup is good but a bit thinner than I expected. Overall, it’s really good and very filling. A bit pricey for just a sandwich but delicious nonetheless!

Had a free evening and decided to try out a cheese & wine tasting class. It was the best decision I’ve ever made! Our instructor Anne-Marie (or was it MaryAnne?) was friendly and knowledgeable. She gave us so many insights into gastronomy and answered questions (even the silly ones too) in ways everyone felt comfortable. I just wish that there would be more cheese and wine pairings to try and discuss over, and I don’t even mind paying more for it, but obviously I get how I’m biased because I’m a huge nerd and eater.

Ordered Buffalo Chicken Mac, a Pastrami sandwich, and 2 cups of tap water for myself and my son and sat at the window bar. The food came, but the Mac had no chicken in it, so we found a very nice man who was stocking the coffee bar and he took it back to the kitchen to find the chicken. Meanwhile, my son went back to the cashier to get the water we ordered. The cashier (a different person) told him told him they dont have tap water. I then brought the receipt up to him to show him we were paying customers at their cafe and would like the tap water we ordered with the previous cashier. He insisted that they couldn’t give us tap water. I said “so your fully functioning kitchen has no tap water and apparently no chicken.” He then told me the chicken was in the Mac, I just couldnt see it, it was shredded and invisible. At that point, the nice coffee bar guy came out with the Mac — with chicken we could now actually SEE — and I kindly asked him for a cup of tap water which he delivered within 10 seconds. WAS IT REALLY THAT HARD?! In the middle of summer, you wont give a cup of tap water to a paying customer (WITH A CHILD) at your establishment. How insane is that? This guy should be in the back working with products and not customer-facing because he has zero hospitality.

Root & Bone offers an elevated take on Southern cuisine, with barrel-aged cocktails and craft beer served in a cozy rustic setting. The restaurant is known for its refined yet comforting country grub, particularly the brined and pressure-fried bird that's topped with dehydrated lemon and dill, and served with bourbon Tabasco honey.
Food was delicious, came out in a decent amount of time, wait staff is friendly and helpful at making suggestions. There was plenty of food, enough for leftovers to take home. The deviled eggs are the cutest, no idea how they make them so pink. The mac and cheese was the only reason I came after seeing it all over Instagram for years and I finally was able to make my way down to try it for myself.

The Restaurant Week brunch is $29 per person and SO WORTH IT. You get biscuits for the table, an appetizer, mac n cheese and watermelon for the table, a main dish and a dessert. So. much. food. The deviled eggs for the appetizer might be the actual best thing I had. Who knew? Highly recommend. The dill and potato skin crisp thing on top really round them out. And the biscuits... oh my goodness, they transport me right back to the south but add a twist that I've never in my 22 years of living in Alabama had. If you don't go for restaurant week, you still MUST get these. Our main dishes were the chicken and waffles and the biscuits and gravy because, duh, more biscuits and more carbs. The chicken was cooked perfectly - not too overly crispy, not at all greasy, and a thick piece of chicken, exactly how I like it. The banana pudding wasn't my favorite (Alabama still wins there) but it was still solidly good. The key lime pie dessert was really tart but actually really good. The presentation for every single dish was beautiful. I love a place that truly cares about putting out great dishes that look just as good before eating them. Only reason this isn't a five star rating is because the hostesses were quite rude when my boyfriend and I said we didn't want to sit at the table by the dumpster outside (that had tons of flies all over it).

With great southern style food and a charming environment it's hard not to like root and bone. When you walk in, it feels like you've left nyc. The place gives off a rustic feel and has the food to match...with a twist. We got the shrimp and grits and the short rib meatloaf. Both great. They both had a little extra beyond what you'd typically expect. The shrimp and grits had more levels to it. The meatloaf was actually pull apart short rib meat. Drinks were solid too.

Finally got round to trying this out for brunch, and it didn't disappoint. Such a nice interior, good ambience too. The biscuits we had with Jam and was so well done. My chicken sandwich was huge! But very well cooked, wasn't dry at all, and you can add your own amount of pickles/jalepenos etc. Give it a try!

Love love love this place. Came here for brunch. It’s a cute restaurant with AMAZING FRIED CHICKEN. We ordered a whole chicken (off the menu) to be shared for the whole table. Their biscuit is to die for. It was soft, moist, and a bit crisp on the crust. Just the perfect balance. Would definitely come back to get a southern food fix!

Amazing amazing brunch. The biscuits are incredible and you can’t go wrong with your order. They don’t have espresso though so get some first if you’re hungover. Their drip is good but won’t resurrect you. All I ever want is good bacon, bread, and maybe a salad to pretend I’m not getting heart disease and boy did they deliver.

The food was great! Mushrooms were the best and most that I've ever had as a side. The Mac and cheese was the biggest let down. I was expecting soul food and a homemade (from scratch style) mac and cheese. Chicken was tasty. Service was lovely. I would definitely go back.

Their food is delicious and they have one of the best biscuits in New York. However, their service was not so good. We have visited 3 times already and we all had unsatisfying service experience, so we won’t come back even the food is great. The first time, they had the wrong dishes for our order. We told them we are fine with it but they did extra charge for that dish without informing us. The 2nd time there, we would like to use the voucher we bought online with a group of 3, but they refused to redeem even we had extra order of entree, not only side dishes or appetizers, so we ended up making single orders without using our voucher. The last time we went, they refused to do redemption again and mentioned the voucher is for dinner only since their chef weren’t there until dinner time but we just saw a table from other customers with all the dishes on the voucher. We understood they were just following their policy but if they could be more flexible or with better explanations to us, everything will be perfect.

Loved this bar. The daily specials are amazing. They also have everyday Happy Hour. I went on a Wednesday. They had the Sandwich special, which includes Smashburger. That's $10. On Wednesday they also have $10 Lost Irish Old Fashioned. It was a great deal. They have a good beer selection. I also got the fries with the Burger. The fries were a $5 addition, still a great deal. The Smashburger was delicious and the fries were some of the best I've had. They were crispy outside and the inside was like mashed potatoes. The presentation is appealing. The bartender was very nice. I would definitely come back.

Stumbled upon this place unintentionally and what a joy! Super kind and helpful service, good beer and cocktails and the food is delicious and reasonably priced.

This is a fun neighborhood spot. We got the cheese curds, but all their bar bites/appetizers looked delicious! The cocktails might be a bit overpriced considering the quality of their ingredients, but the happy hour deals seem good (they only offer happy hour Monday-Friday). My primary issue was the service, but since there were only 2 servers when we went, so this may not be a typical issue.

Visitors rave about the perfectly grilled sandwiches with crispy bread and melty fillings, particularly praising the Mac n Cheese and Little Italy options.
Easily by far one of the best tomato soup you’ll find in New York and for a fair price. For only 3.50 you can get a cup and for 5.50 you can get a bowl! It’s got a nice little spice to it as well. The service and setting are a perfect combo to accommodate. Will definitely be returning here very soon.

Came here with a buddy of mine. He said the food is great but pricey. I agree! And with the amount we paid, it was a very little serving. At least give some potato chips out with the sandwiches. Or how about a side of tomato soup to go with it? Great spot & quick. Just too pricey for what they're giving.

It’s a really wonderful spot for lunch. Here’s a picture of the crispy goat with French fries - that’s goat cheese, bacon and avocado. As you may be able to see they serve it with a lot of French fries which is nice. Comes out super crispy and hot. It’s terrific and so is the spicy tomato soup. The space itself is open to the street and there’s a little bar by the register as well.

You’re doing yourself a great disservice if you walk down the street muttering: “This place looks cool!” without stopping in to try.

If you’re on the fence, don’t be. Go. Thank me later.

Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese Tomato Bisque Complimentary Olives Italian Grilled Cheese Sweet Potato Tots All food was delicious and fresh. The cheese was perfectly melted and the bread had a nice crunch. Soup was tangy and creamy. Tots were crispy and slightly sweet. We will definitely come back. It is a little pricey for grilled cheese but the ingredients used were good quality. Decor was interesting and staff was friendly. I would’ve given this place 5 stars but the restroom was awful. The floor was wet like there was a busted pipe and the toilet seat is so close to the wall you cannot hover, much less sit because there is literally no room for your knees. You’d have to come in and sit from the side. That is just a big no. Put in a smaller toilet and/or remodel your bathroom. Myself and 3 other customers went in to use it and immediately walked back out.

Harding’s is a spirited pub that serves some very decent food. The inside design creates has a great classic bar feel and there is outside dining. I was impressed with the quality of the food and ordered the beef short rib. It was tender as you would expect and service was efficient. Servers paired the short rib well with a class of cabernet. Rather than my preferred one large ice cube the old fashion had smaller cubes of ice, but still balanced old fashion flavor.

Great bar and night scene. The later it gets, the busier. The bar itself has a huge hanging out space so you're not on top of one another. Very chill vibe and can be a romantic spot if you choose (albeit a little loud between the music and people). Perfect for an after work get together or a night out. The dining room is very spacious as well, there's even a second floor spot for a private group if needed. Must try the grilled octopus and cheese plate. Generous portions to boot.

By far the best experience I've had in a long time with a progressive menu! The sliders are the best sliders I have ever eaten! They were so good that I decided to get the burger! The burger was awesome and is in my top three burgers of all time! The fries are so good that you'll eat until there are no fries left!! Dessert was a classy mango sorbet! This restaurant was great just because of the food that the Execute Chef prepared, but the manager, all the servers and house staff rendered superior service! For this quality of food and service you would expect to pay an absorbent price! But for a three course meal with a refillable coke, it was under $60! This is a top-tier American food restaurant that should have a spotlight on all top ten food reviews in NYC and across the nation! Great service!

Great wings at this spot - perfectly crispy yet juicy! For the most part, pretty sizable as well. A few were small but they preemptively addresed the issue saying as much and they’d add extras - all good! And I love they have so many varieties of rubs and sauces. I just wish I didn’t have to choose just one for an order of 12, though the one I picked, Nashville heat was excellent. But along with the onion rings which were also excellent great, it was a rather filling meal so would probably go with fewer wings on a return visit.

Small little spot but definitely worth it. Not a lot of seating if you are looking to eat there but I did take out and it was so good. I got the Tandoori wing lunch special which was really good. Tandoori is a dry rub that had a little heat but wasn't overpowering at all and thay it coming from someone who cannot handle heat. Definitely get your fries dusted. I went with the lemon pepper and it was delicious. The star of the show was definitely the chicken birria quesadilla. IT WAS AMAZING! You cannot come here and skip this it really is thag good.

We've been ordering in from this place frequently, but I was curious to experience the ambiance and savor a fresh, hot sandwich in-house. Regrettably, it's not a dine-in establishment, but the food is simply extraordinary. The wings are a standout, with flavors like garlic parm, chili mango, and black pepper teriyaki that were all exceptionally delicious. Alongside the wings, we indulged in two sandwiches; the BBQ fried chicken sandwich was a succulent and crispy delight. If you are in the neighborhood definitely try their food. You will not regret it.

I eat wings often so I think my opinion might be useful. My opinions on the wings: the classic is pretty standard, nothing special but it's not bad either, the garlic parmesan wings are delicious but I tasted more butter than garlic, honey mustard is good and taste like what you expect, BBQ wings also taste as expected. The bacon cheese fries are amazing, the macaroni and cheese is good. Service is lovely, and the staff is kind honestly no complaints.

The small space mostly caters to takeout orders, but it offers comfortable seating for those who want to dine in. Visitors have praised the delicious and cheesy mushroom mac 'n' cheese with a hint of spice, as well as the light and tasty margarita mac.
Amazing Mac n cheese!!! I’m from Wisconsin so I’m very picky when it comes to Mac n cheese. Macbeth did not disappoint. I got the mushroom one and it was very cheesy!!! It had a little bit of spice which I wish I knew beforehand so I would have either asked to make it without the spice or would have gone with the classic. Despite that, it was still very delicious. Next time I’m in NYC I’d love to come back and try some of the other ones on the menu. The space itself is small and we were the only people there. It’s all yellow and has a cool design but it is small with only few tables for seating. They didn’t have cups of water, you had to purchase drinks so that’s my only complaint about the place.

The service was underwhelming at best. Very transactional feeling to the business. About 10 people can sit inside at most to eat. Probably better for take out. They told me to expect 15’min for prep. Took about 15-20. Pretty standard. The food: I got the mushroom Mac and cheese - again, not overly impressed, but not bad. very “alright.” Decent spot for a quick-ish bite, especially a salty/savory/cheesy bite.

Amazing random find while walking around looking for dinner. Had to stop in because who doesn't love mac n cheese?? Small but cozy shop with comfortable seating. Took about 15 minutes to prepare, but completely worth the wait. I got the margarita mac, it was delicious and light. The medium size was a good dinner portion for me. The dishes were mac n cheese themed, which kept the food hot but allowed you to handle without worry. The plasticwear had an interesting design were they clicked together for storage. Overall the food and atmosphere were amazing and I'll definitely be going back to try other mac n cheese combinations!!

15-20 min wait so if you're hungry order in advance! Definitely worth the wait, super cheesy and full of flavor. I had the margarita wasnt disappointed. 10 stars if I could. Thank you for making my 1st time there a great experience :)

Takes a long time. I got something ~*different*~though so I guess they just made it fresh which is nice.. but don't expect to be in and out of here in twenty minutes with your food if it's not just plain Mac and cheese. I had the corned beef Ruben themed Mac. I actually didn't like it. It was kind of nauseating but someone else got the same thing and loved it so I guess that's just my personal opinion on it. I could barely eat it. There's space for them to put a couple more tables to accommodate a few more people so I wish they'd add extra seating. A ton of places to sit but no where to really sit AND EAT. because it's weird to just sit in the space between people with no table and eat next to them (but I did it anyways)

This is a second Mac and cheese style eatery I have visited In last month and this one fell little short compare to the other one. First the siting area is small so it's more of a take away style place and that's ok but the area was messy, tables were not wiped, napkins on them and on the bench style seat. The employees seemed more into talking to each other also they were not busy at all. Now for the food I ordered lobster Mac and cheese and you can tell from the picture the lobster was sprinkled not lot of it. What lobster you did get was rubbery and lacked flavor but the cheese was good. You get your food in aluminum bowl so don't expect much presentation also using these bowls you really don't get crispy edges you expect from baked Mac and cheese that is made in cast iron pans. Will I eat here again maybe if I'm walking by and can't find anything else, will I go out of my way? no! you have better choices in the city for mac and cheese.

The Brooklyn Star is a cozy spot in the neighborhood, offering a mix of classic Southern comfort food and unique dishes like fried pig tails. Unlike many other small restaurants in the area, The Brooklyn Star provides ample seating for its guests. The menu features comfort food with a modern twist, including options like country-fried steak and apple johnny cakes. For brunch, patrons can enjoy cocktails such as the Gordons Breakfast or Bourbon Bonbon.
We had a great Mother's Day brunch. One of the few places that accepts reservations for large groups for brunch. The staff is great and patient (I had my 3 young children with me). The drinks were great...highly recommend the sparkling cocktail. And the food was great. The lumberjack breakfast, shrimp and grits, and the chicken and waffles were really good. Definitely get the biscuits, they have to be the best in Brooklyn.

Came for brunch when literally every other place in Brooklyn had a 1.5 hour wait. Here was only a 30 minute wait but we ended up getting seats at the bar. The chicken and waffles were SUPER good and I loved the grapefruit with it adding a fresh/sweet touch as the top had a sugar glaze. Drinks were pretty pricey so It’s not your typical bottomless place BUT would definitely come back just to try more food. Also pretty cool/chill atmosphere with good music

This place was a pleasant surprise. Somewhat of a hidden gem of Williamsburg. Had the Mac n cheese pie with Texas toast n it was amazing. Couldn't finish it all though. The Mac and cheese came on a hot skillet by the way(nice presentation). It was roughly about $20 per person including drinks. Definitely giving this place big thumbs up. S/N: They don't skimp on alcohol. Got a Jim Bean with ginger ale n it was strong but great. Oh and I forgot to mention that there is Kool-Aid on the menu... Just gonna let that soak in lol

Beatnic Vegan Restaurant in the Fashion District offers a variety of fast food options for those on a vegan diet. The Classic Burger and Air-Baked French Fries are popular choices, along with sweets and salads. The Club sandwich is highly recommended, accompanied by flavorful chipotle aioli. Additionally, the Caesar chicky wrap is a tasty option that can be spiced up to personal preference.
We had a great experience. Good customer service and the food was delicious! We tried a variety of dishes between the four of us. Two thumbs up! Loved the Mac and cheese!

First off this place is 100% VEGAN!! I had a “BCB” burger & fries & a mandarin iced tea. The burger was surprisingly filling! The mouth feel on the burger was surprisingly good. The flavor & consistency was what I expected for mashed lentils.. I had an order of half/half Fries also. They came unsalted which was a nice change of pace and the sweet potato fries were obviously more flavorful. My issue was that they didn’t come to me hot. I know it’s 4:30pm on. Wednesday and its empty in here but hey. I’m sure they’re hot at lunchtime. Young lady behind the counter was the BEST! Helpful knowledgeable & super kind. Closing out, I have to say that I feel great about the whole experience and will surely be back. PS - good rewards system also! I received $5 off my first purchase. A GR8 truly vegan bang for the buck.

A clean Vegan spot in the fashion district to get food at. I had the saucy Buffalo Wrap at it was an average wrap, nothing great flavor wise.

I had the delight of eating here the other day, and it was absolutely delicious! I decided on “The Club” as you see in my photos, it was beautifully made and really filled me up! Everything I wanted in a sandwich and fries. Their chipotle aioli was also very good. A little kick without it being spicy. I personally didn’t care for the beet ketchup as it was kind of sweet, but I’m sure others love it. Keep it up ! 10/10 will definitely eat here again !

Super disappointing Nashville Chicky Wrap. Flavor was overly sweet, “Super Crispy Jackfruit” was not even crispy at all… more like soggy, and seemed super processed rather than whole food based, plus there wasn’t a substantial amount of it in there. Cheddar chz was not absolutely horrible but not worth eating to me at all. Ordering is awkward choosing between self ordering kiosks or a non enthused cashier. Glad I got the fries so I had something to enjoy but the chipotle aioli was sweeter than I’d like as well. Now I see this is the reinvented byChloe whose flavors I never enjoyed either.
Kate R — Google review
This spot is SO good. I got the Caesar chicky wrap. Definitely could use a bit of “spice”, so I used some Cholula, but overall it was an amazing meal. I was working from the WeWork up the street, and it’s a quick 4 min walk, plant based goodness, and walked it back. Overall 10/10. Definitely would recommend if you’re in the Times Square area. If you’re looking for a sit-down sort of fancier spot, this is NOT IT. But a great grab-and-go spot.

This restaurant is very vegan. Vegan lobster rolls. The ketchup tasted like cranberry sauce. I had a falafel. It cam as a wrap. The actual falafel balls were delicious but the accoutrements were just ok. The fries were no big deal. Healthy I guess. This is a restaurant for the die hard vegan.

First of all, this location with all the restaurants is awesome. So many options and easy to order from anywhere. Second, Jacobs Pickles is unreal. Sandwich is enormous so you may even want to share one with someone. Honey Hot Sandwich was so flavorful and delicious. Little spicy but not bad. Great meal.

The fried chicken Caesar wrap came highly recommended, and I’m not entirely sure it lived up to the hype. Each piece of the wrap was good, but taken together, this felt like less than the sum of its parts. I’ll just do a biscuit dish next time again!

The mac and cheese is decadent, and the crunchy and tasty buttermilk fried chicken with soft biscuits is incredible, waffle fries quite good too. The only thing I didn't like was the hot honey, cause it was very hot but not sweet at all. The restaurant is inside the Time Out market, which is a great location right on the waterfront, with lots of good restaurants and seats, even though they weren't very clean, but the table service is very convenient.

Cute spot, but the sizing is off — their “large” feels more like a medium. Prices are a bit high. I got the orange & passion fruit green tea at 30% sweetness, but it was still really sweet and watery. They should considering lower the amount of syrup. Barely any green tea flavor. Noticed a lot of staff in the back — they seemed busy, just doing their jobs, but service felt kind of distant. Overall, not terrible, but not a place I’d rush back to.

The durian mochi milk tea doesn’t have much of a durian flavor—just tastes like sweet milk—so it’s not really worth trying

My girlfriend and I got our durian mochi milk tea here last night. We noticed a layer of chocolate colored foam on top of the drink and it was darker colored than the last few durian milk tea we got here. We both felt sick about an hour after having the drink. The stomach illness lasted through the night and is still lingering after 24 hours. Reflecting on the color of the drink, the durian was probably not fresh at all when it was made into our drinks.

Disorganized and uncaring staff. The wait time was unnecessary long because they let ready drinks just sit on the counter for minutes without calling out number just wait for the customers to asked . My drink was sitting on the counter for at least 10 mins, i went and ask 3 times if my order was ready. The first 2 times without checking they just told me they are serving a different number . finally I said I have been waiting for half an hour they checked the counter and turned out the drink that’s been sitting there was indeed mind. My drink was fine but my friend’s drink was a slush and by the time we got it was no longer a slush. My friend also ordered a pin but they didn’t give it to us till we check and asked . I have waited 20-30 mins for drinks before but this one was just unnecessary and not worth it for sure. Both guava yogurt and guava slush just tastes like apples for some reason.

I’ve been in a few more times.

A delicious selection of affordable wines from all sorts of backgrounds, highlights on products sold by women winemakers, and a choice of bottles sold across the street at Tailfeather wine bar (gives you a real neighbourly feel). The revamped rewards program is somewhat unusual and unrewarding; I was explained I have to purchase 25 bottles over 3 months to get a 25$ gift card, after which the clock resets. If you buy at a rate less than 2 bottles a week, it’s not something worth signing up for (as I discovered after about a year of purchases).
