50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Cliffside Park

“This place doesn’t look much from the outside but the inside is absolutely amazing. The staff was very professional and amazing. The food was absolutely amazing and dessert was equally Good.“

“I love Mediterranean food. When I went to Cinar, I was so impressed with the food and service. Absolutely authentic flavors, and the hummus and chicken kebab were bursting with flavors and lip-smacklingly delicious!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!“

“I am not really big on writing reviews (since the reader can never be sure if they are “real”), but I have to make an exception with the Blackbird Pub and restaurant, in Cliffside Park New Jersey.
The moment you walk in the door, you are greeted and made to feel welcome, as if you are an old friend, not a “walk-in”. That high level of attention continues throughout the visit. You literally never have to ask for a beverage re-fill, the staff cheerfully graciously stays one step ahead of you all the time.
Regarding the food, The Blackbird offers a nice variety of appetizers, sandwiches, and the like. While I have not tried everything on the menu, I can definitely say that the various hamburger options are all superb, as are the wings, with five varieties of sauces, (hot honey, garlic, barbecue, buffalo, garlic, parmesan, and sweet chili Thai).
Prices are reasonable; the crowd is always genial and mellow, and the owner and staff are warm, friendly, and frankly an interesting group of characters with entertaining stories to tell.
I highly recommend that you give The Blackbird Pub and Restaurant a try. You will be glad that you did.“

“We love eating here with our family. We celebrated our sons’ First Communion luncheon here and the food was a hit with our guests. Everything was delicious. Would highly recommend!“

“Treated like family I’m comfortable there. FRESH food ingredients no jar stuff nothing fake or rushed. Rock on!“

“A friend told me about this place. Went there a week or two ago and I LOVED it. Going back again today?“

“Steaks were 5 ⭐️!!! Definitely going back!“

“Great place to eat Turkish food. Service is excellent & atmosphere is very nice: casual & friendly. Lots of tapas to choose from. Lamb dish is tender & baklava is superb. There’s live entertainment on the weekends. Sometimes one of the guests will be playing a clarinet or a guitar while eating. Lol. Lots of local Turkish people eat in this place. They started as a tiny restaurant & they have expanded to the one next door.“

“Went for lunch. Parking limited, but in front. Quality ingredients prepared with attention to detail. Real waitstaff. Clean, Clean, Clean No rushing you out. Great containers for take home leftovers. Definitely recommend. Chef Ray“

“Fantastic food, reasonable prices, excellent service. PS Kitchen sets the standard for manhattan eateries with a conscience and a heart … and the creativity of an experiential culinary artist. The vibe is great. The food is better. Highly recommend“

“วันนี้ไปทานพนักงานบริการดีน่ารัก อาหารอร่อยมากคุ้มค่าให้เยอะจริง“

“Great Italian food and a decent menu, not much choice but not too much. It's located next to Post Office 34 and is very trendy. The view and service are great, but it's noisy as there isn't much to absorb the sound. We ordered focaccia, roasted peppers and pasta. Everything is great and super fresh.“

“The most incredible meal I have ever had. Thank you.“

“This was a fantastic experience! From the moment we stepped inside, the staff was courteous, engaging, helpful and knowledgeable. We had a party of 3, and ordered 6 dishes. Each dish came out as it was made and each dish was absolutely delicious. A person in our party had a gluten allergy which was no problem and accommodated with ease. We come to NY every year and this will absolutely be a place we revisit again and again! Vegans, vegetarians and omnivores alike will appreciate the dishes and be amazed with the taste! Highly recommended!“

“This is hands-down one of the best Italian spots in New York City — and one I make sure to visit every time I’m here. Everything on the menu is creative, flavorful, and beautifully presented, but the Cacio e Pepe pasta is the real standout. The sauce is creamy and rich with just the right amount of black pepper!“

“Had the recommendation from the Off Menu Podcast. Great atmosphere, great service and amazing ramen.“

“This is a top-notch all-vegan place in Williamsburg. The food is creatively made with a subtle mix of flavors. The service, presentation, and atmosphere are also top-notch. The restaurant is classy and yet relaxed, a real treat in every way. 😀“

“Excellent service and food“

“Love the pad thai so much. Really authentic Thai kitchen. Thank you so much guys. I really enjoyed this!“

“We were celebrating a birthday with a group of six and the food was absolutely delicious! My personal favorites were the Soy Butter Bigoli, Mochi Bombolocini, Scallop, Rigatoni, and the Apple Pie. Most of the food was amazing. The service was fantastic – everyone was so attentive, helpful, and friendly. The atmosphere is super relaxed. I really loved the Umami in the Kenmare cocktail.“

“very good food excellent service great bbq fj“

“Absolutely the best food in NYC we finally got a bar seat this past Saturday was in the city for pride we have been trying for years everything was spot on crysathenn salad, the stuffed flatbread and lasagna and cocoa tiramisu“

“Exquisite food, atmosphere, and experience. 10/10 must try!!“

“We came here for my husband’s birthday and had such a great experience! The staff were really friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, and our food came out quickly. I highly recommend getting the whipped ricotta dip — it’s incredible. Also, the Ricotta & Spinach Börek Rolls are an absolute must. We also tried the kebab platter, and the tofu-mushroom skewer was especially delicious. For dessert, the ekmek kataifi was a fun surprise — unlike anything I’ve had before, and definitely worth trying! Updated from previous review on 2025-11-04“

“I highly recommend this restaurant! The food is amazing! You must try the buffalo wings if you love your dishes with a spicy kick and the buffalo cauliflower bites that simply melt in your mouth! The Chef's V Steak is a rich and flavorful you should try it. The service is wonderful and the ambiance is very trendy.“

“I've eaten a LOT of pancakes over the years -- I think I lost count at the age of 5 or so. Some of those pancakes have been just OK, and some of them have been pretty good -- even great on occasion.

However, when my wife and I were in NYC a couple weekends ago to visit our daughter, I experienced something new:

The BEST pancake of my life.

I don't know exactly how Chloe figured out how to accomplish this feat -- especially for a vegan pancake -- and I don't really care. All I know is if I lived in NYC, I would be eating that stack of cinnamon swirl pancakes -- slathered in maple butter and syrup -- at least once EVERY weekend, maybe twice.

They are that good.

Chloe had an iced maple walnut coffee thing on the menu too, and it was amazing. Next trip to NYC, my wife and daughter and I will be setting up camp at Chloe. And if they're lucky, we might even invite some of our daughter's friends.“

“amazing place, we have a great dinner. thank you.“

“Highly recommended for vegans ❤️“

“Fine dining with a flair was on offer and thoroughly enjoyed by all. There isn't much more to say. Experience it for yourself!“

“A fully vegan Korean restaurant situated right in the heart of Manhattan?! My west coast heart is pounding in jealousy and longing to return once again. It's often very hard to find restaurants that serve fully vegan Korean food so the fact that this exists is truly special. A lot of items will be vegetarian at best so to be able to have an extensive menu to order from is a treat. My friends and I came here for lunch and were seated fairly quickly in their hip restaurant. I ordered a couple of things: - Combination Pancakes consisting of sweet corn cilantro, scallion & spicy kimchi offerings. This was their take on traditional Korean jeon and I didn't realize they'd bring out so many small pieces for the table. My favorite was definitely the sweet corn cilantro. - Crispy Korean Chili Tofu Lunch Special, which included a soup and salad of the day as well as two additional banchan (including a pancake!) The tofu was fried to sweet perfection and the chili sauce was top notch. There ended up being more than enough food just from this alone. I hope this spot sticks around because I'll certainly be coming back to fill my Korean cravings without needing to play around with the menu at other restaurants.

“service was awesome, very attentive and very fast. The food was delicious 😋“

“Great place to chill� and enjoy the lovely autumn weather this time of the year! Love This place“

“This place is absolutely amazing. No one needs to tell you that but what’s really cool is that my wife and I went and I’ve been drying out this September but still wanted an experience of trying a bunch of craft cocktails. They killed it. Every drink was so cool and I even bought one of the bottles (photo). It’s just super cool for a place this famous and established to still have a commitment to service so high they’ll cater to some clown who wants to explore off-menu, zero proof cocktails. Well done Blue Hill team, well done.“

“Celebrated my birthday here best experience ever hospitality was amazing“

“Here's the review Spencer wrote for you: My family and I just visited to celebrate my grandsons birthday- we like to get a bunch of plates and share family style and this menu was perfect for that. You have to get mezze and extra bread (must try the kubane). We also ended up getting three orders of the shishbarak for the six of us, it is way too good! I got the salmon for my entree which was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned. Spencer our server recommended the silan and the cheesecake for dessert so we shared those and boy were they something special- I can’t pick a favorite! He brought us a candle and we got some great pictures. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.“

“This was the most delicious Georgian food I’ve had since I was in Georgia. Our server, Marite, was a delight. She made wonderful wine recommendations. We will definitely eat here again.“

“absolutely amazing ♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“We are so thankful to have Candle right by our apt!! Their Black Bean Quinoa burgers and Chickpea Burgers are amazing-we order them 2x a week!! Great soups, great kind staff, just overall a great neighborhood gem.“

“So beautiful and so delicious!!“

“I love green curry, if I could eat just one food for the rest of my life it's green curry so I'm picky when I try a new place and this place was INCREDIBLE!!! I inhaled this dish like it was my last meal and wanted more, and great service“

“Everything is seasoned to perfection here! Easily one of the best burgers (vegan or non) that I’ve had in awhile. Honestly, the only reason I remembered I wasn’t eating real meat was that I didn’t get my usual stomach ache or feel the heaviness of a greasy beef burger. Also the nugs are perfectly seasoned! I’ll be back this week for round 2!“

“Never disappoints. Excellent food. Always packed“

“This is an AHHHHMAZING place to eat! Huge, delicious menu and it's so great when I can get my faves and know the food is being made by people who care about the animal we share our planet with. Thank you for being vegan, Spicy Moon!!❤️❤️💯“

“very authentic Chinese restaurant. like the decor. service is 👍“

“I am so happy that they have an SOS menu. It was great to be able to relax and know that the kitchen welcomes my dietary preference. Thank you!

It seems that nearly everything is prepared to order, and as a result if coming here you should be prepared to possibly wait longer than most restaurants for your food to be ready.
I do wish there was a way for the restaurant to communicate this to avoid problems with new customers who may be expecting quicker service.“

“Without question, my favorite vegan restaurant in NYC! The drinks, food, and desserts are all equally delightful. The portions are huge and an excellent value. Very thankful to have access to such masterfully created nutritious and delicious food.“

“Lobster cocktail was very good; alcoholic drinks were very good; Empire filet was terrific with the home fries. We were celebrating our 53rd wedding anniversary and my 53 rd birthday. Albert, one of the managers was wonderful and comped our dessert and after dinner drinks.“

“Very nice atmosphere in the middle of the East Village.“

“Oxomoco nails the balance: high-quality, adventurous Mexican food in a relaxed but stylish setting, topped off with great service and a bathroom that might just become the highlight of your day. Whether you’re there for a special day or just a fun trip with friends, this place delivers — and then surprises you, in the best way.“

“Es el mejor, la atención, la amabilidad 💯“
