50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Englewood Cliffs

“My first time visiting this popular spot. We got there at 10:30am on a Sunday and was seated quickly and serviced quickly as well. The waitress we had was very nice and attentive. The staff sang HBD to my son. We enjoyed the food and ourselves.“

“Food is excellent, service is good and polite, atmosphere is gentle peaceful and clean. I highly recommend here, especially parties for 10-50 ppl.“

“এই রেস্তোরাঁটি খুবই যুক্তিসঙ্গত মূল্যে অবিশ্বাস্যভাবে সুস্বাদু খাবার সরবরাহ করে। পরিষেবাটি অসাধারণ, এবং সামগ্রিক অভিজ্ঞতা অসাধারণ। দাম সাশ্রয়ী রাখার পাশাপাশি এত উচ্চ মানের খাবার বজায় রাখার জায়গা খুঁজে পাওয়া বিরল। নিঃসন্দেহে, এটি আমার অভিজ্ঞতার মধ্যে সেরা রেস্তোরাঁগুলির মধ্যে একটি। This restaurant offers incredibly delicious food at very reasonable prices. The service is outstanding, and the overall experience is wonderful. It is rare to find a place that maintains such high quality while keeping prices affordable. Without a doubt, this is one of the best restaurants I have ever experienced.“

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

“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.“

“Excellent service and food“

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

“I went there with my boyfriend and his father during a trip in NYC and we weren’t disappointed. My boyfriend had the kofta kobab which had a very meaty texture. His father had the wild mushroom kobab and I took the braised "beef". Everything was delicious, including the dessert (ekmek kataifi) which wasn’t too sweet, just perfect 😊“

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

“Highly recommended for vegans ❤️“

“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 had the Bibimbap with teriyaki chicken and was blown away. Decided to take home the leftovers that didn’t even survive the evening in my fridge cause I just had to go back and finish them😄Dubai cheese cake for desert also 5/5! Updated from previous review on 2026-03-27“

“very good food excellent service great bbq fj“

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

“I took my son to Empire Steak House for his 15th birthday, and overall it was a great experience. The service was amazing, attentive, welcoming, and made the night feel special from start to finish. The sides, mashed potatoes and baked potato, were just okay and could've used more flavor, even with butter, salt, and pepper. But the steak... absolutely incredible. Easily one of the best steaks in the city. Definitely a spot I'd return to for the quality of the meat and top-tier service.“

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

“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.“

“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“

“Great dining experience for hot pot.“

“lots of food for a good price!“

“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.“

“I live in basically the middle of nowhere. Most food I eat is relegated to home cooking or traveling several towns over if I ever want to eat out. I'm visiting the city for a weekend. Oh my god I didn't know we were at this level. Genuinely some of the greatest plant meat food I've ever had. It's honestly a crime against humanity I have to go back and live in a place where this doesn't exist. Updated from previous review on 2026-03-01“

“Amazing! 😋 The attention to detail and service to clients is above and beyond. The food 🍽 variety, options, and taste are exceptional. This place is an absolute gem among so many options in NYC Vegan Grill is top tier and I highly recommend 👌🏻. One of the most recommended vegan places when visiting NYC' upper east side. ENJOY! 🍽 🍛 😋“

“Obao is one of my favorite restaurants in NYC! I have never been disappointed here. Best atmosphere, staff, food, and drinks all for a reasonable price. Highly, highly recommend!!! Especially the calamari 😋“

“I have been to this tasty Mexican place, which is reopening soon enough, twice now. The inside is casual, the service is very friendly, and the food is overall very tasty, almost unexpectedly good for an area where the only other Mexican options nearby are chains such as Rosa Mexicano.

The first time, I only stopped for a snack because I wanted something small for breakfast, I believe, after an appointment or something similar. I went with a Kekito de Pan de Elote, or, in other words, a little corn cake, which was maybe around $4.50. It was mildly sweet, almost like a thick custard in texture, and delicious. The corn flavor shone through, and it worked quite well with a coffee I made at home, though they do have some beverages, such as Café de Olla.

The other time I was here was in early November, as they used that week to celebrate Día de los Muertos. They had a special menu, as seen in the photos, and instead of the more expensive Chamorro, which was very tempting, I went with two relatively cheaper dishes.

The Pozole Rojo for $17 was a traditional hominy stew with slow-cooked pork or chicken in a red chili broth, and garnished with fresh toppings. There was also a Verde option for the same price point in a tomatillo-poblano broth with avocado and radish, but I generally prefer red pozole. I have had pozole from plenty of places, and this was outstanding. There was plenty of corn and soft, tender pork. The broth was as complex as it should be, with an earthy, slightly spicy flavor. This was excellent, and I hope they add it to the main menu when they reopen in their new, larger space.

My other dish was Tamales Oxaqueños with two tamales, for $22. This consisted of steamed corn masa wrapped in banana leaves and filled with chicken in mole negro. The tamales had a good texture, being soft and less dense than the typical lower-quality ones you find in most other restaurants and antojitos carts. There was plenty of chicken inside, and the mole was complex with very mild sweetness, a good amount of heat, some bitterness, and a wide variety of spices. At least from what I can tell, this was probably the most comparable mole to my favorite at Mama Lupita's Bistro in Sunset Park, which serves outstanding enmoladas, or enchiladas con mole. This was filling and again very tasty.

This is very good Mexican food for pretty reasonable prices, at least for Midtown East. I would definitely go back here for breakfast, brunch, or dinner. I look forward to going back once they reopen.“

“Food was great and service was very quick. Nice ambiance as well.“

“Best food ever“

“Visited NYC from the UK and already planned to eat here after seeing the food posts and reviews and it didn’t disappoint ! Food was beyond amazing with loads of choice and huge portions.

“Had a lovely meal to celebrate my 50th birthday, the food was so good and the service was fantastic, I would highly recommend“

“My new favorite restaurant!!! The food is amazing.“

“My wife and I generally eat for five people, we ordered 4 small plates and 2 mains, still looking into dessert. Each dish had its own layer of perfection with unique flavors and exquisite presentation. I’d say a restaurant on its way to becoming Michelin…..bravo! Oh and the ole school hip hop added to the vibe. Enjoyed this dinner date immensely!👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😎😎😎“

“Delicious pizza. Friendly staff. Great experience!Highly recommend!!!“

“I’ve been to another Che Li location a few times and visited this location for the first time back in May. The restaurant’s design is always lovely — each dining area is built like a small wooden oriental courtyard, which matches the Zhejiang cuisine theme perfectly.

We ordered quite a lot, and every dish turned out to be enjoyable. The crab roe noodle was especially delicious, better than the version I make at home lol. The soup dumpling were also quite good. Overall, a very refined and satisfying meal.“

“Excellent food and service“

“Finally able to visit and so happy I did. My drink, Dutch Revival, is my new favorite cocktail. The winter flatbread was delicious. Loved the vibe and hospitality.“

“What a treat to stumble upon Parker & Quinn! It was an intimate atmosphere and a perfect night for me and my 10-year-old daughter. The kids’ menu was so good (the pasta was homemade and so delicious that I had to enjoy a few bites!), and my margarita flatbread was incredible. Great service from our server and another gentleman (the manager?) who came over multiple times to check on us. I highly recommend you check this out if you’re looking for something away from the hustle and bustle and generic nature of Timed Square. Chef’s kiss!“

“Enjoyed a Fabulous dinner and Found the food Delicious and Authentic 💯 The staff was warm and attentive, also the atmosphere and Cleanliness were top notch. Well done, We'll be back⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
