“My favorite takeout Indian in the area! I usually go Chicken 65 for an appetizer which has (in my opinion) the perfect spicy level between flavor and spicy. For meals, you can’t go wrong with the Chicken Tikka Masala (or Vindaloo) + Garlic “
“I visited during the grand opening special and ordered a bubble tea and a taro bubble tea! I think both tasted good, nothing special, but I did like the chewy texture of the boba! I also thought the staff were very welcoming and nice! They gave me a boba plushy keychain and a donut as part of their promotion! The space is a bit small inside but has a few stools to sit! This is a great addition to the bubble tea options in this area!“

“I met a friend at Tartinery Wednesday afternoon, so it was not crowded. I ordered a cup of latte and warm apple tart. The tart was indeed warm and a scoop of vanilla ice cream complimented it. We stayed there for more than an hour, enjoying our conversation. The workers were present when we needed something, and it gave relaxed atmosphere. I was pleasantly surprised that they gave some discount as my friend is a nearby university student. I would return to Tartinery to try breakfast or lunch next time.“
“Ate a late brunch here and we really enjoyed it. Such a diverse menu, the food was so flavorful and the ingredients seemed quality. I got the Za'atar roasted cauliflower and loved it -- it was perfectly cooked. We also got chimichurri skewers as an appetizer which were also great! I was surprised how quiet it was, although it is probably more popular in the evening. This place deserves more traffic!“
“This is a tiny little totally unassuming deli located off the beaten path on W 107th & Manhattan Ave that for some reason makes unanticipatedly excellent croissants.I grew up in Paris where you can find an excellent croissant for 0.90€ on every street corner. So when they try to sell me croissant for $5/ $6/ $7 here in New York, well, I tell them that’s an absurd price and I turn around and I walk out.Hakan sells these excellently executed croissants for $2.50/ each. Everything was as it properly should be: not dry or bread-like as is often the case here in the US; nice and properly buttery as it’s supposed to be; flaky on outside and doughy on inside as it’s supposed to be. An excellent croissant. Excited to try the other pastries! Hakan and his employee were great - super friendly and affable and offered me great service ?“
“Some of the KINDEST people I have ever met work behind the counter and own this amazing local spot. Anytime I’m there, I feel taken care of and I know I’m getting a high-quality sandwich alongside one of the best smoothies in the city. I love going here, the owners especially create such a welcoming environment. Also, you gotta try their desserts! Order a sweet treat with a healthy smoothie and it cancels out, trust me.“
“The Healthy in Dyckman Juice Bar is one of my new favorites! The variety of food options available is mind boggling and I mean that in a good way. As someone who doesn’t eat dairy, I love it here. My favorite thing I’ve tried so far is the Salmon rice bowl. It’s so healthy, delicious, filling, and well priced! The avocado toast with the eggs was hitting too! You must give this gem a try. Thanks Juan for your great service today.Dietary restrictions: If you’re vegan, vegetarian, or don’t eat dairy this place you’ll feel right at home. Healthy vibes apply.“
“I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE!! ?? I am always satisfied with my order and always keep coming back to doordash for more!! I want to give a quick shout out to Michael and Cariluz for crafting the best amazing salad that I enjoy always !! ? thank you again i’m gonna keep coming back :-)“
“Was just walking by and the vibrsnt colors peaked my interest and had ti go in-The best tasting smoothie I've ever ordered. As a guy who lives on chick fil a and chipotle, I can taste the healthiness. Very fresh, very healthy, very happy.Probably falls into the premium product category, but as far as getting what you pay for, it's a 10 out of 10 for me.Will come back again!“
“I work 12 hour shifts near here and I’m always soooo tired halfway through. I come here for a quick pick me up. The lady behind the counter is the absolute sweetest, drinks aside- she always lightens my mood. The açaí bowls are to die for- not mid. I’ve tried so many spots in Astoria and Vela is consistently yummy. Today. I went in for a milk tea and they ran out of boba. She went an extra mile to charge me for a medium despite me ordering a large! Soooo sweet. ??“
“I went to the Crumbly Cafe & Bakery on Second Avenue this week for the first time. I ordered the feta and spinach bistro and it was one of the best baked goods I've had in a very long time. I was so impressed that I just placed an on-line order for 8 different items to try and can't wait to pick them up tomorrow. In addition, the wonderfully talented baker, Ms. Miriam and her lovely daughter, Mia, could not have been nicer and more welcoming. It will definitely be a favorite and am so glad of the new discovery!“
“My sister and I had lunch here and it was amazing. The place is nice and cozy, the chef is super friendly and we got free samples of the soup of the day! The wraps are delicious and the pastries are to die for. I almost took the whole case of pastries home. Be sure to try the sweet potato bread!!Dietary restrictions: Vegan!!“
“I reviewed this place when it first opened and it was amazing and well needed in the community and it is still an amazing place. Previous comment about treating people of color different has not been my experience as a person of color. They are always friendly and extremely respectful and they even remember my name. Again I love this place.“
“I tried this place after hearing about it on Instagram. Me and my husband went after the Washington Heights 5K that he participated in. We came a little early because I thought they opened at 10 but then I realized today is Sunday and they open an hour later so we went into Marshalls to kill time. Me and my husband both got juice. It was the best juice I’ve ever tasted. Usually when I have fresh juice at another place, most times they are not served cold and refreshing, and this place I had it cold and refreshing how I love it. I am planning to come back again so I can try one of the sandwiches also. I hope maybe in the future they open up a location in Queens.“
“This place is amazing!!!! The workers are soo nice and their snacks are delicious. I love their bubble tea it is super yummy and they make it quick. I love the thai iced tea which is my go-to drink. The mood of the place is amazing you can tell your food/drink is going to be great. The aisles are covered with delicious asian snacks and they even have frozen things like ice cream. They have a good selection of snacks and ramen, etc. I love the tea time light outside on the window. You can ask for no ice and a low level of sugar which is perfect since I prefer less sugary drinks. I recommend the three sisters, tea time signature, thai iced tea, and the build your own fruit tea.“

“My two nieces and I popped in this morning on our way to the Natural History Museum. I’ll admit I was hesitant but thankfully I listened to my nieces! I had the avocado and eggs in a crepe, which was the best gluten-free sandwich I have ever had. Did not miss the bread at all. My 14 year old chose the Nutella crepe with banana and the 9 ounce Açaí bowl. Oldest selected one of the big bowls … it was a work of art. Highly recommend and we will be back on our next trip. All the best on your growth plans!“
“Happy with the Hackensack branch, before I had to drive 20 minutes now I have it close to home. The food is delicious and what I love most are their juices and smoothies..!! If you are on a diet, it has green juices and healthy smoothies. If not, I recommend my favorite, which is sapote or Mamey..!! The girls are nice, good service, super clean. Recommended 100%Dietary restrictions: Well I see that it has green juices, although I don't like them...!! But those who want healthy smoothies this is the place.Parking: Well, it has about 14 parking spaces, I don't think I counted them correctly, but the good thing is that I always find parking.Kid-friendliness: The portions are perfect for the little ones in the house, the empanadas and the yucca buns I know they love them.“
“Great food, great smoothies, and wonderful customer service! There's also a good selection of high quality vegetarian and vegan items (both food and the smoothies). Would recommend for a quick bite or a full-on meal. Thanks for such a pleasant lunch!“
“The easiest place to eat vegetarian. It’s so flavorful and everything has been 10/10. I tried their cashew ricotta and pear with honey drizzle, amazing. Their lentil soup; amazing. Their cauliflower stew, so good. Everything is amazing here. If you’re looking for a switch up on your diet, I can’t think of a better place. Feels amazing to eat something tasty but not feel bloated and tired after. So good! New favorite local spot“
“Very good option for Latinos, mainly who enjoy yogurt with yuca bread and other things. The prices are not cheap for the product and ingredients but it is not expensive either... It is managed in the middle, the service is always very friendly and the place is small but cozy. I recommend “
“Delicious! Stumbled upon this place when I was searching for a quick bite. I ordered delivery and the food came very quickly. I was pleasantly surprised how big and hefty the bowls were! We got the bulgogi rice bowl and a make your own bowl with fried chicken. Both had generous heaping portions of meat. I would say my appetite is fairly large and I couldn't even finish half of my bowl! The bulgogi was tender and juicy, and the vegetables that came with my bowl were delicious. The make your own bowl was also phenomenal! The cucumber kimchi and pickled turnips were some of my favorites. Definitely adding this place to my regular rotation of meals and I can't wait to have it again!“
“I had a smoothie, soup and bread pudding. Everything was very good and I like how the bread pudding was not extremely sweet. The chicken soup was VERY good and fresh. The only problem with the smoothie and I understand that it happens, a piece of plastic was in it from the açaí, I guess. There’s no reason to leave a terrible review for it because the food was good and the service was very friendly too, just a heads up.“
“I ordered a chai latte on a Saturday at 12:30 PM. It was perfect flavor, sweetness and temperature. I got it with almond milk. I brought in a bagel from another place. However, I saw that they also sell bagels and I heard people ordering an egg sandwich as well as other items, I also noticed they have healthy shakes as well. Since I live nearby I got a punchcard and I hope to visit soon. I'm not 100% sure but I'm pretty positive that it's Latin owned possibly female owned as well. There's not too much seating, I believe there's three tables of two inside and two tables outside. Luckily, not too many people stay for long periods of time I was able to stay for two hours, talking to my friend with no problem.“
“Stumbled upon this joint randomly on my way home and what a surprise!The staff is really friendly and explained some of the sandwiches for me, decided to get the Chimi with chicken and the lava cake. Both were delicious and not the mention the fair prices.Although they don’t have an indoor sitting area, they have a small outdoor hut if you’d like to stay and dine in.Truly a hidden gem in the neighborhood, can’t wait to try some of their other specialities!“
“This is my favorite cafe to take out from or dine in with a cozy and calm atmosphere to either take a break or do a little work while eating fresh, delicious food. The staff is friendly and the ingredients always top quality. The website is super convenient to order from when I’m busy and short on time. This is my favorite spot in NYC!Vegetarian options: Many options and always fresh!“
“This coffee shop is a gem. It’s neat, modern, clean, and the atmosphere is super soothing. There are words of affirmation on their mugs, which was a nice surprise.I had a latte with oat milk and it was refreshing. Seems to be a good place to order some coffee, read a book or get some work done. I didn’t get to check if there was WiFi or not, but this is a place I’d be willing to use my hotspot for.The staff were very warm and welcoming — I’ll definitely be back when I’m in the neighborhood to try a pastry or two! Thank you.“
“The Tropical bowl was beautiful! I love to eat açaí bowl, as an afternoon snack or as breakfast and the truth is, the taste was delicious. I find the prices affordable and the service 10/10. I will continue trying this store, its products, I know it will not disappoint me.“
“Coming to this juice press actually makes my day every day. Gregory (who I believe is the manager) is the kindest man and provides such great service. I love juice press for its great selection of healthy food, but even more so for the hospitality coming from Gregory and the staff at this location. They are always smiling, helpful, and pleasant. I never want to get lunch anywhere else! I have sampled some off the menu flavors (chocolate mousse, peanut butter and jelly that are SO GOOD I hope they become actual menu items). It just really makes a difference grabbing lunch a few times a week and knowing you will come in to a warm welcome and positive atmosphere rather than other places where you are barely even greeted and trying to get you in and out as quick as possible. Love the staff, love the service, love the food!Dietary restrictions: Only place I have ever found that has organic, no added sugar, gluten free, and dairy free options. Very very good selection for strict, clean diets.“
“Nice hold on the wall or cozyIce coffee about $5 hot coffee about 4 coffee was ok nothing to be hype aboutTake go cup has a pink lid make them stand outCarrot is worth it tasty $6Fruit tart $7 priceyWill definitely come back for the pastry“

“Let me tell you guys about this vegan chili!!! The best flavor, packed with delicious beans, I am talking the best I’ve ever had. I normally never write reviews but I had to give super credit when it due! Get you some chili from the Good Neighbor ?“
“Very cute spot! I was impressed by the menu before I even arrived so I knew already that I wanted the Choco thin mint and open avocado toast! The consistency of the smoothie was perfect and the avocado toast flavor and crunch was tasty ! Will be back for the empanadas!“
“Solid Ramen spot in Murrayhill that you can almost always get a seat at. It's not the best Ramen I've ever had, but the prices are reasonable, and the interior tends to be pretty chill, which is nice when you're just looking for a cozy ramen night! Servers are all super friendly, and it doesn't take too long for the food to come out either!“

“It is a super nice and pleasant place, the fruit salads and their cholado are delicious and the service is very good, I always go when I can and the experience is excellent.I will soon have my birthday there with my friends and family.Super recommended.❤️“
“This is a fantastic find! With very little juice bars in this area, Tutti Frutti juice bar deserves a repeated and loyal visit. Service is friendly, juices are fresh and healthy, the menu is incredibly diverse. Although space is limited, it's definitely not cramped. If you're driving, looking for parking in the surrounding area shouldn't be that bad, just don't double park directly out front, this part of Park Avenue is incredibly active. Ultimately, Tutti Frutti is a go, and a go again!“
“This is an excellent smoothie and acai bowl place, with a very fitting name! All of the fruit was fresh and smoothies are made to order. I was able to customize a smoothie with almond milk, spinach, banana, Nutella, blueberries, and avocado. It was actually surprisingly good and hit just the spot. So glad to have found this healthy juice/smoothie place in Jersey City!“
“Coffee is good, ambiance is nice... and good music, got me shazaming stuff. Plenty of seating--they are not one of these new coffee shops with no seating. At closing time they offer free pastries to people willing to leave a nice review (totally unrelated, obviously)“
“Mystical Flavor of Food and Mystique of the Restaurant Site/EnvironsWe discovered a mixture of ages at each table but all present a refreshing youthfulness, no matter the age, children, middle aged, older.Immerse in the geography of the restaurant interior: eight bar stools which catch/attract mini families and the only one diner alone present this weekend evening; notice seemingly small tables that seat three to four or a bit more lined up and placed conveniently and refreshingly geometrical. Efficient wait persons, each carefully focused on her/his task, stand out, for example, service at a corner table of five, one stalwart, well postured waitress arrayed in perfectly taut jeans connected to all her stable motion that shows her steady, stable stance, bringing out the best of the jeans and the jeans bringing out the best of holistic her. Men servers, also efficient, are the majority; one of the two women servers as described above focuses facially and geometrically perfectly both in motion and also while not moving.Lighting at our table at first seemed dim (bulb above was out it seems) but later seemed to get lighter and was fine. Overall the light from entrance to kitchen at the other end horizontally maintains its motion.Food conveys an holistic Italian feel. Delicious looking and especial tasting appetizers grab and hold diners' attention, panelle for example and also fried zucchini blossoms, as tasty as the sound of their name. Gaze at and savor Leonard Street pizza (cool name), replete with pistachio pesto, zucchini, heirloom tomato, flor di latter, chillies, lemon, burrata, basil, so many pizza parts flowing smoothly together. The pasta rigatoni jealously views its glowing pizza competitor.The restaurant's motion and taste work together and reach all diners present, as evident from their peaceful, satisfied visages.Visit again and again to continue to delve into and continue delicately to probe Pecoraro Latteria's forever mystique..“
“This is one of the best places to get a healthy smoothie, juice, shots or açaí bowls. I’ve came here twice and they have not disappointed. They have very fast service and they also don’t have one of those overwhelming menus. The smoothies they make are flavorful and just rich in protein I loved their açaí pitaya bowl. I would definitely have it again.I’d recommend them if you’re looking for healthy snack or a pick me up after a long night.“
“Perfect start to the day! We stayed here 4 or 5 times during our week in NY for breakfast. We tested porridge, acai bowls and smoothies. The "Hell's Kitchen Sink" tastes awesome (with peanut butter and cocoa nips.) The smoothies Boo Berry, Gymbuddy and Energy Boost are each made with almond or coconut milk and protein powder .We loved everything! The service is very friendly and There are only a few seats, so we were there early (about 8 / 9h) and had no problems getting a small table.Now we are back home and miss the delicious bowls!“
“This shop is hands down my favorite boba place to visit! The Pinoy Series is amazing, the home made recipes really hit home with the flavor and texture of the Ube Dream, Coco Pandan Lover and Mango-licious boba drinks! They’re all unique and so refreshing, totally worth to go and try even just once ??! (Their Ube Dream is TOP TIER!! ???) As a frequent customer, my personal favorites are the dirty brown sugar drink AND the Taro Cookie Crumble slushy. I’m not a huge taro fan, but GOD I will devour 10 cups of that taro cookie crumble slush in one sitting without anyone asking. (lol)In addition to the aesthetically pleasing environment and ambience of the store, the customer service is always top notch. All the staff are extremely kind and welcoming, and I’ve always had an enjoyable time at the store! Anyone looking for a chill place to study and enjoy some Halo-halo and fruit tea, Bubble-Tealicious is where it’s at !!11/10 will always come back again!! ?“
“I stumbled upon this amazing, friendly little coffee place. They are just the nicest people. I had a fantastic breakfast crepe, gluten free, as they should all be. Even the presentation and the packaging were perfect. I'm a black coffee, no nothing kind of person and the drip coffee is great.Dietary restrictions: Every crepe is naturally gluten free, made with sweet rice flour.“
“Me and friends picked up 2 cakes and the service was only around a 5 minute wait! It's small in size compared to other locations but the interior was very cute! I really enjoy Mango Mango and I would definitely recommend any of the crepe cakes, crepes, and hot tea (dining in). The waitress was sweet and our purchase came with a lovely reusable bag! :) “
“had this originally in Flushing, NY. tried the pineapple tea w nata jelly. very refreshing and the jelly was delicious w a nice crunchy texture.so good that I got it again later in Secaucus, NJ. this time was the peach tea w nata jelly. it was still very delicious!disclaimer, they may be a chain but they each make it differently. the nata jelly in NY was shorter, rectangular shape while NJ is longer, like shaven coconut. both were still amazing. would definitely go again!picture: pineapple tea w nata jelly“
“So good, and a great value. Service was above and beyond too. Thank you!Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating and thoughtful. Asked for vegetarian burrito amd he verified cheese and sour cream were okay.Kid-friendliness: Lots of options to keep everyone happy.“
“I was so sad to see More Life Cafe and Plant-base leave Jersey City. They were a great option for me on days when I personally didn't have the energy to prepare a meal for myself. I'm so thankful for all of the BoyceMode locations! Everything I ordered was delicious. Parking is a bit tricky, but the service and menu options are well worth circling the block and looking for parking. I will definitely continue to patronize the shops whenever I'm on that side of town and recommend others to do the same. Continued love and growth to everyone involved in making this space available to us.???Vegetarian options: This is a vegan restaurant. You won't find any animal products on the menu.Dietary restrictions: Items with nuts are clearly labeled so those with an allergy can safely avoid them.“
“Seriously the best sandwich I have eaten! Perfectly cross on the outside, plenty of filling and super tasty. Love the combinations, adding hash browns or mozzarella sticks to the sandwich. Also serves great coffee and smoothies. Host was also very friendly, we will come back!“
“I visited I'Milky with friends after a hotpot dinner in Chinatown! It wasn't too busy inside (Sunday night) and there was plenty of seating for everyone. it was a great place to sit, enjoy our drinks,and chat about before we separated.I would definitely recommend I'Milky. I ordered a large fresh milk taro with boba. The boba was sweet and chewy, but the star was really the fresh taro! It isn't the stereotypical taro drink, which usually comes out as purple (and most real taro I've seen aren't purple but a milky white color). You can't adjust the sugar in the drink, but I honestly thought the sugar in the drink itself was perfect! I was always really excited to drink up real taro chunks and found the milk really frothy and a great complement to the taro. The drink was a bit pricey at about ~$10 after tax, but definitely a special treat. I'd get this drink again, but there were many other items on the menu that I really want to try!“
“Very cute and well decorated cafe in the area! They have a photo booth that you can pay to use to capture good memories of your day. I came here and got the matcha ice cream latte. It was delicious and refreshing- perfect for the summer weather. I would definitely come back here again to try their other drinks!“
