Didn’t not enjoy the food. It lacked so much flavor! Just because its all vegan doesnt mean the food should be bland. My partner and I got the crispy wontons and BBQ seitan skewers to start but the skewers legit looked like pig’s tongue and was barely edible. I had to send it back and was forced to get another appetizer because the waitress didnt want to “waste food” but I was nervous because the lemon rose tea I got and the skewers were already gross. My entree the Prosperity Platter with black rice comes out and it was equally, if not more disappointing. I felt like I was on an episode of Fear Factor, forced to eat shit! I think hands down this was the worst food place in all of NYC that I have ever eaten at. The food was so low quality and uninspired. When I was forced to get another appetizer, I opted for fried spring rolls. The inside contents consisted of this mushy mixture with no flavor. Overall the food had no soul and I would not visit again or try another venue. I love eating out but this was a dining experience I couldn’t wait to be over with.

This restaurant is super cute! I was a bit overwhelmed with choosing what to eat because everything on the menu sounded so good! In the end, my partner and I decided to share LuAnne's salad as well as three small plates: the Mixed Tempura, the Silken Coconut Tofu (to die for!!!!), and the Crispy Stuffed Tofu Skin Wraps. We left the restaurant happy and with a full belly, and we'll definitely come back to try out even more dishes on the menu! ☺️

Luanne’s is one of the best vegetarian restaurants in town. I have loved everything I have ever ordered there. the food is so delicious and flavorful. I go with my gluten free friend and she loves the options she is given as well! the ginger ale is DELICIOUS. all of the noodle options are so yummy, my favorite is the ginger miso ramen.

I go here at least once a month! I love this place and it never disappoints! My favorites are the toasted brown rice tea, and Malaysian curry 🩷

Best vegan Pad Thai in the neighborhood. It isn’t greasy or flavorless. Their service is fantastic and pick up orders are ready in about 5 minutes. That atmosphere is modest, but pleasant.

Great quiet restaurant with nice vibes. Would definitely come back as a non vegan

I’ve been coming here for years. It’s my take out stable - everything is delicious and delivery speed is super quick. Thanks Wild Ginger!

First visit - had lunch gumbo. It was tasty and filling. Lots of menu items; many include soy products. The gumbo was one of the few without any.

Several visits later - the food and service are very reliable. My favorite dishes are always on point. Have used them to cater an event too. Love this location.

Get it. It’s so freaking good. The pho was fine— I likely won’t get that again— but the curries and General Tso’s Chicken… SO GOOD.

The passion fruit lemonade is amazing but the Pad Thai was extremely bland and didn’t taste even slightly traditional.

Been to a couple restaurants within this local chain. Always a big fan of the Eggplant in Garlic Basil Sauce (that comes with string beans and a side of rice). Perfectly sautéed and flavored eggplant and string beens. Very generous portion for the price (at least 2 solid servings). Treated myself to a Thai Iced Tea which is also fairly good deal ($5) for the size. My friend ordered the Kimchi Pumpkin Gumbo, which was a bit of a miss. A slightly strange mix of flavors. But perhaps was less appealing to have soup on a hot day in a semi-air conditioned space. Always many seats available no matter what time of day I’ve gone. Practically no need for a reservation in advance.

Delicious. You truly can’t go wrong. I give this place so much of my money it’s borderline embarrassing.
