“Cool place for celebrating anything with friends and family“

“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.“

“วันนี้ไปทานพนักงานบริการดีน่ารัก อาหารอร่อยมากคุ้มค่าให้เยอะจริง“

“RAAAAAH this place is a Brooklyn best. Flavorful Ethiopian food with a few twists here and there. The Kitfo plate is our go-to entree pretty much every time. We also consistently get the Lentil Sambusas which come with a fiery hot sauce. If you want something more classic, they have two sandwich options. A Lentil based burger or a Lion’s Mane Chicken sandwich. Both are really good and come with fantastically seasoned fries. If you go for brunch they’ve got a handful of awesome breakfast items like an SEC, Breakfast burritos, and even a vegan vanilla ice cream infused French toast which is a MUST. Head to Ras for the vibes. Updated from previous review on 2026-02-05“

“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!“

“Went for an early dinner like 4:30 pm for a pizza, we were the only ones in there.

As expected service was super attentive and very friendly and kind.

I ordered the honey pepperoni pizza. I ate the whole thing minus a few crusts. The sauce was delicious.

The place was very beautiful inside and they had a very clean bathroom.

I would definitely come back!“

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

“Very impressed since they was decorating the place. I was passing by every day till they finally open and I desire to try the food, I was curious and also I’m not a vegan person. When I finally try that food I just got in shock. Super tasty, delicious, the Trinidad and Dominican Republic flavors- was so down the earth. So thankful to have them at the neighborhood, the service is excellent and Yesenia and her employees super professionals. The ambiance and decoration soo relaxing- I love the food and the service, how they welcome you, is hard to find a place like that. Highly recommended to everyone- vegan or not vegan- 🥗 the talent is there and I wish them success- nice location, sparkling clean - if you are looking for good food - this is your spot-“

“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.“

“Highly recommended for vegans ❤️“

“The food was good. I had a E-Classic“

“This restaurant exceeded our expectations. The service was attentive, and the food was outstanding. Since everything is vegan, it was ideal for our spring Easter lent. I ordered the asparagus rolls for the first time, and they turned out to be absolutely delicious. The angel‑hair pasta with their vegan “chicken” was amazing—so flavorful and satisfying. And of course, the volcano rolls were my favorite, just as perfect as always.“

“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.“

“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“

“So beautiful and so delicious!!“

“Great dining experience for hot pot.“

“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!“

“lots of food for a good price!“

“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!!❤️❤️💯“

“Never disappoints. Excellent food. Always packed“

“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.“

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

“Pizza is outrageous as well as the spumoni!“

“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.“

“Came here for an anniversary dinner and had one of the best steaks I have ever had! Cooked exactly as I asked and came out at the perfect temperature. We had about 4 servers come out and help distribute food onto our plates and checked on us multiple times through the dinner“

“absolutely amazing ♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“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! 🍽 🍛 😋“

“Great lunch spot, fantastic food, friendly service.“

“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 food and service. 1000% recommend.“

“The flavors were great. I didn't expect the food to taste this good. Every plate was different and enjoyable. The black truffle side was $30 and I dont think it was worth it unfortunately. Everything else was perfect Updated from previous review on 2026-02-17“

“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.“

“Fantastic food, twist on classic Americana. Great drinks and service“

“Excellent and comfortable affordable“

“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 😋“

“We had a nice time, and the food was good. We were however told to leave as there was another reservation waiting (we were hence offered a drink at the bar which never came), and the doorman got angry at us for opening the door in the wrong way.
So would have been perfect if not for those two departure hick ups sadly.“

“I avoided this place for about two years because I always went to A.T.M vegan, but they were closed one day and I decided to go here for once. Absolutely glad I did. The Morning Star sandwich I had was absolutely delicious and the triple 3 sandwich was good as well. I will definitely be returning.“

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