50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Kew Gardens

“Mr. Khalit is amazing! I stumbled upon his shop while i was waiting for my train at Kew Gardens station. It was extremely cold day and was around the shop’s closing time, yet he asked me to stay in his shop even though my train won’t be here for a while. Mr. Khalit is kindhearted and seems to love his job. I’m so glad I found this gem and definitely will visit again if I have the opportunity!“

“Hands down the best pizza I’ve had in NYC. The sauce is sweet but also salty, it’s hard to explain just try it! It gets very crowded on weekend nights, I suggest calling ahead of time or just braving the line (it does move quick). The staff are really friendly and charismatic. It’s a tight spot, most of the seats are taken but worth every bit of hassle. Amazing pizza!“

“I’ve been coming to this location for over 5 years and I never decided to make a review. You are the only Mr wish I love going to out of all the locations. The drinks are always spot on. It’s a craving of mine all the time. My top two drinks are of course the Bubble Tea and The Apple Tea with Fresh Pulp. I go here so often the young man already knows my orders. They’re polite and very welcoming. We always enjoy coming here our whole family does. If it were up to me I’d be here every day it’s just so good and refreshing! We also recommend The Black Tiger Milk & The Peach Tea all these drinks in a large of course. The only thing I recommend from the Mr wish chain is to get into catering cause I’d have them for every event.

Best Bubble Tea in Queens!! I say that with so much passion better yet BEST BOBA!!“

“My favorite neighborhood cafe. The vibes are immaculate and it's an ideal spot to chill during the hot summer months. The summer iced tea lemonade is my favorite refresher and the food is quality for the prices. I would recommend it for the atmosphere, drinks, and chill vibe.“

“Bagels are awesome, but if I see the guy without glasses at the register, I won’t bother going in. With the other guy, I can just go straight to the register and get a bagel with nothing on it and run out, instead of waiting on the sandwich line for 5-10 minutes.“

“very solid place to order on ubereats,

their food is always hot, and they really pack the tacos. i recommend getting the combo plates so you can get a little bit of everything! out of all of the meats, i lean towards the al pastor!“

“Food was great, we went during lunch and it was nice and quiet. The place is huge, very clean, and well maintained. Our server was super attentive and kind, which made the experience even better. Portion sizes were generous and the food quality was excellent.

The only downside was that gratuity was automatically included in the bill. The menu notes this for parties of six or more, but I prefer tipping cash directly to the server, so the automatic charge was a bit disappointing. Overall, still a very good experience and solid lunch spot.“

“I can’t rave enough about my experience at Ras. I had great service and probably the best meal during my visit to NYC. I came for lunch on a weekday and the whole menu, including brunch, was available. Since they are 100% vegan, it also meant that I could order anything and everything. Can there be too many choices? Everything looked great, but my waiter convinced me to get the chef’s special kitfo. There was also a nice selection of NA mixed drinks, and I ordered the Crown Heights queen—watermelon, ginger beer, mint and lime. I loved every sip and every bite of my meal. The chef’s special was packed with flavor and different textures. Each bite felt unique from the last. Kitfo is typically a ground beef, and their version is made from soy. That alone had such incredible flavor like it had been nicely browned to build out the complexity of the dish. The drink was equally good. I could have started on a second meal immediately after finishing my lunch. Not because I was hungry, simply because the food blew my mind. Updated from previous review on 2026-04-17“

“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-“

“We came for Sunday brunch with family & friends March 8th. The renovations have taken the space UP several notches. And the food is better than ever. The Mexican vanilla latte sublime.“

“I make a habit to go to Seitan’s Helper every time I’m in New York for work. I get 4 sandwiches , to also have with me for traveling back on the train.
As a vegetarian , getting a good sandwich is hard … but these 2 take sandwiches to a new level and make them above and beyond.

On top of the amazing food , the 2 owners are lovely people, and are always jamming out to some 2000s pop-punk

Highly recommend to anyone , vegan/vegetarian or not!!“

“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’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.“

“One word DIABLO !!!🙏❤️ Frost Beer was ice cold !!!“

“Great take on Lu rou fan (minced pork and rice), excellent scallion pancakes and awesome dessert (Tian miantuan) that was like a sandwich of sweet fried dough, golden sesame ice cream and condensed milk (plus cilantro and butter dried peanuts)! Great beverages as well such as the slightly sweetened Jasmine iced tea and Sanzo (lychee & calamansi) sparkling water products!“

“Amazing, nuanced, fresh and delicious food every time. Can’t wait for the Brussels sprout salad to come back.“

“This is the best pizza I have ever had, nice crisp, light crust with just the right amount of toppings, no grease at all. I live in CT and thought no pizza was better than our New Haven ones, boy was I wrong!!! Looking forward to returning……soon!“

“The Pork Belly Bao Buns were freaking amazing!!!!“

“Recently went and although the food and waiter staff were great, we were expecting what we seen on here. There was no performances. An empty space. Apparently there's a 2 hr gap between brunch and dinner. The booking site allowed for a 4pm reservation. When we arrived we were accommodated but looked at funny. We found out that brunch had ended at 3pm. I was really hoping for the full experience I seen here and paid alot and didn't get it.“

“Perfect soup dumplings, other dishes tasty as well, great service! Highly recommend.“

“Delicious dumplings. They're so good. Also, I recommend the garlicky cucumbers for a light & tasty appetizer. Very clean, cozy, polite staff. 5 stars for sure.“

“Best Jhol Momo and Mustang Aloo — a must-try! The Chicken Tikka Masala with garlic naan is chef’s kiss. Unreal. I never get pics because I dive in the moment it hits the table. My weekly go-to!“

“This was our second time going there. Our daughter goes to Pratt and it's walking distance from the school. It's a small diner but friendly staff. On one of the coldest days of winter the host made sure people were not waiting long for tables as best as she could. The food was good and service was really good. I'm glad my daughter has a place like this close to her dorm.“

“Delicious food.Best service.Thank you.“

“Excellent!!! Food, service, atmosphere 👍👍“

“It the best Mexican food I ever eat.“

“Amazing flavor and service“

“The food here was excellent. I got the Pad Thai and it was one of the best I've ever had. Their appetizers are all very good. I'd highly recommend going here on a date or family dinner. Menu is a little pricy but worth it.“

“El mejor taco caribeño, primera vez que lo trato y fue súper bueno. La comida súper buena y el personal súper activo y muy amable . Ustedes todos son súper“

“This Thai restaurant in Brooklyn is absolutely amazing. Every dish tasted authentic and full of flavor. I really loved the decoration and overall atmosphere, and the outdoor garden at the entrance is perfect for photos.

I highly recommend the Mook Kung Curry — it’s so flavorful and goes perfectly with rice. The Thai Style Pork Over Rice was also one of my favorites. The pork belly was fried crispy and delicious. Their cocktails were great too, and very beautiful.

Overall, it was a wonderful experience. I will definitely recommend this place to my friends and come back again!“

“Great Food and Service Fun Atmosphere !“

“Always a fantastic experience at both locations and last night was no different! Staff is always attentive, friendly, and efficient while still creating a cool and relaxing atmosphere. Food is always insane and there’s basically no bad dishes on the menu, although the Moroccan Fish Tagine, and Greek salad with chicken are my favorites. Special shoutout to Eric for the great service and for recommending the labne cheesecake.“
