Got the bbq chicken bao and it was delicious! The lady working was very friendly and genuine! It’s not often you experience that kind of warm interaction in the city, so that was really nice and appreciated:) Highly recommend this restaurant to vegetarians in the area

Fantastic food and equally as good service!
An absolute vegan treasure ♥️
I loved this place and kept coming back until the end of my trip.
I wish my city had as many vegetarian options as this place does (eight pages of menu items, plus a lunch menu, a brunch menu, and a menu of beverages and desserts).
The staff is super friendly, and the atmosphere is great.
The food was unbelievably tasty.
Even my non-vegetarian friend was astonished by how good the food was.
I hope to come back soon. Kisses from Brazil!

I've been here twice, once with a friend, and another with my partner. Food was so flavorful and well-prepared! I always rave about their vegan cheesecake because it is truly delicious. The staff is also very sweet and attentive. I hope this business continues to prosper.

Really liked this place however this is the second time I’m out of money on Grubhub the first time I gave a benefit of doubt I’m allergic to blueberry but they don’t have the option of plain pancakes so I always put it in the notes make the pancakes plain However the last two times kthey claim there wasn’t notes the first time I let it slide however today not only did I put it in the notes I took screenshots just incase they claimed they didn’t see and again they sent blueberry pancakes I spoke to the owner she claims I have to speak with grub hub because she doesn’t see it on her end I told her I even have a screen shot she proceeded to say that I have to take it up with Grubhub. Grubhub informed me whatever I put in the notes goes to the restaurant directly and it’s nothing they can do about a refund so once again my money is wasted so I won’t be ordering from
Here again
Really cute restaurant with a large offering of delicious vegetarian/vegan food. The staff were extremely welcoming and accommodating, and I had a wonderful experience. Looking forward to my next visit!

Quantum Leap .
My sister Sonia and I entered inside this restaurant. The owner Jenny was exceptionally nice. She went above and beyond to make us feel so welcomed. The food, oh my Lord, was the best tasting meatless eggplant parmesan , i have ever tasted. The side order of salad was amazing. Jenny gave me to taste the mousse from her baked cake. I tell you overall this was a to die for experience of the entire food , place and it was a honor to have met Jenny. I recommend this place in complete totality. WE WILL DEFINETELY RETURN...... oh let's not forget the fries perfect n crispy.

This spot became a priority to try since it's so near where I work. Employees are extremely friendly and helpful, with rapid meal service. Sample several options to taste their range. Our order arrived without waiting and tasted wonderful. This place demonstrates excellence.

My spouse and I discovered this gem merely a couple days ago, as this outstanding restaurant is not listed on the most popular vegan rankings. (This regrettable oversight makes one wonder what the true value of these rankings is...) We tried the Seitan Satai Platter and the Blackberry Cheesecakae; all of them were of exceptional quality. Service and ambiance were equally remarkable: the server (and owner?) is quite cordial and wam without being in the least overbearing, and the old-school jazz that was playing when we visited greatly enhanced the unassuming yet charming decor. We look forward to many more meals at Quantum Leap!

This hidden gem deserves to be discovered by more people. Quantum Leap sits in a perfect spot with helpful staff. Their meals were consistently enjoyable, don't misinterpret. The staff provide excellent service during all my meals. This spot has my complete support.

A favorite restaurant of mine. Plentiful vegan options, unlimited coffee, and warm and friendly service. I miss the space of the west village location but thankful
quantum leap is still with us on the UES!

Quantum Leap is a place I’ve visited many times, a place I’ve brought many friends, and it’s always consistently fresh and delicious. The Malaysian curry red snapper is absolutely amazing, as were the burgers, soba noodles, soups and salmon dishes. It’s a small place with a simple atmosphere, never very loud, even when full. The waitress is always by herself and she does an amazing job taking care of so many tables on her own. For healthy, vegan food I’d come back here again and again!

Nestled at 60th and 1st, Quantum Leap Café offers a uniquely nostalgic experience. The moment you enter, you’re transported to another time, not only by the charming ambiance but also by the music - timeless recordings from Billie Holiday to Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone help to create the perfect backdrop. The menu is as compelling as it is diverse, catering beautifully to those who enjoy fish, chicken, and plant-based cuisine. Each dish is thoughtfully prepared and consistently delicious. Whether you follow a pescatarian and vegetarian diet like me or an omnivore diet like my husband, you will not be disappointed by the delicious food. The warm and attentive service by Caroline and the other members of their exceptional team, completes the experience. Quantum Leap Café is not just a neighborhood spot but one of New York’s true treasures - and a personal favorite.
