Terri was my first ever experience with plant based “meat”. It allowed me to explore the dishes I’d never have had a chance to try, being a vegetarian myself. Terri has always been an amazing experience. The taste, the presentation, the variety. It introduced me to the world of vegan substitutes and enhanced vegetarian/vegan cuisine crossing the boundaries of various cuisines. It saddens me to see the permanent closure of my favorite eatery. I’ll be forever indebted to Terri for an experience it has provided me and the new world it has introduced me to. It always will be my favorite eating place.

I drove to Terri to get my usual and was met with the very touching sad announcement on the door, about the closing of their last location. ? It made me so sad to know that one of the best vegan restaurants in NYC is no more. They made some of the best wraps, cupcakes, salads and smoothies you could ever have. I hope they re open at some point.

Great vegan options in that part of Manhattan. The salads are amazing, as is breakfast, and lunch.great crew of folks that work there too.

The most amazing food in the world! Mouthwatering and truly delicious. I love the fact that they are vegan and care for animals, but they still have plastic salad boxes and smoothie cups with straws. Hopefully they will address the plastic issue soon.

A great quick stop for a quick bite.

Review for the breakfast wrap. There was an ungodly amount of hot sauce in there. Like I basically ordered hot sauce with a side of breakfast wrap. I can't tell you what the tofu or the sausage tasted like except for hot sauce flavored. Edit: I now also have heartburn

Love the food options - for all my vegan foodies this is a spot for you. I ordered the bbq pulled pork with potato salad. Talk about yum! It can be a little pricey though, but it was worth it. I just wish sandwiches came with sides. Like, why wouldn't you not want that option? Anyway, you should go here for lunch if you are in the area. The one thing I would say is that this place literally has no seats - which makes for a very awkward eating experience if you order to stay and there are no seat options.

Great vegan items. Everything we tried was full of flavor and felt healthy. It's nice to be able to stuff your face and feel good afterwards. Smoothies are awesome, and the coffee is clearly made by someone who cares.

I Now understand how rich people get to stay so skinny. If you can pay for a delicious healthy vegan burger and shake that tastes like a real Burger and a milkshake then you get to have the best of both worlds. get ready to cut off an arm and a leg to sell it to them because this combo cost me $30. I was treating myself after doing a class at grit boxing so I justified it.

Friendly staff, great food. I purchased a groupon to try them out. Had a chocolate shake and pasta.They were so nice about the redemption. I tipped them 30% to show gratitude. Will return to pay full price next time.
I got a Groupon for this place to check it out--not sure I even realized that it was vegan when I purchased it, but was interested to see how their vegan meats fared. For my meal I got the Southwest chicken sandwich--which was actually pretty tasty, but for about $15 I think it lacked the quality of ingredients and delicacy of sandwich making--as it was thrown together a bit haphazardly. Overall, the sandwich itself was good, but the $15 price tag seems a bit outrageous.

Grabbed the Terri burger and the fish fillet burger for lunch with my husband and so glad we stopped in! The terri burger was made from one of the plant based meats (beyond our impossible, I honestly can't tell the distance lol) and it was delicious. The meat and the cheese worked great together, could not tell it was plant based at all. I was adventurous and ordered the fish fillet and really glad I did! While it was not a complete copy of the classic fish fillet, however for a plant based substitute it was AWESOME!!! The cheese was super melt and stretchy and the fillet looked kind of like fish, but paired with the cheese and sauce was incredibly good. The burgers may not be photogenic but they sure taste amazing. For a grab and go place, i'm reviewing for taste, not presentation. Will be back!!

I saw another review here from my friend Barbara so I decided to give Terri a try. I had the Breakfast Scramble Wrap, and it was the best tofu scramble I ever had, and the hot sauce made it even better! I only wish there's an option to make it a bowl with something like quinoa instead of a wrap.

If you want to try mouth-watering vegan, this is your place. I just happened to find it by accident so a part of me is crying that it's not talked about as much as other vegan chains but this is hands down one of the BEST vegan places I've ever been to. I've shared it with friends and family, some who are extensive meat-lovers and they all agree that it's delicious. Southwestern chicken melt, buffalo chicken, tuna are my FAVs. The fish filet is beautiful. I have to try more of the menu but yeah, peeps, you want to try this place. I hope more stores open up. Maybe in Queens? I know more than a few people who have been hoping for a Queens location!!

OMG!!!!! THE FOOD HERE IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!! It's incredible. The price is worth it. The food is like something youu would eat on a Sunday morning. It gives you extreme nostalgia, it's fulfilling and it's just absolutely beautiful. You will need to close your eyes and just enjoy every flavor and just keep saying "mmmmm" "wow" like it's that good!!!!! I've tried the Bacon Cheddar Chicken Ranch Sandwich and the Southwestern sandwich so far and I'm in love, I can not wait to try more things on the menu.
