Deli classics but vegan! Really nice spot to pick a sandwich and head to the park to eat it.

This was INCREDIBLE. Staff was friendly and the food was even better!

In terms of well-made (veganized) classic NY deli food, they do it really well! The staff is friendly. They display vegan products in the front of their refrigerated cases, and the menu is wide ranging. The Prime Roots products were pretty tasty! Bacon egg and cheese was a solid option and it comes with a hash brown. I appreciate Plantega, but I also think options like this deli are great in that they can veer off the set menu. This place showed some special items on offer, like vegan chorizo. It's a great option in a neighborhood that is lacking vegan choices.

The name of this place is a bit confusing. Not everything is vegan. This is clear on Happy Cow but not other websites like Postmates. We ordered some items online and received some non-vegan items. I could have avoided this if I’d looked it up first, but with a name like Vegan Deli and appearing in vegan listings, it seemed to be all vegan. Was disappointed to find non-vegan stuff in my Vegan Deli order, and I wish the distinction was made clearer when ordering.

They charge you more than it says on the menu

The vegan breakfast platter was amazing

Be good with love and much knowledge is the reason for why I come to Omar and his cook Mario. I am very aware of why everyone that I know comes to Vegan Deli 1650 3th ave New York

Great food and smoothies. One of the better chopped cheese heroes I've had in the city & best in the UES. The night staff is always very friendly and the place is always clean. Definitely come and try it, it's worth checking out.

Hands down the best service, they greet you with a delightful energy and always look for your satisfaction. Food is great as always with various options. Such friendly environment overall, and the worker named Omar has a great sense of humor.
Best deli in the area, sandwiches are amazing and Omar is a friendly host. If you see the cat say hi

Can’t speak about their vegan foods, but if they can’t get an egg and cheese sandwich right (thrice), I sincerely have my doubts.
