Favorite vegan spot in Brooklyn - Edit
I absolutely love this place and can not pass it up when I am in the neighborhood! The food quality is always impeccable and everything I’ve ever had there was yummy and fresh. Used to love the buffet the most, which is unfortunately not a thing since Covid, but still the menu options are just as highly recommended. Their tea blends are amazing and they always have a great desert on hand for my sweet tooth. 10 out of 10!
Read morePros: Big menu, Yummy deserts , Amazing tea selection

Great buffet and burrito! - Edit
One of us had the buffet and the other the Jungle Burrito, and we both loved our meals. The buffet has several salads and warm dishes and is sold by the pound. It was really excellent. Perfect for eating in or taking out. The Mexican Lasagna on the buffet was great! Will definitely go again.

Vege in Greenpoint - Edit
Bright and airy space, very cozy. I went for lunch and had the buffet, it was very good. A bit expensive maybe but probably normal for NY.

Amazing food!! - Edit
This is one of my favorite restaurants in the world! It’s so healthy and fresh. I always get the buffet and my favorite days are Tuesday (Indian) and Friday (Mexican). It’s always good and I can’t recommend it enough. 😃

Terrific! - Edit
This unassuming spot is home to some of the best (and healthiest) vegan food in this neck of Brooklyn. This was my first visit, so I had the lunch buffet which included both hot and cold selections, plus all the free water you can drink. The food was fresh and delicious. Even more impressive - it was neither too salty nor oily/greasy. There is a made-to-order menu as well as juices, smoothies and other beverages. I definitely intend to return to try more selections.

Solid food nice buffet - Edit
Good foods and nice vibes. Their self serve buffet priced by weight is great but be careful it can add up quickly. The coconut curry was a big filling portion for the price and very good

Awesome and tasty - Edit
We thoroughly enjoyed having dinner here. My friends got the buffet and loved it. I got the Polish mushroom potato tacos (gluten-free) and there were so good, I have the best post-dinner taste in my mouth right now, and filling. Comes with a salad or lentil soup which is very good.

What I needed and more - Edit
This 100% vegan cafe is so delicious for your eyes and your stomach. The macaroni cheese dish was incredible and super filling. The staff were friendly albeit a bit quiet. The prices are fair and there are plenty of options. They also cater to children's portions and have a selection of cakes that can be bought by the slice or as a whole. Would definitely recommend and if I'm ever in the area again will have to come back to
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, Really beautiful art work all round, Decent prices and portion sizes
Cons: Seats are a tad uncomfortable, Staff are quiter than I personally would have like

Cute Vegan spot - Edit
I've stopped by several times and have yet to be disappointed. The beet burger is to die for and they have a vegan cheese option (Daiya). The lentil soup is simple but filling and the salads are filled with veggies with great dressings to choose from. The buffet has tons of options at a reasonable price with water infused with lemon and cucumber for free on the side.

wow! - Edit
This place is absolutely wonderful. The staff greet you with a friendly hello as the meditative tunes put you in a serene mood. The place is tastefully decorated with colorful art, many plants, and nice all wood communal tables. Then you get taken in by the immense buffet that is served by the pound, each day different than the next. When I went it was Indian themed and there were so many delicious options that I accidentally (or purposely) hit 2lbs on the scale! The food was incredibly well done and not heavy in the processed proteins department. The dishes rivaled any Indian restaurant I’ve been to in the past. I managed to finish the plate and am now stuffed! They also offer an extensive menu with smoothies, sandwiches, and other entrees. A further plus is this place is kosher certified and caters!
Read morePros: great atmosphere, so many amazing options
Cons: I ate too much :-)

The place is really good, food is must of the times delicious... not always consistent there’s really good days and other ones all right.
Read moreThe buffet is worth it but... the minimum for credit card is an exaggeration 15 dls. What shouldn’t be allowed but I understand.
So... don’t forget to bring cash!!!
Pros: health delicious food, nice staff , good service

The food is amazing! - Edit
They gave a smorgasbord that smelled and looked amazing. You pay by the pound and you can eat there or get it to go. I was with someone who recommended the Jungle Burrito so I went with that. It was by far the best burrito I’ve ever had. The vegan sour cream was to die for. I was also told to try the lentil soup as you get soup or salad as part of the meal. It also was the best lentil soup I’ve ever had. Amazing flavor. Very hearty. This place is a real find whether you are vegan or not. Delicious food. Wonderful service!

Gluten free selections - Edit
Went to the PS 1/MOMA museum so this cute little place was only one stop away by train. We went at an off peak hour, about 3pm. The vegan buffet was not all you can eat, it was by the pound and a little sparse. My friend wanted to be adventurous and did try the buffet but he was not that impressed. Might have been better earlier in the day. The buffet would not be the best choice for gluten free folk as well since the best selection looked like it would be the seitan dish. On the other hand, I had a wonderful gluten free "tempeh ruben" sandwich, and I am not that much of a big sandwich fan. I also had a lovely coconut shake. They were all out of desserts, was looking forward to the gluten free ones! certainly worth a try when you are in the Greenpoint area!
Read morePros: Nice community tables., Clean, Gluten free selections

We elected to try the all you can eat, Sunday brunch during our last trip to New York. We were staying in Manhattan, and decided that it would be a nice walk, and a worthwhile meal at the end of our journey. We weren't overly impressed. It wasn't bad, but certainly was NOT worth the walk. Additionally, we had our two year old with us. We aren't typically charged for him to eat off of our plates (as with most 2 year old children, his appetite is still developing), in this case, they were going to charge us full price for him. We elected to get him something from the kid's menu instead -- of course, he didn't eat it. Nevertheless, the food wasn't bad, just not overly flavorful.
