“This food is hands down 20/10! The customer service was wonderful & they’re super welcoming and friendly. Their Insalata Di Gamberi was perfect! I don’t rave about salads but the shrimp was very flavorful and all the ingredients are FRESH! Their pastas are house made and you can purchase as well. I got the busa pasta with the assorted seafood 20/10! Dessert was tiramisu which is so rich and fresh! Everything is fresh and delicious a REAL GEM I highly recommend & will definitely be back. Franchesca & Juan are great with wonderful energy!Vegetarian options: YesKid-friendliness: Yes“
“Nice atmosphere, really tasty and cheap meals. We had lunch, 2 people for $26 which is great for the area. Very generous plates and burritos, with drink included and little carrot cake for desert. Only if you really eat a lot will be able to finish the plate! Recommend!!“
“The easiest place to eat vegetarian. It’s so flavorful and everything has been 10/10. I tried their cashew ricotta and pear with honey drizzle, amazing. Their lentil soup; amazing. Their cauliflower stew, so good. Everything is amazing here. If you’re looking for a switch up on your diet, I can’t think of a better place. Feels amazing to eat something tasty but not feel bloated and tired after. So good! New favorite local spot“
“Ate at spice symphony whilst visiting New York and was delighted ! The staff were exceptionally welcoming and helpful, offering suggestions for appetisers and information to assist choosing entrees. The food was lovely, great flavour and good quality. My fish curry was just perfect. I’d certainly recommend.“
“Perfect start to the day! We stayed here 4 or 5 times during our week in NY for breakfast. We tested porridge, acai bowls and smoothies. The "Hell's Kitchen Sink" tastes awesome (with peanut butter and cocoa nips.) The smoothies Boo Berry, Gymbuddy and Energy Boost are each made with almond or coconut milk and protein powder .We loved everything! The service is very friendly and There are only a few seats, so we were there early (about 8 / 9h) and had no problems getting a small table.Now we are back home and miss the delicious bowls!“
“Cute tiny cafe with delicious, gourmet health made completely from scratch. The owner/chef is very professional, quick yet thorough and careful. We ordered a smoothie, veggie empanada, Mediterranean salad, veggie bowl with egg and a falafel wrap. The 2 large fried eggs were cooked medium to perfection as requested. Every bite was powerful and delicious, our toes were dancing while we ate!“
“I love playa bowls. It’s so yummy. Literally try to get it as much as possible plus it’s conveniently located near my school so it’s the best.Kid-friendliness: It’s the prefect area to get your kids a nice and refreshing bowl. I occasionally go with my nephew and it’s such a good atmosphere.“
“I loved the vibe of the place and the staff were super friendly! Went there with a friend for lunch and although I’ve been to many playa bowl locations, I really liked the decoration and seating in this one. The staff made our bowls quickly and the person working the register was very patient with us as we decided what bowl we were going to get. Always recommend going here for a sweet treat with fresh fruits!“
“Adorable, delicious and friendly! Ordered their out-of-this-world chocolate chunk cookies for a birthday party and they were a huge hit! Staff is great-- Jolanta in particular has such a wonderful, can-do attitude and is always smiling and welcoming customers by name.This place is a winner!“
“This has to be the Best Smoothie I’ve had in while thanks to Jose aka Jp. l found him very helpful, loved how he took his time to explain the product’s that would help benefit my needs. Five stars truly isn’t enough for the amazing customer service he offered.“
“Very healthy and fresh selections. I tried their orange juice, iced coffee, and egg and cheese on a bagel. Very satisfying. Also had a blueberry muffin with coffee another time, which was quite good. Looking forward to trying a smoothie. Great vegan, vegetarian, and keto options. Friendly, good service.“
“One of my favorite places on the UWS, Morningside Heights. Dining here for years now and always have a great meal! Food always fresh, delicious and the staff is great. I do enjoy the 72nd Street and Central Park location but I’ll always love the original.“
“I love this place! I stop in almost every morning for some gluten-free baked goods, and my son likes to get green juice on our way home from school. This place has loads of healthy, fresh options that fit my dietary requirements and restrictions. I have an autoimmune disorder that is extremely sensitive to what I eat, so that usually means restaurants aren’t an option for me. This is a wonderful exception to that, and it’s right around the corner. Favorites at our house: all the rice bowls, the salmon burger, & the vegan beets wrap. Juices: Prodigy Blend and Go Green. And of course, the zucchini bread (they know who I am!)“
“Green Symphony is a little gem of a place to eat. Close to Time Sq and Broadway, it’s one of the few small independents that serve great food at reasonable prices. The owners and staff are cheerful and the atmosphere is warmly welcoming. If you’re in NYC, go see for yourself!!!“
“Toastique is one of the best places for a healthy breakfast/brunch.Their menu boasts an enticing selection of gourmet toast, juices, smoothies, bowls and much more, each crafted with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavors.I had the pleasure of trying Greek toast and Tomato Burrata toast, they were both top-notch. The smoothies are too good that revitalized my senses and left me energized.Whether you are a health enthusiast or someone who appreciates good food, Toastique is not to be missed.“
“Got the power bowl which has protein powder mixed in with the acai. I also got honey which was an extra $1.50 (crazy for a literal drizzle of honey). Ended up being kind of expensive, $17 for an acai bowl is not ideal. But it was good acai. Nice and smooth, good flavor. Liked how there was granola on the bottom layer as well as the top.“
“I tried the food for the 1st ever and OMG. I got the small plate, 1 protein, 1 grain and 2 sides. It was so delicious and filling. The smoothies are great and juices. I highly recommend trying this place out.It was just remodeled and super clean.“
“I highly recommend the sea moss factory! After the first month I can really notice a difference in my energy levels. So many delicious flavors, I really can’t wait to try them all. They have some of the sweetest staff that is willing to help and answer any questions you have at all times. Cant wait to return!“
“As someone stuck at home battling COVID and its symptoms, a smoothie from Playa Bowls was a bright spot in my otherwise lousy day. Full of flavor, Playa Bowls has a nice assortment of smoothies and açaí bowls that can serve as both a sweet treat or a nutritious meal. DoorDash allowed me to order from home and get my smoothie in less than 20 minutes, which is a huge win. I'll definitely be back (hopefully in person)!“
“that SPOT. Justin been holding it down for years with delicious patties (both meat and vegetarian). also the smoothies are the bomb! he only blends fresh ingredients and if you don't know what you like he is more than happy to suggest a good mix. i'm from Crown Heights and this is my go to place in Harlem.Vegetarian options: patties: pumpkin, callaloo, spinach, lentil“
“The Karma Bowl is a dream come true of having multiple Indian dishes in one plate so you can have all those different flavors together! It was so good and had fresh veggies as garnish as well. The garlic bread was also very well-flavored and buttery. This is my top lunch spot for takeout.“
“Me and my crew been coming here for a while . Food is good. Greens are all fresh , But what makes us come back is Maouloud , this gentleman has positive energy all the time and adds vibrance to the store, makes your ordinary salad not boring and had best suggestions.“
“Great place and service. Price is decent for the quality. Both my partner and I went and got a berry bowl and a French vanilla simple shake. I was slurping for every last drop with the shake. It’s just the right amount of sweetness and is smooth. My partner loves the berry bowl, she too voted for 5 stars. Love that there’s no dairy in anything. Definitely will revisit :)“
“Very impressed with the freshness of the salad and the quality of the proteins. We ordered 2 trays of steak and they were cooked perfectly. And that honey basil dressing was addicting! Schericse was a pleasure to work with and was very accommodating. Whoever said healthy foods are not tasty never tried Honeybrains!“
“Mucho Mango bowl is fantastic. Tried it for the first time and kept me coming back for more. I also really liked the blueberry granola they add into the bowl. Decor is cool feels like a tropical vibe. Fast friendly service had me in & out. Looking forward to trying their other bowls & smoothies.“
“If you ever want a tasty snack go here. They have all types of smoothie type beverages & fruit bowls. My bowl of choice is the Nica Bowl. It's pretty much like smashed up banana on the lower half of the bowl. The rest of it is filled with slices of strawberry & banana, crunchy granola, tiny bits of chocolate chips, peanut butter & walnuts. Its a small bowl but it'll definitely hold you over til your next meal. It's so good :)“
“A consistently delicious meal. I love almost everything I get here. I'm actually pretty obsessed with the chicken salad wrap! I miss the old paint job though, since the bright white is less comfortable to sit in. I also wish there was more room inside, it's pretty crammed. Overall, a good spot for a takeout of a quick healthy meal. The juices are delicious and the seafood salad is great too. My husband really likes the Buffalo chicken wrap.“
“Such a delicious lunch that was so welcoming after a weekend of eating & drinking Shared the pizza with my two cousins as a starter and had the seasonal salad. My only sadness is that this is an hour away from my house that I won’t be able to frequent more often“
“Been going here for the better part of five years and this is the best Just Salad on the upper west side.Big shutouts to Kashif and Gabriella because they take care of their customers from start to finish with great conversations along the way.“
“Located on 3rd Avenue and 93rd, this store has been around for many, many, years. It's a real neighborhood gem. They are doing the best they can now, but I encourage it's new and established customers to purchase as many items there as they need. Raj, the manager is highly knowledgeable about the products, He knows his customers and caters to us. He is kind and generous and has given special attention to customers in the neighborhood. He visited my friend in the hospital after a major operation, with treats. Food For Health sells a vast variety of items including organic veggies, coffee, tea, dried and canned goods, dairy, smoothies, fresh peanut butter, frozen meals, snacks, spices, vitamins, etc, etc., etc.“
“Received my second 10 meal lunch/dinner meal prep set today. Everything I am seeing looks healthy and on-point. I requested sauces on the side and less sodium than my first set, and the team followed my instructions.I look forward to ordering again in the future.“
“I've missed this place so much. It's individually owned, and the food is great here. The chefs know how to make it healthy and still tasty. I wish I could put this one in my pocket and it travel with me. A must go to when in town.“
“I get a variety of different things. But usually, for me, it's always the same. Want I don't like it when getting those same items daily, The price changes via throughout the day or daily. I will cut back on going to this store. I totally understand prices going up and changing due to the economy, but this throughout the day or daily thing or weekly no. Not having it. Like you guys, but taking a break.“
“My first time visiting just salad and had an amazing experience. I usually avoid places where you can create your own cause I don’t know the choices but Tivo did an amazing job walking me through the process and making sure I was able to create a delicious meal. He’s super sweet and wrote nice things on my bowl. It felt really nice having such a positive experience after a long day at work. Will definitely be visiting this location more!“
“Füdgarten is an absolute standout in every way! The service here is consistently warm and amazing, with a team that goes above and beyond to ensure both the food and the customer experience are of the highest standards. I recently made a 2-hour drive just to try their Thursday special, the Aztec Chicken, and let me tell you, it was worth every mile! The chicken was expertly seasoned and cooked to perfection--tender and flavorful. The bed of quinoa it rested on was like a soft cloud, adding a wonderful texture to the dish. Every component of the Aztec Chicken was meticulously crafted, resulting in a dish that's not just delicious but a perfect harmony of ingredients. As a bonus, they surprised me with a complimentary protein cookie, which turned out to be the best I've ever had! I highly recommend Füdgarten to everyone in the area. Whether it's for their exceptional Thursday specials or their overall commitment to culinary excellence, you won't regret giving them a try.“
“Green Garden aka Brother Roy. I've been going to this store for as long as I can remember. Everyone behind the counter has knowledge of what is available in the store and you can pick their brains about what ails you and what to take to treat or cure your ailments. One of my personal favorites is the Cashew Pep. It is what it's called and does what it is. Lol a nice cashew infused drink that gives you a much needed boost of energy. A burst of energy. A pep! Located in the Bronx, on White Pains Rd, off Gunhill Rd. Definitely a hidden gem. Just don't get too much Cashew Pep. Leave some for me!! See you there!!“

“If only everything healthy for you tasted this terrific! Big and tasty bowls with multiple options. Good if you're a non-meat eater too. Large and clean spot with plenty of seating. Nice staff. Bathroom too. Oh, and that carrot cake for dessert is so good.“
“This place I hold close to my heart. I may not have time to go there for awhile and whenever I return I'm welcomed with warm words " Welcome home" when I leave " Don't stay gone so long" the food is freshly cooked upon ordering. You will get an earful of healthy advice . When I first started going here way before Covid you could eat in , even though you can't do that now it's worth a visit . Words can't express the appreciation I have for Natural Way Cafe . Go check it out .“
“Great food here. I come here pretty often during the day time for acai bowls and they're always A+. The staff is very kind and they prepare the food in a timely manner. I'd recommend this place to anyone in Astoria looking for an acai bowl.“
“I always order a bowl with pork and various healthy additions. The pork is so tasty and all of the vegetables and other toppings are very fresh. The portions are huge. One bowl usually lasts for two meals. Prices are great. Friendly service and clean place. Amazing all around. This place is an underrated gem in Astoria on Broadway between 21st and the river! Not a dine in spot. (Since Covid, I think…they’ve removed all the tables inside.) Get takeout and enjoy your meal at Socrates Sculpture Park nearby.“
“So nice to be able to get quality organic food that included meats. The price point was also very reasonable and the seating was comfortable. Everyone was kind. They even offered us samples of the soup.Dietary restrictions: Gluten-Free / Carnivore“
“Ordered door dash and this place is so yummy! Right now, I'm sick so I was craving a smoothie to make me feel better. I ordered the fruit smoothie and it was so delicious. For my meal, I ordered a chicken Cesar wrap and it was sooooo good. The wrap is huge! I could barely finish one half. Will definitely be ordering here more often. Loved my smoothie and meal. Thanks for a great meal!!“
“A bit hard to find initially but easy to get to once you figure out where it is. The store was empty, had to wait five-ten minutes for a worker to appear. I got the Blue Magik, aside from noticeably unblended banana chunks, I enjoyed the smoothie.“
“All foods they provide are seem delicious and I had some all were very good and healthy!Parking: There are parking space back of the store.Kid-friendliness: They have child chIrsWheelchair accessibility: Have handicapped bathroom and easy access.“
“I know this is a Dig and as usual, their food is good, but I'd like to mention that their portions were good. Sometimes you go to a fast-slow-health-food chain and you're not sure what to expect (portion size, price, quality). This was a standard quality, all around great lunch. I arrived in the late afternoon and there was no line and the food was still fresh. If you love mac n cheese, their version never disappoints. Came hungry and left full.“
“This place is super cute. Unfortunately, I thought the bowls were a bit too sweet for me. But, nonetheless, we enjoyed them. Would like to come more often, but will have to reduce my visits to reduce my sugar intake. Everyone that works here is wonderful and nice.“
“I’ve been here three times for the same meal . I’ve had the Cajun salmon wrap the first two times my meal was spectacular. Most recently, the seasoning of the salmon changed not sure if they adjusted the recipe . However still good just not as flavorful. They have a healthy menu in the south Bronx which is appreciated considering these neighborhoods are normally food deserts.There are a variety of juice and smoothie options definitely stop in if you’re looking for a healthy option .“
“This Playa Bowls is inside a gym which is inside an apartment building. Five floors up or an elevator ride up, then pass by a front desk and some mire walk. It is pricey but worth it. Portions are huge so you either should be hungry or share it. Staff is helpful.“
“I order playa almost every Saturday morning and a couple of days at night… today I ordered the same that I do everytime and the bowl looks like the person who made was rushing, the bowl has less fruit, less base, less everything… and is sad because I love this place and now I feel I just waste money :(“
