“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.“
“Love this place. I used to live nearby and the place was in a different space a lot smaller. Now is a very nice open restaurant. Food is fantastic, service is great. They allow dogs inside. I was very surprised for this and will be back with my furry friend.“
“Ordered the Charred Chicken Bowl, and I must say, it was phenomenal. It had a flavour that was unbeknownst to me in a bowl. The coconut ranch mixed with the habanero sauce, really do create a unique flavour profile. Also, the chicken marination was something that was brand new to me. Do give it a try!“
“Phenomenal vegan fare but its so much more than that.Vlad is an excellent host who really focuses on a fostering a real sense of community, encouraging evenings that focus on muscicians, writers, activists or just hanging out and having a good time!“
“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“
“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“
“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!!“
“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.“
“I decided to check this place out before work. I got the strawberry banana in a large. It was smooth and delicious. The cashier was sweet and friendly also. I will definitely be back. It is pretty cool you get points for joining on Cash app“
“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!“
“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.“
“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 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.“
“The staff here is extremely helpful and kind. I had an Oakberry coupon that wasn’t applicable to this location but they still chose to honor it for me as a courtesy in order to save me the walk to another location. Much appreciated and the smoothie was delicious too!“
“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!)“

“Walked in on a cold day looking for delicious warm drink and was greeted by Flow who welcomed us very well! Gave us an overview of what's offered and Tended to Us wonderfully. The drinks, Matcha for Life, London Fog, and Golden Milk Latte were super on point! Definitely will be back again! Bless!“
“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.“
“An inexpensive spot next to the Marriott Hotel. I came in and had the vesper martini from the happy hour and the burger sliders. The sliders are good despite them being on an English muffin. The bartender was attentive and nice which I enjoyed. The space seems pretty spacious. I would come back to try a full dinner!“
“I don't live or work in the area but I bike to this Just Salad because it has the best vibes. Starting with JewJew, who is the best, and Ashley, Stefanie, and the whole team is super fantastic. Really appreciate you all making every person's day, including my own. Keep up the awesome work!“
“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.“
“In my recent experience with the "Mocha Muscle" beverage, which boasted a blend of banana, vanilla protein, cold-brewed coffee, almond milk, I found it to be an overall pleasurable drink. While the concoction was notably good, my preference leans towards a more pronounced coffee taste. I sensed a slight imbalance, with the banana overpowering the coffee undertones. Despite this observation, the drink held its own, showcasing a commendable fusion of flavors, particularly the harmonious combination of vanilla proteinThe Koa Bowl, a delightful creation comprising granola, cashews, flax seeds, coconut flakes, and cocoa nibs, left a lasting impression with its delectable medley of textures and tastes. The synergy of the crunchy granola, creamy cashews, and the subtle crunch of flax seeds, enhanced by the sweetness of coconut flakes and the richness of cocoa nibs, created a memorable and flavorful bowl. Each component contributed to a well-balanced and satisfying culinary experience.Moving on to the "Kale Smoothie," featuring organic kale, banana, pineapple, honey, coconut milk, and apple juice, this drink managed to surpass my expectations despite my initial hesitation towards kale and spinach in beverages. The result was a surprisingly tasty concoction that effectively masked the assertive flavors of kale and spinach, providing a sweet and refreshing taste. The inclusion of banana, pineapple, honey, and coconut milk contributed to the overall palatability of the smoothie, making it a noteworthy choice even for those less inclined towards greens in their drinks.Lastly, the "Green Goddess" lived up to its name by fulfilling its intended purpose of cleansing. This drink, with its combination of cleansing ingredients, left me with a sense of rejuvenation and ensured a thorough "cleaning out."In conclusion, despite a minor preference for a stronger coffee note in the Mocha Muscle drink, the overall experience with these offerings was highly positive. The Koa Bowl and Kale Smoothie stood out for their exceptional flavors and creative ingredient combinations, while the Green Goddess left a lasting impression with its detoxifying effects.“
“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!“
“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.“
“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)!“
“One of my favorite spots in Williamsburg! I’ve been there 4 times and i’ll come back again. There's a great selection of healthy food there. My favorite protein is wild caught salmon, ohh it’s amazing. And also I can’t help but mention the sweet potato fries, it’s so delicious! Definitely recommend this place!“
“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“

“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!“
“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.“
“Wajid at playa bowls macdougal street always delivers. His customer service is incredible - he always goes above and beyond. As a UK citizen i’m not usually a fan of tipping culture but i’m always happy to tip at playa bowls. Especially when being served by Wajid!“
“Playa Bowls is a great place to grab a quick and healthy lunch. I usually get an açaí bowl; today I got an oatmeal. Everyone who’s helped me has always been helpful, easy going, and happy to make substitutions on a dime (ex: strawberries for blueberries). I cant speak for all locations but Playa Bowls at 27th and 7th in NYC is quick and efficient as well. I can be in and out in less than five minutes, which is crucial for me. I always know I will get quick, accurate service and fresh food, so it’s a frequent lunch destination.“
“I come here multiple times a week, it's always amazing service & fresh food. I often have Sherman, Lucy & yaritza serving me! They always have a smile & mix the salad dressing in perfectly. Most salads in the neighborhood are over priced, undersized & often have to much dressing but here at just salad you really get what you're paying for with amazing service 10 out of 10 times. As a business owner in the neighborhood I know the importance of consistency & customer service & this place has it all!“
“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“
“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 :)“
“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 :)“
“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.“
“This is the best Just Salad location I’ve been to so far. Natalia, Josue and Carissa are so sweet and hospitable. They made the experience enjoyable and made sure I was well taken care of every time I go. Love coming here. Super clean too!“
“Food tastes AMAZING! And what makes it even better? It's healthy! I usually eat junk, fast food, and just have had unhealthy eating habits, but locanut makes it easy, everything in their menu is super healthy. Thanks for getting me back on track to a healthy lifestyle :)“
“Primarily a Mexican snack bar, highly recommended for a quick lunch. The atmosphere is also quite funny. We actually went there twice during our stay in NYC.We can't say anything about the shop with nutritional supplements for fitness.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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 :(“
“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.“
“We ate there regularly during our stay in NY.The service is very friendly and the food is fresh and delicious!We had the best breakfast rolls (special offer) of our lives there: At Mc D it would be the Egg Mc Muffin with bacon.The seating area upstairs was ok, but not very inviting. More is possible here!“
