“My family and I have been coming here from the day the doors opened. And the service and products have remained impeccable. Every time I go I’m greeted with a smile and most times they already know my order. The thing I love the most is actually everything! Keep up the great work. A forever customer ?“
“I called the restaurant today on my daughter’s birthday (2/26/24) to ask for a table for 5 people including two children. I was told there’s not enough seating for everyone but they would gladly accommodate us at the event space next door. I agreed. My family arrived at around 6 and the two ladies took our order and Yvonne took a few minutes to prepare the table for us. When she led us into the room we were so delighted and astounded! The place was so beautifully decorated, and she managed it in a very short time! All the food was delicious! She made my daughter feel so special, she danced with the girls and helped cut the cake! I was very lucky and blessed to have been given this wonderful memory! It was such a pleasure to meet Yvonne, she is so sweet and has such a good heart! I will definitely be back again soon!Dietary restrictions: Totally Vegan and plant based menu.Kid-friendliness: Yvonne was so sweet with my girls.“
“Mother and Son Brunch … just because? at this quaint, tucked away secret gem in Queens. Truly the first place that I,ve found in Queens that does BOTH vegan and carnivore options WELL! If you’re like me where your household has a little bit of everything going on, this is your spot for breakfast, brunch or lunch! They are a vegetarian diner with an extensive menu so lots of good eats to choose from that are not salty or oily and well seasoned ?We had fresh carrot juice made to order, the pancake special with plant based bacon, eggs, home fries, sour dough toast, fresh fruit and avocado. Magnificent! They also have vegan desserts like apple crumb pie, frosted cookie crunch and so much more. The service was wonderful and we felt right at home. There is also a lovely gift shop right next door that has some unique knick knacks. Tell ‘em Avery sent you?Downside is parking is sparse so Uber or subway if you can. Note their hours are 8am - 3pm, closed on Tuesdays and are open on Sundays. Bon Apetit ?Vegetarian options: Tons of vegetarian options. You will not be disappointed.Dietary restrictions: Perfect Vegan spot with lots of optionsParking: You might have to circle a couple times to find parking as this location is in a residential neighborhood.“
“I visited this spot for the first time yesterday 3/7/2024 and was blown away by the fresh and delicious food I ordered and received. I had the jerk chicken bowl, tuna wrap and to top it off, a green leaf juice. Each item was very well portioned and made with fresh ingredients. The ambience was welcoming with the most friendly staff. Green Leaf Bistro was definitely needed in the Liberty, Queens area adding value to healthy eating. My new go-to spot from now on!Highly recommended!“
“I enjoyed the natural juices which includes the Sweet Greens which consists of fresh vegetables and fruits. The Strawberry Sunset is also another one of my fav. along with the Grind & Shine for a quick picker upper in the morning. Sandwich- healthy toast of turkey with kale & other veggies.“
“Best spot in queens to get your açaí bowl. I highly recommend. It’s so delicious and worth the trip. Very good quality and affordable prices. Let’s keep supporting the small local businesses! You won’t regret it. Excellent customer service and experience all the time.“
“My go to place for bubble tea. Cute little boba shop with wonderful and kind staff. Very inviting store with tables and chairs to chill with friends or to just wind down for a bit. The paw-like waffles with custard are so delicious, fluffy and cute. Can't wait to try different types of drinks.“
“The pina colada smoothy was great, did not care for the jerk chicken asian crunch salad that much. Also tried the shrimp burger, that was good. Enjoyed the music while waiting and food prices were not bad.Parking: Depends on the day, otherwise it should be fine.“
“Great place to enjoy meals with friends, family or solo. Friendly and efficient staff.Lots of delicious food and drink offerings.I've never been disappointed with the food.Vegetarian options: Fresh vegetable & fruit drinks to die for.Kid-friendliness: Very relaxed and comfortable seatsWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Love love love this place! Kevon Is extremely helpful and knowledgable. My wife and I walked a way with a lifetime of health eating and discipline advice and guidance. I would absolutely recommend this place. In addition the smoothies taste amazing.“
“Roast & Co is a welcoming local cafe for delicious food and drinks. It is a great place to read a book, do some work, meet with friends, or to grab a quick coffee before hopping on the LIRR. I especially love the smoothie bowl for breakfast!“
“I had stomach issues and visited Royal Way on a whim. Dr. Mary spoke to me and recommended some supplements and I am proud to say the issues are in the past. The staff is great, and Dr. Mary is very knowledgable. This is now my go to place for all natural remedies.“
“They have healthy vegan food which is rare in this neighborhood. On top of that the vegan food tastes identical like real meat. Highly recommend Citrus chicken made with vegan meat , Plant base delight with quinoa. Feel inside out healthy at this restaurant and look for their delivery service of my everyday meal.“
“This was my first time, I just so happened to be sitting in my car across the street. I decided to try it. I had tomato bisque and a byo bowl. The soup was the absolute best. I'm serious. I should have bought more. The bowl was so good. I ate every drop of everything. I also got the strawberry basil lemonade. I'd never had this combination before, but it was so good. Not too sweet, not too sour. Just right in the middle. It was refreshing. I will definitely be back again. My bowl had chicken. No fat on the grilled chicken. I hate the fat and gristle. It was perfect. Not dry. And the sauce, it was a perfect addition.“
“This is suuuuuuch a cool spot, highly recommended cafe and ceramics workshop, you can see the ceramics pieces made by the owner and her kid, they're just unbearably cute oh and coffee is good tooKid-friendliness: ⭐⭐⭐? even offer babysitting on weekendsWheelchair accessibility: Step-free entry“
“Finally made it in! Menu was unique and exciting! Globish was patient, kind, informative. Store was very clean. Lots of great products available for purchase. Tried the Water Pill juice & the Miracle Recovery smoothie. I absolutely loved both! Parking is free and available on street or in lot on Park Ave. Cant wait to go back!“
“If you haven't been to Claudette's, you're missing out! Healthy, delicious foods and pastries. Wonderful healthy drinks, hummus and other treats. I go every Saturday for their "green" drink! 10 out of 10 everyone. Associates are the BEST!Ask for Ro! ?“
“Went there yesterday and the atmosphere was amazing, the co-owner Ashari was super nice and welcoming. He made sure everyone's order was correct and explained the ingredients that went in acai bowls and how the juice was made. Excellent service and products.10/10 ?“
“I came here with my friends and I absolutely love this restaurant. Service is great, restaurant is clean, and most importantly, the food is just amazing. I will be coming back for more and will be bringing my family next. Thank you El Toro for the great experience!“
“The worker there, magnificent! Smelled a little like must (a lot) but nothing that would stop me from getting my kale, spinach, papaya, kiwi, blueberries, raspberry, peanut butter, spirulina, oreos, butterfingers, ginger, sea moss and apple smoothie!“
“Came here for lunch. They have multiple healthy options for a quick Grab n Go style meal. The juices are well thought out and balanced. The Forever Young is delicious. They have been apart of the local community for many many years. I’m enjoying the energy boost as I shop across the street.“
Bubble Tea • $
“This location is AMAZING!!! The manager Lily is very kind and knowledgeable about the products. The staff are all so nice. You are always greeted with a smile! The place is clean. I highly recommend even if you go to another location to stop by and see the difference! You will be back!“
“I love this place, the owners are extremely nice, and even if I don't come in for a while they remember me and what I usually order. I've had a few sandwiches form here but the shrimp po boy sandwich is one of the best sandwiches I've ever had and I get it almost every time I go.“
“Shaggy was very accommodating to my needs being that I'm disabled, he & his staff are top tier on a customer service level.Definitely exceeded my expectations, he went above and beyond which is much appreciated.Much♥️ to everyone there, continued success to you!!“
“Wow! So delicious, the whole family loved it! The fruit is sweet and fresh. The matcha ice cream was very good but what I was most impressed by was the coconut ice cream! It was soft and sweet but not overbearing like unnatural or artificial coconut flavor. The crepe was thin and crunchy. Overall a 10/10 this place was amazing! The prices are also very reasonable most things less than $10. The amount you get and the quality of it is worth every penny!“
“Small, cute little spot with an impressive selection of smoothies, as well as teas and power bowls. The server that my bro and I met, Crystal, was super friendly and welcoming.We ordered different smoothies for ourselves, our parents, and my fiancé: Oreo; plain vanilla (not on the menu, so this was a special request); s'mores; mocha frappe. All so delicious...and healthy! What was interesting to learn is that none of the smoothies are made with milk, only water and the protein powder!The consistency of the smoothies was perfect: not very thick, not watery. Crystal told us that they are meant to be meal replacements and should therefore keep one full for 2-3 hours. That was definitely the case with me - got our smoothies early afternoon, and I personally did not get my appetite back until dinner time!I enjoyed my smoothie, but I came here with the intention of getting a protein power bowl (had been craving one from the night before). So it was a bit disappointing to learn the bowls were not available because they had been sold out.Great place for a healthy treat, but my advice would be to come earlier versus before closing time, so you have a wider selection available!“
“Passed by this place so many times and finally was able to walk in. Service was great. I had so many questions and the staff was very attentive. Menu had so many great choices and will hopefully be able to try them all! If I can suggest placing the nutritional facts on the menu, I like to document my food intake for the day. Other than that my protein shake was delicious! See you again soon!“
“Amazing food :) some of the best, if not the best, Peruvian food in nyc ❤️ tastes like some of the good stuff you can find in Lima. The wait staff is so friendly and lovely. I took my friend here for the first time and he fell in love with the cuisine. You won’t be disappointed if you come here :)))) xo “
“15/10 would recommend! I ordered the red bean milk tea with boba and passionfruit tea and both were exceptionally delicious (and this is coming from someone who frequents NYC boba spots). Price point is around the same or lower than chain stores. The interior is very simple, modern looking, and clean. Owners were very friendly and nice to chat with. Come support your local businesses and show them some love! I will be back soon!!“
“Very happy to have a health food restaurant in my neighborhood. I was pleasantly surprised with my detox drinks. I get my fair serving of fruits and vegetables in a drink every week. The place is very clean and the service is good. I recommend this business. Great service and healthy food.“
“So far, 3 for 3. The 3 times I've been here, I've ordered the large peanut butter smoothie, a medium caramel frappe, and a medium strawberry, banana and papaya smoothie and although their smoothies aren't milk-based (like batidos/licuados), so far everything I've tasted here has been absolutely lovely. I would keep coming back as an alternative to the often-crowded Starbucks located in the hospital lobby, whenever I'm visiting the area. They also offer a 10 percent discount to hospital employees (of which I'm not one).“
“Came here the night before Christmas Eve because the East Meadow one had closed early. The two people working were lovely and made honestly one of the best bowls I’ve ever had! The blend was great and there were plenty of toppings! Very happy with my experience.“
“Love love love this store and I only been here 2x… the owner harry and the employee Brandon are so helpful with everything .. too much to write but he’s excellent and sooo many people came in to get their daily doses of vitamins and drinks.. he’s really good“
“I love this place the food is always so flavorful and fresh but I have never been there in person. I always order through Uber eats and I’m never disappointed however when you try to contact them it goes straight to a message and that’s not good people have food allergies so you should either have a note option or a phone that works. I have food allergies and this is a concern for me Especially when I cannot speak to someone to ensure they’re not using certain things that could be harmful.“
“Juice & Gems hands down tops my list of Black owned small businesses!! I come in once a week to purchase patties. The staff comprised of family is ALWAYS extremely kind and warm towards myself, my son and my mom. The patties are always crisped to perfection and the filling … ? chef’s kiss! There are other places I have had delicious vegan patties from but I choose to come here weekly because of their treatment. Customer service is of extreme importance to me & they’ve got that down. My only problem is that I haven’t, yet, expanded my palette to try out some of their other food options. I will and be back her to review!“
“Everything I've had here has been highly enjoyable and well executed, as far as mexican goes. Just one caveat is their prices have really hit some kind of next level high, compared to other places on LI I frequent. Bar is always friendly with people to chat. I would probably bring a girl here for lunch or something.“
“This place is just amazing! A hidden gem in Flushing.Every time that me and my bf go to flushing we go to this place. Today he decided to get the one with chocolate boba but unfortunately was sold out, he ended up getting the coconut pineapple which was so good! I always go for the mango one(it’s super delicious)We’re gonna be back for the Chocolate boba!!“
“Excellent. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. They have the best selection of loose herbs and health foods. The food in their kitchen in the back always has fresh, delicious selections. They practically always have what I need, or a comparable alternative. Their prices are reasonable.“
“The food here is beyond AMAZING. It makes turning vegan easier. BUT I must say the attitude of the cashier doesn't match the greatness of the food. I just started going there and the few times I've came She has not welcoming. Her attitude isn't good When you come in to spend your money somewhere. But the food is so good there i hope their customer service begin to match their food.“
“I love been looking for a fresh and natural juice spot close to home and I found this great spot in my neighborhood and I'm so glad I did. It always feels good to support Black-Owned businesses and this is one natural and organic juice spot worrh supporting. They have all the natural and fresh juices and smoothies freshly prepared for all your health and detox needs and it tastes absolutely delicious.“
Ice Cream Shop • $$
“The best selection of Italian-style ices. Not your typical supermarket or pizza place Italian ice. High quality product at fairly steep prices. Still, the best place to get ices in the area. There are better places for ices in Queens and Brooklyn, but this is the best place I’ve found on Long Island.“
“Woah, I've lived in RVC for basically my entire life and I somehow did not know that this place existed. Such a cute and clean place and I'm not exaggerating when I say it was the best frozen yogurt that I've ever had. The woman who helped me I assume was the owner and she was extremely friendly and helpful. They just got a new regular customer!“
“Decent little sandwich place next to Dunkin Donuts. Employees are pleasant, service is okay, sandwiches are pretty good. Parking lot in front of the store. Takeout or sit at one of the four tables inside. Nice for a change of pace.Vegetarian options: There are optionsDietary restrictions: Options existParking: Parking lot in frontKid-friendliness: Okay for kidsWheelchair accessibility: Small place but accessible“
“Food is so yummy and nourishing. We had delivery and it came exactly as ordered and a few minutes earlier than expected. Driver was very pleasant. Hardest thing is picking which item to order! Muffins, acai bowls, salads, drinks. Everything was so good and so happy we ordered today.Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten free options and non dairy“
