10/10!!! Located in a shared space with Charles Caribbean, amazing menu options and fantastic flavors that dance on your palate! Loved the vegan crab po boy and jackfruit wrap. Fries were seasoned to perfection and came out fresh and hot. The sauces are all homemade and phenomenal. Kai even brought us samples of the chickpea salad which embodied Mediterranean flavors well and tasted great. Every bite was a treat. Highly recommend to anyone and great representation for plant-powered food options!

Let me tell you .. this place is a HIDDEN GEM . I’m obsessed and I’ve only been once. First, I was exhausted when I got here and barely spoke, the owner was in the back and immediately greeted me and was so warm and friendly.
The gal at the register answered all of my questions and even went to the back when I asked about ingredients in the vegan crab cake wrap. She was patient and so sweet. She even said bye to me and wished me well as she clocked out while I waited for my food (I came real late y’all).
I got the crab cake wrap with coconut beans and sweet potato fries and I’m still thinking about it to this day. The food was not greasy, the coconut rice and beans add a sweet flavor to my crab cake wrap and Aldo the crab cake tasted like crab cake and the fries .. . I can’t wait to try everything on their menu. I couldn’t finish the wrap and warmed it up the next day and it was still 10/10.
Also, I eat very clean so my gut is extremely sensitive so when I say their food is not greasy and light to the stomach .. IT IS!

NYC Vegan – A Plant-Powered Force Awakens in Richmond ⚡
Hidden in plain sight—like a Jedi in exile—NYC Vegan quietly operates from inside Charles’ Kitchen, but don’t let the signage fool you. On my second pass, the Force guided my eyes to the NYC Vegan logo in the window… and into a most flavorful experience I ventured.
Vegan Chicken Wrap (Soy-Based)
Packed with seasoned soy chicken strips, quinoa, fresh veggies, and a dressing (several dressing choices you may choose from) that could bring balance to any meal. The whole wheat wrap held it together like a masterfully wielded lightsaber, and the seasoned fries? Crispy little sidekicks worthy of their own spin-off series.
Vegan Crab Cakes
These golden patties were a textural triumph—crispy on the outside, tender inside, and loaded with flavor that had me questioning if the ocean had been involved (spoiler: it wasn’t). Drizzled with a tangy dressing and served on a bed of greens, they were worthy of knighthood in the Vegan Order.
The Vibe, Variety & Value
The staff? Exceptionally friendly. The pricing? Incredibly fair—every dish is under $15, and portioned like a meal from the Jedi Temple cafeteria (but way tastier).
And here’s the best part:
Traveling with a mixed crew? Someone in your party craving something different? Fear not—Charles’ Kitchen’s full Caribbean cuisine menu is also available, offering options from both galaxies of flavor.
Richmond, VA 100% Vegan (NYC Vegan) | Globally Inspired | Black-Owned & Strong
⭐ Verdict:
Whether you’re a Padawan of the plant-based path or a seasoned herbivore Master, NYC Vegan/Charles’ Kitchen is worth the detour. Flavors strong with this one, they are.

This food was unbelievable! I got the crab cakes wrap and my boyfriend grabbed the chicken wrap and we were both soooo happy with our meals and al the flavors! They service was great and they gave us some plantain cake to try which was also so delicious and full of flavor. We came in hungry and left feeling elated with just how hearty and satisfying that meal was! Spoke with the owner for a while and he was so kind! It is amazing to see someone so well informed and considerate about veganism as well. Will be back for more in the near future!

Absolutely delicious from the very first bite! I ordered the jackfruit wrap with brown basmati rice, sweet potato fries, and an order of coconut rice and beans. The fries were seasoned and cooked to perfection and the rice was delicious but a little dry to my liking (not a deal breaker). The jackfruit wrap…chef’s kiss! All the ingredients complimented each other for a flavor party in my mouth. I ordered for a work event and had to go off camera to enjoy in peace! Sizably portioned as well. I only managed to eat half of the wrap and fries before being full and have plenty to share or eat later. I don’t know what the restaurant setup is like but I definitely recommend trying! 9.5/10

Incredibly delicious!! I got the jackfruit po’boy and the chocolate cashew cream cheesecake and 10/10 recommend both. Truly this was one of the best plant based meals I’ve ever had. Definitely check out this hidden gem!

I found this gem while in town for a training. I had the crab cake wrap and hand cut sweet potato fries. The food was absolutely amazing. Flavorful and fresh ingredients. It was made to order so there was a little wait but nothing crazy. It was so worth the weight. Definitely a must if you are in the area.

I was visiting the area for a basketball tournament and googled vegan restaurants and NYC Vegan came up with great reviews. I decided to give it a try. I have been vegan for 22 years and every place I travel, I always try a new vegan restaurant. This is a gem that everyone needs to visit. My falafel wrap was so delicious with a side of sweet potato fries. I will be going back before I leave the city of Richmond.

The food is decent. However, I really wish that they allowed sides to go with some of the other dishes that aren’t listed under entrees. I wanted to order the crab cakes and I wanted a side of fries but they told me that they aren’t able to do this. There is no way to order a side unless you order an entree first. Some of their best dishes are not technically entrees so you can’t get any sides with those.

We stopped in here late on a Friday night for a quick bite. We were warmly welcomed and the service was so friendly. The food was fresh and delicious. Seasoned fries were so good as well as the ChickUn sandwich and the chocolate cheezecake. Everything was so clean as well. We look forward to eating here again in the future when we are in the area.
