Friendly and welcoming service. Absolutely delicious food and chill vibe. My top two faves was the Korean bbq and the choke pizza. Also you won’t regret saving a little room for dessert! We went for a plain chocolate tahini chip and vanilla ice cream and it was Devine! Also, reasonable prices. We’ll be back!

Delicious, hip vegan eatery in the heart of Chelsea. The portions are large, the prices are fair. Everything is 100% vegan. The menu has a broad range of options and they always offer interesting specials. They also have a full mocktail menu if you aren’t into alcohol. Definitely a great place to stop by if you’re in the area!

I thoroughly enjoyed the decor and atmosphere here. My friend and I were immediately welcomed upon entry and directed to the seating area by the host. Our waitress went over the soup of the day with us and answered any questions we had about the menu.
My friend and I opted for shareable dishes which was enough to split/share between the two of us. The food was absolutely delicious. We wanted something light but nourishing and UVK did just that !. The food presentation was good as were the beverages we had. 10/10

Good food, healthy, all Vegan, good service, reasonable prices, enjoyed the music. Able to have a conversation.
I got a gluten free burrito bowl, filling and supportive high protein meal.
We had a cauliflower appetizer with dipping sauce. Also, potato leek soup was enjoyed.
We were so full, we could not consider dessert.
See the pictures and video.
Can I get a ❤️?

The vibe inside was artsy, welcoming, and fun. We were greeted upon entering. Immediate pluses!!
Food was delicious. I ordered the Golden Era Chick-un & Waffles and my partner ordered something I forgot the name of, but it was a faux salmon sandwich I believe. I also ordered a drink which may have been the espresso yourself. Either way, we enjoyed our food and drinks.
Would definitely visit again!
*Another thing I appreciated was the attention to allergies. We were asked about allergies when we were placing our orders.

I ordered the salmon pasta to go. Interesting enough, the pasta actually tasted better when it was room temp-cold. Hot-warm, the sauce was a little weird. Not bad, but different. The salmon was amazing. I had to double back to make sure it wasn’t real. For the size of the takeout container though, definitely not worth 30$ though. Either increase take out portion or decrease the price. I’m sure most of the price is coming from this fancy vegan salmon, but 30$, while affordable for me, is kinda insane given the size of the container.

Was in NY to catch a play at the Shed so walked over here afterwards for lunch. The interior decorations definitely make you feel like you are in an urban city. The music is also adds to the ambiance.
They have a good sized menu with many sub menus that show gluten free items, soy free items and garlic and onion free items.
I ordered the gf coconut shrimp, the mushroom asada and the respect your elders mocktail.
The food was tasty. The konjac shrimp are hard to find so generally when I see them on a menu I order them. I did hesitate a bit as I’m not a fan of coconut. Luckily for me I didn’t taste any coconut on the shrimp.
The mushroom asada, while delicious, it didn’t give me the flavors of steak. I think a portobello would have done a better job. I ate it all though. Just mentioning in terms of what your taste buds should expect.
The respect your elders mocktail was yummy.

This place features a unique style atmosphere. Sort of gothic/punk vibe. The service is not very good. One waiter was very polite and professional, while the other waiter was not nice/. She wouldn’t let us sit in the party of 4 table because we were a party of 2 and wanted the extra space, even though we were the first customers in and the restaurant was empty. Other than that, the food was below average. I ordered french toast and my uncle ordered the burrito, which he did not enjoy. The music was a little on the loud side. Some things on the positive side were that the 2nd waiter was very polite and professional.

Had an amazing vegan BLT sandwich. It was so so yummy – I think of it fondly. My partner had the breakfast platter with scramble and potatoes and the tempeh bacon. The tempeh bacon is so good, homemade bread is delicious and potatoes were very well seasoned. Overall loved it, wish I had more time to go again but short visit!
