I can’t adequately express how much I love this restaurant in a review. It’s some of the best vegan food I’ve ever had. Each dish is not only top-tier delicious but very affordably priced, quality considered. I found the Seitan BBQ Ribs to be especially impressive as someone who converted to vegan eating later in life: stellar texture and flavor.
Every single thing on this menu is a winner. Nadine always takes great care of customers both eating in and taking out.

Jersey doesn’t have a lot of fully vegan restaurants and those open for dinner are even fewer. Still – Kaya’s Kitchen is a high quality vegan restaurant not to be missed, if you enjoy plant-based food. My partner and I love breakfast food at all hours so were very glad they serve breakfast all day. We each had a vegan take on the Jersey pork roll. It was absolutely delicious and the home fries were cooked nicely as well. I had a delicious, earthy fresh juice – Jungle Boost. Desserts were tasty too, though I felt like my Tiramisu could have used a little more coffee flavor. The cream was one of the best vegan creams I’ve ever had. There are some gluten free dessert options too. The staff was extremely friendly and good vibes all around. I will be frequenting this restaurant a lot in future. Looks like they do a lot of takeout as well, if you don’t have time to sit and enjoy in the restaurant.

First, this is an all vegan restaurant, so this review is based on vegan food, not “is this the same as full menu restaurant”. That being said, the food here is fantastic (with the only negative being the ‘chicken’ fingers.). The tofu, saitan, mushroom, and vegetable dishes are great. Nice vibes, we had live music on a Friday night. Attentive staff. Daily specials.

Its hard to find total vegan so it was refreshing to be able to order anything. Worth the drive. Stew on mashed potatoes was delicious. Got french toast, hoagie, and chili for take home. All were fantastic. Will go back.

BELMAR: Kaya’s Kitchen is a beloved, long-standing vegan spot in the heart of downtown, offering an extensive menu of breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even catering. We grabbed their “Thanksgiving Feast for One” this holiday, and it was incredible: three different proteins, all the classic fixings, and a slice of pumpkin pie to finish off the perfect meal.
They usually have a couple of outdoor tables available for dog-friendly dining when the weather is nice. Be sure to give them a follow to stay updated on specials and events!

I’m always hesitant to give vegan restaurants anything less than 4 stars, but this was really not up to snuff. We got the lion of Judah bowl, the BBQ ribs and a cannoli.
The lion of Judah bowl was so-so. Dry-ish chickpeas and dry lentil loaf. Occasional pleasant pops of ginger and allspice, but the sauce was boring and slightly too sweet.
The Seitan BBQ ribs were too chewy for my tastes. Ribs should be tender and fall-apart. The dough would be better amended with some tofu or chickpea flour to introduce some tenderness to the gluten.
The BBQ sauce on the ribs, however, was phenomenal! The perfect blend of sweet and savory with a mild black pepper undertone.
We also got Pierogies, the sauce was flavorful! Like a beefy broth with onions. The Pierogies and filling themselves were simple, soft potatoey, and mild, but the sauce definitely pulled its weight.
The Cannoli was disappointing. Having sat in the fridge premade, the shell & chocolate chips got totally soggy (and the filling was weirdly grainy) pass on this one unless you can get one fresh. (And I don’t know, if the graininess of the filling was because of cold coconut oil, maybe leave it to sit at room temp? But then you may encounter sogginess. There may just be no winning in this situation.)
We sat outside, and the counter person was super friendly and accommodating.
I’d be willing to give them another try. Maybe we just chose the wrong things.

This restaurant is absolutely amazing. We came here a few years ago and kept wanting to come back and finally did for our ten year anniversary together. The service is phenomenal and extremely pleasant. The food is the best for any kind of food, let alone vegan. My fiancé is vegetarian and this is obviously her favorite place. The seitan stroganoff was insanely amazing. The buffalo tempeh was outstanding and the cucumber ranch dressing with it is the best pairing I never had before. I didn’t get to try her Reuben sandwich but she said it was incredible. The chocolate peanut butter bomb cake was excellent. The potato salad is the best I’ve ever had anywhere in history and I’ve been to more parties and tried more potato salad than I could remember but this was the best ever and so good we brought a side home. If you are vegetarian/vegan and haven’t been here, you’re really missing out. Also, being a byob makes it perfect. Definitely one of our favorite restaurants ever. Creative perfection is the best way to describe this place.

Great food. Long overdue review! We are grateful to live near by a vegan spot offering such a big menu.
The buffalo cauliflower is hands down my favorite. I always get it when we come. ( it’s GF) The house made sauce it comes with is so delicious and refreshing I could drink it.
I got the corn fritter special today and it was so YUMMY ( also GF) and a big portion. My husband loves the black bean burger or eggplant pesto sandwich. We love the FF. Just wish they came more crispy/well done.
It’s a great spot with great food
