Best American Restaurant in Upper East Side, New York

My husband and I love coming here every time we get a chance. The food is absolutely delicious—always. I love the Japanese dumplings and all the seitan dishes; the portions are very generous, so go prepared to have a feast. I want to highlight also how charming and kind the owner is. She’s a delightful lady with a great knowledge of what food service means. And, if you like old jazz, she always has the best jazz music playing.

Highly recommend!! Everything was so good we forgot to take photos until dessert. The top star has to go to the Oreo milkshake. Everyone including non vegans will love it. In terms of food, we tried the vegan honey garlic BBQ wings, sesame medallions, the vegan quinoa taco bowl, the carrot apple walnut cake. All were so good, filling, and flavorful! The atmosphere is intimate and the service was amazing and so friendly. What an amazing spot! Will be coming back again!

A real find. Loved the food and veggie/ vegan options. Not to be confused with the old Sam Beckett show Quantum leap 😆 apparently the name stems (pardon the pun) plants 🤔 I had the most extensive impossible (plant) burger with portobello mushroom and habanero seat chilli sauce and deposited artichoke hearts 😋 the chicken wrap and dumplings were also great! washed down with a jam glass of mauntok ipa (excuse my spelling)

This place might turn me vegan. Healthy but impossibly hearty flavors. Reasonable prices and empathetic service. Quinoa burger - the patty was made out of quinoa (didn’t care for the black beans) with fresh veggies, melted cheese and amazing sauce. Very filling but felt very healthy. Chicken burger - the patty did taste like chicken, but a cleaner more flavorful version. Not too crowded during a weekday lunch though there is a steady stream of customers. Lunch set is good value and comes…

An absolute vegan treasure ♥️ I loved this place and kept coming back until the end of my trip. I wish my city had as many vegetarian options as this place does (eight pages of menu items, plus a lunch menu, a brunch menu, and a menu of beverages and desserts). The staff is super friendly, and the atmosphere is great. The food was unbelievably tasty. Even my non-vegetarian friend was astonished by how good the food was. I hope to come back soon.
