Nothing fancy, but I like their food for the purposes of a quick bite. I've had their flank steak and salmon options, both of which are decent. Even the small plate gives you a decent portion; there doesn't appear to be a big difference between the small and large, so I would opt for the small. I like the fact that they have brown rice as a standard and they have a good variety of sides to choose from. Lines appear long but it moves quickly (reminds me of a healthier Chipotle). A decent option for a quick lunch if you're in the area, although I wouldn't make a special trip here. read more

was a great stop with friends! i got the kale base with carrots and sweet potatoes. everything was seasoned perfectly! it was so quick and convenient! read more

This place is so UWS (or at least what it has become). This is a fast casual place that serves lots of healthy veggies and proteins (think the hot bar at Whole Foods but fresher and better). You can get a bowl or a soup (I got the bowl). Shockingly, the Columbia University area was missing this type of place until this place opened up a few years ago. Protein choices range from chicken, steak and meatballs. Where this place shines is the veggie sides. Sicilian cauliflower, kale with curry, brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes, you name it, they have it. Flavors here are bold, portions generous and prices reasonable (about 10 bucks give or take). Seating here is really tight so be prepared to either squeeze or take it to go. read more

Absolutely fantastic food. I love the concept and the execution was great. Moves like a Chipotle line (super fast service), tastes like fine dining. Has this great, open, fresh ambience. Think wood furniture and lots of daylight. I also loved their book selection - I was perusing their copy of Pollan before my friends arrived. I ordered the grilled salmon with sweet potatoes and their seasonal veggies. The salmon was delicious and grilled to perfection. It was topped with this lovely green sauce (peas, maybe?) and sat on a bed of some type of savory grains that was also amazingly flavored and soft in texture. The sweet potatoes were roasted so nicely - slightly crispy on the outside, melt-in-your-mouth smooth on the inside. And the seasonal veggies (spinach and some other veggies) were fantastic. Flavoring was so nice and clean. Nothing was bland or boring. I was so impressed. Also had their vanilla mint tea, which was delicious and refreshing. Cannot recommend this place enough. You literally feel so healthy and good about yourself after you eat here (successful marketing or just damn good food?). I'm definitely coming back. read more

I love the food but a new "NO CASH" Policy makes me not want to eat here! This policy assures they will never serve a single meal to a poor person again! This type of corporate control just continues to oppress those who are not privileged enough to be able to charge their $12 lunch. Shame on you Dig Inn! P.S. if you cut the veg. smaller and more consistent size they will cook more evenly. read more

Recent visits to Dig Inn Market have been very disappointing for several key reasons; 1) Price - The price for a market salmon plate with Mac N' Cheese side approaches $15. In my hometown $15 will get you a cheap sit down meal with table service. For fast casual, non table service food in a style similar to Chipotle, $8-10 should be the norm. While I understand Manhattan is an expensive real estate market, prices are just too high to justify anymore. 2) Quality - the food is not as tasty as I remember it. I noticed a change in the quality of the steak. The salmon is often overdone. In fact, I've been there several times when the food was flat out cold. Although I listed these criticisms, I do commend the chain for trying to be the first true healthy fast casual restaurant. Their goal is commendable. However, as prices increase and quality decreases, it is becoming hard to justify a $13-15 take out dinner. I'd rather save up for a nice meal out with friends. read more

Not sure if they are under new management or not, but the protein portions are way down. I have had to ask for more, and have now been charged extra. I almost wanted to take a picture of the original amount of protein given to me to post here. I will not be coming back here, because you are not getting a $20 salad. Spend your money better elsewhere (there are even similar competitors in the area.) Really upset with the portion changes. Greedy management. read more

The food here is so amazing!! It's like a home cooked meal and it's so clean so it makes you feel super healthy. Every time I come here the staff is incredibly genuinely nice people. At tonight's visit I was generously helped out by an amazing crew. To begin I was greeted by the shift supervisor (I was told) Tiffany! She was very friendly! I was with a friend that had never been to a Dig Inn before and she helped by talking her through the whole process! Then taking my order was Dan! He was so sweet! And finally when I got to the register there to help my was Anna! She was super fun! I love this place! Especially this location! The food is incredible and the staff is awesome! Thank you guys!! read more

Dig Inn - Super yummy! - New American Near Me - New York, New York

Decor is very Malibu meets Brooklyn. Love the all white and touches of wood accents and marble counters to give a high end feel. Seating is mainly bar height. Made to grab something quick and eat amongst strangers. Outside seating and one stokke high chair. It is gorgeous but yes there is only one. Food concept is farm to table but fast and convenient. Fresh seasonal produce and lightly seasoned and cooked perfectly. They have amazing sauces. Get the homemade Sriracha sauce and the tofu and garlic aioli. Lost one star because of the over cooked chicken. But all in all I look forward to coming here again. Did I mention I'm addicted to their oatmeal chocolate chip cookie with flax seeds and carrot shreds. **side not. I am not a health freak at all. I love my food and love the taste of real food. But everything here is healthy but tasty so I'm super happy. It inspired me to cook more and feed my kids healthier yummier things read more

I love Dig Inn for the quality and taste of its food, and at such a low price! Also, the staff here is AMAZING and so friendly! However, the AC in this location is brohas left the building unbearably hot, and uncomfortable to sit in. Additionally, it is annoying that they stop making food before closing time, leaving the customers in the last hour to pick from the meager choices left from the day. I used to come to this location around 3 times a week but I've started going next store to Junzi Kitchen because of this! read more

Awesome food in a quaint space. Some outside dining area. Farm to table foods cooked delightfully for any palate. Don't come warning a soda....if it's got chemicals it won't be here which I . I would eat here everyday if I lived here. read more

This is by far my favorite lunch spot by work. Food is always hot and fresh and the workers are super friendly. You can order a salad bowl or a lunch Plate with a meat, 2 sides and a grain. The salmon is amazing, make sure you get the pesto on it! The Mac costs a little extra but is worth it. There are other locations throughout the city but they don't all carry the same stuff so make sure to check first. read more

The food is fantastic. Echoing everyone below: food is well made, delicious, and fresh. The selection is also unique, you can't find dishes like this anywhere else in the neighborhood. The price is on the high side, but nothing out of the ordinary for this type of restaurant. Think around $10-15 for a dish with sides, $8ish juices, etc. Service is friendly and fast. Seating is a little sparse though, and runs out quickly at peak meal times. Probably not a place I'd (or my wallet would) eat at every week, but still a fun, hip, and healthy place to take visiting friends or family. read more

Yumm.This place is organized like your average Chipotle store, where people mostly get the plates that comes with one entree and two sides. The decor is also pretty metallic and contemporary, spaces are a bit crammed, but there are usually enough seats. Walking in from the outside, you can already smell the delightful aromas. When I ordered, though, they were short on the chicken and fish so I had to wait for 10 minutes. However, the wait was worth it. The salmon dish I got was probably one of the best salmon with a tomato-based sauce. Portions here are for you to maintain a healthy weight, so there is not too much, but you are left content. The two side dishes I ordered were less memorable. I recommend the heated side dishes as my kale salad was more appetizing than my ratatouille. Healthy and tasty - 4 stars! read more

The food's surprisingly flavorful without trying too hard. The set up, on the other hand, needs serious attention by an efficiency expert versed in food delivery. Everything they did behind the counter was inefficient, which made the service too slow. Combine that with staff mumbling at customers in a noisy space with a plastic partition and it's impossible to communicate to get in and out of there. No one's happy to have to work and I don't expect obsequiousness but the folks behind the counter could use some customer service re-training. I may try the order ahead online option but I'm not hopeful. read more

The food I'm generally a fan of. I like their flank steak (really good!) and meatballs. Their warm side dishes are all pretty good (especially the Mac and cheese) and as far as cold I would recommend the spinach and mango salad. Great dressing in it. I'd stay away from the lentils (way too much celery but I'm not a fan of celery.) Really close to main campus Columbia (whenever you have to take Butler library break.) The entrance is between the tables they placed outside. It's a weird set up they have between the entrance and the exit. They have a rest room. Staff is apathetic but get the job done. Pretty solid option in the neighborhood- gives you variety, good portions, and mostly healthy! read more

One of the 'trendy healthy but also super expensive' places millennials like. I think it's good, but it just can be bland sometimes. It's good for when you miss mom's food (even if she doesn't make any of these western dishes), and it's one of the only places in morningside that sell straight up, well cooked seasoned veggies. Just slightly bland... mixing in the garlic sauce with the rice has helped fix that for me though! read more

Pretty hipster place where you can create your own healthy bowls. You can choose a base of brown rice or salad, two sides (a variety of veggies, sweet potatoes, mac and cheese), and a protein. You can split one of the sides once so you can actually get 3 sides. My first time here and I got brown rice, seasonal veggies (squash), broccoli, mac and cheese, and chicken. Pretty good combo and you feel pretty full and healthy after eating it all. Everything was pretty good. The mac and cheese could use a bit more seasoning. A little pricey but the portions are large for what you pay for. read more

Dig Inn is one of my go-to spots when I'm trying to be healthy. This was my first time ordering take out. They messed up my order (sad face) but the food was still as good and flavorful as ever, and they made amends for forgetting part of my order. As many things in New York (and just healthy things in general) it's on the pricey side but it never disappoints. read more

I've been dying to try this place for quite some time now. However, it didn't quite live up to my expectations . For the bowls, you get to choose one base, one protein, and two sides. I got the steak bowl with one extra meatball. The steak was dry and sad. The meatball was just ok. Quinoa (my base) was good. Sweet potatoes were bland. Broccoli was not cooked long enough and had huge long bitter stalks. If you ask me, I'll tell you to "dig inn" somewhere else for lunch. read more

Can't stop eating here now that I've discovered this place! Perfect for a quick warm healthy meal and love that the menu is always changing.

The food was still good but the ambience was disappointing compared to the West 152nd Street location.

I am visiting NYC this week and I really enjoyed eating at Dig Inn. All of the food comes from local farmers. I love that because all of the food is fresh and healthy. You create your own bowl based on the selections they have and it's so flavorful, I did not really need any sort of dressing. One.of my son's and I had a chicken bowl but we picked different sides, my other son had the salmon and let me tell you..it was cooked to perfection. Best of all, the prices were very reasonable and the portions could satisfy the most hearty eaters. This place is all simple in decor, and you seat yourself so do not expect anything fancy. I do not have any complaints other than I wish we had one of these in Raleigh, NC!! read more

amazing service, delicious food and super kind staff!! highly reccomend. awesome addition to the UWS!

I came on Saturday August 4th around 6:45-7pm The staff was amazing First a lady great me with a nice smile and warm words. Then they were very helpful while I was uncertain about what I wanted The gentleman at the register was super courteous and friendly. So great to see that in the area Thanks to them read more

Dig Inn is hands-down my favorite quick, casual eatery near Columbia University. There are many healthy and delicious options. I sometimes come here for both lunch and dinner if I'm feeling lazy. The only complaint I have about this specific location is the service. The staff who serve the food do not always treat the customers with respect. Often times I'll ask what one of the side dishes is and they'll roll their eyes and give me a terse, brusque answer. I would not have to ask if there were labels/ signs by all the food options. Overall, I would recommend coming here if you are pressed for time and need a quick, but healthy and yummy meal. read more

A great choice for a healthy & clean lunch or dinner to go. I usually get the Hot Honey Chicken. Never been let down.

I placed an online order for pickup this week, and when I got there, I found that none of the workers were wearing masks - not the servers up front or the kitchen staff in back. So weird and irresponsible. I definitely won't be returning unless this changes. They were also ~15 min late in making my order & had several other people waiting for their late pickup orders, but I don't care about that nearly as much as I do the masks. read more
